Description
Take an in-depth look into the lives of Pokémon!
When we talk about how a Pokémon lives within nature, and the relationships between it and its environment, we call that its 'ecology'. This book introduces you to the ecologies of many Pokémon based on the descriptions of them found in the Pokédex.
This innovative, highly illustrated new book introduces you to the ecologies of Pokémon based on information from the Pokédex, the official database containing over 7,500 pieces of Pokémon data. Over 1,000 species of Pokémon have been discovered and this book shows the many ways that some of them live their lives.
This groundbreaking, full-colour new guide takes you on a journey to discover Pokémon from all nine known regions, their different environments and how they adapt to them, even how they catch and collect their food, and much, much more.
Using vivid artwork, Pokécology: An Illustrated Guide to Pokémon Ecology focuses on the similarities, differences, generalities and relationships between Pokémon ecologies and explains Pokécology from a brand-new perspective.
This book is perfect for fans of all ages and will prove to be an indispensable reference to everyone interested in the wonderful world of Pokémon.
