Really awesome
Awesome you can look at every single Pokémon. It doesn’t go up to the newest ones, but it has almost all of the Pokémon will be useful for the game, cause it teaches you all the typings and stuff. If you wanna play all the games it’s awesome. You can also learn about a bunch more Pokémon like one wormhole Pokémon perfect for kids or adults who love Pokémon

Covers up to Gen 9 Scarlet and Violet era
This book certainly lives up to its title. It's indeed a super duper essential encyclopedia handbook of all the Pokemon up to this current ninth gen (minus Legends ZA). The way that it's laid out and organized is so helpful. I can't pinpoint when I first started to lose track of all the Pokemon in existence. It must have happened without me realizing it, but it was inevitable now that there are over a thousand Pokemon. And even though I've never stopped playing every Pokemon main series game since the start, I must not have been paying attention in my play-throughs of the recent games, because somebody tell me why it is that I was flipping through this book discovering all sorts of Pokemon (Brambleghast?? Huh?). It would have been nice had the book included which game the Pokemon originated in for some helpful context. I really appreciate that this book included all the different regional and battle forms that have been introduced across the generations. It is so hard to keep track these days, especially if you aren't purchasing the DLC content of the newer games and are now discovering so many variations or mega-evolutions and what not that you didn't know existed. It's a shame this book will be outdated in a year's time when Pokemon Winds and Waves is released in 2027, but while we're in this lull between generations, I'm glad to have this book to re-familiarize myself on all the Pokemon. It's also so nice having something physical and offline. There are times I want to look up a Pokemon without having to deal with embedded website ads and pop-ups. If this book had included Pokemon battle stats or movesets, this would have been a 10/10 product. But as is, I can't fault it for much.

For Pokemon Fans!
This has quickly become my Pokemon-obsessed 7 year old's favorite book; he looks at it all the time and tells me random facts he's learned from it. It's basically a dictionary of Pokemon characters with stats, characteristics and evolution information. I agree with others that the pages are thinner than many books, like pages in a magazine. For us it has held up to rough use over several months pretty well, with just some curling at the corners, which I think is reasonable for the price paid and large number of pages.

It’s great
It’s very complete. It’s awesome. My son has, however, discovered some mistakes in the categories ascribed to the pokemon.

Paper Pokédex
Book did not arrive in perfect condition, but it’s being handled by a child in the end. It is essentially a giant Pokédex. One strange omission was Castform’s weather forms. My kid takes it everywhere and I have to read 7 pages of entries to him when I put him to bed. So beware.
