Quick Start

Searching for Pokemon

Send a POST request with content JSON to https://cobblemon.tools/api/v1/pokedex/search

import requests

url = "https://cobblemon.tools/api/v1/pokedex/search"

request = {
  "types": ["fire"]
}

response = requests.post(url, json=request)

if (response.status_code == 200):
  print(response.text)

This Python example shows how to request every Pokemon that is a fire type. You can include multiple data points in your request to get a more specific list of Pokemon.

request = {
  "types": ["fire"],
  "implemented": True,
  "ev_yields": ["defence"]
}

This request would only return Pokemon who are a:

• A Fire Type
• Implemented in Cobblemon (have a model)
• Give Defence EVs when defeated

As of Cobblemon 1.4.0, this should just return Magcargo & Torkoal.

Lets edit our script to output the data in a prettier format.

import requests
import json
import pprint

pp = pprint.PrettyPrinter(depth=5)
url = "https://cobblemon.tools/api/v1/pokedex/search"

request = {
  "types": ["fire"],
  "implemented": True,
  "ev_yields": ["defence"]
}

if response.status_code != 200:
  print("Error getting data from API!")
  exit(0)

results = json.loads(response.text)
pp.pprint(results)

Running this (as of Cobblemon 1.4.0) will output:

{'results': [{'display_name': 'Magcargo',
              'form': 'normal',
              'generation': 2,
              'national_dex': 219,
              'types': ['fire', 'rock'],
              'url': '/pokedex/pokemon/magcargo'},
             {'display_name': 'Torkoal',
              'form': 'normal',
              'generation': 3,
              'national_dex': 324,
              'types': ['fire'],
              'url': '/pokedex/pokemon/torkoal'}],
 'status': 'ok'}
