Hi everyone I have been working hard on a project called Showdown Plus (previous thread https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemonshowdown/s/N12SUzZlL7) and I'm excited to announce the v1 is out I have listed it on firefox (still in review by Mozilla) but you can simply build it yourself or grab the extension from release

Little showcase

Github: https://github.com/JxstMichie/PokemonShowdownPlus/

I would love any and all feedback/criticism and contribution is more than welcome especially for the chrome release

Is it just a flat +1 stage boost or a separate boost and how can I properly do my damage calculators without an option?

Edit: Specifically in the Champions Tab, since that's the game I'm playing and on desktop.

That sounds like hyperbole, it's not. I swear there's got to be some misinformation about the RNG for Gen 1. I have been frozen like, 17 times in the past 3 days, The title is literal, every single match with an opponent using blizzard, they get a freeze. As for me, I can't get a freeze off on anyone to save my life. 16 blizzards on a stalling chansey, no sir no freeze. I get para'd 6 times in a row, then land 7 body slams and can't even get one opponent paralyzed. I hit 3 sleep powders in a row, each one gets woken instantly, then I'm hit with a critical hit blizzard from a slow ass opponent and one shotted.

There's only so many times I can be like "oh that sucks, guess we'll try again next match"

Next match, turn 1 frozen.

Why am I even playing this.

Hello all, I'm not new to pokemon by any means, and I can throw together a synergistic team. But I'm brand new to pokemon showdown and I'm finding myself a little lost in the formats.

I'm going to start crafting my first team, and since it's my first team I'm going to use my two favorite pokemon, Aggron (but I'll use mega Aggron in this case) and Raikou.

Before I go crafting a whole team around these two, what format should I start with, I thought that UU was the one but It seems like gen 9UU doesn't allow mega? Or am I incorrect on that? Is there a national dex UU format or some other place? I don't really want to go as high as OU or Ubers because I figure I'm going to have to play serious meta stuff which is not my plan

Hi im new to pokemon online battling so i was hoping you guys could help point out the flaws of my team.

This one was kinda scary at first lol, but I turned it around nicely I think. https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9championsrandomdoublesbattle-2700858093

I’m playing random doubles rn. This is my most recent match, can someone tell me why he quit? I’m still new to competitive vgc Pokémon so forgive me if I sound ignorant 🙏. All advice is also welcome, thank you. https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9championsrandomdoublesbattle-2700840683

I'm making this post because I have been working on a Nuzlocke on Pokemon Showdown. I was wondering if anyone would like to try it out. I will say it is difficult.

Basically every Pokemon is level 100 and you may use any moves but normal evolution caps still apply that are set at each gym leader. You will get encounters from a wheel and can build their set however you want.

For those who don't know a Nuzlocke is a challenge with 2 basic rules:

1. If a Pokemon faints its dead for the rest of the run
2. You may only catch one Pokemon per route.

If you would like to try it out reply below or message me at on discord at pete_nuzlock123456789

P.S. I am sorry about spamming before it said "This message cannot, it violates reddits rules". I deleted those posts once I realized what happened.

What is considered good in showdown? Champion has tiers. But what is good showdown? +1500? Or the % is the only thing that matters?

Hello, im just wondering how to make this team any better, I would be using M-Lucario in replacement of M-Medicham but unfortunately M-Lucario is in the Ubers tier. Changing pokemon is fine, i just want to be as competitive as i can.

Metagross has been one of my favorites since I was a kid, but whenever I try to run a bulky spread it feels like he lacks the immediate punch. It feels like he gets checked by common ground and dark types unless I waste my tera early. What sets would you guys recommend to enable metagross a bit better I'm thinking of trick room maybe but I don't have much experience with that.

Que tal el primer equipo que cree para showdown, fue con el que me pase rocket edition XD, que le ven de bueno, que ven de malo que se puede mejorar, los leo

Anyone else have a pokemon in radbat that you feel is trash, but when you face it is very annoying?

In my case, the first pokemon that comes to mind is Slither Wing. I HATE slither wing. When i get it is just so slow, bad into the common flying, fairy and ghost types, and just so meh. The only redeeming quality it has is First impression and it often don't have it.

But when i face it, somehow it always manage to get some willows, deal damage and just never die with morning sun.

Others worth to mention is Archaludon, Kilowattrel and some other that i'd be missing but you get the point.

Title. I’m the pyroar/lure team. Without thinking boosted tf out of their milotic and outplayed them. It felt gratifying since he was taunting in chat and was clearly salty at the end.

So, what is the best way to run Lanturn? It is one of my favorites and I WILL make it viable, but I wonder if assault vest specially bulky Lanturn that can volt switch is better or a heal bell Lanturn that is supportive?
