What are regional Pokémon?
Regional Pokémon are special creatures that can only be found in specific regions of the world. To catch them, players often need to travel to different countries or continents. This feature not only adds excitement to the game but also fosters a sense of community among players with shared interests.
Creating a comprehensive Pokémon GO regional map is challenging due to the vast number of creatures and their diverse habitats. Instead, we've organized them by their chronological appearance in the series for your convenience.
