Animated Pokemon

To create a more in depth application, animated gifs of the seeded Pokemon are displayed instead of plain static images.

Thematic Visual Styling

Mimicking the original depiction of the Pokedex in the 1997 television series, the entire user interface is styled using HTML and CSS to give the user a feeling of full immersion into the world of Pokemon. Glare effects on the display screens are also another interesting detail that adds more of a three dimensional effect.
