Introduction

Pokémon Showdown is many things:

Pokémon Showdown simulates singles, doubles and triples battles in all the games out so far (Generations 1 through 9).

  • PROTOCOL.md - How the client and server communicate with each other.

  • sim/SIM-PROTOCOL.md - The part of the protocol used for battles and battle messages.

  • CONTRIBUTING.md - Useful code standards to understand if you want to send pull requests to PS (not necessary if you're just using the code and not planning to contribute back).

  • ARCHITECTURE.md - A high-level overview of how the code works.

  • Bot FAQ - An FAQ compiled by Kaiepi regarding making Pokemon Showdown bots - mainly chatbots and battle bots.

Community

PS has a built-in chat service. Join our main server to talk to us!

You can also visit the Pokémon Showdown forums for discussion and help.
