My boys, 8 and 9, are really interested in Pokemon, particularly the video games and card collecting. I purchased one "Pocket Pokedex" book for them while on vacation this Summer and it proved to be the most desired and used item since. I actually had to replace the book within 2wks partly d/t to a bad binding and also because it was read for hours a day by both of them. The "Pocket Pokedex" has microscopic print and very little readability-mostly just the hard facts and technical points of each character listed in microscopic graphs. I saw this new version coming out a month ago and figured I'd treat my kids to it. I didn't preview the book, just hoped it would be as well liked as the one they already have. Well, this version absolutely blows away the "Pocket Pokedex"! This book is chock full of all the best details about every Pokemon (inc Darkrai!!)! It has large easy to read print, full color text and pictures of every Pokemon, all their strengths, weaknesses, battle criteria, their character morphing capabilities (including pictures of those), and they are all listed alphabetically for convience! My kids just screamed when I gave them to them and showered me with gratitude. They had no idea there was even a new referrence book available. Any Poke' fan will be thrilled with this outstanding see-all, tell-all, user friendly resource! Purely a grand-slam!

For those Pokémon lovers, this is an ultra handy book to have. It contains information and facts about pretty much all the Pokemon. From all Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh regions. This book is exactly what you need to help you past that tricky part you can never defeat. Wondering about a Pokemon? Well just grab this book and look it up. Simply as that.
