Pokémon Celebrates Over 1,000 Creatures By Counting ‘Em All

 

While keen-eyed trainers may have already worked out that the number of Pokémon had exceeded 1,000 with the release of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, today the mega series confirmed that there is now a four-digit number of ‘Mons to catch across all the games in the franchise.

 

To celebrate the ultra number, Pokémon mystery gifted everyone an adorable video on its YouTube channel counting all the Pokémon by showing them in their original games. Don’t worry, though, the video is only 8 minutes long – they didn’t count them all individually!
