Kodoma is the shinkansen that stops at all stations.
A few notes about Nozomi service.
The JR pass is not valid on Nozomi shinkansen.
There are two trainsets that run Nozomi service, the cool futuristic looking series 500 trains, the interior reminds me more of an airplane than a train, and the series 700 trains (which has a flat front end), the 700series is also used on Hikari and some Kodoma services.
