Pokemon fans can grab the most recent official Pocket Guide Box Set for only $20 at Amazon right now. The massive two-volume paperback box set was published last September and is essentially a Pokedex you can flip through with nearly 900 Pokemon.
Pokemon: The Complete Pocket Guide Box Set (2 Books)
$20.80 (was $29)
With over 1,100 pages combined, these two books contain data on 898 Pokemon (out of 1,025 total). This includes descriptions, stats, abilities, movies, and evolutions for the critters.
Each Pokedex entry is accompanied by full illustrations. Volume 1 covers Pokedex entries No. 1 through 442, and Volume 2 ranges from No. 443 through 898. Unfortunately, you won’t find entries for Paldea region Pokemon introduced in Scarlet and Violet, but it’s otherwise comprehensive.
Viz Media designed the books to be compact to make it easy to carry them around with you, just like a Pokedex. Both books are 4.1 x 1.4 x 5.75 inches and have roughly the same page counts (560 and 552 pages).
Both volumes are also available to purchase separately, but you’ll miss out on the slipcase and pay about five bucks more at the moment. Volume 1 was published last April and is $13.49 (was $15); Volume 2 arrived one month later and is slightly cheaper at $12.60 (was $15).
