Tools we use + creators we recommend
Hundo Hunter is one slice of a much bigger ecosystem. These are the sites, tools, communities, and creators we lean on — and the ones we recommend to players who want more coverage than our scanner + tier-list can give. We list them respectfully. Most link back. 1 already do.

Hundo Hunter rides on community data. These are the projects we back with recurring donations and pull requests — because if any of them quietly stops updating, a meaningful slice of this app degrades within 48 hours.
- PokéMiners — Patreon $20/month. Pull requests for data gaps we discover via our scanner.
- LeekDuck — Event tips submitted via their form. Visible attribution on every event card and the /events feed.
- ScrapedDuck — Ko-fi $20/month. Schema improvement PRs + stale-data bug reports.
Receipts public on request. Full playbook in docs/COMMUNITY-CONTRIBUTE-BACK.md.
If you run a mons-adjacent site, tool, or channel and want to be considered for this page, email hello@hundo-hunter.com. Include a one-line description, your URL, and (if applicable) where on your site you'd be open to listing us back. We aim for genuinely complementary tools — not link farms.
Disclosure: no partner has paid for placement. Reciprocal links are the only thing we ask in return, and we list people regardless of whether they accept.
