Implement pokemon rarity in pokedex detail view / pokedex overview

PokemonGoers / Catch-em-all

Now that we have tons of data about Pokemon (what they are, where they are, what’s their relationship, what they can transform into, which attacks they can perform, aso) we want to integrate it all into a comprehensive website. This website should contain sections about each Pokemon and its details. Additionally, the website should register the user’s location and tell the user how close is that the predicted pokemon to him/her. Additionally you will be incorporating the apps that were created by project B,C and D into the website. Your group will need to create automated builds and testing for this apps and use continuous integration to pull in new changes in the code repositories. Apps from projects B-D should be packaged and made available on NPM. Ideally when you completed these tasks the webapp component would integrate the apps by “requiring’ them. Here is a possible user story: when a user opens the website or the app the current location of the user will be shown. Additionally, the website/app will show automatically where the pokemons that are currently active are and where the pokemons that we predict to active in the nearest future (i.e. within half a day) will be located (all of this will be available from the app developed in project D). Hopefully, the website will be somewhat crowded by that data. Then, there needs to be a menu bar or something available (e.g. above the map or on the right side to it) that will list currently active or predicted pokemons. Clicking on one of them will make other pokemons on the map disappear, except of this clicked one. Separate web pages would allow the search and presentation of individual Pokemons and the information we gathered about them, including third party data (project A) and twitter analysis (project C)

Implement pokemon rarity in pokedex detail view / pokedex overview #86

Hello everyone,

the rarity and appearance likelihood are now available on the API after our request (https://github.com/PokemonGoers/PokeData/issues/163) has been implemented.

We should discuss where specifically and how we want to use this data now - let's collect some ideas :)

johartl commented 8 years ago

Two ideas

The ranking we could show in the pokedex alongside the other Pokemon stats (e.g. CP, flee rate,..)
In the pokedex index page where all Pokemon are shown and/or in the Pokemon filter tab we could show a star-based indication of the Pokemon rarity. For instance, Pidgey gets one star and the legendary Pokemon get three stars. This lets the user spot rare Pokemon more easily.

I am working on something like this for the stats, maybe include rarity there? Or just another chart but use stars instead of a bar?

johartl commented 8 years ago

I wouldn't include it in these bars. These stats are all related to the Pokemon's abilities (How strong is that Pokemon). Just because a Pokemon is rare does not make it stronger so that shouldn't affect the Total value and I think we should place that information somewhere else. Also, can you create a legend for the stats (HP, ATK, ..) somewhere. I have no idea what SPA and SPD stand for. Or maybe just use the full name?

WoH commented 8 years ago

Well this is standard Pokemon lingo, so idk, but changing the title isn't gonna make or break it :wink:

AlexanderLill commented 8 years ago

I added the fields in the model and a basic overview over the rarity to the pokedex-detail-page for now (see #91)

AlexanderLill commented 8 years ago

@PokemonGoers/catch-em-all did somebody start with the visualisation for the pokewiki search page yet?

Are we doing the 3-stars-approach, or do we have better ideas? Is there maybe any visualisation that is used in the PokemonGo app already?

johartl commented 8 years ago

I don't think the PokemonGo app has a notion of rarity build in. After all, that's probably information they don't want to disclose so easily ;) I like the idea of using stars but I would also be open for other suggestions.

AlexanderLill commented 8 years ago

See a very simple implementation of this now in the PokeDex here: #96

I will close this issue after merging this PR.

AlexanderLill commented 8 years ago

PR #96 was merged.
