Crypto-grade fair randomness.How it works

What is the Random Pokémon Generator?

A random Pokémon generator picks a Pokémon for you from across the generations. Use it to choose a starter, build a surprise team, run a Nuzlocke-style challenge, or settle which Pokémon to draw or feature. Filter by generation and type to narrow the pool, toggle shiny for a rarer reveal, and switch on team-of-six mode to assemble a full randomized party with no repeats. Each result names the Pokémon; the picks are unbiased so every eligible Pokémon has an equal chance.

  2. Toggle shiny if you want shiny results.
  3. Choose a single Pokémon or team-of-six mode.
  4. Press Generate to reveal your Pokémon.
  5. Copy the result or the full team list.
