How the multi-select dropdowns work in the Random Pokemon Generator

Every filter in /random-pokemon-generator except Types and the toggles uses a multi-select dropdown. Each dropdown shows a Select All row at the top, one row per option, and a live label on the trigger that reads All {label}, No {label}, or N {label} depending on the current state. The label is your at-a-glance proof of what the generator is currently filtering on.

Step 1

Open /random-pokemon-generator and scroll to the Filters card. Five of the six controls are multi-select dropdowns: Region, Generation, Evolution stage, Legendaries, and Forms.

Step 2

Click any trigger to open its menu. The panel is Pokepedia-navy with white rows, and anchors directly under the trigger.

Step 3

Use Select All at the top to toggle every row at once. A half-filled red square on the trigger and on Select All means some rows are checked and some are not.

Step 4

Click any row to toggle it on or off. The trigger label updates immediately: All Legendaries, 2 Legendaries, or No Legendaries.

Step 5

Close the menu by clicking outside, pressing Escape, or clicking the trigger again. The match counter under Generate recomputes on every click so you can see the pool shrink live.

No Regions and No Generations mean nothing matches those filters, which will drop the match counter to 0. If that happens, reopen the dropdown and click Select All, or use Reset in the Extras bar.
