It also appears plenty of Pokémon species from past Gens will be included, though the size of the Pokédex has yet to be confirmed by Nintendo or Game Freak. Unfortunately, it is likely the full National Pokédex won't be available in Scarlet and Violet, as the list could exceed over 1000 species once the new Gen 9 Pokédex has been revealed.
