The second generation (generation II) of the Pokémon franchise features 100 fictional species of creatures introduced to the core video game series in the 1999 Game Boy Color games Pokémon Gold and Silver, set in the Johto region. Some Pokémon in this generation were introduced in animated adaptations of the franchise before Gold and Silver, such as Ho-Oh in the first episode of the Pokémon anime series in 1998 and 1999, Togepi, which was a recurring character in the anime owned by Misty, Donphan in the Pokémon first movie in 1998, Snubbull in the first Pikachu short movie in 1998, and Marill, which also debuted in that short film and was a recurring character in the anime owned by Tracey Sketchit in 1998 and 1999. Elekid, Bellossom, Ledyba, and Hoothoot debuted in Pikachu's Rescue Adventure, and Lugia and Slowking debuted in Pokémon 2000.

The following list details the 100 Pokémon of generation II in order of their National Pokédex number. The first Pokémon, Chikorita, is number 152 and the last, Celebi, is number 251. Alternate forms that result in type changes are included for convenience. Mega evolutions and regional forms are included on the pages for the generation in which they were introduced.

Design and development

Two new types were introduced in Pokémon Gold and Silver – namely the "Dark" and "Steel" types – which were intended to better balance the gameplay of Pokémon battles. Dark and Steel types fare well against the then dominant Psychic type. The concept of breeding was introduced in the second generation of Pokémon games as well, which allows players to manipulate the skills of their Pokémon to a greater degree. Some of the new Pokémon introduced in Gold and Silver are pre-evolutions of other Pokémon, such as Pichu and Igglybuff. Referred to as "baby Pokémon", they are usually only available by breeding their evolved forms.

Pokémon Gold and Silver were first revealed at Nintendo Space World in 1997. At this point, the game had a massively larger world map than the final game and this prototype featured around 40 Pokémon designs that were removed and replaced when the games were released in 1999.

The leaves on its neck hold small tree shoots. As opposed to Chikorita's leaf, their spicy aroma acts as a stimulant, making others more agitated.
Meganium Meganium (メガニウム) (0154)		Grass	Bayleef (#153)	—	Its petals can soothe opponents, and its breath has regenerative properties, allowing it to revive dead plants.
Cyndaquil Hinoarashi (ヒノアラシ) (0155)		Fire	—	Quilava (#156)	It curls up into a ball and shoots fire from its back when startled or angry. It keeps itself hunched over so it can curl more easily.
Quilava Magumarashi (マグマラシ) (0156)		Fire	Cyndaquil (#155)	Typhlosion (#157)	It turns its back to the opponent in battle, and shoots fire from its back. Its fur is not flammable, protecting it from its own fire. While it does that, it can weave around its foe's attacks.
Typhlosion Bakufūn (バクフーン) (0157)		Fire	Quilava (#156)	—	It rubs its fur to light its surroundings on fire as an offensive tool and to hide in the flames, or cause explosions. When angry, it lights everything it touches on fire. It gained a Fire/Ghost-type Hisuian Form in generation VIII.

Furret Ōtachi (オオタチ) (0162)		Normal	Sentret (#161)	—	Furret is known for slipping through small spaces due to its thin body. It does this to escape from predators or hunt Pokémon like Rattata. It is hard to tell where its body ends and its tail begins.
Hoothoot Hōhō (ホーホー) (0163)		Normal / Flying	—	Noctowl (#164)	Due to an internal organ that senses the world's rotation, it hoots at the exact same time every day, and tilts its head at a consistent rhythm. It only ever stands on one foot, and switches it faster than the human eye can see.
Noctowl Yorunozuku (ヨルノズク) (0164)		Normal / Flying	Hoothoot (#163)	—	It has night vision, and its soft feathers allow it to fly without making a sound. When it needs to think, it turns its head 180º to raise its intellect.

Spinarak Itomaru (イトマル) (0167)		Bug / Poison	—	Ariados (#168)	Its webs are strong enough to withstand rocks being thrown at them, so fishermen use them as nets. It can wait for days for prey like Cutiefly to get caught. Its poison is not strong, but can be used to weaken prey. It can determine what it has caught by feeling the vibrations on its web.
Ariados Ariados (アリアドス) (0168)		Bug / Poison	Spinarak (#167)	—	It prefers to wander around to hunt, instead of setting a web and waiting. While doing so, it constantly spins a thread that leads it back home. It sneaks up on its prey, wraps them in thread, weakens them with poison, and sucks their bodily fluids. It may sometimes release them, but leave a thread on them, which leads it to the their nest or friends. It can spin thread from its abdomen and mouth, making it hard to tell which end is which.
Crobat Crobat (クロバット) (0169)		Poison / Flying	Golbat (#042)	—	Two more wings grew where its hind legs used to be. It can fly with all four wings, or alternate between them. It can fly silently up to its prey and suck its blood.

Junichi Masuda noted that Pichu was intended to become the "next" Pikachu. Pichu has become Masuda's favorite Pokémon because of the "well thought-out" design process that went into creating it. Despite its size, it can zap adult humans, but since it is not fully capable of storing electricity, it may shock and startle itself in the process. It plays with others by touching tails and setting off sparks as a test of courage.
Cleffa Pī (ピィ) (0173)		Fairy	—	Clefairy (#035)	It lives near mountainous regions and meteor crash sites. During nights with shooting stars, colonies of Cleffa can be seen dancing until the morning, at which point they drink morning dew and disappear. It is fascinated with things shaped like or related to stars, such as Minior.
Igglybuff Pupurin (ププリン) (0174)		Normal / Fairy	—	Jigglypuff (#039)	Its vocal cords are not fully developed yet, so its throat becomes sore after prolonged periods of singing. Despite this, it wants to improve, so it constantly sings. It lives near freshwater streams, and gargles their water to heal its throat. It bounces around to move, though it struggles with stopping.
Togepi Togepi (トゲピー) (0175)		Fairy	—	Togetic (#176)	It can store positive feelings in its shell and release them when needed. It withdraws into its shell to sleep, and can release poison from its spikes.

Mareep Merīpu (メリープ) (0179)		Electric	—	Flaaffy (#180)	Its wool grows continuously and rubs together to build a static charge. It increases in volume the more energy it has stored. The wool is shed during summer, can be used to make clothing, and grows back in a week.
Flaaffy Mokoko (モココ) (0180)		Electric	Mareep (#179)	Ampharos (#181)	Storing too much electricity has caused it to lose most of its wool, but it can store more energy than Mareep's, and it can fire it at opponents. Its rubbery skin protects it from its own energy, and the tip of its tail glows when it has fully charged.
Ampharos Denryū (デンリュウ) (0181)		Electric	Flaaffy (#180)	Mega Evolution	It has lost all of its wool. The orb in the tip of its tail can generate light bright enough to be seen from space, so it usually keeps it off. It has been used as a beacon and to send signals since ancient times.

Its oil-filled tail acts as a lifesaver so it can catch and eat aquatic plants.

Quagsire Nuō (ヌオー) (0195)		Water / Ground	Wooper (#194)	—	Due to its low intelligence, it does not feel pain when it is hurt. While swimming, it tends to bump its head on boulders and boats. It leaves its mouth open and waits for unknowing prey to get in. Because it generally stays immobile, it takes some time to get hungry.
Espeon Ēfi (エーフィ) (0196)		Psychic	Eevee (#133)	—	It bathes in sunlight to build its psychic power, so it struggles to fight at night. Its fur is sensitive, allowing it to sense movements in the air to predict the weather and its opponents' moves.
Umbreon Blacky (ブラッキー) (0197)		Dark	Eevee (#133)	—	Constant exposure to moonlight has altered its genetic composition. Its rings glow when it is excited or bathing in moonlight. It hides in the dark while hunting, and jumps at unsuspecting prey's throats. It sprays poisonous sweat from the pores in its body to defend itself.
Murkrow Yamikarasu (ヤミカラス) (0198)		Dark / Flying	—	Honchkrow (#430)	It is interested in shiny things, to the point of fighting with Pokémon like Meowth and Gabite over it. It may give them to trainers it trusts. It leads chasing predators around dark mountains to lose them, and does the same to travelers as a prank.

Misdreavus Mūma (ムウマ) (0200)		Ghost	—	Mismagius (#429)	It feeds on people's fear, and stores it on the orbs around its neck. To that end, it may scream or cry, sneak up on them and yank their hair, or imitate the voices of weeping people and children. Its orbs emit constant shrieking sounds. A nocturnal species, it sleeps during daytime, and goes out to scare others at night. It is thought to be related to the ancient Paradox Pokémon Flutter Mane.
Unown Unown (アンノーン) (0201)		Psychic	No evolution		Unown has 28 different forms: 26 representing each letter in the Latin alphabet, one for a question mark, and one for an exclamation mark. It is said to resemble ancient hieroglyphs from ancient tablets. Historians question whether or not Unown precede them. Multiple Unown can work together to warp reality and warp to and from an alternate dimension that acts as their home. Unown have currently unclear connections with Arceus. Researchers debate on whether Unown communicate with electromagnetic waves or telepathy, though their presence interferes with radio signals.
Wobbuffet Sōnansu (ソーナンス) (0202)		Psychic	Wynaut (#360)	—	It dislikes light and its tail being touched, so it lives in dark caves. In battle, it does not attack first, and instead inflates its body to counter blows. If its tail is attacked, it uses Destiny Bond to attempt to take the attacker down with it. If two Wobbuffet meet, they may try to see which one can go the longest without food.
Girafarig Kirinriki (キリンリキ) (0203)		Normal / Psychic	—	Farigiraf (#981)	Its tail has a head and brain of its own, though it is incapable of rational thought, and instead moves based on stimuli. If the tail smells something alluring, it will bite it. It keeps watch of its surroundings while Girafarig is asleep, and can attack with psychic energy on its own. Its and its evolution Farigiraf's names are palindromes.
Pineco Kunugidama (クヌギダマ) (0204)		Bug	—	Forretress (#205)	It spits a glue-like fruit to stick tree bark to its shell in order to make it thicker. It hangs on a tree branch, waiting for prey such as Cutiefly. If the tree is shaken while it is eating, it falls down and explodes.
Forretress Foretosu (フォレトス) (0205)		Bug / Steel	Pineco (#204)	—	It conceals its body in a steel-hard shell, which it opens to capture prey, and can shoot pieces of to defend itself. Because it opens and closes its shell faster than the eye can see, its appearance under the shell is unknown.
Dunsparce Nokotchi (ノコッチ) (0206)		Normal	—	Dudunsparce (#982)	Design inspired by the mythical Japanese creature Tsuchinoko. Its tiny wings allow it to float slightly. Scientists believe it used them to fly in the sky. It hides or flees from potential predators by drilling holes into the ground with its tail. It gets along with Diglett, and the two species share tunnels with each other.
Gligar Gligar (グライガー) (0207)		Ground / Flying	—	Gliscor (#472)	It glides silently through the air, latches on the enemy's face with its hind legs and wings, and jabs them with its poisonous stinger. After gliding, it hops back to its nest. It lives in mountainous areas.
Steelix Haganēru (ハガネール) (0208)		Steel / Ground	Onix (#095)	Mega Evolution	Under immense pressure underground, an Onix is said to have its rock-like body compressed into diamonds and evolve into Steelix. In a paper published by the University of Leicester, physicists calculated the plausibility of Onix evolving into Steelix through the stated lore. It would require pressures of 4.5–6 gigapascals at a temperature of 900 to 1,300 °C (1,650 to 2,370 °F) over a period of billions of years for this conversion to take place. Assuming these conditions, the resulting Steelix would be substantially smaller than given in the Pokédex entry and is considered implausible. It lives further down than Onix toward the earth's core. There are records of it reaching over 6/10 of a mile down underground. It gained a Mega Evolution in generation VI.
Snubbull Burū (ブルー) (0209)		Fairy	—	Granbull (#210)	It sleeps for half of the day, and has an acute sense of smell. Despite its appearance, it is affectionate, playful, and timid. It tries to scare enemies away, as opposed to fighting them. It is popular with women who find it cute.
Granbull Granbull (グランブル) (0210)		Fairy	Snubbull (#209)	—	Its jaws are heavy, so it struggles to keep balance. Despite its appearance and strength, it is more affectionate and timid than Snubbull, and prefers to stay out of fights. It will only attack if startled, at which point it will bite or flail at potential enemies. It is popular with children.
Qwilfish Harīsen (ハリーセン) (0211)		Water / Poison	No evolution		In order to fire its poisonous spikes that evolved from scales, it must drink at least 2.6 gallons of water all at once. It can fire those spikes in all directions by pressurizing the water in its body. Due to its body shape and single fin, it struggles with swimming. Fishermen try to catch it after it fires its spikes and becomes defenseless. It is based on Porcupine fish. It has a Dark/Poison-type Hisuian form.
Scizor Hassamu (ハッサム) (0212)		Bug / Steel	Scyther (#123)	Mega Evolution	It uses its eye-patterned pincers to scare foes into thinking it has 3 heads. Its pincers account for a third of its body weight, and are said to be able to crush anything. It has a body of steel and is not fazed by regular attacks. It does not use its wings to fly, but to regulate its body temperature so it does not melt in battle. It gained a Mega Evolution in generation VI.
Shuckle Tsubotsubo (ツボツボ) (0213)		Bug / Rock	No evolution		To avoid attacks, Shuckle quietly hides itself under rocks, keeping its body concealed inside its hard shell.

Sneasel Nyūra (ニューラ) (0215)		Dark / Ice	—	Weavile (#461)	Its design is inspired by the mythical Japanese creature Kamaitachi. It climbs trees with its claws to steal bird Pokémon's eggs from unguarded nests. Two Sneasel may team up with others to steal eggs, with one luring the parents away and the other taking the eggs, but fights will usually break out over which one will eat them. It has a Fighting/Poison-type Hisuian form.
Teddiursa Himeguma (ヒメグマ) (0216)		Normal	—	Ursaring (#217)	Its paws are constantly soaked and honey, and it is constantly licking them. It can make honey by mixing pollen collected by Beedrill with berries, or steal it from Combee hives. When it finds honey, the mark on its head glows. When nervous, it licks its paws. Every set of paws is said to taste different.
Ursaring Ringuma (リングマ) (0217)		Normal	Teddiursa (#216)	Ursaluna (#901)	While it is skilled at climbing, it prefers snapping trees with its forelegs and collecting their fallen berries to eat.

It competes with Primeape for food.
Slugma Magumaggu (マグマッグ) (0218)		Fire	—	Magcargo (#219)	Its circulatory system is composed almost entirely of magma. To prevent it from cooling off and turning brittle, it seeks warmer places like volcanoes to live in, and never stops moving.
Magcargo Magcargo (マグカルゴ) (0219)		Fire / Rock	Slugma (#218)	—	Its body temperature is approximately 18,000 °F (10,000 °C). Its shell is made of cooled magma, though it is brittle enough to break from a touch. It can dip itself in lava to recover. This description would imply Magcargo is hotter than the surface of the sun.
Swinub Urimū (ウリムー) (0220)		Ice / Ground	—	Piloswine (#221)	It uses its nose to dig through snow to find food. Its favorite food is a type of mushroom that grows under dead grass. If it smells something enticing, it will rush to the source of the smell. It may discover hot springs while digging.
Piloswine Inomū (イノムー) (0221)		Ice / Ground	Swinub (#220)	Mamoswine (#473)	Its thick fur allows it to live in cold environments. Its tusks are made of ice, and it uses them to dig through ice and snow. Its hooves prevent it from slipping on ice. Tufts of fur cover its eyes, so it uses its nose to check its surroundings.
Corsola Sanīgo (サニーゴ) (0222)		Water / Rock	No evolution		Its branches are used by Pokémon like Horsea and Luvdisc as shelter, or by humans as jewelry and charms to promote safe childbirth. If the water it lives in is not clean, its branches lose color and degenerate. Mareanie and Toxapex are its main predators in Alola. It has a Ghost-type Galarian form.
Remoraid Teppouo (テッポウオ) (0223)		Water	—	Octillery (#224)	It is based on the remora. It may use its dorsal fin as a sucker to stick a Mantine and feed on the scraps it leaves, though it may also fight along.

Octillery Okutan (オクタン) (0224)		Water	Remoraid (#223)	—	It grabs its foes and bashes their heads in with its skull, which is as hard as stone. If the foe is too strong, it sprays ink from its mouth to escape. This ink has a substance that dulls opponents' sense of smell. It may steal the nests of other Octillery to sleep. Due to the anatomical differences between it and Remoraid, people initially thought them to be unrelated species.
Delibird Delibird (デリバード) (0225)		Ice / Flying	No evolution		Its tail functions as a sack, in which it carries food to share with its chicks or people and Pokémon lost in mountains. One explorer has reached the peak of Mount Everest thanks to a Delibird sharing its food. An omnivorous species, it may sometimes offer people bug Pokémon to eat. It throws food at its opponents to defend itself. It is thought to be related to the Paradox Pokémon Iron Bundle.
Mantine Mantine (マンタイン) (0226)		Water / Flying	Mantyke (#458)	—	It is based on the giant oceanic manta ray. A carefree species, it does not mind Remoraid sticking to its fins. It lives in schools in open seas, and can jump out of the water and fly up to 300 feet (100 meters) in the air given enough room and speed.
Skarmory Eāmudo (エアームド) (0227)		Steel / Flying	No evolution		It sets its nests in bramble bushes, and the skin of its chicks grows into a metallic material from being scratched. Its feathers are regularly shed or fall off from being damaged in battle, but grow back in a year. In the past, people crafted swords from them. It competes with Corviknight for territory.
Houndour Derubiru (デルビル) (0228)		Dark / Fire	—	Houndoom (#229)	Houndour form coordinated packs, and communicate with barks and howls. Trained Houndour are loyal to their trainers.

It is the leader of the Legendary Bird trio and the mascot for Pokémon Silver and SoulSilver. It debuted in the second movie, where it spoke and was one of the heroes. Lugia was originally conceived by Takeshi Shudo, the head writer of the first Pokémon anime. Lugia had been designed solely for Pokémon:The Movie 2000, and Shudo expressed surprise that the creature was later featured in the video games and TV show. Lugia, who possessed a speaking role in the film, was given a masculine voice. However, Shudo intended Lugia as a creature that was simultaneously male and female. This dual nature was intended to embody one of the film's main messages, that people can be different and yet coexist without resorting to conflict. He showed "overwhelming regret that he allowed Lugia to be voiced by a man", considering Lugia, the "creator of all life on Earth", to be a "maternal Pokémon". Stating that "it was too late, we couldn't suddenly change Lugia into a female", the change was so significant to him that it made him start "gulping down alcohol and drugs" and "feel like [he] wanted to die". During the final few years of his life, Shudo became "obsessed" with Lugia, writing numerous blog posts on the subject.
