I'm aware showdown has a multiple alternative URLs such as sim.smogon.com-80.psim.us (I think that was one).
Could someone list all of them?

Also is there a way to connect to a showdown server not through psim.us? (for partially offline coding, blocked psim.us)
Specifically, I'd could use Pokemon-Showdown-Client-master's testclient.html instead of psim.us I think, but any server not localhost automatically goes through psim.us.

Thanks! ^-^

You can use testclient.html with other servers if you know their configured address (for long .psim.us names I think this is just the name without .psim.us but for registered servers you'd need to find it out another way); if you add ?~~ and the server's address to the URL then it will connect to that server instead. Note that it's possible that there are features not supported by the test client.
 
Hi, I laddered extensively under the alt "till i collapse" circa ~2013 and used it as my main suspect alt for uu/ru/ubers tests. I tried to log into it for the first time in several years last ru suspect round, but received the following message:

I'm not quite sure what it means; idk if old/inactive alts are archived, but if I could get the username back that'd be fantastic :blobthumbsup:

e: thank you friend!!

That means the account has been disabled, you will have to make an admin request in order to reclaim it.
 
Hello, I was wondering if it's possible to obtain a name on Showdown if the account has been inactive for years? I've always gone by this name, but unfortunately it's taken. They haven't been on in about 5 years.
 
Being able to view roomlogs would make roomauth promotions a lot easier since we'll be able to check activity levels and such, so why is it restricted to global + and up?

Room logs will eventually become part of the PS client, the same way /modlog already is. It might take some time, but that's a planned feature.
 
When roar drags out a Pokemon in a replay, its cry doesn't play. Is this supposed to happen?
Cries are only used on PS for when a Pokémon is sent out or faints, not for every move where the cry is used in the games (Growl, Howl, Roar, Light Screen, ...)
 
well thats dumb its been 5 years lmao
Admins generally don't want to spend all their time resetting inactive names for every other regular user on this site, hence the requirements to get one reset
