For now pokedex-cli is not compatible with Python 3.
@tommyp1ckles has a branch which fixes the incompatibilities, I will test it and merge it when I have the time.

For now, either try the branch or use Python 2! :)

Same issue rn, it doesn't work with python 3.

The branch mentioned on the reply from 2016 is not working either.
I managed to fix this myself with help of ChatGPT and i will be creating a pull request.
I hope the author sees this!
