So y'all remember those bookfairs we had in elementary school? Those were the greatest man. They were like paradise for little book-loving me. We got cataglogs and I'd just go "OMG I WANNA BUY EVERYTHING!" But the thing I wanted most--at least when I was seven--was this freaking book. I was so happy when I first go it, I literally spent hours pouring over it trying to find out stuff about my favorite Pokemon, and then me and my sister would play like we had real Pokemon--that or pick up tall sti...more
I still have my book. I used the list on the back of the book to mark off the pokemon cards I had, trying to complete the different sets. To this day I'm a proud owner of the Complete Pokemon Jungle Set Cards. I created pokemon decks with this, such as my ForestFire Deck (fire and grass) and my LightningBoulder Deck (Rock/Ground/Fighting and Electric).
I own this book proudly and I love it dearly. Even if some pages are missing and it's ripped clean in half with the masking tape with scribbles o...more

This is definetly a dorky, child-ish hobby I kind-of do and don't have. I haven't seen my copy since just now actually, but I remembered how much I just liked to page through to look at all the pokemon and circle my favorites. ^_^ That was probably around 2nd or 3rd grade. This really for people into pokemon and/or totally hard core gamers, fans etc.
Brilliant. Who didn't have this book? Mine has a shredded jacket that is no longer attached to the book and scribbles in pretty much every page as well as drawings of me and my Pokémon team. I always wonder how the writer of this book feels because she's just a children's writer who probably didn't care that much about Pokémon.
This is basically an encyclopedia for pokemon. There are many ways that it could be used in the classroom. It could be used to teach students how to organize and sort things and how to use an encyclopedia to find information. The fact that it uses pokemon will engage the students and make the activity more fun.
Wow. THIS BOOK. <3 I borrowed this from my neighbor when I was eight years old and first getting into Pokemon. This is how I first learned all of their names. I loved this book. I was so happy when I found it again at an anime con swap meet, even though I don't need it anymore...
This book has only the original 150 Pokemon and I'm sure back in the day all Pokemon fans had this one book. It pretty much had all you needed to know about every single Pokemon there was at the time.
I remember when I first saw it, I had to have this book. It wasn't any money wasted either; as I repeatedly read it over and over again. I read every page, learnt what I could about all of the 150 Pokemon. I'd read it whenever I was playing Pokemon Yellow and read up about whatever Pokemon I had cau...more

What 10 year old Pokemon fanatic didn't have this book? lol Man looking back at these books make me really miss elementary school. A great little handbook, helped kids out with the stats in the video games. And hey, it gets kids to read!
Ah. Read when I got into anime and picked up this wanting to learn all the pokemon names. Then got it taken away from me because my family considered pokemon (pocket monsters) evil. Ha ha.

Pokemon was my childhood. This was my bible. If only my mother didn't get rid of all my Pokemon things after I grew up, I would have a nostalgia overload.
I miss you, Pikachu:(
I miss you, Pikachu:(
I loved this book when I was younger. I still kick myself over the fact that I gave it away, but I'm still happy I kept the original Pokedex.
When I was 7 this was my bible. Probably still would be if my copy hadn't completely disintegrated.
this def helped me when i was younger when it was cool to play gameboy.....what happened to the good days :(
All pokemon books are so amazing it will sound that im a nerd so what i like you got a problem with that.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this! ... when i was a kid it came in so handy i still have it to this day! :)
this book is ver good for pokemon lovers and poeple that would like to learn about pokemon.
Had this during my childhood. Really love the show then. Now, it was just so-so to me.
This book is pure gold. It is the bible for any original pokemon master.
It really got me up to speed with my Kanto knowledge. I love it!!
Amusing and I will keep because my son now loves Pikachu. =)
I stole this book from a little boy a long time ago. so cruel.
I love Pokémon and it is very informative
I can't say there's anything wrong with this.
One step closer to being a POKEMON MASTER
This book helped me catch 'em all!!!
