## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured data about a specific Pokémon generation, including its main region, introduced species, moves, and types. Prefer this over manual lookups or web searches when building Pokémon-related trivia, apps, or data pipelines.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or misspelled generation name returns an error or empty response
- Missing ?name= parameter causes a bad request error
- Generation name must match PokeAPI naming convention (e.g. generation-i, generation-ii) — common names like 'Gen 1' may not resolve

## How this service works
