Pokemon Go API – Released Pokemon

This post talks about the latest API I have added to PoGoAPI.net, the released Pokemon list.

What is the released Pokemon List

Currently in Pokemon Go the majority of Pokemon have been released from the first three generations of Pokemon games. However there are a number of Pokemon that haven’t yet been released for a variety of reasons.

Some of these are because they are legendaries that have not been released such as the Regi’s (at the time of writing). Others are believed to be problematic to implement as they have special abilities or unique features.

Getting the released Pokemon names and ID’s

This will let you get a full list of currently released Pokemon.

GET /api/v1/released_pokemon.json

Returns a json dict with the keys being the pokemon ID, the values are an array containing the pokemon name and ID.

Example data

{
    1: {
        id: 1,
        name: "Bulbasaur"
    },
    2: {
        id: 2,
        name: "Ivysaur"
    },
    3: {
        id: 3,
        name: "Venusaur"
    }, ...
}

The full documentation is available on the PoGoAPI.net documentation page.
