Hi, I plan to download several hundred thousand games for the development of a pokemon engine(particularly gen 9 natl dex), is there a preferred way for me to do this? Or is simply scraping the search api fine(obviously i would use reasonable rate limits and not just try to crash the servers)

How do i search for sprites ???

Ani are the animated sprites, the ones who say gen 1, 2, 3, etc, are the sprites of those generations. Afd are the joke sprites
The rules state that in an individual tour (aka not a PL/WC/CL that kinda stuff) you are required to wait a minimum of 15 minutes. The team tour rules are more complicated, but in short it's either 20 minutes after a manager ping or 30 minutes after scheduled time, whichever is later. What you view as reasonable may be longer than that.
Is there a way to disable getting alerts?
By that I mean when you post a message onto a thread, can you stop getting notifications on anyone (not a specific person) responding to your message or reacting to your post?

Go to https://www.smogon.com/forums/account/preferences and either turn off the setting for automatically watching content you interact with or the individual alerts.
This is the effect of toggling BB code on. Toggling BB code back again should fix this.
Thank you for your help.
What can I do if a tournament organizer is not properly scheduling the tournament matches?
Typically your profile is locked for a time after the name change, so you will need to wait until it can be unlocked to change anything significant on your profile.
To get the sprites you would add the Pokemon's name between two colons.
(
:great_tusk: would lead to 
) Additionally to link a suspect test (or any redirection link for that matter) to specific text, you would highlight your desired subject in the message and use the "Insert Link" function to make it clickable.
yes and use the additional information text box rather than the elegibility checkmark boxes to link to the tour win
There will likely be one at some point in the VGC and/or BSS subforums. It takes time to put those together and Champions has not even been out for a day
not sure if this is the right place to ask, but when do we think national dex draft and national dex doubles draft will be updated with all the new megas from ZA ?
How do I send a DM to multiple users?
Trying to coordinate my tourney schedule
I don’t think you can?
