Rejected - Inactive Possibility of Changing Base Stats for Custom Games

[InsaneGlitch]

I don't post on Smogon often, but thought it was about time I spoke up and said something. I know this is probably going to be rejected, however, it would be quite the nice feature to allow custom base stats for Pokemon that users can input themselves. This would allow for people to play around with friends on their own with changes they think would make for their favorite Pokemon. Regardless, to those reading have a wonderful day!

I would personally love this, and have raised up the possibility for it, but have been told that custom Pokemon changes (including base stat changes) are simply incompatible with Showdown's code as is.

also type changing would be cool

This is currently supported by making your own custom server.

I'm not opposed to making it possible to adjust on the main server, but it would be a massive undertaking. I can't imagine any programmer here would be interested, but if they are, they should speak to me first.

Hey. The gracious Zarel and I are offering a $100 cash bounty to any person/team who contributes a working, user-friendly, custom Pokemon creator for the Main server. This presumably means, a tool for users to locally create and save combinations of typing and base stats, which can further be modified with abilities/moves/names/gender/etc. to create a functional Pokemon that they can use in custom battles with other players.

As a disclaimer, I am not a developer. Zarel would of course judge and handle a submission.

I would actually also help and put some money into it because i have been looking for this forever now.

Do we have an update on the 100 dollar offer. Id love a completely customizable pokemon game.

 

[Adeleine]

There is not an update on the offer being taken up – there were some developers interested, but they withdrew.

If a developer is still interested in a cash bounty for this, the $100 dollar offer is still active. Any contribution to this bounty is also welcome, but any other people in this thread aren't bound by 4-year commitments–I will pay the 100 myself if needed. Developers interested can contact me by PM or Discord – I am in the Smogon server as starado. Anyone interested in contributing to the bounty should also let me know.

As before, I am not a dev, and the development team would handle and judge a submission.
