While Kantonian and Galarian Meowth are both Meowth, they are different Pokemon, have different types and appearances, and evolve into different Pokemon.īut, Vivillon and Shellos both have different forms based on where they are caught (Vivillon in the real world, Shellos in the in-game world), and these forms don't count as regional variants (just design differences). One final caveat is that not every Pokemon is available in every game, so depending on which game you're playing (and when!), the total will be a different number.Īnother wrinkle is regional variants. These don't technically count as different Pokemon, but they can often function as such. However, many Pokemon have different forms, regional variants, Mega Evolutions, Gigantamax forms, and more. The official total at the time of writing, between Pokemon Scarlet & Violet's debut and our early preview footage of its DLCs, is 1013. RELATED: Pokemon GO: The Best Pokemon Of Every Type If you want to talk about how many Pokemon designs exist - for example, Kantonian Vulpix versus Alolan Vulpix - the answer is much different. However, those who have spent enough time with Pokemon games, anime, manga, trading cards, and any other element of the franchise might know that it's a bit more complicated, depending on how you want to answer the question.
To an outsider, the question "How many Pokemon are there?" seems like it should be a simple one.
