I built a quiz game to tell Pokémon from prescription drugs

[MyrinNew]

I built a small web game that asks players to guess whether a name is a Pokémon or a real prescription drug.


Play here: https://pokepill.net


🎮 How it works:

• A name appears (e.g. “Zyrtec”, “Garchomp”, “Xeljanz”)
• You guess Pokémon or Pill
• Faster answers earn more points
• Build streaks, unlock harder difficulties, and climb the leaderboard

🛠 Tech stack:

• React 19 + Vite
• Framer Motion for animations
• PokeAPI for Pokémon data
• Drugs.com for medication info
• Google Sheets API as a lightweight leaderboard backend

I built it mostly for fun and curiosity, but people seem to enjoy comparing scores and challenging friends.
