Pokédex 3D (Japanese: ポケモン立体図鑑ＢＷ Pokémon 3D Picture Book BW) is a free Nintendo 3DS app available from the eShop. The app is a Unova Pokédex, featuring Pokémon from Pokémon Black and White Versions. Once downloaded, players are able to view the data of 16 different Pokémon; more can be unlocked through three different methods: three random Pokémon per day via SpotPass; trading information with others; and in some cases scanning AR codes, likely to be distributed online and at events.
Features
- The Pokédex allows players to view 3D renderings of each Pokémon, and rotate them 360 degrees in any direction. These renderings can be used with the 3DS’s built-in camera and Augmented Reality to place Pokémon in real world environments. Each Pokémon model also has a corresponding animation.
- Each Pokémon (and form[e]) has its own individual Augmented Reality (AR) card, a grid of black and white blocks, which becomes an image of a Poké Ball and the Pokémon model in the Augmented Reality.
- The Pokédex has an advanced search feature, and players can add Pokémon to a favorites list.
- Basic Pokédex functions are also available, including Pokémon stats, height, weight, and evolution data; as well as viewing movesets and egg groups, features not seen in-game since Earl’s Pokémon Academy in Pokémon Stadium 2.
- Moves are also listed, their information and stats, and the Unova Pokémon that learn them, can be viewed, except for the seven secret moves—V-create, Freeze Shock, Ice Burn, Snarl, Secret Sword, Relic Song, and Techno Blast. Other moves are present even if no Pokémon in the Unova Pokédex can learn them (such as Roar of Time, legitimately only known by Dialga, Darkrai, Arceus, and Smeargle).
AR Viewer
AR codes are a type of 2-dimensional barcode, similar to QR codes, that certain 3DS software recognizes through the console’s cameras and translates into full 3D models of characters and objects, displayed as if they were present in the real world, on top or in front of the AR card. After unlocking their data in the main Pokédex mode (see Obtaining Pokémon), players may use Pokédex 3D’s AR Viewer function to activate the camera and take photographs of favorite Pokémon, which can be shared with the use of an SD Card. The player can toss an apple at a Pokémon to initiate its animation, and, after unlocking additional features by collecting Stickers, can toss a musical note at it to hear its cry, or use the stopwatch to freeze it during its animation.
Stickers
There are two types of stickers, AR and Photo. An AR Sticker is obtained when a Pokémon’s code is scanned for the first time after obtaining it (scanning a code before the Pokémon’s data is unlocked will only display its silhouette and place a temporary sticker of its AR code in the photo album, which does not add to the Sticker count); a Photo Sticker is obtained the first time a picture is taken with the Pokémon in it. Collecting Stickers unlocks additional features:
- Once 30 stickers are collected, musical notes can be used while taking pictures.
- 50 stickers allow the player to set images as a background. Backgrounds can be chosen from among all pictures on the SD card.
- 70 stickers allow 9 Pokémon to be viewed with the AR viewer at once.
- 100 stickers allow the player to adjust the size of the models shown through the AR viewer.
- 150 stickers activate the stopwatch button.
- 200 stickers allow 10 Pokémon to be viewed with the AR viewer at once.
- 250 stickers allow 11 Pokémon to be viewed with the AR viewer at once.

Pokémon are distributed at random, three per day to each player accessing SpotPass. Any Pokémon can be obtained in this way. After obtaining a Pokémon via SpotPass, players can view the Pokémon through the AR Viewer.
