Terms of Use - Random Pokemon Generator

These terms govern your use of Random Pokemon Generator. They are written to be readable: by using the site you agree to them, so here is exactly what you are agreeing to.

The agreement

Acceptance & What This Site Provides

Acceptance of these terms

By accessing or using Random Pokemon Generator, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. Because the site has no accounts, acceptance happens through use rather than through a signup checkbox — the same model as most content and tool websites.

Ownership

Intellectual Property

Pokemon trademarks

Pokemon, Pokemon character names, and related marks are trademarks of Nintendo, Game Freak, and The Pokemon Company. This site is an unofficial fan project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of them. Official artwork displayed on the site is loaded from the public PokeAPI project and remains the property of its respective rights holders.

Our content

The site's original text, page design, and custom code are the work of the site maintainer. You may not republish the site's articles, tool interfaces, or code on another website without permission. The project's source is public on GitHub for transparency and learning; that visibility is not a license to rebrand the site as your own.

Your fair use

You are welcome to link to any page, quote short excerpts with attribution, share screenshots of your rolls and teams, and use the tools in streams, videos, and social posts — monetized or not. Sharing results is what the tools are for; the share links exist precisely so your squad rolls travel with you.

House rules

Acceptable Use

What you may do

Use every tool as much as you like, for any lawful purpose: planning Nuzlocke runs, settling draft picks, streaming challenge runs, teaching probability, or settling arguments about who gets the last team slot. Personal, educational, and content-creation uses are all explicitly welcome.

What you may not do

Do not scrape the site at a volume or rate that degrades service for others; do not attempt to disrupt the site or its hosting; do not frame the site's pages inside another product in a way that implies affiliation or endorsement; and do not use the tools to promote unlawful content. Automated access for search indexing and archiving is fine.

Third-party services

The site relies on third parties — PokeAPI for data and artwork, Vercel for hosting, and Google Analytics 4 for anonymous usage statistics. Your use of the site is also subject to those services' own terms where applicable. Outbound links lead to sites we do not control; their content and policies are their own responsibility.

The legal necessities

Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability

Provided as-is

The site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Stats, type matchups, shiny rates, and game mechanics are compiled from public sources and community research; games are patched and rebalanced, and fan data occasionally lags behind. For competitive play, verify critical numbers against official sources.

Randomness is random

Roll outcomes are produced by your browser's random number generator. The site makes no promise that any particular Pokemon will appear, and no liability attaches to the outcome of any roll.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the site maintainer is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the site — including lost data in browser storage, service interruptions, or decisions made based on the site's data. Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction is to stop using the site.

Accuracy of game data

Pokemon games change with each generation, and the data on this site follows the most recent core release in effect when a page was last updated. Depending on which game version you are playing, exact values can differ: a shiny rate from a specific generation, or a type matchup from a past entry, might not apply to your title. Every page links its data source, and clicking through to the source lets you confirm the version being described.

Third-party services and links

Tools that talk to external services — artwork delivery, cry audio, analytics — depend on those providers being up. Outage or behavioral change on their side is outside this site's control, and the maintainer accepts no responsibility for the content or availability of any linked third-party site. An external link is a pointer, not an endorsement.

Housekeeping

Changes & Contact

Changes to these terms

These terms may be revised as the site evolves — new tools, new data sources, new legal requirements. The current version is always the one published on this page, identified by the revision date at the top. Material changes are visible in the site's public commit history. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms.

Related documents

These terms work together with two other pages: the Privacy Policy, which explains what little data the site handles and how, and the About & Contact page, which describes the project and the people behind it. If anything here seems to conflict with those pages, the more specific document wins.

FAQ
