Changelog – What’s NEW!

v1.2.11

Fixes Future Sight calculation with mon in the front instead of the back (this was a regression again from a previous release, sorry)

v1.2.10

Fixes

• Freeze in 2v1 battles when right side trainer had no mons to switch in, while left side trainer was about to switch in a new mon
• Spread move bug in doubles when right slot mon was supposed to defrost. E.g Heat Wave hit could only defrost the right side slot (player POV)
• Life Orb damage reduction when mon couldn’t move due to flinching
• Choice Lock timing when mon was unable to use a move (e.g. due to Fake Out)
• Wandering Spirit copied ability activating on fainted mon (e.g. copied Intimidate activated on fainted mon)
• Wrongly applied calculation order (stat stages should always apply first)
• Choloroblast taking damage when the move failed. Chloroblast previously used the Steel Beam effect but the moves are slighlty different
• Mortal Spin trying to poison a mon that has a status already
• Mold Breaker AI calc damage inaccuracy. E.g. Mold Breaker into Fluffy would see damage as if the mon wouldn’t be able to hit through.
• Figy Berry battler corruption when the pokemon was confused (the item was removed for wrong pokemon if the pokemon was confused by the berry)

Other

• Toggle running shoes action under utility for permanent running (credits: Jasper)
• Janine overworld sprite (credits: Frag)
• Signature color mugshots for E4 (credits: grintoul)
• Move type icons in battle
• Money max out under utilities
• Casual Mode
  • Egg generation by breeder in the setting house (generates valid, non duplicate eggs)
    • Valid eggs are all eggs with an egg group except Ditto (Manaphy and Phinone can be generated)
  • Unlimited Heart Scales
  • Pokemon signature items clerk + Silvally and Arceus items outside the house given by the kids

New Animations (Credits: Linathan)

• All Tera Blast types

• Glaive Rush
• Triple Dive
• Collosion Course
• Electro Drift
• Psyblade
• Mighty Cleave

Known Issues

• Battle Engine
  • If both attacker and target have Eject Pack and Eject Button
    • In Lucid the activation is based on speed
    • In vanilla Eject Button always activates before Eject Pack
  • Mirror Coat and Counter don’t work in double battles (inconsistent)
• Battle AI
  • Hone Claws is a fake move. The ai never considers it.
• Trainer Mon Ursaluna from Santiago has Bulletproof instead of Guts
