Could we add a BW ZU format? Currently there is a tour with a 1st place prize of 501$ starting January 9th for BW ZU. Since this format doesn't exist teambuilding is difficult as you have to use the BW PU format, and some people will probably accidently bring illegal mons to their game. I know the format list is already massive and making a new one (probably?) takes some time and effort, but considering the stakes are literally higher than OST I think this is justified. Also I have 0 idea where format suggestions should go so sorry if this is the wrong place.

As you guessed this is not the correct place to suggest this. Here are the guidelines on how to suggest formats. As far as I can tell there isn't a great place to suggest this unless you have a badge though, unfortunately.

That being said, this is actively in development, and will be added to PS once the devs have the time to.

Edit: it's live now and can be found under the Retro OMs section.

Hello, I posted recently about editing the conditions file, and I received a reply about /hotpatch formats. This didn't solve the problem, but I was wondering how I could set up Config.consoleips because this seems a lot easier than rebuilding the server every time I make a change.

Thanks!

Just add a value to the array (in config/config.js) matching your userid. For example,
JavaScript:
exports.consoleips = ['mia'];
You also need to be on an administrator account to be able to access console commands with this.
 
can i fetch the ID Room of my current battle?
Yes - connect to the main server via websockets and use /cmd userdetails [name] to get info on a user. After using it, you'll receive a JSON blob in a |queryresponse| message type - this will have a list of all public rooms the user is in. If it's private, you can't see it without being in the battle or logged in as that user.
 
Ok, is there a cmd who show all the pokemon in the battle? (with a roomid in parameter)
Or to fetch the information of the battle room that is written in the tchat

What does the zrecovery parameter mean in the /ds command?

The zrecovery parameter checks to see if a Pokemon can learn a move that give HP recovery as its Z-effect. So that'd be if the Pokemon can learn Aromatherapy, Belly Drum, Conversion 2, Haze, Heal Bell, Mist, Psych Up, Refresh, Spite, Stockpile, Teleport or Transform.

As far as I can tell it does not check for Memento or Parting Shot, which both heal the next Pokemon you send out as their Z effect.

Thank you for answering my question.
 
How is the pokemon level calculated in randomized formats?

Most randomized formats (old gens specially) use Smogon tiers (the lower the tier, higher the level). Gen 8 formats (singles, dubs) use a winrate system with subjective measures to balance levels. Hackmons and similar calc levels taking on account base stats. Battle factory is lvl100 (LC is lvl 5) and BSSF is level 50.
 
Hi I could like to made an permalocked appeal earlier. Because my recent lock by Monkey should never been issue in the first place. And if the locked doesnt happen I could not get permalocked like this

As per this post and as you should already know, permalock appeals aren't done on this thread. Also since you have been unlocked once, you'll need to wait 6 months since your last permalock to be granted the possibility of appealing. On the same thread I linked there is an explanation on how and where to do the process.

But As HoennHero said. You can appeal right away if they appeal on the ground that Permalocked doesnt been granted in the first place
