Enhance Your GitHub Profile with a Pokémon-Inspired Dynamic Profile Card
Looking to add a fun and visually appealing element to your GitHub README? I’ve developed a unique, Pokémon-themed profile card generator that brings your stats to life in a vibrant, interactive way—directly within your GitHub profile.
What Makes It Special?
- Customizable animated profile cards styled after Pokémon, making your README stand out
- Supports 18 distinct Pokémon types, allowing you to personalize your card’s theme
- Displays real-time GitHub statistics such as followers, repositories, stars, and recent activity
- Seamlessly integrates into your README files without the need for external screenshots
- Embeds your profile picture as a base64 image for a smooth, cohesive look
Getting Started is Simple
To include your dynamic profile card in your GitHub README, insert the following Markdown snippet, replacing “YOUR_USERNAME” with your GitHub handle:

You can customize the card’s Pokémon type by modifying the ‘type’ parameter, choosing from options like ‘water’, ‘electric’, ‘dragon’, and more.
Examples of URL configurations:
- Fire type:
?type=fire - Water type:
?type=water - Electric type:
?type=electric - Dragon type:
?type=dragon

Why I Created This
Most existing solutions rely on static images or external hosting to showcase GitHub stats, which can be cumbersome. My generator produces dynamic SVG cards with up-to-the-minute data fetched directly from the GitHub API, offering a sleek, hassle-free experience that integrates seamlessly into your profile.
Would you consider using a Pokémon-themed profile card for your GitHub profile? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
