Which makes absolutely zero sense, and goes against the anime. Most of the Pokemon in the in-game world have already been caught by one of the various trainers, gym leaders, or elite four members you fight along the way. And in the anime, the Pokedex is used to identify some wild Pokemon before Ash or his friends capture it, not after.

More like the anime goes against the game, which was first.

The anime and manga are a little more accurate, in that some pokemon had no data, but all the common ones were easily looked up.
