Squridle

The address opens the free variant of Squirdle, the one the day's page calls Free Play. The displayed title is Squirdle, subtitled "A Pokémon Wordle-like", with two links to Daily and Stats Edition. The instructions announce nine attempts, the input field asks "Who's that Pokémon?" and a Submit button validates. Below the input are a "Pokémon Info ON" button, eighteen type badges and a Single-Type badge, then the line that really sets this page apart: "Guess Pkmn from gen [ ] to [ ]", two generation bounds, followed by a "New Game" button that restarts a game whenever you want. An Emoji Key link and an advanced filters guide complete the set. In the footer, the five flags for Pokémon name languages and the credit Fireblend.

1. Set the generation range in the "Guess Pkmn from gen ... to ..." line if you want to limit the pool.
2. Start a game with the New Game button.
3. Type a name in the "Who's that Pokémon?" field and confirm with Submit, up to nine times.
4. Restart as many games as you want with New Game, without waiting for the next day.

It's Squirdle's training ground, and it's worth a visit for one key reason: the generation range. Nine guesses against the entire roster is one thing; nine guesses limited to the generations you've actually played is another, and the slider is in your hands. The New Game button chains games without waiting until midnight, making this the right place to learn to read the Emoji Key before spending your daily guess elsewhere.

The official Emoji Key defines the board feedback: green marks a correct guess, red marks an incorrect guess, yellow marks a type in the wrong position, and up/down arrows indicate whether a guessed value is too low or too high. The board also exposes explicit win and loss messages, including the secret Pokémon after a loss.

Free Play

The page opened by the root URL: generation bounds, New Game button, consecutive games without a daily limit.

Daily

Link in the title bar, to the day's Pokémon and its nine attempts valid for the day.

Stats Edition

Third link in the title bar.

• The two generation bounds are the real difficulty setting on this page. Limiting yourself to the generations you know turns an impossible game into a playable one, and the New Game button lets you retry immediately.
• This is the page to use for practice: unlike the daily version, it doesn't consume your single daily guess.
