What this adds

A complete Game-Boy-style Pokémon fan game in a new pokemon/ folder, using real public assets (PokeAPI sprites/cries/data). Nothing else in the repo is touched — the phone-gift site and Unity project are unchanged.

Play it

Browser: https://ehpurple.com/pokemon/ (deploys automatically when this merges to main; note the domain's DNS currently points away from GitHub Pages and needs fixing at the registrar)
PC offline: click "Download PC version" under the game → unzip → double-click index.html. No install needed; saves persist in the browser.

Features

All 151 Gen-1 Pokémon — authentic battle sprites (front/back), party icons, and real cries; genuine base stats, 18-type chart, level-up movesets, evolutions, catch rates, and growth curves baked from pokeapi.co (no internet needed at runtime)
Full adventure across 4 towns, 3 routes, and a cave: Professor intro + name entry → starter choice → rival battle → Verdant City (Boulder Badge, Rock gym) → Route 3 → Lakeside City (Cascade Badge, Water gym) → Granite Tunnel (Team Shadow story event with reward) → Summit Village → Victory Hall Champion battle vs your rival + credits roll
Lakeside is a full city: asphalt streets, crosswalks and concrete buildings, with explorable Arcade (Lucky Wheel mini-game — pay to spin for items/money/jackpot), Museum (readable exhibits), Café (one-time free gift), Apartments, and a Bus Station
Bus fast travel: bus stops in all four towns — pay a fare and ride to any city you've already visited
Badge-gated storyline with an objective tracker in the pause menu so you always know the next goal; gate NPCs point you to the right gym
No forced battles: trainers fight only when you talk to them — exploring is always safe
Auto-save after battles, map changes, heals, and purchases (plus manual save + exportable save codes)
Per-move battle animations: Scratch draws claw slashes, Ember/Water Gun throw projectiles that burst on impact, Thunder Shock drops a lightning bolt, Razor Leaf flings leaves, Growl emits roar rings, stat-ups sparkle, status powders sprinkle — mapped by move and type
Complete battle engine: Gen-1-style damage formula, STAB/crits/effectiveness, stat stages, PSN/BRN/PAR/SLP/FRZ + confusion, multi-hit/drain/recoil/priority/OHKO/Struggle, catching with the real capture formula and ball-shake animation, exp/level-ups (1.5× for a comfortable demo curve), move learning with replace prompts, evolutions, trainer AI, prize money, gentle blackout (−10% money)
Menus: Pokédex (seen/caught + flavor text), party + summary screens, bag, shop buy/sell, PC box, chiptune music & SFX, touch controls on mobile
Crisp pixel font with proper lowercase descenders and consistent uppercase naming like the original games

Bug fixes this round

Shared Center/Mart interiors now exit back to whichever town you entered from (previously always dumped you in the first city). Blackout respawns remember the correct town too.
