| At the core of the multi-billion dollar '']'' ] of ], ], ], ] and other media created by ] are 493 distinctive fictional species classified as the titular Pokémon. These creatures and entities reside throughout the various regions of the fictional Pokémon world and can be caught by humans designated as ]s, and Trainers use Pokémon for a variety of purposes, such as being pets and loyal companions and/or being pitted against other trained Pokémon in competitive Pokémon battles. Pokémon are potentially powerful and magical creatures that can employ a variety of talents such as ], ], ], and so on. Through age and experience, many species undergo ], a metamorphosic process that transforms a Pokémon into a similar but stronger specie. | |||
| This is a selected listing of twenty of the Pokémon species, arranged as they are in the main game series' ]. | |||

| {{nihongo|'''Corsola'''|サニーゴ|Sanīgo|'''Sunnygo''' in original ] versions}} is composed of a pink ]-like substance. It has a small face and a white underbelly. In addition to the coral outgrowths (also described as branches) situated all over the upper half of its body, Corsola also has a growth like a horn on its head, and that is considered its natural armament when facing underwater predators. The branches serve to supply Corsola with nutrients by absorbing them from wherever there is clean water. The branches are amazingly expendable; if any branch breaks off, Corsola can grow it back over the period of one night (compare with ]). However, this fragility is undermined by Corsola’s inability to live in polluted water. If the sea is polluted, Corsola’s branches become discolored and soon crumble away, where soon after the Pokémon will die. Corsola prefers to live wherever the seas are warm, so is a common sight near the shorelines whenever the Summer season befalls a region. | |||
| In the Pokémon anime, ] caught a Corsola in the episode ''A Corsola Caper'', and has owned it ever since. It almost immediately became Misty's primary battling Pokémon, displaying surprisingly strong offensive abilities (in one case, knocking out a ] with a single attack) in addition to the defensive power for which the species is best known. he likes pink candy | |||

| {{nihongo|'''Remoraid'''|テッポウオ||'''Teppouo''' in original ] versions}} is a ]-based suckerfish that scavenges for food and has a somewhat ] relationship with ]. Remoraid will attach itself to the underbelly of Mantine with its ], eating scraps of food that Mantine drops as well as the parasites on them that causes them to itch. In turn, the Mantine helps defend the Remoraid from enemies. When not scavenging for food, Remoraid will strike down its own prey with precise accuracy using fast streams of airborne water, which Remoraid shoots from its mouth using abdominal muscles. Remoraid can move faster through the water by blasting water from its mouth in the opposite direction of where it intends to move. It can use this ability to escape from large foes which it doesn't intend to eat. | |||

| {{nihongo|'''Octillery'''|オクタン|Okutan|'''Okutan''' in original ] versions}} resembles a combination of an ] and a ]. This is reflected in its abilities, including squirting ] as a means of self-defense. Also, like ], Octillery can move about by squirting pressurized water from its mouth. Octillery is a ]; they catch fish with their tentacles, and kill (and afterwards eat) it by smashing the rocky protrusions on its head into its opponent's skull. Octillery is a ]ing creature, in that it sleeps in burrows it prepares; however, its nests are temporary structures only, and it rarely uses the same nest two nights in a row. | |||

| {{nihongo|'''Delibird'''|デリバード||''Deribādo'' in original ] versions}} resembles the ], or possibly a ]. It has red and white plumage and is always pictured carrying a sack with it, giving it a ]-like impression, although one of its Pokédex entries suggests that the "sack" is actually its tail. Delibird is said to make its home at the edge of steep cliffs. It spends all day searching for food, which it stores in its sack/tail and brings back to its chicks. Delibird are known to save the lives of many lost and starved mountaineers by sharing their food with them. | |||
| On the other hand, a Delibird under attack will fling its stored food at the opponent as a projectile weapon. This is perhaps the basis for its signature attack, ''Present'', which is an attack only Delibird can learn, as well as the ''only'' attack Delibird can learn naturally (through ]). In the video games, Delibird is a relatively rare Pokémon; it appears in icy caves, during swarms in ''Pokémon Diamond'' and ''Pearl'', and as a Shadow Pokémon in '']''. | |||
| Delibird's anime debut was in the episode "Dues and Don'ts," in which a Delibird belonging to ] follows Jessie, James, and Meowth around under orders to collect the enormous debt the three have amassed during the years with constant requests for Pokémon-shaped ]s and other devices. This Delibird appears in several episodes in the series set in ]. Another Delibird, a helper of Santa Claus, appeared in "Delibird's Present," an episode of the ''Pikachu's Winter Vacation 3'' holiday special also shown as part of '']''. | |||

| {{nihongo|'''Mantine'''|マンタイン||'''Mantain''' in original ] versions}} is a dark blue ] with two large wings branching off its body. It is often depicted having a ] attached to its side eating Mantine's leftovers. In the anime, Mantine protects Remoraid's ], while the parent Remoraid help the Mantine in tough decisions. Mantine swims in open sea, participating in ]s. Its large and well-developed wings enable it to briefly leap over the sea's surface if it builds up enough speed, in a manner similar to some real aquatic species. Mantine is a filter feeder, like ]s; its diet consists of most things that happen to enter its mouth while swimming. | |||

Its bones are hollow, allowing it to fly up to 190 miles per hour in the sky. Skarmory raises its offspring in ] bushes, the thorny enviroment causing the offspring's bodies to become more resistant. Skarmory's wings become battered from repeated battles, so it grows the feathers back to the original state once a year. Feathers from Skarmory have been used by people of the past as ]s and ]s. | |||

Individual members of the pack approach the intended target from different spots and begin the hunt. They then communicate their location to each other using special ]s, ensuring that the victim is eventually surrounded and unable to escape. | |||

| {{nihongo|'''Porygon2'''|ポリゴン2||''Porigon Tsū'' in original ] versions|}} is an improved version of its pre-evolution ]. It has enhanced abilities, including increased potency in combat. As opposed to most evolved Pokémon, Porygon2 is shorter and lighter than Porygon. Its artificial intelligence has been developed to such a degree as to give it the capacity to learn on its own from its surroundings and experiences. This results in Porygon2 occasionally exhibiting behavior or motions that were not included in its original programming. Porygon2 was originally intended to be used as a space probe. Unfortunately, since it cannot fly, such an application has been abandoned. Silph Co. seems to have fixed that problem in ''Pokémon Diamond and Pearl''; Porygon's evolved form, ], can hover above the ground. | |||
| Porygon2 evolves from a Porygon that has been traded while holding the Up-Grade item. Porygon2 also makes two cameos in the fighting game '']''. It is one of an assortment of Pokémon that can emerge from a ] item, and a collectible Porygon2 trophy can also be obtained. | |||
