List of Pokmon by name

From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

This is an alphabetical list of Pokémon by their English language names. No Japanese romaji are included in this list; therefore, any new Pokémon with unknown English names will not be found here. This is also the list order that is seen by the player in Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD in the Strategy Memo (minus Pokémon introduced after Generation III).
