About
Analysing the numerical attributes and elemental identities of the world's most iconic digital creatures offers deep insights into the mechanical evolution of a global franchise. Spanning the history of the series from its inception through to its eighth iteration, these records provide a detailed look at the base statistics that define combat effectiveness and rarity. By centralising data on power, speed, and resilience for over a thousand unique entities, the collection serves as a vital resource for understanding game balance and the progression of character design across decades of development.
Columns
- Pokedex No.: The standard numerical identifier assigned to each creature within the national index.
- Name: The specific moniker of the creature.
- Type: The primary elemental affinity, such as Water or Fire, defining the creature's strengths and weaknesses.
- Other Type: The secondary elemental affinity; this field contains null values for creatures with only one type.
- HP: Hit Points, representing the total health and stamina of the creature.
- Attack: The physical power used for standard offensive manoeuvres.
- Defense: The ability to resist and mitigate physical damage from opponents.
- Special Attack: The potency of elemental or non-physical offensive abilities.
- Special Defense: The resistance against special or elemental-based assaults.
- Speed: The attribute that determines which creature acts first during a tactical encounter.
- Total: The aggregate sum of the six base statistics, providing a general measure of overall power.
- Generation: The specific era of the game series (1 through 8) in which the creature was first introduced.
- Legendary: A binary indicator where 1 denotes a rare legendary status and 0 denotes a standard creature.
Distribution
The information is delivered in a single CSV file titled
pokemon-data.csv, which is approximately 54.8 kB in size. The record set consists of 1,045 unique entries across 13 distinct columns. The data exhibits high integrity with a 100% validity rate for names, pokedex numbers, and primary statistics, ensuring a reliable resource for analysis. This is a static archive intended for annual updates to capture future releases.Usage
This resource is ideal for performing exploratory data analysis to identify trends in power scaling or "power creep" across different eras of the franchise. It is well-suited for building predictive models to classify creatures based on their stats or for developing recommendation engines for competitive team building. Additionally, software developers can use the structured format to populate databases for gaming applications, while educators can utilise the familiar subject matter to teach basic statistical concepts and data visualisation techniques.
Coverage
The scope is inclusive of all eight generations of the franchise, from the earliest entries to the more recent additions in Generation 8. It covers a diverse range of 1,045 unique creatures, capturing 18 distinct elemental types and their various combinations. The data provides a thorough representation of both common and legendary entities across the entire historical timeline of the series up to the point of collection.

Who Can Use It
Game analysts can leverage these records to study the mathematical balancing of character attributes over a long-term series. Enthusiasts and competitive players may utilise the statistics to optimise their strategies and compare the effectiveness of different team compositions. Furthermore, students of data science can use the clean, well-structured metadata to practice feature engineering, such as determining which stat combinations most strongly correlate with legendary status.
