Currently the only way to begin searching for pokémon information on this wonderful site is by clicking the search bar and then typing the query. By adding a hotkey such as pressing the '/' character to activate the search bar, users can more efficiently submit queries without having to lift a finger from the keyboard (if on a computer).
This is a common practice for search engine sites such as bing and google, so it totally makes sense for pokemondb to integrate as well. Since the change should be relatively small, I would also be more than willing to contribute it if possible.
