Pokémon showing in Pokédex but not in Pokémon? - Pok choi with fresh green leaves

I started playing around with Pokémon Go and caught a couple of Pokémon. They're showing up in the Pokédex but not in my Pokémon. Did I delete them or something by accident and is there any way to get them back?



Best Answer

You most likely transferred them to the Professor. You can't get them back, but you most likely did get Candy for them which you need to power them up and evolve them so nothing is lost.

Why are some Pokémon not in sword and shield Pokédex?

Why are Pokémon not showing up?

If you can't find any Pok\xe9mon, your connection to the game's server may be borked. Try restarting your Wi-Fi connection (or turning it on, if it's off), even if you're not near a Wi-Fi source. Simply having the Wi-Fi on can ease connectivity issues. Try rebooting the app, too.

    I had the same thing happen with Wigglytuff: I did not have the Pokemon, but it was in my Pokedex. When I got an actual Wigglytuff, I didn't receive 500 XP for the initial Pokedex find.

    It is most likely you transferred the Pokemon because it was weak. If you did so, there is no way to get it back.

    It's also possible that this is a bug. The bug happened for a few of my friends, but it has likely been fixed, so I believe it's more likely you simply transferred it.
