Stat boosts/unboosts caused by abilities now send:
|-ability|POKEMON|ABILITY|boost
|-boost|etc
|-boost|etc
|-unboost|etc
Before, they were pretty inconsistent.
Anticipation now activates as an -ability tag.
Forewarn now uses an [of] tag to indicate the given Pokemon, and fixed
Gen 4 Forewarn to not broadcast the Pokemon.
@Marty: please stop believing websites that aren't this one or UPC :/
The description for Defeatist is literally "While this Pokemon has 1/2
or less of its maximum HP, its Attack and Special Attack are halved."
I even looked in-game and it said it was half of lower, and even sites
we shouldn't trush say it's 1/2 or less of max HP.
The current implementation of ModifyAtk, ModifyDef, etc. is to pass the
actual stat into the event, have event handlers run battle.chainModify(),
ModifySpe passes in a modifier variable, calls battle.chain(), and then
ends with battle.modify() using the modifier variable. The way chainModify
is implemented within the event system also means that it chains together
modifiers in the same manner and finishes with battle.modify(), meaning
that there is no need for ModifySpe to use battle.chain() and
battle.modify() manually.
This also fixes the effect of BattlePokemon#getStat on stats other than
speed.
The full description is in the comments of the Endless Battle
Clause entry in rulesets.js.
This update fixes a lot of the issues with yesterday's version.
Also included: A minor refactor of deductPP, which did not need
a success variable.
The new Endless Battle Clause attempts to ban endless battles by
detecting situations in which a battle could become endless.
This approach bans endless battles without banning Leppacycling.
The exact formulation is:
A Pokémon is considered cornered if:
- it has no available moves other than Struggle
- OR a stale Pokémon used Assist Whirlwind on it
- OR it has been hit by a Struggle from a stale Pokémon on the turn
it switched in
(at the beginning of a turn, if you have available moves other than
Struggle, you are no longer cornered)
A Pokémon is considered stale if:
- it has gained a Leppa berry through any means besides starting
with one (including but not limited to Harvest, Recycle, Pickup,
Symbiosis, Bestow, Thief, Switcheroo, and Magician)
- OR it has been targeted with Fling Leppa Berry
- OR it is cornered and begins a turn with more HP than it the last
turn it began
- OR it is cornered and begins a turn with as much HP as the last
turn it began, and was not fully paralyzed, loafing around from
Truant, or immobilized from Attract
- OR it uses Transform/Imposter against a stale Pokémon
(a Pokémon that becomes stale stays stale for the rest of the match)
If all active Pokémon are stale, the player whose team originally
started with a Leppa Berry loses. If both or neither team started
with a Leppa Berry, the team that had the first stale Pokémon wins.
Implement new function getMoveTargets to list all move targets given a
user and a move. Refactor Battle system to remove redundancies with
checking move targets. Run the RedirectTarget in this function instead of
later after TryMove, since technically single-target moves changing
targets should occur before the move is attempted.
Refactor the DeductPP event to be a singleEvent that targets the Pokemon's
ability instead of a global event. Run this event on the move's targets as
calculated by BattlePokemon#getMoveTargets.
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.
Knock Off no longer broadcasts the source so Arceus can knock off a Plate
from a non-Arceus, Genesect can knock off a Drive, etc. Updated Sticky
Hold to check for Knock Off specifically as a result.
TakeItem is no longer suppressed by Mold Breaker, fixing interaction with
Unburden. Updated Sticky Hold to check for Mold Breaker instead.
Items that prevent their own removal do not have that effect negated by
Klutz and other item-negating effects.
Thief and Covet can steal Mail.
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.
