Emulating the game’s look-and-feel in a custom, improved browsing experience.
In 2015, after the release of the popular game by Niantic Labs, I teamed up with the super friendly team of r/pokemongo to improve readability, user experience, and streamline the layout.
I had so much fun emulating the look-and-feel of the game’s actual UI and blending it with Reddit’s user experience.

I made a different banner for the launch of gen 2 Pokémon, and helped the team create an ‘event mode’ particle effect to match the game’s petal animation.
The nightmode variant, which hasn’t been implemented yet.
I built on the ingame look-and-feel while integrating Reddit’s font limitations and expanding it with more interactions to fit a desktop use.
We came up with a few module experiments such as a sidebar Pokédex that we consider implementing one day.
