• Added new filter feature for Pokebox to help make up for the bug

Very sorry for the error in the backfill. Please see the reddit thread for more information. Hopefully the new filter feature will make up for it!

• New stats!
• Added Graphs to raid results
• Added early custom graph support for Patreons
• Fixed issue preventing automatic assistants from working on Tier 6 raids
• Added new images for alola pokemon
• Regenerating all results

Plan was to release these 2 separately but Niantic decided to surprise me on a Monday. Unfortunately my current architecture does not support running multiple sets of game masters so the sim results will not be completely accurate. They are really only different in number of deaths though so I don't feel too bad about breaking the sims for current actual stats. Besides I expect the new stats tomorrow.

More public profile work

• Fixes issue where the trainer page was displaying Mystic when it should have displayed Valor
• Added battle parties to public profile
• Added move information to pokebox selects
• Adjusted UI slightly for mobile

Minor bug fixes

• Fixes error message on viewing profiles
• Prevents double load of profiles

These were related ;)

Beta release of public profiles!

• Added an initial public profile implementation!
• Added search by name or user id

Let me know what you think!

A few updates

• Privacy policy updated to make it clear that your pokebox and trainer information are not considered sensitive personaly information (SPI)

Trainer name and to a lesser extent Pokemon names may be considered peronally identifiable information(PII) by someone. These features are entirely optional and are intended to be share friendly. Yes this means finding a friend by trainer name is something I hope to add soon!

Minor tweaks mostly to handle a questionable 3rd party export format

• Now detects said questionable format and switches "1" to mean false and "0" to mean true
• Now uses the 'Name' field to mean either Pokemon or Nickname depending on the situation
• Export columns are now more sensibly ordered

Note to developers out there, if you are going to allow exports of your data or make some public api, make sure its understandable by humans and matches standard programming conventions. Represent enums as strings and booleans as true/false. Make your variable names make sense, etc.

A few bug fixes and improved bulk support

• Deoxys now has Thunderbolt
• Advice power up now correctly saves ivs
• Bulk import no longer requires a shiny and lucky column
• Bulk export added!
• Bulk import now supports an id column and an importedId column. You can use importedId to assign your own ids to Pokemon

Some testing has been done that you can export your pokemon, edit in google sheets, and reimport to update your pokemon in place. No more delete all and reimport. This is not to say enough testing has been done. Please report bugs to [email protected]. Please include the file you are importing along with browser and device.

Update share images and descriptions

• Deoxys will now show up for Kyogre for example

Update for Deoxys

• Deoxys knows Thunderbolt and not Zap Cannon!
• Other forms of Deoxys are not available
• Raid results are being regenerated

Raid update and minor tweaks

• New raids are out!
• Updated share descriptions and images

Deoxys update! Official Deoxys stats have been found in the game master along with new moves.

• Deoxys moves updated
• Regen of all results

Was waiting for the game master update before I regenerated from last Thursday's Mewtwo change. Glad I did!

Performance and Share Link improvements

• Reenabled javascript split
• Much improved share description and image for raid counters

Another bug fix

• PvP now properly supports dodging
• Raid simulator now remembers rejoin time and battle parties better.

Minor bug fix

• Bulk upload should work properly again

Full Mewtwo support.

• Mewtwo has been implemented as a Tier 6 raid with 50% additional hp.
• Tier 6 raids for other raid bosses available under custom raids.
• Fixed Tier ? functionality in some cases

It is unknown wether they truly made a tier 6, customized Mewtwo or just changed tier 5 permanently. We will see.

Initial Mewtwo release. Changes to support new 60K cp still to come

Niantic keeps up the big news with a Deoxys leak

• Deoxys readded to raids

Pretty strong evidence in this Silph Road reddit thread. That said, no information on how Deoxys forms will be handled. Our best guesses have been implemented and will be updated as further news comes out

Meganium update

• Frenzy Plant added for Meganium
• Updated legacy date for birds

Raid counters regenerated but not the rest of the rankings and pokedex as Mewtwo is likely getting a new move on Thursday

Hopefully final update for raids

• Removed a few raids

Quite a bit of confusion today as raids have changed multiple times

• Added and removed raids yet again

The raid list still may not be 100% up to date. There were a few hours where other raids were showing up that have now disappeared. Hopefully a good list will pop up soon.

Tweaked raid list

• Added and removed raids

The birds have arrived along with a raid rotation

• Added new raids

Ultra rewards announced!

• Updated breaking news

Spent some time fixing up the raid simulator because it was frustrating me

• Numerous bugs with parameters not saving between pages fixed
• Added rejoin to the raid simualtor
• Tweaked the combat log to be a little less annoying and a bit faster.
• Fixed share image for raid boss sim results
• Fixed gen 4 typos
• Tweaked gen 4 movesets (will affect pokebox only for now)
• Added Arceus - Fairy

I think I got all the parameter bugs but please let me know if I missed any!

Bug fix

• Fix translations cache
• Fix issue with language change drop down

Big update

• Removed Sky Attack from Moltres as a raid boss. Moltres will only have fire moves
• Added gen 4 legendaries
• Fixed TDO sort orders (ranking and pokedex pages will have to wait)
• Reduced server lag for charge moves from 98 to the intended 70.
• When the sim decides to use quick attack only, will use the quick attack 28ms lag instead of the charge move lag of 70ms

Ranking and Pokedex results have not been updated due to server load concerns. Raid results have been updated. Thanks to /u/333-blue for the bug report

Minor patch

• Added last resort to flareon.

Improved battle sim share links!

• Fixed issue with moves being incorrect in description when shared.
• Added 168,000 share images for every combination of combatants :)

Still to come, raid share links. If you have ideas what they should look like, send them my way!

Minor bug fixes!

• Added all pokemon to possible raids
• Maybe fixed share links (we'll see)

Massive behind the scenes changes and Moltres!

• Moltres has been added with Sky Attack
• All results regenerated. Bug fixes and Sky Attack!
• Every URL is now more shareable on social media and discord. They will have images, title and description
• Better raid result page shows info while the counters are loading.
• Pages are now generated on the server side now. This should hopefully fix my search engine woes and speed up slower devices

Improvements on sharing will come. Dynamic image generation, share buttons and more. I might even be able to make the site work without javascript.

Moltres currently has all 4 charge moves as possible defendsive movesets as I have heard conflicting reports as to what movesets Moltres will have. I suspect it will be sky attack but I don't know for sure. The counters don't change that much so leaving them all in is safe. Sorry for the long wait on the regeneration of some of the buggy results but I wanted to wait for Moltres announcement.

Ho-Oh has returned again, and is duoable this time.

• Smack Down Tyranitar punching bag has returned. It can be shiny and some people are exited about this.

Sim update, this will only affect pokedex for now.

• Rankings with variable dodging have been improved. The number of counters found has been increased. As before, the most accurate counters list is on the pokedex pages
• TDO on defense has been changed from the TDO of the defender to the TDO of the attacker. This should make more sense for everyone (blissey #1 TDO!)

Note I am NOT regenerating all rankings at this time. I suspect there may be another Pokemon Go update in the next couple days and I am working on something else.

New raids have been added again!

• Updated all known raids as of 8:00am Pacific Time.

Middle of the night update is very unusual timing. It will be curious if this pattern continues

New raids have been added!

• Updated all known raids as of 3:00 Pacific Time.

It looks like gen 4 preparation time everyone!

Regirock preparation!

• Updated currently available raids to feature Regirock

We expect a full rotation of new Pokemon to come. Expect more water and fighting Tier 2, 3 and 4 raids.

Minor patch

• Hurricane added as possible move for Articuno

Yet another bug in Unknown moves

• Fixed cases where Unknown moves was the same as a particular moveset

Regenerating all raids now.

Full support for Last Resort

• 2900ms with an abysmal 2700ms damage window start makes this move very dodgable

Full regeneration of files starting now

Bulk import bug fixes

• Handle '1' and 'T' for Shiny and Lucky, not just 'true' or 'false'
• Show shiny/lucky in bulk import preview
• Show parse errors for invalid values of lucky and shiny. Will default to false and is not required

This was breaking bulk import for some 3rd parties

Quick bug fix release. Thanks TygerDave for the quick bug reports!

• Fixed some display issues with the new lucky and shiny code
• Fixed powerup costs in some situations
• Tweaked server settings again for stability

The rollback is due to google being unable to support the performance speed up. It is causing an enormous problem in people being able to find the pages they are looking for and more importantly, preventing new users from finding the site. A workaround is my #1 priority for the site now

A release that is bittersweet for me

• Added preliminary support for Last Resort. It has been added to Eevee and all Eeveelutions. Based on video analysis, the duration has been set to 3.3s and power of 90. Current support is on Pokebox and simulation pages. Full ranking support will come after the exact durations are released.
• Add support for shiny pokemon. This is display only for pokebox and all pokebox results
• Add support for lucky pokemon. Same as shiny but also includes support in the advice page
• Rolled back the split site changes from July 29th.

The rollback is due to google being unable to support the performance speed up. It is causing an enormous problem in people being able to find the pages they are looking for and more importantly, preventing new users from finding the site. A workaround is my #1 priority for the site now

Minor tweaks

• Try and prevent page loads from getting 'stuck' in peoples browsers. See open bug ticket
• Tweaked back end parameters slightly for better performance

Sim tweaks to provide more accurate results

• Fixed edge condition with dodge all weave where it would get 'stuck'
• Made random move selection less random. Will now rotate between seeds to provide more accurate results with fewer monte carlo iterations
• Regenerated all results

Mewtwo vs. Tyranitar had a particularly bad seed and even 500 sims wasn't enough to fix it. Derandomizing was the only way to get a good result. There are some downsides to this for percentiles but overall I believe everyone will like this better

Minor patch

• Fixed wide screen pokebox and bulk delete

Performance boost time!

• Fixed slowness of pokebox list page
• Fixed slowness of pokebox delete page
• Fixed slowness of pokemon dialog selects
• Fixed slowness of pokebox dialog selects
• Split site into smaller pieces so initial load will be much faster
• Fixed sort by estimator in 'Single' view

More to come!

Bug squash time

• Fixed crash bug on mobile with combat logs
• Moved move buffer time to damageStartMs to prevent double single bar moves

I am NOT regenerating all results right now as there are some additional bugs to investigate. These bug fixes will only apply to pokebox simulations for now

Registeel is out along with other new raids!

• Added all the new raids
• Bumped up the server size a bit. Thanks for knocking over the servers again you jerks!

Overall the new architecture is working well. Unfortunately the memory size was too low and thats why they fell over this time. Autoscaling is working well other than that.

Quick fix today

• Added handling for empty pokebox when loading battle party page

Thanks for the bug reports everyone

Minor patches to address a bug and a usability issue

• Added new short link for custom raid levels for Zapdos
• Fixed battle party edit thanks Crystal

The Zapdos link was causing people to get confused with not seeing their Pokebox results.

Zapdos is getting Thunder Shock and a sim update

• Added Thunder Shock for Zapdos
• Added handling of energy ping pong bug where getting hit by a special after you use your 1 bar special does not really give you energy. Energy gain/spend from specials moved to damage window start
• Added handling of bug where queued attacks when you die on the server side must complete before a new attack will be chosen. Remaining time to next attack added to death delay. Note this is applied for both quick and special attacks
• Reduced death time from 1.9s to 1.0s as the above bug explains most of the timing issues.

Overall this is a pretty big nerf to long duration moves and full bar moves, especially those with a late damage window. Frenzy Plant looks even better now on the other hand. Simulator updates due to research by /u/Lachanceuse100. I did not reduce the delay all the way down to 0.5s for now until I get more feedback and do some more research.

Post Articuno day cleanup and pokebox usability

• Removed Articuno from current list. Added to special events
• Updated max level for pokebox to account for weather boost
• Fixed broken weather drop down on rankings page. Thanks for the bug report 劉冠緯
• Added ability to save recommended party as a battle party
• Added quick power up to advice page

New usability features by popular demand! More usability improvements to come!

Articuno was released as a Tier 4!

• Updated links for Articuno Day

Happy birthday to me! More bug fixes and changes.

• New estimator sort for the raid pages
• Fixed bug with assistants dying too late. Thanks /u/Lertburut for the bug report
• Added Articuno to current raids
• Fixed cp input issue

Please let me know if you find any issues! Site will be a little slow as the caches populate. Lots of servers running though to make it fast.

Minor bug fixes and changes.

• Fixed mobile left side to collapse after selecting a page
• Added back bottom bar for desktop users
• Made menus not move around so much on mobile
• Made bigger buttons for account info
• Moved language select on mobile to make room

Please let me know if you find any issues! Site will be a little slow as the caches populate. Lots of servers running though to make it fast.

Massive redesign. Hopefully everyone likes it. Oh and Niantic pushed out Hydro Cannon so all new results too. Hydro Cannon is a great move but unfortunately Blastoise does not have good enough stats for it to be too useful.

• Rearranged almost everything
• Added tabs
• Added buttons
• Removed bottom and side nav bar for desktop
• Added top nav bar for desktop
• Hydro Cannon added.

Please let me know if you find any issues! Site will be a little slow as the caches populate. Lots of servers running though to make it fast.

Minor bug fixes.

• Fixed weather drop down on Pokedex
• Fixed single view on rankings page

As always thanks for the bug reports!

Massive support for friends.

• Added friends drop downs to Gym Battle, Raid Battle and Raid Guide
• Added big drop downs for Weather and Friends to battle results
• Added missing Alola pokemon (other than Golem and Exeggutor)

Major performance optimizations, including methodology changes

• Now limits the number of moves to 12 on raid counter results(sorry Mew).
• Now uses the results from level 40v40, no dodging, no friends, with the selected weather for the results for all other pages

Previously the cap was 36 moves which is just silly and was causing some timeouts on the back end. Also was using dodging which didn't really affect results in most situations. This will greatly increase performance on the slowest ranking pages.

Fixed Unown.

• Users with Unown in their pokebox can now perform calculations

Tried to get Unown working for all the letters and ended up breaking it entirely

Looks like only Regice is here.

• Added Alola forms
• Updated raids with new raids
• Moved Registeel and Regirock to future raids

Kept Registeel and Regirock as available attackers because they barely show up anywhere

The Regis are here.

• Updated raids
• Added Regice, Registeel and Regirock to available attackers

Minor bug fix release

• Fixed drop down for random assistants

Minor bug fix release

• Fixed drop down for attack strategy

Bug fix release

• Tons of tiny back end changes to prevent full errors. If you see Unown characters you probably did something wrong
• Made the site work for IE 11. No I don't know why anyone would use such a browser. It's a good way to get a virus but as you wish
• Bumped max pokemon for Fanatics to 2000 and Patreon level supporters to 600.
• Increased number of pokemon considered for custom sims by 100%
• Increased min server cluster size 40% and max server cluster size 100%.

Overall the site should have fewer errors and much better performance, even on release days. Thanks to all the Patreon supporters for making this all possible

Smack Down for Tyranitar and simulation improvements for today

• Smack down has arrived for Tyranitar!
• Death time increased to 1.9 seconds
• Lag for quick attacks increased to 28ms

Another stability and performance patch

So a midnight release has a bug. Shocking development! Rankings now often have 2 Exeggutor in them

• Added Exeggutor - Alola to ranking results
• Increased speed on new servers (aka changed a 300 to a 500)
• Fixed a memory leak
• Regenerating results again

The first Alolan form has been released in Exeggutor!

• Added Exeggutor Alola!
• Reduced death delay from 2 seconds down to 1 second based on gamemaster swapDurationMs value
• Fixed bug with large calculation results

Massive changes to the backend in this release. After this is tested, I will be much better able to control costs for the site while also increasing performance!

• Fix for missing Togetic moveset

Raid bosses have reverted

• Fixed an issue where Piloswine was showing up as a tier 4
• Fixed bug with 'show this result without power ups'
• Reverted raid bosses
• Tweaked auto scaling code, should be better performance when big events happen

Initial simulations of Charizard with Blast Burn have been released based on this youtube video. It is a 2 bar 100 power attack with aproximately the same speed as Frenzy Plant. Site will be a little slow today as everything needs to be regenerated

Minor release to swap Latios and Latias
