Counting Pokémon from a sample

A sample of 500 Pokémon has been generated, and three lists from this sample have been loaded into your session:

  • The names list contains the names of each Pokémon in the sample.
  • The primary_types list containing the corresponding primary type of each Pokémon in the sample.
  • The generations list contains the corresponding generation of each Pokémon in the sample.

You want to quickly gather a few counts from these lists to better understand the sample that was generated. Use Counter from the collections module to explore what types of Pokémon are in your sample, what generations they come from, and how many Pokémon have a name that starts with a specific letter.

Counter has already been imported into your session for convenience.
