Discover the fascinating world of Pokémon like never before with the upcoming release of an official encyclopedia dedicated to their behaviors and ecology. Dive into the realm of Pokécology and uncover the secrets behind these beloved creatures.
The Pokémon Company, in partnership with the esteemed Japanese comic publisher Shogakukan, is set to launch a groundbreaking encyclopedia titled Pokécology. This eagerly anticipated book will hit the shelves in Japan on June 18, 2025. Shogakukan made this exciting announcement on their website on April 21, and fans can already secure their copies through pre-orders available at bookstores across Japan. Priced at 1,430 yen (including tax), Pokécology promises to be an affordable addition to any Pokémon enthusiast's collection. While no official word has been released about a global launch, given the worldwide appeal of Pokémon, an English edition is highly anticipated.
Pokécology will delve deep into the ecological aspects of Pokémon, offering a comprehensive analysis of their diets, sleep patterns, physical characteristics, and their interactions with other Pokémon and their environment. This unique encyclopedia is crafted by a team of distinguished experts, including veterinary behaviorists and ecology doctors from the prestigious University of Tokyo. Leading the research is ecologist Yoshinari Yonehara, whose work focuses on the analysis of wild Pokémon. Complementing the detailed research, Chihiro Kino, a renowned illustrator of animal ecology books, will bring the Pokémon to life with stunning full-color drawings.
Pokémon has a rich history of publishing hardcover books that cover everything from stats and battle techniques to engaging stories and game guides. However, Pokécology marks a pioneering effort as it's the first to explore the biology and ecology of these beloved creatures. This makes it an invaluable resource for fans, especially young readers, eager to deepen their understanding of Pokémon.
