Location-based Pokémon with Node.js
summary
Prototype mobile location‑based Pokémon runs on Node.js and displays maps with Leaflet and Overpass API, extracting OpenStreetMap natural features (water, trees, sand) to classify terrain. Pokémon come from a public Pokémon API, chosen randomly from the first 151 and filtered by terrain, fights are a minimal proof‑of‑concept with instant catch always succeeding, the demo works live on device, and legal risk from Nintendo remains unresolved.
