Even gamefreak forgot finneon lmao On a serious note one thing I didn't think about is that dive isn't really realistic given that there's no magic "breathe underwater" item like there is in the anime / games. This makes encountering deep sea pokemon kind of difficult so the only way you could...

Beyond the last one being (apparently?) "Crown Flower" and the second being (at best) "Viscous Flower" or some corruption of "Hibiscus", the other two are mysteries, especially the third one. Maybe the first one is a corruption of "Plumeria"?

Not too big or anything, but something I never noticed because the word was spelled in kana is that the spelling of the word used for "Shrub" for the bizarre sprinkler Pokemon's category name (かんぼく / 灌木) has the first kanji as one that is also used for 灌水 (to spray water, especially onto plants...

Tinted Lens: The modifier of .5 would be changed to .75 presumably, given the comment. Water speed boosting item: Literally called "Speed Up in Rain Item" Choice scarf: yes that is choice scarf and specifically uses the choice item name Long list of items: what are you looking to see in that?

Super late on this thread, but some comments: Cutiefly's codename is abu; beeflies are referred to as ツリアブ (tsuri-abu); it is a beefly and this is a poor translation Wishiwashi's final name is actually "Yowashi", so I guess they had this one planned out for well in advance or the name stuck...

Big thanks to minibug on the discord for being kind enough to make an extremely convenient document that allowed me to easily analyze / translate this without having to dig through 10 different files. Documents exist from 10 dates: As far as I know, names only changed once. Pokedex...

People on discord suggested that Chimairan also has traits of Landorus-T, which should have been obvious in hindsight. C2H4 on discord gave a list of move changes, posting translations; proto translated > final english Hammer Punch > Hammer Arm Vengeance > Metal Burst [very similar name to...

Pokedex files, starting with the oldest version, 3-23-2006. Seems like the previous file was from this version. These have two versions; Diamond's comes first and Pearl's comes second. for my convenience, I'll just use "s" to denote a small phrasing difference and "r" for a larger rephrasing...

...Which legendary beast is Chimairan using as its base? The way its feet are posed is oddly familiar. I want to say it's Raikou, but maybe Entei? And fuck, so many of those beta designs are silly. My favorites are Probopass and Regigigas; regigigas is pretty much the monkey puppet reaction...

Just gonna add that the name of Submission++ is "Focus Tackle", going by naming conventions for Focus Punch / Blast

Looking through other files (there's a bunch of other revisions) casually, mostly just names (no full dex entries for this stuff til tomorrow): -B-pom as Ambipom's beta name is still there (per PBR pokemon names) -Lizargun is straight up greyed out and dummied out in the only instance it...

dex entries!

swagger klefki is kind of shit. sand attack that wears off after a few turns; yes it boosts your fp but it can provide a lot of other support that isn't memey ice shard vanilluxe is a poverty move I used in vgc11 to hit genies and that's pretty much it. 3 gens later, it prevents me from getting...

hex drifblim is that twave protect fake out last resort ambipom in the battle frontier in gen 4 made as a ploy to disadvantage you in the battle factory when battling against brainless ai solgaleo has a lot of potential for things it can do. like every legendary pokemon and especially like box...

iron head darmanitan is bloat; this is almost always bad, especially compared to superpower or almost any other move arctozolt without blizzard high key sucks; it's slow and without any way to make it faster / the opposing team slower it has a lot of weaknesses to strong moves and tends to...

eweb LO is common and it kind of sucks (ex rotom heat, heliolisk). I think the same is true of icy wind as well. eweb can be the only STAB on offensive pokemon which kind of sucks (heliolisk); probably worth adding to noSTAB or whatever that tag is virizon has helping hand and can probably...

Does Expanding Force's damage boost work like Rising Voltage's where the target has to be in the terrain for the damage to increase? Does it do spread move-reduced damage if it's acting as a spread move?

doubles requires more effort to make sets that aren't garbage, though, or else you'll end up with a million samey sets that reek of singles-itis. protect, follow me (/ rage powder), and other moves that have unique support purposes in doubles probably deserve a similar level of care, too.

why there's so much other hard coded shit in rands; why not fake out, especially considering how influential moves like it can be? I wouldn't even call this all that hard coded to begin with

slow pokemon with 4 attacks choice items (perrserker again) are bad. these items probably need a speed floor and pokemon that are this slow probably should not spawn with 4 attacks, assuming none of those attacks have priority. on fake out: short summary: not force conditions: 1) if it has...
