    Hello Marty, I have created Ash-Lucario avatar...is it possible to for you to add this in avatar PS avatar list or let me know if there is any other process to submit this avatar.

    Hey Marty, I was curious to see if you can make a new avatar for PS! Like a Psychic in Violet clothing and aura around 4 pokeballs?

    Hi, a couple of things:
    1. Public avatars are based on actual Pokemon characters; if there's no character that fits the bill you're not going to see it available.
    2. I don't make avatars, I figured that was clear from all the "courtesy of [artist]" in those new avatar posts.

    ok thanks, just wanted a heads up

    Somehow in my years of browsing this website I never knew the person in your avatar jumped until now
    Happy 10th Smogon anniversary. Always a treat to discover long-time contributors who put so much into the site and keep finding time and motivation to make everyone's experience better. Tiering and so much more of the site owes a great deal to you and I've always been in awe of you, Marty!

    Wow, I logged in earlier and didn't even notice the date. Thank you so much for the kind words! Hearing that I've improved even one person's experience makes it all worth it! :blobthumbsup:

    Hey Marty, I saw that you were in charge of getting permission for using this package:
    https://www.npmjs.com/package/@smogon/sets

    Would it be possible to message you on Discord about that? My friend and I are building a new damage calc extension and we needed access to the latest Smogon sets if that's possible :)

    Could you refer me to where I can find the latest sets? Basically whatever data is fed into the Damage Calculator.

    Click the GitHub link at the bottom of the calculator page.

    Hi, bit of a “I’m curious” question - if you do chose, could you insert a mon pretty much anywhere in stats? Or would it be impossible to tamper with?
    Marty
    Marty
    Not sure what you mean exactly, but to falsify one Pokemon's stats you'd have to do it in every single file for that format; it would just be an obnoxious amount of effort.

    Ah, alright, that makes sense. Thank you!

    what’s a piece of advice for improving in the field of “not getting baited by trolls”?
    Marty
    Marty
    That message only makes sense to the people who had their posts deleted by replying to the troll post which was also deleted.

    Hi Marty, at the moment there are many Pokemon in the lower tiers that should belong to higher tiers. Thus, I suggest having full tier shifts and starting 3-month cycle from February to May, or even quick rises only on 1 Feb, will allow these Pokemon to rise to the tier where they belong, thereby better reflecting Smogon usage-based tiers as a whole.

    Hi, I've been pulling usage stats every two days this month and it's not actually as many Pokemon as you might think. Every time I check, a Pokemon disappears from the "full tier shift" list, so the tiers are balancing out nicely. A quick rise for the first month would be at 8.83%, and currently nothing relevant has reached that threshold. It's also poor form to be moving the goalposts at this point.

    Ok, thanks for the clarification.

    hi there! in the next usage stats update coming in a few months, would it be okay if you posted the zu usage stats? if not, would it be ok if i replied to the thread posting zu’s usage stats?
    viet noa

    admittedly though, the most i could probably do is just send a link to the usage stats. i don’t know how to make that stats table that you use, lol

    ZU stats come out with every other format when smogon.com/stats is updated. It takes much longer to run a whole month than for those 15-day shifts we did, so realistically this is never going to happen soon after I post the thread, because everything else is still processing for several hours after that. You can expect them to go up at some point on the first of the month, as usual.
