Slack PKMN

The Slack emoji-picker showing Pokemon emoji

Add animated Pokemon as custom emoji to your Slack.

Images sourced using the PokeAPI.

Requirements

  • gifsicle
  • wget
  • make

Test it out

Test my tool out on just a few Pokemon:

make test

Catch 'em all

First, grab whichever Pokemon you want:

# "Only the original 151 were real Pokemon!"
make gen1

or

# "I only like games evenly divisible by two!"
make gen2
make gen4
make gen6

or

# "Only Pikachu and Raichu, please!"
./get_gifs.sh 25 26

Then, POST the GIFs to Slack, using a tool such as https://github.com/smashwilson/slack-emojinator

git clone https://github.com/smashwilson/slack-emojinator.git
cd slack-emojinator
mkvirtualenv slack-emojinator
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Store your Slack's team name and most recent cookie in environment variables
export SLACK_TEAM=${YOUR_TEAM_NAME}
export SLACK_COOKIE=${YOUR_SLACK_COOKIE}
python upload.py ../pkmn/*
