I've given a bit of thought to the cross-generation metagame. I don't want to start a thread until it looks technically possible, otherwise it's just vapourware.
I think the mechanics could be hybridised. A few examples:

The single special stat in RBY could perhaps be implemented as an ability, that would transfer boosts/drops in one stat to the other.

RBY and GSC have no natures, and effectively 248 EVs max per stat with no overall maximum.

One idea is to run physical/special attack on the attacker, and defense on the defender. By which I mean, if 3rd Gen Gyarados were to use Waterfall on 4th Gen Blissey, the move would use Gyarados Special Attack (because Waterfall is special in 3rd gen) against Blissey's physical Defense (because Waterfall is physical in 4th gen.)

The type chart could vary, with RBY Pokemon using their chart, either on the offence or the defence; steel and dark would probably be treated as typeless. If you run it on the offence, then RBY Pokemon's psychic attacks are resisted only by other psychics, while on the defence RBY psychic-types are weak only to Bug.

There are miscellaneous move differences.

Earlier Pokemon don't have as many items available (and RBY Pokemon can have none)

In this idea for a game, It would be interesting to see how RBY Mewtwo shapes up. If it's allowed the elemental punches (from GSC tradeback), then it could rip anything 4th gen to shreds, being able to hit whichever side of its target's defenses is weaker from its massive Special stat. On the other hand no nature boost and no item limit its power quite badly.

tell him thank you, i did not know i had to copy javaws too, i only copied the link on the program called "run"

tell him thank you, and sorry to bother him so much for this i think 2 weeks.

did you copied something he wrote? i don't remember that.

ok. thnx anyway. but still, if you want to help, it downloads just a small notepad file, small, and nothing on it.

ive tried both a couple of times.

hey, do you just know how to solve problems when downloading shoddybattle?
i can' do it, a tex file opens, and I've done everything done in the thread.
