Team Builder, Nature Chart, and a menu that fits on a phone 2026-08-10

  • Added the Team Builder: pick your own six and see shared weaknesses, types nothing on the team resists, STAB coverage gaps, and a full matchup matrix. Your team saves in your browser.
  • Added the Nature Chart: all 25 natures as the classic 5×5 grid, filterable by the stat you want to raise or lower, with each nature's berry flavors.
  • Added "The Best FireRed & LeafGreen Team" — three teams, one per starter, checked against all eight gyms and the Elite Four.
  • The header nav is now a slide-out menu on phones instead of a cramped row, and Articles finally has a spot in it.

Type tools, a Tools hub, and a simpler name generator 2026-08-05

  • Added the Type Wheel, Type Calculator, Coverage Calculator, Stat Calculator, and IV Calculator.
  • Every type page (Fire, Water, etc.) now lists every Pokémon of that type, not just the generator.
  • Added an All Tools page and a Tools dropdown in the header for one-click access to everything on the site.
  • Simplified the Name Generator to just the Fakemon name maker — removed the "real Pokémon name" mode, since it duplicated the homepage generator.

Mobile: generate first, filter later 2026-08-04

  • The Generate button and your result now show up before the filter panel, so you don't have to scroll past 18 type buttons on mobile just to get a random Pokémon.

Four new generators, a games hub, and an article 2026-07-29

  • Added the Team Generator, Name Generator, Moveset Generator, and Ability Generator.
  • Added a Games hub: Who's That Pokémon, Pokémon Wordle, Pokémon Cry Quiz, and the Pokédex Tracker.
  • Added "The 16 Creepiest Pokédex Entries of All Time."

Redesign, wheel, and draw prompts 2026-07-28

  • Redesigned the site with the current candy-color look and animated interactions.
  • Added the Pokémon Wheel (slot-machine style reveal) and Random Pokémon to Draw.

Launched 2026-07-27

  • Random Pokémon Generator goes live: pick a random Pokémon with filters for type, generation, starter status, legendary rarity, and shiny form.
