Smogon Simple Questions & Suggestions Thread

[Lasen]

Thnaks for the responde, my innerent pokémon is a Lileep. I don't like that and I will stay with my Shedinja avatar.

Another question, how can I share a battle of pokemon showdown in this forum?
When I saved a battle it become a html archieve in my pc roosted in my directory C.
As example: file:///C:/Users/gabrf/Desktop/about%20pkmn/Gen3OU-2021-11-02-rg4shadow-bean43152.html
But you can't open this link because isn't online. Where can I get a On Line link of my battles to share in the forum?

unfortunately, if you save your battle it will only be available to view locally aka for you. Sharing them is nigh impossible unless you screen record them and upload the video somewhere. If you want to be able to share your battles, an easier way is to click this button

Here’s Shedinja’s animated sprite if you want to set that as your avatar

That’s from Black and White like the default avatars, you can explore here for other things like modern sprites or shinies (unfortunately Shedinja has a disappointing shiny coloration)

Any chance we could get profile headers? From what I've seen those are a XenForo feature. Maybe make it accessible to badge holders only like the custom title but that's another can of worms

No, we don't remove badges for aesthetics reasons

This Mythical discussion is beginning to feel like the SwSh theory that Impidimp was a Mythical because GF kept placing it in stuff but never acknowledging it, lol.

EDIT: Why don't was have an Impidimp "trolling" smiley?

Copy/pasted from the SV Thread.

Being this is a suggestion thread just want to clarify that the "was" is meant to be a "we".

This link just have until gen 6, and I don't find any gif there, just stoped png.
Where can I find gen 7 and gen 8 sprites of pokémon? And animated one.

Pretty sure you have it right there. Smogon does not ‘use’ new sprites for Gen 7/8 Pokémon and it does not do so for existing pokemon.

admittedly this explanation is a bit vague but hopefully it gives you what you need.

Gens 6, 7, and 8 use the same spites so what you want for animated front sprites is https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/ani/

Those for prizes are usually posted in the CA approval thread which is in Inside Scoop, official team tour ones are often posted close to the tournament start when they're all uploaded. There's no central place to view them all afaik.

Very minor grievance but in most generations of 1v1 it is not optimal to have a 0 attack IV on special attackers, and the automatic implementation of the 0IV can become a little annoying when I keep forgetting to change it before I upload the paste (this is due to strategies forcing you to struggle generally being a lot more common than foul play). If the feature could be changed after selecting 1v1 in the builder that would be ideal. I do understand, however, that this might be a lot of effort for a very minor optimisation so is very far from urgent.

 

[rockruff3571]

hi, I had a question. how do you like a post, because I think what bilb owo is saying makes a lot of sense, and I have no idea how to

Here are some past posts answering that:

Click the like for a like reaction, and if you hover over it it should give you more react options.

it'll "unlock" once you have more messages

I assume there isn't, but is there a way to mute a specific thread so that it doesnt mark as unread?

Profile headers has been brought up as suggestion, but it hasn't progressed much further than that at the moment.

I was taking a look at the Badge FAQ and noticed that most, if not all descriptions of each badge lack any specific requirements to achieve said badge. For example, "Pre-Contributors (often referred to as "Ladybug") are most notably badged for their helpfulness in the Contributions & Corrections forum". Is there a certain amount of C&C contributions that are required to fit the criteria of getting the badge?

 

[Akeras]

Iirc yes, but i doesnt know how many
