Ever found yourself in a fight against a Pokémon and wondering which attack would be the most effective? Check exactly that with this specialized version of the Pokedex!
Type a name or number, get the answer in one card: weaknesses, resistances, immunities, base stats, evolution chain, and the original Pokédex flavor text. Built for the seconds-matter moment mid-battle, but pretty enough to browse between matches.
- Pokémon - all 1025 species via PokéAPI, with proper dual-type effectiveness.
- Pokémon Uranium - 254 entries including 50 Mega / Nuclear variants with the Nuclear type baked into the chart.
- Pokémon Insurgence - 198 Delta Pokémon scraped from the Insurgence wiki, with the rebalanced Delta typings.
Every result card carries: dex number, localized species name, type chips, cry playback button, base stats with color-graded bars, evolution chain (tap to scan an evolution), the original Pokédex flavor text, and the full weakness/resistance/immunity breakdown.
English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese. UI strings + Pokémon species names both localize, so 「ピカチュウ」 displays as ピカチュウ on the Japanese setting. Auto-detects your OS locale on first launch - switch any time from Settings.
Choose how Pokémon are rendered: official artwork, Pokémon HOME 3D, Showdown animated, or pixel sprites from Gen 5 / Gen 4 / Gen 1. Cry playback picks between the latest game's recording or the legacy Gen-1-to-5 chiptune beep. Shiny mode shows shiny artwork when available across all sprite styles.
Three font presets (Pixelify / Crisp / Arcade), light and dark themes (both honor prefers-color-scheme on first launch), and a CRT screen effect with per-effect toggles for scanlines, vignette, chromatic aberration, text-shadow flicker, and dot-matrix overlay. The brand stays red-on-dark by default; light mode inverts the "screen" without losing the red device shell.
The Rust backend persists every PokéAPI response - Pokémon, species, evolution chains, type effectiveness - to disk as JSON, keyed by a schema version. First search per Pokémon pays the network cost; repeat searches are instant and work offline. Clear from Settings → API cache.
