Pokémon Assets

The highest quality Pokemon images.

Also it contains a smaller version of the dataset from PokeAPI for offline usage (Which I used in my web app).

This repository will be available as a public host for the highest quality Pokemon Images, specifically the Official Sugimori Artwork.

Built to work alongside the PokéAPI.

Main source is Bulbapedia for Images.

Currently Available:

All Forms Included

• Hisuian Forms
• Upto Gen VIII (Compressed)
• Upto Gen VIII HQ (Original Quality)
• Thumbnails
• DataSet from PokeAPI : Pokemon, Pokemon-Species, Moves, Abilities etc. in CSV and JSON format.

Source

WebScrapped from: Bulbapedia

Getting Started:

A. Directly Fetching Images from this Repository:

Fetch base forms:

SpeciesID.png (padded 000)

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HybridShivam/Pokemon/master/assets/images/001.png

For Alternate Forms:

SpeciesID-FormName.png

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HybridShivam/Pokemon/master/assets/images/006-Gmax.png https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HybridShivam/Pokemon/master/assets/images/254-Mega.png

Get the SpeciesID and Form-Name from PokeAPI and remember to follow Capital Casing with '-' delimiter.
e.g. 254-Mega , 800-Dawn, 569-Gmax, 413-Sandy, 006-Mega-X, 025-Rock-Star etc.*

Alternatively,

B. Scrape Image URLs from Bulbapedia using the scripts:

Just clone the repo or just download the src files.

# Install Required Libraries first
python -m pip install requests
python -m pip install beautifulsoup4

1. Fetch Image URLs using this script:

src/imageDownloader/ImageScrapper.py

This script fetches all base form URLs to URLs/URLs.txt and the logs the failed attempts to ImageScrapperFailedList.txt

Note: ImageScrapperFailedList.txt Contains all the failed names which could't be fetched due to exceptional naming in their page names like Mr. Mime's https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:122Mr._Mime.png

2. Downloading the Images from URLs.txt:

src/imageDownloader/Downloader.py

Use this script for Downloading images using the URLs.txt to downloads/id.png (Optional parameter ReDownloadOnlyCorruptedFiles to redownload only new/ corrupted files)

Note: ExceptionalURLs.txt and FormURLs.txt have been manually created, use any download manager to download using them.

C. Generating the DataSet from PokeAPI:

1. Just clone the repo or download just the src files.
2. Run src/dataSet/generateDataSet.py to generate the dataset. Note: .csv files are directly from the Veekun database.
