Darnell I hope you know that has been implemented already. As for a rooms command I can implement that if there is a desire that makes me do it. Or if I stop being a lazy shit. Tagging Scene to let him know about /staff if he doesn't already.

/rooms sounds best to be perfectly honest, /chatrooms is so 'formal' to me, thoughts?
 
I would like to suggest a command that show's resistance of a type. (For example: /resist (Type 1), (Type 2 if its a dual type). Or even just /resist [pokemon] would do fine). If there is such a command, forgive me for asking haha. Personally, I already know what resists what, but maybe for new users to Pokemon in competitive play or even Pokemon in general who cannot remember it would be really helpful for them. Opinions?

Wow, I actually didn't know it was implemented :D Nice and /rooms command already does something which is why I didn't suggest it by the way, it shows the rooms you are in iirc. I'm sure Scene knew about it, it was probably just me :)

You mean the like the /weak command ?
 
No I mean for resistance. Like, Grass resist water.
This command works with weaknesses but it doesn't work with resistances unless i'm badly mistaken
Sorry, you may have misunderstood because I typed it out wrong, I understand the difference, I was just wondering if we were going to leave it to one specific type like the /weak command rather than two. I like this suggestion though for newcomers even though it seems pretty basic.

Oh, I see what you mean and yea it does seem rather basic, but it would be a neat command if for ever reason you can't remember what resist's what.

You can use the /eff command, e.g /eff fire, rock and it would show that fire is 0.5x effective on rock, it can also be done with moves e.g /eff earthquake, magnezone and it would show earthquake is 4x effective against magnezone
 
Something that I would like to see is a Weight and/or Grass Knot/Low Kick BP indicator in the current /data command. Quite frankly, most of us are lazy people who don't want to look up Grass Knot's base power to determine what to run on our Greninja/whatever, so I think this would just be a convenience. This could go to the right of the BST total, labeled in whatever measurement scale is convenient (or a number in the case of BP), or in a new line below the base stats. It's not something super-high priority, but it's still something that would be nice to see.
 
You don't really need to hunt them down on the user list; you can use control+f or /user [username], or if you've been chatting with the user in the PM you can click on their name and click "challenge".

This doesn't work, just saying. Just tested on main with a friend, and there is no way to re-challenge from a chat window unless its a command which I don't know.

This is actually a feature on the IRC bots (like TiBot) and it simply says GK/LK Power: 20 etc in their !data information.
 
You need to get your friend to pm you, so in the chat window you can click on their name and the click challenge.
 
Are you sure...I've done it many times before.

Okay... I take it back. When you said "Name" I thought you meant in the title bar of the chat window (like any normal person). Not the name in the ACTUAL chat window. That seems a bit ass backwards, but whatever. Cheers.

I believe you can also type /challenge yourfriendsname, if not in the PM window then in the lobby chat.
 
1. Generation 6 Analyses! Please, Pokemon Showdown! needs the Kalos Analyses. I'd be willing to help with some.
2. The Pokemon in the Teambuilder are 3D.
3. More Trainer Sprites to choose from.
4. Custom Costumes on Pokemon (I.E - Mewtwo's Power Suit [Given by Giovanni].)
5. Regular users can get Custom Sprites as well.
6. A New Rank! A rank with a star could be something like a Lobby only ranking. it would be greater than a Voice, but less than a Driver, being only able to Mute and Warn, not ban and/or lock users.
7. A Color Change system. (Change your name's color with a color palette.)
8. A room for spammers to be redirected to.

Thank you for reading! I hope you can at least consider 1 of these suggestions!

1) http://www.smogon.com/forums/forums/ou-analyses.255/
2) Seems like a bit much for something where you are going to be editing your teams and no one is going to see anyways.
3) People suggested the 6th gen ones but it obviously didn't happen due to them being 3D sprites, unlike the previous generations.
4) I don't see how custom costumes would really be needed in anyway, are you talking about making the Pokemon look good?
5) Not happening, it is sort of a privillage for staff for their contributions, if this was to happen I'm pretty sure Zarel would go crazy.
6) ....?_?
7) Pretty much the same as 5.
8) http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/spammer-thread.3507179/

  1. Those are by Smogon, and the site is being redeveloped, so it shouldn't be too long now.
  2. The Teambuilder can already get laggy, so I don't know if now's the best time to include that.
  3. Nearly all gen 4/5 sprites are included, and to include gen 6 sprites they'd have to be sprited from scratch by Layell and his team, which he currently hasn't expressed any interest in.
  4. I don't think that's in any immediate plans.
  5. Zarel has to include them manually, and it would be difficult to handle all the requests.
  6. There's no point in that.
  7. It would be too easy to impersonate staff.
  8. That's been thought about, yes.

1. In the works.
2. There are the gen 5 sprites. The gen 6 models would require a bit more work just for a cosmetic effect. Also lag is an issue.
3. This has been suggested many many times [about 1000 I'd say] in the past, and it isn't happening.
4. This would require a lot of work which Layell does not want to do, so it isn't happening.
5. See 3.
6. I'm pretty sure this won't be implemented, solely because driver is good enough.
7. See 5.
8. Already been suggested and denied.
 
IMO there should be a command to automatically join rooms when you log in(something like /autojoin), similar to the one on IRC. It'd be convenient as you won't have to /join every room you're usually in every time you join.
I support.

I did see an /autojoin command in the GitHub but even as I tried it, it didn't work/was useless. It's really time-saving tbh.
