Rhyperior • Generation VIII Pokédex

Scarlet/Violet support is in the works!

This has been something that I've been wanting to update for awhile, and it is my current project to implement support for the new games and The Teal Mask DLC. Thank you for your patience as I work on this over the coming week or two!
