Nuzlocke Generator

Overview:

The Nuzlocke Generator is a web application that allows users to record and track their progress in Nuzlocke challenges, a popular variant of Pokémon gameplay. It offers features such as saving data on each Pokémon, flexible style editing, custom moves and rulesets, importing from actual save files, and more. The application can be run locally by installing NodeJS and Git, and it is available for download on GitHub. Please note that some features may still be in beta and could potentially corrupt data.

Features:

• Record your nuzlocke with a flashy image: Users can capture their nuzlocke progress by attaching a flashy image to each entry.
• Save data on each of your Pokémon as a json file: The application allows users to save detailed information about each Pokémon they encounter during their nuzlocke challenge.
• Flexible style editing for multiple scenarios: Users can customize the style of their nuzlocke entries to suit different scenarios or personal preferences.
• Custom moves, rulesets, badges, types, and more!: The Nuzlocke Generator provides options to customize moves, rulesets, badges, types, and other elements of the gameplay.
• Import from your actual save files!: Users can import data from their actual Pokémon game save files, allowing them to continue their progress in the Nuzlocke Generator.
• Enabling Sprites Mode in Local Instances: In order to access cross-origin images (images from non-nuzlocke-generator URLs), users need to set up their own instance of cors-anywhere and whitelist their localhost.
