On showdown how the fuck do I battle my friend without using their fucked up rules? It keeps saying random shit is banned like dig. Another issue is, when we import our pokemon from our save files, the evs get all fucked up and for a few battles we were just setting all the evs 1 or it didn't let us use them. But I feel like that's wrong and it's messing up their stats? Is this how I'm supposed to set the stats in picrel? Is the number to the right of DVs just the final stats and I just have to manually make it match what the stats screen says in game? Is there really no way we can just do pokemon stadium on netplay with our save files? Or how do you import gen 1 pokemon to showdown correctly, preferably without a bunch of random shit getting banned?
>>58348175Just do a link battle on emulator. The reason certain moves are banned are because there are game breaking bugs in gen 1. I personally think Showdown should've just patched them out, but they are trying to be completely faithful to the engine and so they include the competitive ruleset. If you get fully paralyzed on a Fly or Dig turn, your pokemon cannot be hit but will still be able to attack on later turns.

>>58348200>Just do a link battle on emulatorThanks, but I tried looking it up and I couldn't even find out which emulator to use. I think I tried this before a while ago and it desynced after actually linking up. Is it Retroarch with Gambatte?
>>58348175>>58348246It is possible to make a challenge code for Gen 1 OU or Gen 1 Ubers or Gen 1 OU Tradebacks or Gen 1 Stadium OU but with Dig or whatever moves you want unbanned.You can ask the Help room about making challenge codes for a tier with unbanning certain things. I forgot how to do it off the top of my head.As far as I know there's no easy way to figure out what your cartridge mons' DVs and EVs actually are, have to like dump them to PKhex, so yes you only have trial and error adjustments to do.
>>58348224This image is like a faggot detector.
>>58348780Is it wrong though? Gen 1 was shit
>>58348780>filters seething emotional genwunfags.It’s quite successful.
>>58348793It's wrong because half this shit is the fun of the game now>Oh, muh engine and lack of QOLWe're almost twice as further displaced from Gen III than Gen III was to Gen I. The sands of time are going to erode the Masuda era, especially when the newer games sell better than ever

>>58348224>you know that move that takes 25% of your hp to make a substitute? It's actually broken when it takes 25% of your hp to make a substitutemost honest seethe artist
>>58348859It shouldn't let you die because then what is the point? You don't even have any way to tell if you have exactly 25% HP.
>>58348901Maybe just don't be a retard?
It's kinda weird how hard it is to play pokemon stadium netplay, or gb/gba still. you would think they would figure something out by now.
>>58348200>they are trying to be completely faithful to the engine
>>58348901>You don't even have any way to tell if you have exactly 25% HP.Take your max HP and divide it by 4.
Holy shit every tutorial I managed to find for this shit is complicated as fuck. There's an hour long one where you have to set up a bunch of shit on a nintendo switch emulator. Some 40 minute one where you need to use an actual hacked 3ds. It's blowing my mind that there isn't just a game boy emulator with netplay but gamecube has that.
If anyone knows the easiest way to just do an online battle with red version and blue version for game boy pls respond
>>58348175You can just do Custome Battles and ask your friends not to use any glitch Pokemon or things you can’t obtain normally.
>>58350119That's something I was trying to find but I don't see Custom Battles or anything like that anywhere on the site
>>58349686On the fly?>>58348859>you know that move that takes 25% of your health to make a substitute?>it fails to account for when you have 25% or less healthTo be fair, it is a QoL thing, but I'd put that as a pretty high priority "thing to fix before release," personally. That'd piss me off so much..
>>58349677Freeze clause and sleep clause are literally taken from pokemon stadium. And pokemon stadium doesn't have the desync problem. Gen 1 competitive battling is based around pokemon stadium so it makes sense that they implemented these
>>58349916VBA-M has the option but I've never gotten it to work successfully. Others have though, so I'll put it forward anyways.
>>58348200They did patch desync moves after Counter was discovered to cause desyncs.>>58349677You know Freeze Clause really bugs me. Freeze Clause exists in the first place because Smogon recognizes that at least in Gen 1 and Gen 2 that Freeze is a busted status condition. But instead of going all the way and just removing Freeze all together, they instead make it so you can still Freeze a Pokemon, but not 2 of them.So not only does this not satisfy people who hate RNG (the vast majority of people) by not totally banning Freeze, but you’re also pissing off purists by changing game mechanics.Shit like Freeze Clause is more of a legit criticism of Smogon than le evasion or OHKO moves, but unfortunately the little timmy army isn’t high enough IQ to ever address that.
