Very nice thing! I am doing similar project with my daughter - she is very into Pokemons.
The stack is completely different:

  • for the presentation layer I have chosen the bootstrap 4 and cards components that presents the pokemons or trainers at the main page. Home page is divided into several tabs (pokemons, trainers, etc.) using navbar component . Every pokemon has own page with details and modal that shows its stages/evolutions
  • database is simple json that my daughter happily populates using different internet resources
  • template engine is jinja2
  • pure js (that I am still learning) for the interactive part
  • the glue is python that generates the htmls from templates and prepare images etc
  • deployed to home asus router
