• 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?

Attacks and Abilities Guide

That's not what I meant. I meant I'm making a generator for Sleep Talk. As in it calls a random move learnable by that Pokémon.

Eh well, it's fixed now anyway.
 
Yeah, but that can't call Chill, doesn't do Sleep Talk and is only available online.
If you want to use that metronome script offline, you can save the page (as a "web page, complete" or the equivalent for your browser) and use the saved copy.

Where Sniper says it Critical Hits gain 10% damage, is that simply a boost of 10% of the move's power, or just +10%?
Ordinarily critical hits do up to 7% extra damage, depending on the base power of the move being used. If a pokemon with sniper gets a critical hit, it always does 10% extra damage.
 
It still can't call Chill or handle Sleep Talk, but it's kind of irrelevant anyway, since I'm about halfway through and determined to finish. The rate I'm going, it might just be done by the end of the summer.

Thanks for the clarification.
 
btw, negrek, bug report: your generator has pound twice.

ALSO: have fun with this. requires perl.

Code:
    38 invoke as:
    39   perl metr.pl [num] [:tag | +move | -move ...]
    40 for true metronome:
    41   perl metr.pl :true
    42 true metronome, including chill:
    43   perl metr.pl :true +chill
    44 fake metronome, minus earthquake:
    45   perl metr.pl -earthquake
    46 only selected moves:
    47   perl metr.pl :none +earthquake +earth_power
    48 generate four, plus chill, minus leaf blade
    49   perl metr.pl 4 :true +chill -leaf_blade

I'm pretty sure it's been explained elsewhere: Substitute has special attributes that let it absorb the shockwaves or soundwaves or whatever, which is why a Subsitute can't protect a teammate in the same fashion. Substitutes don't protect against weather conditions, though.
 
Hm. Substitutes don't protect against weather conditions in the games, iirc. I myself make weather conditions damage both the user and the sub since it seems to make more sense. But for this, I guess we'd have to have Negrek clear it up.
 
Okay, so the Hail thing was an error on my part. I do wonder just how it can absorb, for example, Surf, being it hits the entire field.
 
Substitue users go to an alternate dimension for some refs. Others just have it behind the Sub.
