- Basically, a counter separate from the sleep counter starts at 0, and
attempting to use Sleep Talk or Snore while asleep increments it by 1.
- If the Pokemon attempts to use any other move while asleep, this
counter is reset to 0.
- If the Pokemon switches out while asleep, the current value of the
counter is added to the sleep counter.
- Its exact implementation method is ultimately theorymon-based and policy-dependent.
- Keeping the current implementation is furthermore a maintenance burden.
- Dragonite has been banned from holding stones.
- Baton Pass Clause has been added.
- Mawile and Medicham can hold Medichamite and Mawilite respectively.
- Gengarite is banned.
- Regigigas is not allowed to hold any mega stone or orb.
- Remove megastone indicator on switch out. Relevant for Baton Pass.
- Type change information is now sent silently.
Add a new event ModifyAccuracy that affects all moves other than OHKO
moves and switched many event handlers that originally used the Accuracy
event to ModifyAccuracy instead.
Replace the pokemon.negateImmunity object with a new `NegateImmunity`
event that handles all the immunity negation.
Also deprecate 'IgnoreEffectiveness' in favor of having relevant moves
and items use `Effectiveness` event handlers instead.
- On failure, they will no longer trigger the `AfterMoveSecondarySelf` event. It was a common pattern to check for success on its handlers, so this removes some duplication.
- All failed moves will now run any set `MoveFail` single events.
- Life Orb will now harm the holder if a successful attack did 0 damage (e.g. False Swipe on a 1 HP target).
An examination of the commit history seems to indicate that it was
intended to be bypassed by Mold Breaker variants, and not be affected
by Gastro Acid.
It currently deducts an extra PP on a switch. According to the comment,
PP is not deducted earlier, which is why it was being deducted here.
But this is incorrect. PP is deducted earlier on a switch.
Where as SmogDex does not list the NU tier, it is been a long-standing existing tier within Smogon and rby2k10 communities.
The NU tiering serves for Random Battle balance purposes mainly, as there is no UU format.
One could use the change to build a Gen 1 NU tier or similar, though.
- Hardcode Assault Vest and Belch behavior to avoid breaking other core mechanics.
- Rework Encore so that its effect is similar to that of Choice Items.
- Handle these moves with a flag set in BattlePokemon#getLinkedMoves
- Fixes Assault Vest and Belch failing to prevent status moves and itself respectively if called in a link.
