Pokedex App is finally complete (mostly)
Devlog #5
The app is now mostly complete, this phase of the project went very smoothly.
Here is what I have added:
-
After predicting the pokemon, The app sends a request to PokeAPI at the
https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/{pokemon_name}endpoint and gets the detailed information of the pokemon. -
The information is displayed on a pokemon page which includes basic stats, the type of the pokemon, height , wight et.
-
I have also worked a lot of ui, majority of the time was spent in designing the ui. However the home page still looks empty, it is just a div with
ImageBackgroundand a logo with two buttons and 1 scanner icon that I designed in canva. -
I have also added typed backgrounds, so that every pokemon type has a seperate space themed background, they are mostly nebula images that i found in the NASA Gallery but boyyyy do i like the themes, they look soooo gooood!!!. I am so proud of myself….
What’s left?
While the app is mostly ready, there a few things that I still need/want to add:
- A page displaying all the 151 pokemons in generation 1
- A page that is displayed when there is no confident prediction
- A web version of the app, which would be pretty easy, I just need to change the uploading and capturing logic for it to work on web
So hopefully this is my second last devlog for this project, stay tuned !!!!

Nice! What about an API that allows users to find information about Pokemon related to some of the games. For example: Pokemon GO spawn areas, or other Pokemon game spawn information? Looking good!
@Synxed Thanks for the suggestion, PokeAPI does give spawn information about pokemons based on Games, I will surely implement that but my summer holidays are nealry over and I have a lot of work to do so it might take some time.
