• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Update: does anyone have any objections to editing that in?

    Question Box

    iirc we decided that was fine back in like February or March and then never got around to actually editing that in.

    Question Box

    Can a Pokémon tell whether it's opponent's Substitute is small, medium, or large?

    I know Quick and Metal Powder don't work post-Transform in-game but they totally should in ASB, because otherwise like Pathos said they're completely useless.

    I didn't actually do that, Eifie contributed that bit.

    I very distinctly remember seeing a three-turn Solar Beam??? This may have been back in, like, GSC or something. Now I wanna test it...

    Also, in the games, it does affect their charge length (and, afaik, doesn't affect their power): two charge turns in bad weather, no charge turn in sun.

    They're not; their damage can't be affected by anything (unless it's prevented entirely). They're both tagged "exact damage" and they both restate it in their full descriptions. They do kind of need a nerf though...

    Yes, everything except self-inflicted damage counts towards the cap.

    Question Box

    For future reference, anything with weird exp distribution should be run by the mods first. In this case I think it totally makes sense to count the Dittos' KOs towards the regular Pokémon's exp, since they could have gotten it anyway just by managing their KOs, but I don't think it makes sense...

    iirc the usual procedure is that you can use them right away no restrictions, which I don't like. :(

    It IS mentioned somewhere... The rules on attacking say: And I also mentioned it in the reopening announcement. I'm not really sure where else to put it; hopefully it'll be a moot point soon. Oooon which note what should happen in current rounds when event moves go up? Would it be alright to...

    Conversely, if you steal someone else's Lucky Egg or similar, you won't get any bonus from it.

    The former, and same goes for all the other ability-granting items. That's what they mean by "in addition to all other abilities". EDIT: Questions about what to do if your ref/opponent was banned will be answered soon. EDIT 2: Ok I think it's safe to say that if a battler was banned, there's...

    I'd also like to clarify that if you use other Pokédexes, you do so at your own risk — I'm not sure how trustworthy other sites' OR/AS data is, and the Database is the final word on what a Pokémon can use. It'll be back up before the end of the day. (I got my hands on an Omega Ruby ROM and...

    Event moves are going to be available soon — they're not useable right now, but they were legal in the old league, and gathering an up-to-date list of event moves to add to the db is on my to-do list.

    What I was getting at is it's not going to have even lower priority than Focus Punch alone, is it? Regardless I don't think I'm gonna try it.
  18. Zhorken

    Question Box

    If your opponent is using a -4 priority move, can you still command your Pokémon to deliberately go second with a 0 priority move? EDIT: Ooh, another idea: given that the Canonical Combo Example is Thunder Punch + Comet Punch, would Drain Punch + Focus Punch work? And would it still have -3...

    Question Box

    When you agree to e-ref a battle, does the seven-day bonus start counting from there, or from the date on the last commands?

    Question Box

    Should the first attempt at TruetoCheese's ref test battle give the full usual ref test prizes?
