title: async / await fetch in node-js
body: <pre><code>const fetch = require("node-fetch"); 
  
  async function getPokemon() {
    const response = await fetch('https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/1');
    console.log(response);
    return response;
  }
  
  getPokemon();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am not sure this is working.
  I get back:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Response {

  <p>is this the object I'm looking for? Or is this just the promise that I get back? </p>
  
  <p>I was expecting something like:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://pokeapi.co/" rel="noreferrer">https://pokeapi.co/</a></p>
  
  <pre><code>height:7
  held_items:
  id:1
  is_default:true
  location_area_encounters:"https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/1/encounters"
  name:"bulbasaur"
  order:1
  name:"bulbasaur"
  url:"https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon-species/1/"
  // and more
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm not sure what the problem might be, maybe I am misunderstanding something about async await in node? Sorry for being a beginner, thanks a lot in advance!</p>
