Pokédex 3D

Obtaining Pokémon

When the app is first installed it starts with 16 Pokémon (Snivy, Servine, Serperior, Tepig, Pignite, Emboar, Oshawott, Dewott, Samurott, Audino, Scraggy, Minccino, Emolga, Foongus, Axew and Hydreigon).

Each day up to three new Pokémon will added to the Pokédex if the 3DS is connected to any wifi connection. This is known as Spot Pass.

The 3DS can also connect to other systems via local wireless and swap Pokédex information. Simply go to Settings, then tap Give or Get to send or receive data from a nearby 3DS.

AR Markers

AR stands for Augmented Reality - a great invention in which images can be super-imposed on top of live camera scenes. AR Markers - also known as QR codes - are special patterns that the camera recognises and each different pattern represents a Pokémon. Under Settings go to AR Viewer and point the camera at one of the squares below.

Scanning the cards for Victini, Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion, Reshiram or Zekrom will add them to the Pokédex right away. Any other Pokémon not in the dex will appear as a silhouette, although the marker itself will be put in the sticker book. Any unknown AR stickers in the book have a higher chance of being chosen as a random daily Pokémon via Spot Pass.

Stickers

Pokédex 3D has a sticker book with two pages: one for AR Stickers and one for Photo Stickers. When scanning an QR code of a Pokémon in your dex, you will obtain an AR Sticker for that Pokémon. If you also take a photo of the Pokémon, you get a Photo Sticker. More stickers unlock certain features:
