## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured metadata about a specific Pokémon game version group — such as which generation it belongs to, which individual game titles it encompasses, or which regions are featured. Prefer this over general Pokémon game searches when you already know the version group name (e.g. 'red-blue', 'sun-moon', 'sword-shield').

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or misspelled version group name returns an error or empty result
- Name parameter missing causes a 400 or default error response
- Obscure or fan-made version group names not in PokéAPI return no data
- Network timeout or upstream PokéAPI unavailability causes a 5xx error
