Some Pokémon live alongside humans and some live in the wild in grassy fields, caves, or the sea, but much about their ecology that remains unknown. One of their main features is that they can be caught using a Poké Ball, which allows them to be carried around. [Verse] Just how many kinds of Pokémon exist? The exact number is unknown. While over 1000 kinds of Pokémon have been confirmed, as of yet unseen Pokémon will surely be discovered in the future. [Chorus] Pokémon evolve by leveling up. For example, In the case of Pidgey: [Verse] Pokémon learn a variety of moves that they can then use in battle. Pokémon grow stronger and level up through battle. Some Pokémon not only level up, but evolve as well. [Pre-chorus] Pokémon are classified into 18 types based on their characteristics. For example, Pikachu is an Electric type Pokémonand Magikarp is a Water type. There are some Pokémon who belong to two types, such as Jigglypuff, who is both Normal and Fairy. Each type has special affinities that have a big effect on battles. If your opponent's Pokémon has the right type of affinity, it can be a huge advantage in battle. [Outro]
