@pkmn's unofficial APIs for Smogon's analysis,
moveset, and usage statistics data.
Smogon does not officially provide any API for third party developers, and is at liberty to make breaking changes to its internal data representations at any point - this project attempts to provide a stable way of accessing the data Smogon exposes on its site. Two packages are provided:
smogon: A low-level wrapper around Smogon's analysis and statistics endpoints used to ergonomically fetch raw data via point queries from the source.@pkmn/smogon: A rich client for the processed and aggregated Smogon analysis and moveset information available at https://data.pkmn.cc.
https://data.pkmn.cc contains several curated datasets pulled from Smogon
and Pokémon Showdown which have been processed to allow for efficient batch access of analysis,
sets, and statistics data by format or generation. Analysis and set data is refreshed
automatically every 24
hours, the best stats
data for each generation is converted each month into
@pkmn/stats's optimized output
format, and information about Pokémon
Showdown’s standard Random Battle formats from
https://pkmn.github.io/randbats is updated hourly. This data can
be accessed directly, though the @pkmn/smogon package is recommended for simplifying the data
handling.
While this project's code is distributed under the terms of the MIT License and the aggregated stats information is freely available in the public domain, the set and analysis data is copyrighted by Smogon and its contributors.
