Hi, I plan to download several hundred thousand games for the development of a pokemon engine(particularly gen 9 natl dex), is there a preferred way for me to do this? Or is simply scraping the search api fine(obviously i would use reasonable rate limits and not just try to crash the servers)

How do i search for sprites ???
https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/
Ani are the animated sprites, the ones who say gen 1, 2, 3, etc, are the sprites of those generations. Afd are the joke sprites
This is more of a tournament doubt, but what time would be reasonable to wait until calling for an act? i just want to know
The rules state that in an individual tour (aka not a PL/WC/CL that kinda stuff) you are required to wait a minimum of 15 minutes. The team tour rules are more complicated, but in short it's either 20 minutes after a manager ping or 30 minutes after scheduled time, whichever is later. What you view as reasonable may be longer than that.
Is there a way to disable getting alerts?
By that I mean when you post a message onto a thread, can you stop getting notifications on anyone (not a specific person) responding to your message or reacting to your post?

Go to https://www.smogon.com/forums/account/preferences and either turn off the setting for automatically watching content you interact with or the individual alerts.
This is the effect of toggling BB code on. Toggling BB code back again should fix this.
Thank you for your help.
