terms & conditions

1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using Random Pokémon Picker ("the Website", "the Service"), you agree to these Terms and Conditions and accept responsibility for complying with any applicable laws where you live. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

2. Use License

You're welcome to use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes — browsing, playing the games, planning Pokémon teams, sharing links to specific pages, and so on. While using the site you agree not to:

• Scrape, mirror, or republish substantial portions of the site's data or pages
• Use the site or any of its content for a commercial purpose without permission
• Attempt to decompile or reverse-engineer the software running the site
• Remove copyright notices or other proprietary markings from the site
• Send automated traffic that bypasses our rate limits or degrades the Service for others

3. Disclaimer

The Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or available at any specific time.

Random Pokémon Picker disclaims all implied warranties including, without limitation, warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and accuracy of information.

4. Limitations

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Random Pokémon Picker or its operator be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including, without limitation, lost profits, lost data, or business interruption — arising out of or in connection with your use of (or inability to use) the Service, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

5. Accuracy of Materials

The materials on Random Pokémon Picker's website may contain technical, typographical, or photographic errors. We don't warrant that the materials are accurate, complete, or current, and we may update or correct content at any time without notice. Where the site relies on third-party data (e.g. Pokédex stats, type matchups), that data is provided in good faith but isn't guaranteed to be authoritative.

6. Third-Party Links

The Service may link to third-party websites, including social platforms (Twitter, Discord), data sources (Bulbapedia, Smogon, pokepast.es), and provider documentation. We don't control those sites, haven't reviewed all of their content, and aren't responsible for what they do or say. Following any external link is at your own risk and subject to that site's own terms and privacy policy.

7. Service Changes & Advertising

We may add features, remove features, or change how the Service works at any time. The Service may include advertisements, sponsored content, or affiliate links — clearly distinguishable from editorial content where required by law. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the change.

8. Modifications to These Terms

We may revise these Terms and Conditions from time to time. The current version is always available on this page, and the “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent revision. By continuing to use the Service after we post a change, you accept the updated terms. For substantive changes we'll try to flag the update visibly for a reasonable period.

9. Pokémon Trademark

Pokémon and all related names, images, and content are registered trademarks of Nintendo, Game Freak, and Creatures Inc. This website is an independent fan project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or specifically approved by Nintendo, Game Freak, or Creatures Inc. The Service is intended for informational and entertainment purposes only.
