Pokémon is set to launch an official encyclopedia that delves into the fascinating world of Pokémon behaviors and ecology. Authored by renowned animal ecologists, this book, titled Pokécology, promises to enrich fans' understanding of these beloved creatures.
Pokécology: An Official Encyclopedia For Pokémon Behaviors and Ecology
Launches in Japan in June 2025
In a groundbreaking collaboration with the Japanese comic publisher Shogakukan, The Pokémon Company is set to release Pokécology on June 18, 2025, in Japan. Shogakukan made this exciting announcement on its website on April 21, sparking anticipation among Pokémon enthusiasts. Pre-orders are now open at bookstores throughout Japan, with the book priced at 1,430 yen (tax included).

Pokémon Ecology Encyclopedia
Pokécology will offer an in-depth look into the ecology of Pokémon, exploring their diet, sleep patterns, physical characteristics, and interactions with their environment and fellow Pokémon. This comprehensive guide is crafted by esteemed professionals from the University of Tokyo, including ecologist Yoshinari Yonehara, who spearheaded the research on wild Pokémon behavior. Accompanying the scientific insights are stunning full-color illustrations by Chihiro Kino, an artist renowned for her work in animal ecology books.
While Pokémon has previously published numerous hardcover books covering stats, battle techniques, stories, and game guides, Pokécology marks a significant shift by focusing on the biology and ecology of these creatures. This approach not only deepens fans' appreciation of Pokémon but also serves as an educational resource, particularly for children, to learn more about the natural world through the lens of their favorite characters.
