This thread exists to provide a way for users to track the status of fixes and new features implemented on Pokémon Showdown. Pokémon Showdown will continue to use its 'News' section and Twitter to announce large changes, and the client and server commit logs will continue to provide the full details of exactly what is going on with respect to Pokémon Showdown development. This thread will be updated as-needed to announce the more impactful user-facing changes, though exactly what gets listed here is somewhat subjective (please reach out if you feel something has been missed). In general, fixes for short lived regressions (< 1 server restart cycle), refactoring/cleanup/optimization changes, features which have not fully landed, purely internal or staff specific features and metagame/ladder changes will not be included in this thread. Finally, due to 'hotpatching' some features/fixes may be available a few days before being announced as they will only be announced here once the server restarts.
The discussion of Pokémon Showdown / Smogon development primarily occurs in the PS Development room and the Smogon Development Discord server. Feel free to join any of them!
The projects themselves are hosted under the Smogon GitHub organization: https://github.com/smogon.
For more information on how to get started, references, check out the Smogon Development page: https://dev.smogon.com.
PS still posts big updates in the 'News' section and Twitter, and the client and server commit logs still provide the full details of all changes.
edit - I'm going to post whenever something interesting happens, no consistent schedule anymore (11/05/2023)
