The National Dex is now built into the pokemon bank. and instead of registering each individual pokemon you deposit, it scans save files in order to fill pages. I was skeptical too at first, but it seems like a nice fit. also it turns out i only need about 155 more pokemon to fill my dex, and it should be a lot easier with save data scanning.
the only downside is that you have to pay for pokemon bank, but it only costs $5 a year to use. so even then its not that big a loss. and yes it does feel weird to not have a normal National Dex in game, but you sort of get use to it
