Good afternoon, in the "Showdown Pokemon" battle simulator, the Regidrago \ Ragieleki Pokémon do not have their Dragon's Maw \ Transistor abilities, as I understand they should increase the attack statistics x1.5 when using dragon \ electr types of attacks, or I misunderstood something ?
These abilities do exist and are functioning properly, maybe your expecting it to give a stat boost like swords dance? If so, these abilities do affect your stat stages, instead it just applies the affect when you use a move of the appropriate affect silently.
I'm sorry, but I still can't understand, in "showdown pokemon" the buff is not displayed as an effect, but it does not do more damage after using a dragon-type attack as it should if the "Pokémon Damage Calculator" gives completely different damage as a basis
Can you give me a screenshot of your calculations including the various settings?
Everything seems correct with your calculations and the simulator, the damage calculator is taking your ability into account when calculating damage, sorry if that was unclear.
With each use of a dragon-type attack, the damage should grow, even if it will not even be visible, but as you can see in the screenshots, the damage using dragon-type attacks does not increase, or how should this ability work?
Dragon’s maw increases the damage Regidrago’s dragon-type moves do, it doesn’t make each dragon-type attack stronger than the last one.
The boost is always 1.5x
The damage calculator is calculating the damage with Dragon's Maw boosting the damage already. If you want to see your base/nonboosted damage, you should choose a different ability.
thanks a lot, figured it out

Gen 8 Pure Hackmons is only available through directly challenging other people. You do this by using "/challenge (user), (format)" or by clicking a name and clicking on challenge. You will find it under "other metagames" then. The Other Metas and Old Shark rooms have pure hackmons players if you want to find someone to play with.
What are the odds of both people getting the same lead in a Gen 8 Random Battle? I've had it happen a couple times, which makes me curious if it's more common than I thought.
Hi, How does Steel Roller interact with Substitute? I'm asking that because while laddering on Pokemon Showdown, Steel Roller breaks a substitute when a terrain's up but the terrain is intact, I get the feeling that this isn't correct.

Description of steel roller: Fails if there is no terrain active. Ends the terrain

that's a bug https://www.smogon.com/forums/threa...chanics-research.3655528/page-62#post-8867073
(I posted it in the bug reports thread)
Understandably it's probably in beta but most recently PS developed a friend's list upon suggestion request. Would it be possible for users to opt out of this entirely in the near future? Personally it's not a feature I want and I'm having trouble finding in settings currently how to turn it off completely, with numerous requests logging in and rather annoying. I just don't want to keep clicking Deny on these requests.
hi, can someone explain why my opponent's zoroark disguised as barraskewda was immune to my liepard's prankster + copycat knock off in this battle, or should i post in bug reports? thanks! https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen8randombattle-1385168987-lkxjbrra5syfdxftnroujyjrepen7awpw
Dark types are immune to prankster boosted moves, including moves that call other moves.
oh yeah, of course. why do i always forget this... thanks!
Although your post was before this announcement, i can tell you for sure why its illegal now: it got banned in natdex recently https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/kings-rock-razor-fang-and-quick-claw-are-now-banned.3687987/
When do you think they'll add a Minecraft chat in Showdown? I'm 80% sure that there isn't one because I checked.
