Pokémon Showdown Roulette
Generate a random team with the roulette wheel and export it to Pokémon Showdown in seconds.
Random Team for Pokémon Showdown
Pokémon Showdown is the most popular online Pokémon battle simulator, used by millions of players for competitive battling, casual play, and challenge formats. One of the most fun ways to use Showdown is with a fully random team — and that's exactly what the Pokémon Roulette wheel is built for.
Our roulette generates a random team of 6 Pokémon from a pool of 1,025 across all 9 generations. You can filter by generation, type, or legendary status, then export the result directly in Pokémon Showdown team import format. No manual typing — just spin, copy, and paste.
How to Export Your Roulette Team to Showdown
Open the Team Builder Roulette
Go to the Team Builder page or use Quick Spin on the home page. Click "Spin Team (6)" to generate a full random team at once.
Set Your Filters (Optional)
Use the Generation filter to restrict the pool to a specific generation. Toggle off Legendaries for fairer matches. Leave everything open for maximum chaos.
Copy Showdown Format
Once your team of 6 is complete, click "Copy Showdown". This copies your team in Pokémon Showdown import format to your clipboard.
Import into Pokémon Showdown
Open Pokémon Showdown → click Teambuilder → click "Import/Export" → paste your team → save. Your roulette team is ready to battle.
Battle!
Use your random team in Randoms, Challenge Cup, or any Custom Game format. See how far your roulette team can go.
Roulette Formats for Showdown
Random Roulette Singles
Spin a full team of 6 with no filters. Works great in Anything Goes or custom challenges where any Pokémon is legal.
Gen-Locked Roulette
Filter by a single generation before spinning. Great for Gen 1 OU, Gen 3 OU, or any generation-specific format on Showdown.
Type Roulette Team
Use the Type Roulette to get a random type, then build a mono-type team. Perfect for Monotype format battles on Showdown.
No-Legendary Roulette
Uncheck Legendaries and Mythicals before spinning for a more balanced team suitable for standard OU or UU play.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the roulette export work with Pokémon Showdown's team builder?
Yes. Click "Copy Showdown" and the team is copied in the exact format Showdown's Import/Export feature accepts. Just paste and save.
Can I use the roulette team in ranked Showdown battles?
Yes, but you'll need to set moves, abilities, items, and EVs for each Pokémon in the Showdown teambuilder after importing. The roulette provides the Pokémon selection; Showdown handles the full set.
What formats work best with a random roulette team?
Free Battle, Anything Goes, Challenge Cup 1v1, and custom friend battles are the best fit. Standard OU/ranked formats require legal sets which you'll need to configure manually.
Can I spin for individual Pokémon instead of a full team?
Yes — use Quick Spin on the home page to spin one Pokémon at a time, then use "+ Add to Team" to build your team slot by slot.
