Repokémon – Showcase of GitHub Repos with Pokémon Names

These are some of the best repos actually <i>about</i> Pokemon<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;pret&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;pret&#x2F;</a>

I had a project[1] that was named after a Pokemon. It was a mustache[2] parser so I named it Entei because he has a very fashionable mustache. I changed the name[3] to chevron because I didn&#x27;t want to deal with Nintendo&#x27;s lawyers.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;noahmorrison&#x2F;chevron" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;noahmorrison&#x2F;chevron</a> [2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mustache.github.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mustache.github.io&#x2F;</a> [3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;noahmorrison&#x2F;chevron&#x2F;commit&#x2F;42a028f597171e3ef9eacad8be5b79099c048c75" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;noahmorrison&#x2F;chevron&#x2F;commit&#x2F;42a028f597171...</a>

Would a company send a DMCA notice for a github repo whose title is a trademarked character&#x27;s name? (Is there a MickeyMouse project?)

Ever since learning how Java&#x27;s Swing got its name[0], Pokemon are actually my go-to for project codenames. They&#x27;re fun and memorable, and Nintendo is litigious enough that there&#x27;s no way you can actually release something with the name of a pokemon.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogs.oracle.com&#x2F;thejavatutorials&#x2F;entry&#x2F;why_is_swing_called_swing" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogs.oracle.com&#x2F;thejavatutorials&#x2F;entry&#x2F;why_is_swing...</a>

What happens when many repos by different Github users have the same pokémon&#x27;s name?

I&#x27;m sorry but could someone explain to me the point of this?<p>I can see it be amusing to have repos with pokemon names, but for practicality, I would have no idea what they are for by reading the name.

This is cool! Is there a way to sort by popularity?

How does it find the repositories?
