Hi! As you all probably know now, the new dex is up! Everything works the same for past gens on the new dex, barring one fairly minor difference: moves and abilities which had their spellings changed in Pokemon X and Y will need to be spelled the current way in analyses, including for past gens, as they will not be recognized by the dex otherwise.

Here is a list of the newly spelled moves:
  • AncientPower → Ancient Power
  • BubbleBeam → Bubble Beam
  • DoubleSlap → Double Slap
  • DragonBreath → Dragon Breath
  • DynamicPunch → Dynamic Punch
  • ExtremeSpeed → Extreme Speed
  • FeatherDance → Feather Dance
  • Faint Attack → Feint Attack
  • GrassWhistle → Grass Whistle
  • Hi Jump Kick → High Jump Kick
  • PoisonPowder → Poison Powder
  • Sand-Attack → Sand Attack
  • SmellingSalt → Smelling Salts
  • Selfdestruct → Self-Destruct
  • Softboiled → Soft-Boiled
  • SolarBeam → Solar Beam
  • SonicBoom → Sonic Boom
  • SmokeScreen → Smokescreen
  • ThunderPunch → Thunder Punch
  • ThunderShock → Thunder Shock
  • ViceGrip → Vice Grip
And abilities:
  • Compoundeyes → Compound Eyes
  • Lightningrod stays the same for now Lightningrod → Lightning Rod
