In the vast world of Pokémon GO, adventure isn’t just around the corner—it might be across the globe. Hidden throughout the map are special creatures known as regional Pokémon, unique to specific geographic locations. While some Pokémon can be found anywhere, these exclusive species only appear in certain countries, continents, or climate zones, making them a thrilling target for dedicated trainers and travelers alike. What started as a single regional Pokémon has now expanded into a diverse lineup spanning multiple generations—each with its own unique location-based spawn rules. In this guide, we’ll walk you through every regional Pokémon, organized by generation, so you’ll know exactly where to go to complete your collection.

What are Regional Pokémon?
Regional Pokémon are species that can only be encountered in specific parts of the world. To catch them, you’ll need to travel to their designated regions—be it a country, continent, or even a particular hemisphere. These exclusives encourage exploration, cultural exchange, and global connectivity among players. While a comprehensive Pokémon GO regional map isn’t feasible due to the sheer number and variety of spawn locations, we’ve organized all regional Pokémon chronologically by generation for easy reference. Let’s dive in.
