In general, featured replays need to be updated more frequently (so many of them are from Gen V) and, when they are from a less played metagame, should be a better representation of what playing that metagame is actually like.

For instance, I'm a BH player. The BH replay is from Generation V, and features an uncommon strategy that has been made even less common by the generation shift. In my opinion, it's not a particularly good replay, and shouldn't be what represents the metagame for the rest of the site and any potential players,

There is an on-going discussion about changing up/updating the Replays button on showdown's main page. We are looking into a Revamp and will let everyone know (likely through a News Bulletin post) if when it happens!
 
Well, when I'm playing Pokémon showdown, I notice where the music actually repeats because there is a small sort of... skip... I guess. Maybe you could use the actual BRSTM files from the games? Also I think it would be cool if you could select what song plays as well.
 
I don't often complain about certain aspects of showdown, but this one truly irked me.

The battle tabs are way too high, and as someone who often ladders multiple games at a time, switching between the rooms gets hectic. This is particularly dangerous since the tabs are very close to the bookmarks, and just one little shift of the mouse can cause you to click on a bookmark, quitting you out of showdown and all of your battles, with no way to get back into them quickly.

Could something be done about this, like a customizable UI, or perhaps a list of your last battles or battles involving you that you dropped out of? Something like a little pop up saying "Hey, now that you're back, you have unifinished battles at link: [link goes here]!"
 
This entire time I thought I was the only one with this issue. I never brought it up because it seemed kinda minor and would have never thought anyone else who had that issue.
You can make your own customizable UI through the browser extension Stylish, but I'm not sure how far you can go. All I've accomplished is color changing for my background, fonts, and highlights.

I hope this is looked into if its a change that's easy to be done!
 
Is it possible to add some sort of mention if moves you happen to find through dexsearch are CAP moves or not? Pokemon get it with negative numbering but as far as I can tell there's nothing for moves.
 
i have an idea for the website and was told to post it here

i was thinking of, you know when you click on a name a white box pops up? it would be cool if we could put more data / information in it.
like status: Away, don't interupt, brb, etc.
or a small chatbox where you can put something in, so that everyone who clicks your name can read it.

it's not important, but it would be cool

this probably has been mentioned already but can we get some boxes implemented pls. It's annoying when we have a ton of teams to look through for different tiers of if we are looking for a specific set we have it saved in say box 2.

I've discussed a rudimentary box system with Zarel before. He's busy working on lag fixes and the like, Quinella has been online less as of late for personal reasons, and the other programmers aren't as well-versed in the code that said system would ultimately use (regardless of whether or not it's done the way I proposed), so it might be a while yet before PS gets a box system.

Can we make a team being offline if not please make it

From what I've experienced earlier, if you let the teambuilder load and then go offline most of the Pokémon, moves, items and abilities are already loaded so they will all come up (Pictures doesn't). It looks something like:

Not pretty, but it's already functional as it is.

This has been brought up numerous times in the past and to my knowledge there are no current nor future plans to add any more trainer sprites to the simulator. I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that the one in charge of sprites Layell has stated this will not be done, at least by him.

maybe a place where a tournament is hosted when 8/16 people have joined that room. It could also have its own rating system

Not sure how they can give you rating that isn't server wide. MAYBE could be like a "tour buck" similar to a frost buck for winning. Again not sure how this can be accomplished without affecting the entire server, but then again I'm not a programmer.
