This post talks about the newest Pokemon Go API, the Encounter Data API at pogoapi.net<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pokemon Encounter Data<\/h2>\n

When encountering a Pokemon there are a number of metrics that influence the catch rate, and what it does during the encounter.<\/p>\n

Some of these metrics affect the Pokemon does during the encounter. For example, base_flee_rate<\/code> is the chance that a Pokemon will run from the encounter each turn and base_capture_rate<\/code> is the base rate of capturing the Pokemon.<\/p>\n

The attack_probability<\/code> and dodge_probability<\/code> reflect the chance that the Pokemon will attack and dodge respectively. The min_pokemon_action_frequency and max_pokemon_action_frequency are the minimum and maximum time between an action.<\/p>\n

Getting the Pokemon Encounter Data<\/h2>\n

This API groups all the information that influences an encounter together.<\/p>\n

GET \/api\/v1\/pokemon_encounter_data.json<\/code><\/h3>\n

Returns a JSON array where each element is a dict containing attack_probability<\/code>, base_capture_rate<\/code>, base_flee_rate<\/code>, dodge_probability<\/code>, max_pokemon_action_frequency<\/code>, min_pokemon_action_frequency<\/code>, Pokemon ID, Pokemon name and optionally the form.<\/p>\n

The fields attack_probability<\/code>, base_capture_rate<\/code>, base_flee_rate<\/code>, and dodge_probability<\/code> are a value from 0 to 1. 0 represents 0% chance of it occurring each turn and 1 represents 100% chance. The fields max_pokemon_action_frequency<\/code>, and min_pokemon_action_frequency<\/code> are in seconds representing the maximum and minimum amount of time between an action.<\/p>\n

Example data<\/h3>\n
[\n    {\n        \"attack_probability\": 0.1,\n        \"base_capture_rate\": 0.2,\n        \"base_flee_rate\": 0.1,\n        \"dodge_probability\": 0.15,\n        \"max_pokemon_action_frequency\": 1.6,\n        \"min_pokemon_action_frequency\": 0.2,\n        \"pokemon_id\": 1,\n        \"pokemon_name\": \"Bulbasaur\"\n    },\n    {\n        \"attack_probability\": 0.1,\n        \"base_capture_rate\": 0.1,\n        \"base_flee_rate\": 0.07,\n        \"dodge_probability\": 0.15,\n        \"max_pokemon_action_frequency\": 1.6,\n        \"min_pokemon_action_frequency\": 0.2,\n        \"pokemon_id\": 2,\n        \"pokemon_name\": \"Ivysaur\"\n    }, ...\n]<\/pre>\n
The full documentation is available on the PoGoAPI.net documentation page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
