What is Who's That Pokémon??
Who's That Pokémon? is a free browser quiz based on the famous moment from the anime: you see a black silhouette and type the name of the Pokémon. Get it right and the next one appears, so the aim is the longest streak you can manage.
It covers all 1,025 Pokémon, and you can pick which of the nine generations to play. Five difficulty levels go from Easy to Elite, where you have to recognise the Pokémon by its cry, and a forgiving spelling mode accepts near misses. It also keeps stats such as your best streak and average time.
It works in English, German, French, Japanese and Chinese, and it has no ads and no signup. It is an open-source fan project, not affiliated with Nintendo.
