WhosThatMon - The Wordle of Pokémon: daily puzzle, speed mode, and more

by•
A free daily Pokémon silhouette puzzle: Wordle, but for Pokémon. One new silhouette each day with progressive clues (type, generation, species, flavor text) and 6 attempts. Share spoiler-free results. Three extra modes: Unlimited rounds, Speed (60-second sprint, gets harder as you go), and Cry (guess from the audio alone, brutal). All 1,025 Pokémon across Gen 1–9. No account, no ads, works on any device.

Hey everyone! I'm the solo developer behind WhosThatMon. I grew up watching the "Who's That Pokémon?" segment before every commercial break and always wished there was a proper game around it. Wordle showed that a simple daily puzzle with shareable results can become a genuine habit, so I built the Pokémon version. Some things I'm proud of: - The daily puzzle uses progressive clues that genuinely help you narrow it down without giving it away - Speed mode is surprisingly addictive, 60 seconds, easy Pokémon first, harder ones as you go - Cry mode is way harder than you'd think (especially Gen 5+) - Anonymous-first architecture, all state lives in localStorage with server persistence as a durability layer, no signup friction - No login, no ads, no paywall, just open and play - Runs on optional tips via Ko-fi (ko-fi.com/whosthatmon), strictly optional, no perks behind it The tech stack: Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind, Framer Motion, Neon Postgres, deployed on Netlify. Everything runs serverless. I'd love to hear what you think, especially which Pokémon stumped you!
