FAQ
Q. Why?
PokemonTV exists on a number of devices but not on all. If your device has a webbrowser, you can just go to and watch the current content online.
Must Read
It was necessary to work with the API because certain browsers lack support for displaying the official website, especially on the Nintendo Switch.
Q. But a Nintendo Switch client already exists?
Yes, that's true. But people with a banned console or those who use 90DNS to stay hidden from Nintendo have no way of watching the content.
Q. How does it work?
The API branch fetches the complete content of the API from each language and stores it because direct access to the API from a browser throws CORS errors.
The main branch is the source-code of the website. Its build with the Vue3 framework and Bootstrap5. A GitHub Action compiles the source and pushes it to the gh-pages branch.
The gh-pages branch is the compiled source-code of the main branch and is whats used on the website.
The switch-client branch is the source-code of the homebrew for the Nintendo Switch. The homebrew just opens a simple webbrowser and loads the the website.
