Jubilife Breeding Center, Special Training Room.
Today would be another memorable day for the Pokémon research community.
Another numbered Pokémon would be added to the Pokédex, allowing novice Trainers who encountered them to recognize them.
Although that might not sound particularly useful, quite a few novice Trainers received a Pokédex every year.
Besides, existing Pokédexes could also be updated at a Pokémon Center.
It worked much like a phone receiving a system update.
