What are Regional Pokémon?

Regional Pokémon are creatures tied to specific geographic locations. Catching them often requires international travel, fostering a global community among players with shared interests.

Due to the sheer number of regional Pokémon and their diverse habitats, a comprehensive map is impractical. This guide organizes them chronologically by generation for easier navigation.

Generation One

Generation One Pokémon are relatively widespread, often found in populated areas like shopping centers and movie theaters.

Generation Two

Generation Two Pokémon inhabit less common locations. Heracross is easier to find than Corsola, which requires specific environmental conditions.

Generation Three

Generation Three Pokémon are globally distributed, requiring extensive travel for complete collection. Many are found in North and South America, and generally don't require specific environmental conditions.

Generation Four

While smaller than Generation Three, Generation Four still offers exciting finds. Many are concentrated in Europe, often in populated areas.

Generation Five

Generation Five Pokémon inhabit diverse locations, including Egypt and Greece. This generation features a variety of types and habitats.

Generation Six

Generation Six features fewer Pokémon than Generation Five, with a wide geographic distribution. Choose your target and plan your journey!

Generation Seven

Generation Seven Pokémon are widely distributed across the globe, making them accessible during almost any international trip.
