Pokemon Showdown's default tooltips lack detailed type effectiveness and stat information; this extension overlays that data so players can make faster competitive decisions without external lookups

User installs the extension, navigates to play.pokemonshowdown.com (or psim.us), and when hovering over Pokemon to see tooltips, the extension automatically enriches those tooltips with type effectiveness data and base stats using MutationObserver to detect tooltip DOM changes.

Target users: Pokemon Showdown competitive players / Pokemon enthusiasts who want quick type matchup reference

Main logic file (pokemonShowdownTypeHelper.js) is heavily minified at 126KB, making deep code analysis difficult; function-level behavior inferred from manifest, store description, and keyword patterns
No background script present - all logic runs as content script, which is consistent with a simple DOM-manipulation extension

Monetization

No paid features detected

No payment, subscription, billing, premium, upgrade, or license keywords found in the source. The 'subscribe' hit in pokemonShowdownTypeHelper.js is from the Nano JSX templating library's reactive subscription pattern, not paid subscription logic. No Stripe, payment platform, or paywall detected. The extension appears to be a free, open-source community tool (GitHub support URL).

Confidence: 90
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: No
Reason: The extension is a content script that injects into Pokemon Showdown pages to enhance tooltips with type and stat info. No login UI, login API calls, or account management was found. The 'auth' keyword hits are from the standard browser-polyfill library (WebExtension API shim), not actual authentication logic. No cookies, tokens, or credential storage detected.
