What it does

Random Pokémon Generator is a free, fan-made toolkit covering all 1,025 Pokémon across Gen 1–9. The core tool picks a random Pokémon filterable by type, generation, starter status, legendary rarity, and shiny form. It also includes a team generator (6-Pokémon teams with shared-weakness checks), a name generator (real names plus a Fakemon inventor), a moveset generator, a spin wheel, and a draw-challenge prompt tool.

Extra tools

Beyond generation, the site has 4 browser mini-games: Who's That Pokémon (silhouette guessing), a daily Pokémon Wordle, a cry-identification quiz, and a living Pokédex tracker. Everything runs entirely in the browser — no sign-up, no download, completely free.

Who it's for

Pokémon fans, artists and writers looking for drawing/writing prompts, Nuzlocke challengers, and casual browser gamers.
