## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need canonical Pokémon species metadata — specifically capture rate, happiness, color, habitat, and flavor text — sourced from PokéAPI, without running your own PokéAPI integration. Ideal for Pokémon-themed apps, trivia bots, or data enrichment pipelines that need species-level detail by name.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown or misspelled Pokémon name returns an error or empty result
- Name must match PokéAPI slug format (lowercase, hyphenated for multi-word names)
- Non-Pokémon inputs return no data
