Pokemon Data Scraper (PokeAPI)

Pokemon Data Scraper (PokeAPI) — a fast, reliable pokemon scraper that needs no API key. You pay only for the results you get: failed or empty runs are always free.

This pokemon scraper runs on the Apify platform, so you can call it from the API, run it on a schedule, or export results to JSON, CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets.

What this scraper does

• Extracts structured pokemon data with no browser or API key required
• Returns clean JSON, one record per result — ready for sheets, databases, or apps
• Pay-per-result pricing: you are never charged for a run that returns nothing
• Runs on demand or on a schedule, and integrates with 5,000+ apps via the Apify API and webhooks

What data you get

Each result record includes fields such as:

• Id (id) — e.g. 25
• Name (name) — e.g. "pikachu"
• Height (height) — e.g. 4
• Weight (weight) — e.g. 60
• Base Experience (baseExperience) — e.g. 112
• Types (types) — e.g. ["electric"]
• Abilities (abilities) — e.g. ["static", "lightning-rod"]
• Hidden Abilities (hiddenAbilities) — e.g. ["lightning-rod"]
• Stats (stats) — e.g. {"hp": 35, "attack": 55, "defense": 40, "special-attack":...
• Sprite Url (spriteUrl) — e.g. "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PokeAPI/sprites/master...
• Species (species) — e.g. "pikachu"
• Url (url) — e.g. "https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/25"
