Let's Go is BAD. Sword+Shield aren't much better. Legends:Arceus? WAIT WHAT? REAL-TIME BATTLES? TRASH. Scarlet+Violet? Insanely good.

@Ash: Part of the reason I made this page was I was curious about which Pokémon evolved at which level, which wasn't information that was found anywhere else with that presentation. There are lots of sites where you can look up how a particular Pokémon evolves - though this one is also usable for that - but not a lot where you can see how many Pokémon evolve at a given level or by a certain method. Ordering it by National Pokédex would just lose that aspect - as well as not actually making it that much easier to find the Pokémon you want for most people!

Or just make it an alternative order?

Can't you order them by family and Pokédex order? Like Bulbasaur Ivysaur Venusaur, then Charmander Charmeleon Charizard, then Squirtle Wartortle Blastoise, then Caterpie Metapod BUTTERFREE, then Weedle Kakuna Beedrill, then Pidgey Pidgeotto Pidgeot, then Kantonian Rattata Kantonian Raticate, then Alolan Rattata Alolan Raticate, then Spearow Fearow, then Ekans Arbok, then Pichu Pikachu Kantonian Raichu Alolan Raichu, etc.

@Alex: There is already an option to do that for the Level Ball (appears below the ball dropdown if you select Level Ball)! The Nest Ball doesn't need it, since it doesn't depend on your Pokémon's level, only the level of the Pokémon you're trying to catch.

Alex

You should add an options for the Nest Ball/Level Ball that lets you put your Pokémon’s level.

It is with immense gratitude that I reflect on the importance of this website in my life. Since I discovered it, it has become an invaluable source of information and resources that have helped me in many areas. The wealth of content available is truly impressive, and with each visit, I feel inspired by the new knowledge I acquire. The interactions with other users are also extremely valuable, as they provide an environment for collaborative learning. In such a dynamic world, where it is easy to feel lost or uninformed, having access to a space that promotes the exchange of ideas and personal growth is a true gift. Therefore, expressing my gratitude for this website is just one way of acknowledging the positive impact it has had on my journey.

About May and Max's names and Hoenn remakes being released directly after X and Y versions: May and Max have identical names in English, except for the last letters (X and Y). On reddit, I remember someone jokingly mentioning this as a conspiracy.

@Gabimendas: That's already an option; when you select Repeat Ball, a checkbox appears below it that says "Do you have this Pokémon registered in your Pokédex?"

Gabimendas

We should have the option on the repeat ball to select "have you caught this pokemon before?"

See you added gender differences. Good.

Ash

That's so sad :(

Ash

This is such a good theory

kind of cool that you made the Tao trio before they existed

Great essay. I've always loved your writing (I'm pretty sure that's how I found this site many years ago, by looking for interesting and well-written fanfics). I sympathize with the loss of the original Jolteon. Though I haven't played any Pokémon games in years, at the time I was also attached to my teams in the various cartridges I had.

Please add safari and sport ball to gen 9 calculater

cool website

Do you agree that the supermarket's attempts to trademark Iceland is the worst trademark attempt ever? And how do you think it would affect the country if the supermarket did manage to get the trademark?

The Ultra Ball has a lower catch rate than the Great Ball under certain conditions, such as when the Pokémon is at full health or has a high catch rate. Under other conditions, Ultra Balls are better. You can see the Gen I Capture Mechanics page for an explanation of how it works and the ability to generate graphs of how the odds of capture change for the different balls as you lower the Pokémon's HP.
