The Pokémon Company is officially celebrating the 25th anniversary of Pokémon in full force. Read on below to learn more:
See how well you know the people, places, and Pokémon that we’ve met through the games, the animation, and the Pokémon TCG.
As we continue celebrating 25 years of Pokémon, we’ve been testing your knowledge of some of the many regions in the world of Pokémon. This time, we’re going to see just how well you know the Hoenn region, which was first explored in Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire (and later reimagined as Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire). Ash and Pikachu would go on to visit the region in three seasons of Pokémon the Series, and the region’s Pokémon were introduced into the Pokémon Trading Card Game in the EX Ruby & Sapphire expansion.
Give yourself a point for each correct answer, then tally up your score at the end of the quiz to see how well you did. Good luck, Trainers!
