How Do You Get a Random Pokémon?
Choose a generation and how many Pokémon, then click Randomize. Each Pokémon appears with its picture, its Pokédex number, such as #025 for Pikachu, and its generation. Choose A team of 6 for a ready-made random team.
Random Pokémon make games fresh again. Players use them for randomizer challenges, Nuzlocke runs and “random team” battles. Artists use them for drawing practice, and fans use them for trivia and “who’s that Pokémon?” games. The tool covers all 151 Kanto and 100 Johto Pokémon.
Pokémon are picked on your own device. Pictures load from the public PokéAPI sprite collection. Every result uses your browser’s secure random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues), and nothing you type is sent to Teasoft.

| Generation | Region | Pokédex numbers |
|---|---|---|
| Gen 1 | Kanto | #001 to #151 |
| Gen 2 | Johto | #152 to #251 |
