How It Works

1. The server queries the PokeAPI endpoint: https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/{name}/

2. Extracts height, weight, and types from the response

3. Converts height from decimeters to meters/centimeters and weight from hectograms to kilograms

4. Formats and returns the Pokemon information to the client

Dependencies

• fastmcp: FastMCP framework for building MCP servers

• requests: HTTP library for making API requests

API Reference

The server uses the PokeAPI which is free and doesn't require authentication.
