Haven't played in two years and my PSD account is now disabled, is there a way to figure out why? I fucked around a ton back in the day so it wouldn't be unheard of for it to have been banned, however I was never banned before so a straight disable would be weird. Did some searching and it might be because it's an old account so it could have been disabled over that?

Do I just make an appeal or something? I love the name so I don't exactly want to just start a new account when I have enough laddering alts already.

Why does Falinks still not have a minisprite? I haven't noticed any other Pokemon that has this problem.

Took me a while to interpret this question, but that is the Falinks mini, Though i'm not sure why it happens to look so much like the actual one.

I have a crappy-quality one I did quite a while back if you would like:

(not gonna lie though I'd consider re-doing that project if those could become official in some way. Just not with this quality)

where are all the minisprites located? thanks!

It's more than just similar. It's literally the same sprite with simplified colors and slightly different shading in a few places.

Is there a way to tell what the last pokemon in the party is on showdown, so that you know which pokemon a Zoroark will show up as?

In this replay I thought Nyancatninja's last mon was Kyu-B but Zoroark showed up as a Regieleki. Why is Regieleki his last mon even though it shows up third in the start of battle line up and in the team preview icons under his avatar.

This is the description for illusion:

When this Pokemon switches in, it appears as the last unfainted Pokemon in its party until it takes direct damage from another Pokemon's attack

Btw I'm not posting this as a bug because I assume I'm doing something wrong.

There is no way to tell what the last pokemon of one's party is, since the person using zoroark can choose what their last pokemon will be on team preview and the lineup doesn't change to reflect that.

How do I save changes to a team on the showdown program (not the browser one)? Most of the time when I make ev or moveset changes to a pokemon, I usually test it later but by the time I do wanna test it, the changes aren't saved and it cost me some battles. I even got times where my pokemon only has three moves because I deleted one and was trying to check its movepool to see which one to replace it with and when I do select one, it doesn't save. Item changes also apply to this problem as sometimes I'm stuck with the old item instead of the new one I replaced it with. I even tried to make changes, close the program, then launch it again immediately and the changes still aren't saved. The only way I found was to battle immediately after making the changes and sometimes, even that doesn't work. So, any help?

Still need help with my problem on showdown

I was wondering about a learnset. Pinsir couldn't learn quick attack + double-edge back in gen 7 but now when making a team with it, it successfully validates in gen 8 tiers. I tried to figure out what changed in gen 8, but couldn't find anything. From what I understand quick attack is an egg move in gen 4 upwards and double edge was a tutor move in gen 3 and a tm in gen 1, making them incompatible.
I'm unsure if this is an error on showdown's side or if I just didn't find what has changed.

Two Pokemon of the same species can directly teach each other egg moves in the nursery.

So this is possible by putting the Double-Edge Pinsir with an open move slot in the nursery alongside a Pinsir that knows Quick Attack. The first Pinsir will eventually learn Quick Attack too.

And yes, this is a new thing to gen 8.

I don't know where to look for this being addressed but I currently noticed that this technically isn't implemented yet. And on the same topic of Pokemon getting moves they really shouldn't I also noticed that neither Drilbur nor Excadrill have access to Hydro Pump which is another Swsh bug. Are there rulings to these moves not being added or is it something else.

why does the "Add Pokemon" button disappear sometimes on the desktop app?

is there a way to reload the dekstop app?

 

[jdcomix]

Will gen 8 cries ever be added? It's been over a year since SwSh launched

They will, but whenever they're made and implemented.

Not sure if you're still having this problem, but it should be fixed if you redownload the app from the website. Alternatively, use the browser instead.

https://www.smogon.com/forums/threa...t-before-posting.3663703/page-38#post-8659939 Seems impossible to do. As for hydropump being able to be learned by drilbur/excadrill, I believe that has been patched
in the cartridge games.

This is a known problem with the desktop app. The browser version doesn't have this problem, so it would be best to use that instead.

where are all the minisprites located? thanks!

How do i make a server like dragon heaven?

The server's Github readme has directions on actually making a server.
For getting it registered, see this thread.

 

[elleapple]

Why don't roomvoices have access to /banword list? It seems like generally useful information for a roomvoice trying to keep chat positive. I can remember at least one instance of a user asking why certain commands are banned (presumably talking about /me), but I wasn't able to provide them with an answer as without being about to see which words are banned I would just be guessing.

is it known that if you put smogon in as a pokemon In team builder it gives you koffing?

Smogon is Koffing in German, so it's an alias of it.

Is the avatar icon stored client-side? When i change account the icon remains the same...

It's mostly handled serverside - changing your name doesn't change the avatar, you have to explicitly use /avatar (or go to the page but that also just sends /avatar for you).

Thank you!
