It is grammatically correct to say both "a pokémon" and "many pokémon"

* Pokémon Trainer
Users of video games are called Pokémon Trainer. They aim to achieve two objectives: to capture all the pokémon species available in the region and thus complete the information of all the pokémon in the Pokédex, they must train them and face them to other pokémon to demonstrate their skills, strength, talent and thus become a Pokémon Master. To achieve this, Pokémon trainers travel throughout the regions of the Pokémon world, collecting gym medals, in a battle in which both the trainer and the gym leader face their pokémon to test their special abilities in a battle.
* Initial Pokémon
One of the constant aspects of Pokémon videogames since its inception with Pokémon Red and Blue for the Game Boy handheld console, up to the latest version, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl for Nintendo DS, is that players, at the start of the game, receive their First Pokémon as a gift from the Local Professor. The established amount of Pokémon initials is three, of which the coaches can choose only one. They are always of the water type, fire type and grass type.
However, in Pokémon Yellow, the coach receives Pikachu as his initial pokémon. However, after the releases of Pokémon Red and Blue, Pikachu can be obtained during its search in the path of the game by a single player, something that is not possible in any other installment of the franchise.
Another constant aspect is that the player's rival, a character who also becomes a coach at the same time as the player, will always choose a Pokémon that has an advantage over that of the protagonist.
* Pokédex
The Pokédex in the fictional world of Pokémon, is an electronic device that intervenes in video games and the anime series. In games, its function is to record the data of a Pokémon. In video games, a coach receives a blank pokédex at the start of his journey. The objective is to complete the information of all Pokémon available in the region where you are. The trainer will receive the name and image of the pokémon that has been found.
== Anime ==
The series and films of Pokémon, form an anime that is based on the saga of videogames.
The series follows the adventures of Ash Ketchum, who wishes to become a Pokémon Master and who, in the company of his friends, travels around the world of Pokémon.
Ash starts his first Pokémon trainer day with his first (and own) pokémon, called Pikachu, unlike video games where the trainer can choose a Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle.
* Pokédex
In the manga and anime, the Pokédex is an electronic encyclopedia, which provides the trainer with information about a Pokémon that is unknown by simply exposing the pokédex in front of the pokémon.
* Argument
