I don't think DMCA can be used for trademark infringement, just copyright.

Yes. I have previously made a simple Chrome extension that contained Pokemon stuff, but certainly derivative work that should not be considered copyright infringement. (The extension replaced facebook reactions with Pokemon faces, if you're wondering).
I got DMCA'd by Nintendo anyways. I didn't bother fighting it, since it wasn't worth my time for a one-day project. Nintendo of America has overzealous paralegals that WILL go DMCA anything pokemon related.

#9How does it find the repositories?
I wrote a script to call the GitHub search api for every single name https://github.com/cheeaun/repokemon/blob/master/scripts/rep...

Yeap, the one with most stars. I was thinking of getting most forks if say multiple repos with exact same number of stars, but I guess I was lazy.
