What Happened to Pokemon?

Arguably less than that, if we don't count Ultra Beasts.

He kissed a girl too. That's what happens when you go from 10 to 11.

Ultra Beasts are in the dex, they count.

Then Zeraoro would too. While it has no official release, it's in the dex.
Perhaps we should ask Rotom, he'd answer this with certainty.

Missingno technically has a Pokedex number too...

I recall in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum you can summon it with an Action Replay, with the calculator Poketch hack. Catching it broke the game.
And if you selected a dex number higher than 493 (Arceus, the last Pokémon in the Dex at that time), you'd battle an egg. It only knew splash and had all stats at 1. Defeating it yielded little exp, and catching it broke the game.

For a guy who started on PONG and has been playing video games ever since, it's surprising that a popular franchise like Pokeman got by me. Never got hooked into it.

As someone who frequently doesn't know things about Pokemon but still enjoys occasionally observing Pokemon culture, it's really not that hard to find out anything you could possibly need to know about any Pokemon.

I remember catching it in Blue. Then when I levelled it up it evolved into a Kangaskhan that knew Sky Attack.

Ah, yes. In Yellow I had one evolve into a Pidgeot with Psybeam. Forgot about that til now.

I remember using that Pidgeot on Pokémon Stadium. Watching the Psybeam blast come from its beak was humorous to say the least.

I remember using Racecar (my Missing Number Kangaskhan) in Stadium too and he worked perfectly normal. Then I challenged a friend to a battle. He sent out a Machamp thinking he had the advantage. His face when I unleashed Sky Attack was priceless.
