Looking for data

    Hello all. This isn't about a game, exactly, but I'm trying to find a more complete set of Pokédex data for a desktop Pokédex I wrote as a hobby project. This forum won't let me post a link, but it's the second result on Google for "PocketDex".

    At the moment, I'm in need of:

    • TM/HM Compatibility. I have Machine-Move association, but not per-monster compatibility.
    • Items. I have item-monster association, but no names for the items themselves. 83 seems to be a Thunder Stone, 94 seems to be Honey, et cetera.
    • Anything from Platinum
    • Anything from HeartGold/Soulsilver, though it's probably too early for this
    I would be very appreciative if anybody could point me toward a source for any of this :)
     
    Bulbapedia is a nice site, but as far as I can tell there's no way to extract data from it in a machine-readable format. That would mean re-entering all that data by hand which is not a very efficient use of my time or my idea of fun.

    Ideally, I'm after something like DExWS:
    pokecenter.com/dexws/?version=ruby&number=1

    or an easily parse-able table like the moves lists on serebii.net:
    serebii.net/diamondpearl/attacks.shtml

    Sorry for the odd formatting, but I'm still not able to post proper links.

    A little bit confronting.

    Yes, that was surprising and a little off-putting. Hopefully I'll overtake it one of these days.
     
    I have done a project like this, use poccils kit for the information, you don't even need RMXP sense the files are external, whcih also allows for easy updates :D
