[Tool] PokeSuite: A Team Generator with Smogon Tiers & VGC Filters

[pokesuite]

Hi everyone,

Long-time lurker here. I wanted to share a web tool I've been working on that might be useful for Nuzlocke runs, Draft Leagues, or just generating ideas for your next team.

It’s called PokeSuite (https://www.pokesuite.com).

Why I built it:Most randomizers are just plain text lists. I wanted something that allowed for granular filtering based on competitive formats, while also being visually clean.

Features relevant to competitive play:

• Format Filters: You can generate teams specifically from the VGC Regulation pool or specific Smogon Tiers (OU, UU, RU, etc.).
• Data Accuracy: I'm pulling data via PokeAPI, but I've tried to implement the latest tier changes.
• Visual Team Building: Instant visual feedback on type coverage (basic view for now).
• Also includes a physics-based TCG pack simulator just for fun/breaks between laddering.

Request for the community:Since this is a new project, I'd love to know if the Tier Filters feel accurate to you. If you spot any Pokémon appearing in a tier they shouldn't be in, please let me know!

It's completely free and open-source-friendly (no ads/sign-ups).

Thanks for checking it out!

Just took a look at it, pretty sleek and cool.

I think it needs a few tweaks for it to be a better team randomizer option though. For example, the ability to not have repeated types on the same team, or limiting starters to only one.

Also, I'm not quite sure the battle format option works.

Arceus has always been an Uber-tier.

So yeah, it has a lot of potential, but it needs some adjustments.
