Frequently asked questions
Which Pokémon are on the wheel?
The original 151 from Generation 1 (Red, Blue and Yellow), in Pokédex order from Bulbasaur to Mew. Each has an equal chance.

Yes. Paste any Pokémon names into the entries box, one per line. The wheel holds up to 500 entries.
How do I build a random team of six?
Spin six times and press "Remove from wheel" after each pick so you don't get duplicates. That's your challenge team.
