The Pokedex App is a web application that allows users to search for Pokémon, add them to a personal Pokedex, and even simulate battles between selected Pokémon. The app uses a .NET backend and a React frontend to provide a seamless user experience. The backend now uses SQLite for data storage, making it easier to run on macOS and other platforms without additional database setup.
