Exception Handling in C# Methods returning object
A lot of people have given you good replies, but have you looked at Refit?

Http calls on mobile, what is the preferred way / best practice
Another question that rises is, would it be better to use some HttpClient package to handle the requests, like Refit in combination with Polly. But then again, it seems Refit also uses the HttpClient factory, which was a bad thing according to the previous?

Refactor your dotNET HTTP Clients to Typed HTTP Clients
Define a Refit client interface with the following for each API endpoint, e.g. GET /foo:

HttpClient best approach
Use RestEase to create your own client library. Refit is a very similar and more popular library. IMO RestEase is an improvement over Refit and I prefer it, but either will solve your problems. Both are libs that have you build interfaces describing the API endpoints, then the library handles all the boilerplate code that calls HttpClient.

What your hidden nuget gems ?
Refit - simple, typed REST clients: https://github.com/reactiveui/refit

how to structure code for rest api calls
I'd advise using this https://github.com/reactiveui/refit tool for HTTP requests. It saves a lot of time for serialization, deserialization and exception handling.

Roadmap for transition from Java
Use Refit, and let manage the live of HttpClient. Also, Refit will give you a strongly typed client around an API. All you have to write is the interface. Ain't that neat ? If you can't, use the HttpClientFactory to create the HttpClient instance: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/architecture/microservices/implement-resilient-applications/use-httpclientfactory-to-implement-resilient-http-requests

Integration tests without API dependencies with ASP.NET Core and WireMock.Net
The controller is simple and use the Refit library to abstract the PokéAPI call and then, returns the data.

I love refit
To be fair, Refit is pretty great.
What are some alternatives?
RestEase - Easy-to-use typesafe REST API client library for .NET Standard 1.1 and .NET Framework 4.5 and higher, which is simple and customisable. Inspired by Refit
RestSharp - Simple REST and HTTP API Client for .NET
Cashew - A simple and elegant yet powerful HTTP client cache for .NET
Flurl.Http - Fluent URL builder and testable HTTP client for .NET
HttpClientGoodies - Useful utilities for the .NET HttpClient.
NSwag - The Swagger/OpenAPI toolchain for .NET, ASP.NET Core and TypeScript.
Ocelot - .NET API Gateway
Simple.OData.Client
WebApiClient - An open source project based on the HttpClient. You only need to define the c# interface and modify the related features to invoke the client library of the remote http interface asynchronously.
