The canon does not really do much to describe what Pokémon are, though it’s not needed. It can be safely assumed that Pokémon are “creatures that inhabit the Pokémon world as well as others, taking a great variety of forms, and that can be befriended”. The franchise implies at times a definition even simpler than that. Past that there are several facets that are left open or not even treated at all (such as if they are native to the Pokémon world), or aspects of Pokémon as species that are inconsistent across canons (such as if Pokémon are sapient).
For the purposes of Suocéverse an abstract definition of Pokémon is taken similar to what is seen above and that will be qualified somewhat with various bits of worldbuilding.
