After a bit of a rocky start, the 3DS eShop is now available and seemingly functional. Once you've gotten your paws on the free 3D Pokédex, capture the above AR codes to add pages for the legendary Pokémon Victini and Virizion.
Back in the old days, when Pokémon titles were limited to primary colors, I had a little baby Pokédex I could fit in my pocket. Since then, they've grown to the size of phonebooks and are not practical for anyone wanting to learn about Cubchoo on the go. Now, in these backwards times we live in, where phonebooks are nearly extinct and Pokémon games are named for the absence of color, Nintendo recognizes this absurdity and will be releasing a free digital Pokédex on the 3DS eShop.
Entries will span all Pocket Monsters from the Black and White iterations, but unfortunately, if you want to learn about 'um all, you gotta' earn it. The app comes preloaded with 16 Pokémon, but the remainder must be unlocked by using SpotPass, scanning QR codes and trading with friends.
