Pokemon Wordpress Plugin for Pokedex

Have you ever wanted your own Pokemon Pokedex? Today I'll show you an example of how to program a Pokedex on WordPress. This script provides a basic structure for a WordPress plugin that allows scraping Pokedex data from a specified URL, displaying the scraped data in text areas, and providing a button to publish the data as a new WordPress post. Note that the actual scraping logic and publishing process may vary based on the specific requirements and structure of the Pokedex website. Replace the example logic with appropriate code for your use case.

// Hook to add menu in the WordPress admin dashboard
add_action('admin_menu', 'pokedex_menu');

function pokedex_menu() {
    // Add a menu item under "Posts" in the admin dashboard
    add_submenu_page('edit.php', 'Pokedex', 'Pokedex', 'manage_options', 'pokedex_page', 'pokedex_page_callback');
