Guide to using Mega Sableye, Sharpedo, and Altaria

[Colbrushie]

This guide is for the web client, I have no idea what the desktop client looks like.

These three megas are apparently broken as their mega stones were misspelled but teambuilder hasn't fully updated yet.

Anyways, they are still usable. You just have to do a little workaround.

1. Create the Pokemon you want to use.

2. Put in any item you want into the item slot; it's just there to placehold. Click Import/Export above the moveslots.

3. Change the item (in this example, Assault Vest) to Sablenite, Sharpedonite, or Altarianite. These are the correct item names determined by data mining. The previous names were just speculation. Hit Save.

And you're done! Until the item database updates, this is the only way I've found to use these three megas. Simply typing the item name in doesn't work as Teambuilder won't recognize it as an item and therefore not update the item.

Happy Battling!

Ugh, please learn the right way to rename an item (namely, make an alias from the old item in aliases.js). Even if I do update the client, a lot of people will have saved teams under the old format.

Well, if they get an error, they are likely to go back to the teambuilder and try to put the item again. If the client is updated, they will get the correct item. If there's an alias, they will forever have the wrong name and when they export to post here or for somewhere else (like another simulator), it will have the wrong name too. Just saying.

Anyway, the client is updated now so I am unsticking this.

Aliases are passed through before Export, aren't they? If not, we can change that. Either way, expecting manual action is unnecessary.
