Community Build A Metagame [BAM] - Fakemon Metagame Megathread

Disaster Area · Oct 20, 2017

BAM [Build A Metagame] is a Fakemon Project. The fakemon will battle only other fakemon, rather than real Pokemon, and there will not be art (unless a spriter appears). It will be implemented only on Pokemon Perfect's Pokemon Showdown Server once it is complete. (Well, if it is ever complete...) I have total control on the direction but I really want your opinions and ideas!

The idea is to design a metagame: we have complete control over the mechanics, the moves, the items, the abilities, and the Pokemon. We will not (at least, until we have made a first version) make pre-evolutions, Legendary Pokemon, or Pokemon which are overpowered or unviable in the metagame. We will have around 60 Pokemon.

The goal is that it will have a pace something akin to ADV, and to control this we focussed heavily on move power, with few moves above 100 base power permitted. The only moves above 100 BP included are Double Edge, Flail, Focus Punch, Reversal, as well as new moves Vengeance and Meridian Blast. That does mean no Explosion-like moves. In addition, we do not have weather-related moves or abilities whatsoever: this is for two reasons. One is that they become very central to the game's design if you do bother including them, and the other is that because of how heavily they favour particular types and how much they power up moves, they can be very challenging to balance. There are also no moves which can confuse, freeze, raise evasion, OHKO, or lower accuracy. There are no moves that can send an opponent to sleep, but rest still exists. Since we have control of the moves, it makes more sense to not include evasion boosting and OHKO moves than to have them but clause them out of existence. Regarding the other options, a goal of the design is to make the metagame less "haxy". This does not mean removing the element of luck entirely - if you were to do that it would turn predictions into pure 50/50s in many cases for example - but to reduce the role of luck and to, more importantly, reduce the aggravatingness of it.

Mechanics are based on Generation 6 unless otherwise stated.

(that does mean that Electric-types cannot be paralyzed)

- PAR Status does not have 25% chance to immobilise. Instead, it gives the paralyzed user effectively -1 Accuracy and -1 Evasion.
- Attacks cannot miss versus a Sleeping opponent.
- Critical Hits: 1.5x Power, All boosts are ignored if the defending Pokémon has accrued boosts in their defensive stat. Furthermore, the message that a critical hit occured no longer displays.
- Type Chart Changes: Steel resists Ghost and no longer resists Fairy, Bug resists Fairy, and Ice resists Water and Grass. Here it is in visual format:

Move-related Mechanics

Concealed Power - Will have a different IV configuration (TBD)
Flail, and by extension Vengeance, use generation 4 mechanics.
Hazard Order - Health Orb's healing effect activates after all other switch-in effects.
Whirlwind and moves with the same secondary effect operate under Generation 2 mechanics. This means that the move must be used last for the secondary effect to work.

- The evasion-dropping effective of Paralysis means that in the case of two paralyzed Pokemon facing eachother, the accuracy and evasion drops cancel eachother out and move accuracy is calculated as normal.
- The non-display of critical hits occurring is for two reasons. One is to reduce frustration / "hax" - when players aren't aware there's critical hits they're less likely to be salty. The second is an interesting information bonus. When an unboosted - no Choice Band or Specs - attack critical hits, it enables the user to bluff a Choice item if the attack has not done damage before and no other item, such as Leftovers, has been revealed.
- GSC RestTalk and GlitchDrum mechanics.

Moves from Pokemon where we use older versions:
Belly Drum - uses GSC glitchdrum
Knock Off - uses pre-Gen 6 Base Power.

Moves from Pokemon which we tweak:
Mirror Move - Uses the last move the opponent used in the battle even if it was several turns previous.
Roost - When using the move, health gained is reduced by spikes damage.
Toxic - Has 100% Accuracy

New Moves:

- There is no Baton Pass, U-turn, or similar moves. The reason for not including Baton Pass is that it is very challenging to balance compared to the interest it can add to the game. U-turn and similar moves I just decided I didn't want because reasons. :>

- However, we added the move Tag Out, which... just switches the user out. Nothing carries over, no boosts or substitutes, and it does not do damage.

- These are the hazards and hazard control options (new bolded):

Hazards: Spikes (Gen 3-7 Mechanics), Health Orbs
Hazard Clearing: Raze, Wash Away

Raze is akin to a Ground-type Rapid Spin. This means that, besides Flying-types, Pokemon with Levitate also block Raze. Even more awesome, equipping a Pokemon with an Air Balloon enables it to block Raze until it is damaged! Since Wash Away and Raze remove your own Health Orbs, it makes little sense to run them together, but Health Orbs are an effective way to mitigate damage from Spikes to some extent. Pokemon which aren't grounded only get the positive effect, and Pokemon which are grounded only lose 7/48 (a little under 1/6) of their max HP, with 3 layers of Spikes up.

- Every type has a decent (more than 80 base power and accuracy) Physical and Special option.

- Soul Drain, Leech, Energy Fist, and Syphon are all decently powered attacks which heal 100% of the damage dealt. From my epxperience in Violet this is an awesome mechanic that provides great recovery. It is very easy to overrate or underrate its effectiveness, depending on your persuasion.

- Thunder Wave, Fiery Spell, and an accuracy-buffed Toxic all reliably (100% accuracy) status their opponents now. Tail Sting is a Bug-type attack which badly poisons, outclassing Toxic on Pokemon which learn it. Venomous Bite is Poison-type and the same can be said for it. Ignite is weak but does a similar thing in the case of burns.

- Phazing moves: Kinetic Shift, Strong Gust (also an attack), Whirlwind

- Boosting Moves:
+2 Acc - Magnify
+1 Atk - Howl
+12 Atk - Belly Drum (Cuts uers HP by 50%)

- Other things worth mentioning:
Acid Burn - Poison Type Special Attack which burns Badly Poisoned foes.
Air Blade - Physical Flying-type attack which uses the opponent's SpDef in calculations.
Healing Circle - Raises the HP of both the user and the opponent to Max HP.
Low Blow - a medium-powered fighting-type attack with a 50% chance of taunting the opponent for a 1-turn duration as its effect.
Meridian Blast - Damage formula of 110 - 0.5 * |50 - HP(%)|. This means that at max or effectively zero HP, it has a Base Power of 85, and at exactly 50% HP it has 110 BP. The nearer to 50% HP, the stronger the attack is.
Reset Punch - Basically like Haze but an attack.
Soul Snatch - Changes the user's secondary typing to the that of the opponent's secondary typing, unless it is single-typed, in which case is changes the user's secondary typing to that of the opponent's type. If the user is single-typed, adds the opponent's secondary typing or type as a secondary type.
Trip - Inflicts half of the opponent's current speed as fixed damage.
Safeguard is replaced by Canopy.

Custom Abilities:

Buoyant - Reduces damage taken from contact moves by 15%.

Type-Chart (Listed twice for visibility / reference):

To Do List:

Should we implement:
When one Pokemon faints before the other Pokemon has had the opportunity to move, that Pokemon will not move [a.k.a. ADV battle engine]

- Determine relationship between Concealed Power and IVs and Berry Blast's exact functions.
- Add New Pokemon
- Ideas in my head: specially-based fighting type, fast subseed, mons w/ really high hp + low defenses and vice versa. Hardcore defensive bug type?! marsh/desert/cave/fossil pokemon. 101 HP sub mons and generally mons w higher HP...

Albastorm is the meta's seabird, with average speed and high special attack. It hits hard with Wings Of Dawn giving it the opportunity to boost. Its average bulk and 4x electric weakness certainly make it manageable, in spite of hitting like a truck. It outspeeds some walls and tanks, such as Metalmorph, Komodon, Lopsicle, and Usurpent. It can also outspeed uninvested Narwhale and Halicia which can help it out. Nimpur, Sharshock, Stormkite, and Gerbolt all outspeed it, though not much else really answers it. Its typing lets it answer Bug-types, Fire-types, Ground-types, and Fighting-types, giving it a relevant metagame niche.

Alkeminx is curious... it sports a brand new type combination in Poison/Psychic, combined with a powerful ability in Prankster. The mischevious Pokemon has average stats all around but has a gigantic movepool with a lot of tricks. Amongst its options to abuse with Prankster are moves such as Grudge, Disable, Toxic, Switcheroo, and dual Screens. It's hard to know exactly what it's going to do, as it has a lot of tools but isn't really purpose built for any particular role.

Alovera is another curious Pokemon. It has a shallow movepool, but it has a slew of useful moves within it. Heal Bell, Health Orbs, Leech Seed, and Spikes are all very useful moves, and Natural Cure and Spiny are very good abilities too. It doesn't hit very hard and it's very slow, and lacks much besides Normal- and Grass-type attacks, so it risks being a momentum sap and can't abuse sets such as SubSeed effectively, relegating it to an almost exclusively supportive role.

Arialis has what sounds like an awful typing at first glance: Bug / Ice, giving it a 4x weakness to Rock and Fire, as well as a bunch of other weaknesses. But it has quite a few useful resistances: Water, Fairy, a 4x Resistance to Grass, a resistance to Ice, and a resistance to Ground. It has very good speed and special attack, with just about enough bulk to be able to switch into things. It has a wide special movepool and nasty plot, and could potentially run defensive utility sets with access to Roost and Health Orbs, or could be an offensive Health Orbs setter. It is named after the Aurora Borealis and after Arias. It is a moth found in forests on the side of icy mountains.

Like Shrike, it's a Steel-type with a low BST, but a lot of really good tools. It has good enough attack to use in combination with Swords Dance, and Technician STAB Rocket Slam certainly helps make up for its lackluster speed to some extent, but a Swords Dance set could definitely appreciate paralysis support too. It has a useful defensive typing that makes it a great answer to Electric-tyes amongst other things. In short, it has low stats but the tools and typing to make it work, with decent defense (although Tortanium outshines it as a pure tank in many ways).

Bulldor is a fast and fairly powerful Fire/Rock-type. It has a good offensvie typing and the movepool to back it up. It is designed to be an effective offensive user of Raze which is hard to prevent from doing its job. Its typing certainly opens it up to a lot of weaknesses but high speed and decent attack certainly lets it mitigate enough of that to function decently.

The hungry chipmunk Chipmunch was designed to abuse Cheek Pouch. With a very deep physical movepool and very good speed but average stats elsewhere, it can effectively run pinch berries to surprise foes. Besides that, it has other toys such as SubPunch, Raze, and the ability to utilise a Choice Crown. Not all that impressive but it has enough tools to find a niche however the metagame pans out.

Chromastone has some interesting design features. It combines good Attack with good Special Defense, and subpar Defense with subpar Special Attack, something not often seen. It was designed to specifically be able to abuse Crystallize: a move similar to curse. With a great Rock-type STAB and Immunity granting it an immunity to being Poisoned, as well as coverage such as Earthquake, it has plenty of potential. Note the fact that due to the GSC-style phazing mechanics, at -1 Speed, Porcuspine, a physiclaly defensive phazer, can be EVd and IVd to be slower, enabling it to phaze it, specifically weakening the effectiveness of running Crystallize and Kinetic Shift together, which is a combination I hope to see frequently.

One of the three starters, alongside Bulldor and Gurilla, Crushtacean is a fairly balanced Pokemon with a variety of strengths and flaws. Water and Bug is a very good STAB combination, but due to the lack of a good Bug-type STAB move, is foroced to run Concealed Power Bug to make use of its STAB. It can run a couple of different sorts of sets. An offensive set with Scuttle has plenty of potential, since it has high enough attack and speed to potentially clean after a single Speed boost. EndFlail is another viable approach, potentially abusing Torrent too to power up its Water-type STAB. A slow but steady Choice Crown set is also on the cards, as is an abuser, with tools such as Knock Off, Body Slam, and Venomous Bite (a better alternative to Toxic).

Cuddlefish, the cuddly cuttlefish, is one of my favourites! :3 on a competitive level, it's a Wash Away user which is Toxic-immune, and is a decent answer to Fairy- and Fire-types. In particular, it's a great answer to Narwhale, as it can Ink Spray against boosting versions and fish for a Critical Hit, as well as Special Attack drops, forcing Narwhale to rest probably more than once before getting to a stage it could think about 2HKOing Cuddlefish. Cuddlefish also has access to Wish, another useful support option. A more offensive take with Scuttle and its dual STABs is a possibility but the utility sets are clearly the biggest draw.

Diamenix, the diamond phoenix, is a behemoth with good typing both defensively and offensively and a movepool and stat spread to back it up. Its physical bulk is impressive, and its special attack is high enough to really do some damage, especially if it gets a Special Attack boost from Wings Of Dawn. Soar enables it to boost its speed and physical power, and it can also take a bulkier offensive approach with Roost or act as a utility Pokemon, with Heal Bell.

The idea is that it's a great switch into Fiery Spell / Ignite that isn't Fire-type (instead, beating Fire-types) and doesn't lure in special walls (since it's a physical atacker). And hence you have Dolfin. Choice Crown is its bread and butter set, with Dive Bom and Double Edge complementing STAB Torrential Crash, hitting all resists to its STAB at least neutrally, with Concealed Power offering the opportunity to hit additional Pokemon super-effectively.

I just want to say how good of a job I did naming this xD It is almost an anagram of Swordfish, with Dors being short for Dorsal; the Dorsal fin on a fish is the fin on their backs. Swish is the sound a sword makes, and so we have Dorswish.

It's a very interesting mix: the two best defensive types, on the fastest Pokemon which is fairly frail and decently powerful. Its movepool is not terribly deep but it has all that it needs to act as a good cleaner. Fencer boosts the power of Sword Slash (its Steel-type STAB), Abyssal Slash (its Water-type STAB), and some of its coverage options, like Serpent Slash, Leaf Blade, and Unnatural Slice.

Innovatively named by yours truly.

It's the fastest mon in the game. It's pretty awful versus stall/balance, so many mons check or counter it handily (Katakomb, Narwhale, Tortanium, Lopsicle, Diamenix, plus maybe more) but versus offensive teams it could be dangerous just due to that high speed even though it's not especially powerful and has very limited coverage options.

Your generic electric rodent is here!~ Recharge and Energy Draw are cool tools that enable it to go on the offensive, but the lack of a good Ice-type Special Attack is a real downer for it. That being said, Sacred Surge does give it nearly perfect neutral coverage, with only Nimpur resisting or being immune to both that and its STAB. Some cool abilities like Cheek Pouch (which could work nicely with Berry Blast), Short Circuit (an Electric-type Torrent), and Quick Feet are nice tools that set it apart from Nimpur, but in a cat and mouse game, the cat usually has the advantage.

Grass/Fighting is an okay type, certainly one that opens up options but has its own flaws. Gurilla has the ability to be a typical, fairly low-risk Pokemon if you choose to use sets like Choice Crown or SubPunch, but high-risk high-reward sets are definitely real options on it too. Belly Drum makes it a devastating stallbreaker, and SubPunch + Reversal + Demon Fist with a Salac Berry is a very dangerous threat. Bulk Up + Rest sets are another option too, which presents its own challenges but could equally be rewarding if overcome.

Halicia was designed by Ninjax originally. It has epic special defense, very good special attack, and otherwise solid stats all around. With access to Wish it can act as a decent utility Pokemon, and offensive sets can either run a bread and butter Choice Crown set or a more novel set abusing SubDisable or Cold Chills (which could be particularly effective with Spikes support) [amusingly, Competitive Alkeminx is a great response to that variant]. Its name comes from Halo, Hail, Ice, and the name Alicia.

The name just came to me and then I filled out the rest. It's similar to Stormkite and Shrike in that an offensive Soar set is deadly, though it has to use Concealed Power for its Psychic-Type Physical STAB. It has a pretty deep movepool but most of it is peripheral to the main stuff it wants to do like Choice Crown and Soar sets.

Katakomb has an almost unique typing, granting it 3 immunities but very few weaknesses or resistances. It has a good, bulky stat spread, and a deep support movepool, but many of its support moves would be more effective most likely if it were faster. Useful moves it gets include Disable, Destiny Bond, Fiery Spell, Knock Off, Pain Split, Perish Song, Switcheroo, Trick Room, and more. Its Special Attack, whilst nothing special, is enough to do good damage against Pokemon weak to its STABs and whilst slow it outspeeds many stallish Pokemon. Sleuth is an awesome ability which enables the gathering of information against opponents which frequently carry different concealed power types.

Kobolt is to Alkeminx as Solrock is to Lunatone, Zangoose is to Seviper, and so on. Its type contrasts - poison vs steel, poison vs psychic. Both have prankster, and an ability that boosts an attacking stat alongside an attack drop. Again, like with Alkeminx, it's hard to know what it's going to do. With prankster, it has quite a few useful moves - Disable, Nasty Plot (!), Switcheroo, and others. Its movepool is a little lacking, with the absence of a physical Steel-type STAB, but it has a decent defensive typing and a bunch of tricks. It'll be interesting seeing what it does end up doing, but whilst not very bulky it's bulkier than all Steel-types besides Tortanium (on the physical side) and Metalmorph (on the special side).

It has Legend's Curse to boost with, Dragon Slam and Venom Slash for physical STABs, Earthquake for coverage on top of that, Rest for staying power, and Corrosive Acid to hit Steel-types super-effectively with a Poison-type STAB attack. It is also a good anti-physical Pokemon in general, with high Defense and Spiny punishing contact moves.

Pretty sure 8-bit CPU made this Pokemon name. Best. Name. Ever.

It's an awesome design that's really complete: a great name, a decent typing, a reliable role, and it gets to exploit awesome unique moves. With high speed and passable special attack, it can act as a competent special attacker. Whilst it doesn't appear that bulky, with access to Leech and Soul Drain, it can recover its HP very easily, as it regains 100% of the damage dealt. Combine that with Taunt and Fiery Spell and things get very dangerous. Furthermore, its ability Vigilant prevents Critical Hits, ensuring it won't go down unless you really earn it, making it much more reliable.

It also has cool tools like SubDisable and Sub+Recycle+Petaya Berry at its disposal, meaning it certainly has flexibility. Destiny Bond and a handful of coverage options complete it making it a deadly threat. Luckily, there is a hard counter to it in Rokaw - immune to its Ghost-type STAB, and resisting its STAB Leech, with Roost to stay healthy, Natural Cure to clear burns, and Wings Of Dawn to scare it out or KO it - so this pest is far from unbeatable.

Lopsicle is pretty cool, and with Thick Fat and the type chart changes it makes surprisingly good use defensively of its Ice typing! It is immune to Electric, and resists Ice and Poison, but is weak to Fighting and Steel. It's an Electric immunity that is surprisingly hard to exploit, although Toxic can certainly help wear it down. If it opts to run Deep Freeze instead and run an EndFlail set you had better watch out for that too, because this pivot can suddenly go on the offensive in a truly dangerous way. Bulk Up, Raze, and Flash Freeze are other very notable moves in its arsenal.

This electric kitten is decently powerful with good attacking stats, a good movepool, but average speed. A Choice Scarf can certainly patch that up, making it one of its best sets. A bulky set with Energy Draw and Recharge is an option too, and its coverage, support, options and power enable supportive, unboosted offensive sets, and choice crown to all be viable approaches to consider on it. And don't forget its access to a priority move in Rapid Burst!

Panthaw hits like a truck, with the highest attack in the game, and doesn't do much beyond that.

Porcuspine is a spiking physical tank. It has great HP and Defense with Spiny to punish physical attacks, with passable Attack, SpDef, and Speed. Its movepool is fairly empty besides basic attacks and a couple of support moves like Thunder Wave and Whirlwind.

Rakunuki is based on the Japanese Raccoon Dog, also known as a Tanuki, and so its name is a portmanteau of Raccoon and Tanuki. It has a unique typing which makes it immune to its own STABs. Its speed and attack are pretty good whilst everything else is average. It has a deep support movepool and adequate physical coverage to run Choice Crown, Choice Scarf, or itemless, abusing its ability Pickpocket. Both of its STABs have great neutral coverage, and together are only walled by Steel-types, which can be covered via Concealed Power.

Scorpox's typing is unique but it is pretty good in all honestly. Offensively, the only type resisting both STABs is Fairy, but with Deadling Sting giving a STAB boost to Poison-type attacks it's pretty hard to stop. In fact, it's hardly worth using its Bug-type STAB as Dark and Poison together have fantastic coverage, but it is its best option against other Dark-types. On top of that, it has high Attack AND quite high Special Attack too, although its speed is a little lacking (but not bad). It can make up for the middling speed with Scuttle or with a Choice Scarf, and its access to Syphon makes it even harder to take down. A specially-based set with Enrich to boost with is also an option. Its best physical Bug-type STAB option besides Concealed Power Bug is Pins and Needles, but Tail Sting is only a little weaker and badly poisons the opponent, making it a consideration for both its power and utility.

Shrike is based on a real type of bird called a Shrike which is infamous for nailing its prey to pointy objects like thorns, and it appears in popular culture in other ways. It is also an anagram of Shriek.

It has the lowest BST but it is a great Pokemon, with a good typing, stat distribution, and movepool. It can run a boosting sweeper set with Soar, and can do it with Roost too. It can run an offensive or defensive Spikes set. It can run a Choice Crown set too to hit and run with. Although its bulk definitely leaves something to be desired, its amazing defensive typing and movepool ensure it'll be surprisingly potent on the defensive side of things too.

Slugly is a unique, single-typed Poison-type. It's very slow with a high HP stat, two interesting abilities, and a varied movepool that doesn't pidgeonhole it into a specific niche but makes it very flexible and adaptable. Amongst its best options include Enrich, Syphon, and a handful of coverage options like Bullet Seed and Concealed Power on the physical side and Energy Ball, Earth Power, and Shadow Ball on the special side.

Another Electric-type, this bird has great attack as well as good speed and bulk. It's a serious threat not to be underestimated, with a deep movepool and lots of viable sets. It can Soar, Taunt, Phaze, recover with Recharge or Roost, and use Energy Draw, so it's far from one-dimensional and sure to be a top mon.

Surchin might have a deep movepool but the only part that REALLY matters is Spikes. It's an effective and unique Spikes setter, based upon a Sea Urchin. It has a plethora of attacks and status options to complement this, with both the offensive and defensive stats to be overall useful, but it does lack speed and doesn't really have a standout stat elsewhere. It could act as a Trick Room setter too, or as a Wash Away user.

Terrattle is a treacherous snake, with a decent typing and good attack, good speed, and good enough physical bulk when factoring intimidate. It can break things with a Choice Crown set, bop offense with EndFlail, and can run a more bulky supportive set utilising raze and syphon.

Tortanium is very bulky on the physical side with a great defensive typing but it doesn't really have much to do beyond that. It gets Bulk Up and Scuttle but is dreadfully slow. An offensive set is worth considering as it does have the power to genuinely hurt things but its rock-bottom speed holds it back.

The unicorn is a decent physical fairy-type with a passable movepool and can act as an offensive health orbs setter. Note that its Atk lets it 2HKO 252/0 Porcuspine with Adamant Choice Crown Tornado Kick with a layer of spikes up, its Def enables it to survive a Choice Crown Jolly Stalk Leaf Blade (with 8 HP EVs), and its SpDef does not enable it to survive Timid 252 Scorpox Pestilential Storm.

Fast, frail, fighting, with a fair bit of coverage options but little else. SubPunch + Reversal, EndRev, and a choice crown set could all work for it. It has speed and coverage working for it, and potentially heavy power, with reversal, but its Atk stat is maybe lackluster, we'll see.

Technical Aspects

Showdown Mod
Team Builder
Spreadsheet(s)
Bamhub 2
Bamdex
About page for Bam

1: Showdown Mod

The showdown mod currently will just be using the pokemon's data (Does not include sprites). There will also be a github repository once the programming starts. We'll be waiting for the spreadsheets to be fleshed out so we can generate as much code as possible, abilities and secondary effects will need to be done manually.

Step 1.) Add format
-config/formats.js
generate banlist, manually code the result
-data/rulesets.js
done manually
Step 2.) Add Pokemon
- pokemon.js
can be generated
- Learnset.js
can be generated
- format-data.js
can be generated
Step 3.) Add pokemon to client (if we have a custom client)
General documentation for modifying Pokemon Showdown · GitHub

2: Teambuilder

he team builder will uses many of the same tables from the spreadsheet and the Bamdex to validate teams and show you valid moves on a given pokemon. Mostly done besides a export button this is done.

Code:

[LIST=1]
[*]Importable button
[*]Hit enter for first option
[*]Max evs and total evs counter
[*]recommended sets and spreads?
[*]colors and images in tables
[*]more dynamic CSS

[/LIST]

3: Spreadsheet(s)

The spreadsheets are the heart and sole of all the bam applications. The sheets act both as a reference sheet and the database that will power the bamdex. It will also likely power the team builder and be used to generate code for the mod.

Code:

Confirm they are up-to-date and update them as we have more Pokemon, moves abilities etc.

4: Bamhub 2.0

The original bamdex was a portal with some information about BAM on it. This willl probably be brought back as a homepage for the bamdex with portals to this thread and server's that host the mod.

Basically done at Build-A-Metgame: BAMHUB

5: Bamdex

The bamdex is where we are storing the pokemons' data, movesets, ability descriptions, and move descriptions. This will be a very useful tool for creating new pokemon and making teams.

Code:

[LIST=1]
[*]Display Pokemon Movesets
[*]Custom Art?
[*]Tips Page (Needs improvment)
[/LIST]

6: About Page

Basically the above posts as HTML, feel free to make this if you want, just PM me first.

TBD

Still exists if you want to put the stuff into the spreadsheet.

Could we reconnect it to the new spreadsheet (here)? Would save me filling stuff out again (would need to make new tabs for Items / Abilities and a new tab for all Moves since this just lists the Custom ones)

Also, tagging sceptross since he might be interested in your code for that as a possible basis for a PPDex...........

Shouldn't be an issue, just need to find my password for the hosting website. Just publish both sheets as public on the web as csv files and send me the links. I can definitely pass code if he's looking to put data from google sheets into and html table or list.

K Legacy · Oct 21, 2017

Code:

var theData = <?php $url='https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ML-OyzAULtmw4BvAHkb6o8ka3P_cEfG-W6jIFALIHdE/pub?gid=0&single=true&output=csv';
                if (($handle = fopen($url, "r")) !== FALSE) {
                    $result="";
                    while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 100000, ",")) !== FALSE){
                        $totalrows = count($data);
                        for ($row=0; $row<=$totalrows; $row++){
                            if ( (strlen($data[$row])>0)){
                                $result.=$data[$row].'~';
                            }
                        }
                    }
                    fclose($handle);
                }
                echo json_encode($result, JSON_HEX_TAG);?>;

This will give you the table as a string in JavaScript with cells separated by '~'. For implementation make sure you have a .php file not .html file. Also make sure you hosting service will run php. Besides that just get the spreadsheet link from where you publish it as a csv.

Update and Status Report 12/21/17

BamBuilder:

Here's what it looks like, note this image is at half resolution. Need to get the natures working but besides that I just need to apply this for all six Pokemon (Just need to copy and paste and change some ids and event parameters). Then write a method for a importable and it's ready for alpha.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spreadsheet and Dex:

The spreadsheet now has all moves, abilities, items, and move sets. Some tables need to be updated. Updating these tables will update the Dex and the Builder.
The Dex now is completely linked to sheets and shouldn't need any major revisions going forward. May want move sets on hover for Pokemon in the future, but the Dex is functional. Tips page added, could be better.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bamhub:

The hub or homepage is bam is basically complete, better descriptions and custom art would be nice.
