I've built a comprehensive PokeDex for the browser-based game PokéRogue using Next.js. It's designed to provide detailed information for players and showcase some interesting technical challenges in web development.

Key features:

1. Built with Next.js using the App Router for improved performance and SEO

2. Multilingual support for 9 languages using i18n

3. Custom algorithms for type effectiveness calculations and biome path finding

4. Responsive design for desktop and mobile using Tailwind CSS

5. Server-side rendering for initial fast load and SEO, with client-side updates for interactivity

I'm an independent developer, and this project started as a personal tool but grew based on community feedback. I'm continually updating it to match game changes and improve functionality.
