PokéROM is a series of educational CD-ROMs in the Pokémon series. Each CD-ROM comes with the application needed to run the game and additional content tied to the Pokémon on the disc. The game consists of a concentration game involving math equations that is needed to "free" the Pokémon and a board game that tests the player's knowledge of trivia. The CD-ROMs' sides are cut off and may not work in most CD-ROM drives.
The PokéROM series was released in three waves, the first being the Premiere Series, covering Pokémon from Generation I. The second, the Movie Series, released as a tie-in to Pokémon the Movie 2000, covers Pokémon seen in the movie. The final wave, the Mystery Series, consists of Pokémon from Generations I and II.
51 Pokémon were released as part of the PokéROM series. A complete list of them could be seen below.
