How many Pokemon are there?
How many Pokemon are there is not one of the most frequently asked questions? It is also one of the most challenging answers.
The recently introduced Pokemon Zarde is # 893, which is the most straightforward answer.
However, Calyrex and two new Regis (Regieleki and Regidrago) will be 894, 895, and 896 when released on the Crown Tundra DLC.
However, the 36 regional shapes of 35 different Pokemon (there are two in Meowth) complicate the answer.
Do they count as their seeds? If so, it adds up to 932. Mega Evolution is a measurement of a different Pokemon, its Pokedex entry, for 980.
However, the current official tally is 893.
If the series has existed in different media types for over 20 years, it will inevitably prompt a series of questions that always come up.
With countless games, multiple TV series, movies, collectible card games, manga series, merchandise, toys, and more, it’s virtually impossible to know everything about the world of Pokemon.
How many Pokémon in total are there?
Since the release of Pokemon Red and Blue 21 years ago, the number of Pokemon of the original 151 has grown significantly.
Pokémon have groups by generation.
Each generation introduces a new set of Pokémon abilities and moves. The total age is 8, and each has a new Pokémon added to the roster.
At the time of Pokemon Sword and Shield’s launch, there were a total of 890.
There are also Galarian and Arora forms, which National Dex added up to 921.
By counting the gender forms, appearances, differences, and alternate forms and types of all Pokemon, you will quickly get a total of over 1000 Pokemon.
However, the total number continues to increase over time from generation to generation. It starts with the age introduced in 199.6. Until the latest (Generation VII), the detailed guide is as follows.
1. Generation I (1996-1998) released 151 species
Known among older fans as Color Generation or Chromatic Generation for the released version, the 1st generation Pokemon game is the first set of 4 games released.
2. Generation II (1999-2001) has released 100 species
Gen II has begun the series’s expansion-driven nature, introducing the world to 100 new Pokemon.
That does not exist and is not available in Gen I games and the new Johto region.
And also, many of these Pokemon extend the old Pokemon family’s Evolution, but most of them are brand new evolutionary families.
3. Generation III (2002-2005) released 135 species
The Advanced Generation is the third game set released and refer as the “reset” of the series.
Moreover, Gen III broke the ongoing storyline established as the Gen I and Gen II and instead chose to move players to the Hoenn region, an island region separated from Kanto and Joto.
4. Generation IV (2006-2009) released 107 species
Like its predecessor, Generation IV is central through three games from the Nintendo DS Pokemon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum region, released in 2006 and 2008 (and 2007 and 2009 outside Japan).
5. Generation V (2010-2012) released 156 species
Generation V games can communicate with Generation IV games in the same way that Generation IV games can sound with Generation III games.
However, it allows players to transfer it in the same way as Pal Park. Pokémon caught in the Generation III game can upgrade to Generation V through the Generation IV game.
6. Generation VI (2013-2015) released 72 species
The 6th Generation, on January 8, 2013 announces Pokemon X and Y,
These games were released internationally in October of the same year. The Thai-in animated series began airing a week later.
However, Pokemon X and Y continued the established tradition of two-pair games, with slight differences between the two versions.
7. Generation VII (2016-2018) released 86 species
Basically, the 7th Generation Announces the 20th Anniversary announced by Pokemon Sun & Moon on February 27, 2016.
However, the games were released worldwide on November 18, 2016, except for Europe, on November 23, 2016.
