Speed calculator: Meta Top quick-pick & usage rates

The “my Pokémon” picker now has a “Meta Top 50” button — pick one to apply its most common build (stat alignment, stat points, ability). On the rival side, a “Meta Top” dropdown (All/10/20/30/40/50) filters the speed table down to the most-used Pokémon, with a new column showing each one's usage rate beside its Speed. The panels were also refreshed: stat alignment, stat points and stage now use the same grid controls as the damage calculator, abilities show their effect text, and the weather/terrain row is more compact.

Team builder: Meta matchup analysis

Team analysis now includes Meta Matchups: your team is checked against the format's most-used Pokémon (choose the top 10/20/30/40/50), flagging unfavorable matchups (their common attack types are super-effective on 2+ members with no team member able to answer safely) and favorable ones (a member that takes no super-effective hit and hits back super-effectively). Their threat types cover STAB plus the damaging moves they actually run; your members' chosen abilities (e.g. Levitate, Thick Fat) are factored in. Open “Detail table” for the full attacks/hit-by multiplier grid — with each Pokémon's own typing and common attack types, names linking to their usage page, and hovering an alert highlighting the matching spots.

Team builder: common teammate suggestions

While your team has open slots, candidates are suggested from real tournament pairing stats: Pokémon recommended by more of your current members rank higher, with the strongest pairing highlighted (lift = how much more often the two appear together than random chance; hover a member icon for each value). One click adds it to the first open slot — picking a Mega form auto-equips its Mega Stone.

Team builder: common set suggestions

While editing a slot, the Pokémon's most common tournament sets (ability, item, moves, stat alignment and stat points) are listed right below — Pokémon with Mega forms show base and Mega sets side by side. Apply one with a click without changing your Pokémon choice.

Damage calculator: Meta Top 50 quick-pick

Both the attacker and defender pickers now have a “Meta Top 50” button listing the format's 50 most-used Pokémon with their usage rates. Pick one to instantly apply its most common build (ability, item, stat points, stat alignment) — a quick way to check damage against the metagame's staples.

Usage: new Weaknesses tab

See what share of appearing Pokémon are weak to each attacking type (weighted by appearances), with week-over-week rank changes. Expand a type to see the Pokémon behind the number, grouped into 4× and 2× with each one's share; abilities that rewrite a weakness are annotated (e.g. Levitate immune to Ground, Thick Fat turning 4× Ice into 2×). Works with the week, stage and source filters.

Nav rename + Columns category dropdown

Renamed nav items: “Dex” → “Database”. The Columns tab now has a tools-style dropdown listing the categories that currently have articles (e.g. “Basics”); picking a category shows only that type, while clicking Columns itself still shows all.

Faster loads: home, news, events, team & tournament pages

Home, news, events, team and tournament pages load faster, with near-instant repeat visits.

Faster usage pages

Switching filters (stage / source / week) on the usage page and opening a per-Pokémon page load faster — the first look at a new combination waits about 30–40% less.

Teams: featured ranking + instant results/usage

The Teams library is no longer sorted only by “newest”: added four modes — Featured / Top results / Most used / Newest (Featured, the default, blends best placement, number of events, and recency so champion and popular teams surface first while new teams still get a look). Placement / medals (🥇🥈🥉) and event count show on page open instead of waiting on a second load.

Faster Regulation Dex: list first, move filter loads after

The Regulation Dex opens faster: the Pokémon list shows instantly instead of waiting on move data. The “filter by move” list loads in the background and is only needed when you open the dropdown, so it no longer blocks browsing; shared ?moves= links still render the filtered result directly.

Faster tournament pages

Opening an event, toggling All / Top Cut, and opening a team are all much faster: repeat visits are near-instant, even for events with thousands of teams. The All / Top Cut switch is now instant.

Team Builder: duplicate Pokémon warning

When the same Pokémon is placed in more than one slot, the affected slots now show a ⚠ warning and a yellow border (mega forms and alternate forms of the same species count as duplicates too).

Usage by tournament source + VictoryRoad & official-major ingestion

The usage page gains a Source selector: view Limitless community events, VictoryRoad community events, and official majors separately, or all combined (shown only when ≥2 sources exist). Source combines freely with the All / Top Cut and Week views; VictoryRoad community events and official events were imported too. For majors split by age division, Senior / Junior teams are browsable in their own sections on the tournament page and enter the team library, while usage stats stay Masters only.

Top Cut view for tournaments and usage

Tournaments and usage now offer an All / Top Cut toggle. The tournament page switches between the full roster and the Top Cut, and shows that event’s own Pokémon usage; events with a Top Cut open on it by default. The usage page gains an All / Top Cut selector. The Teams library filter gains a “Top Cut” option, judged from each event’s actual cut (cut sizes vary).

Per-Pokémon usage page: set cards, add to team, effect tooltips, teammate synergy

A full redesign of the per-Pokémon usage page. You can switch weeks right on the page. New “Common Sets”, render as team-builder Pokémon cards (six per row); each can be copied to Showdown or added to your team — dropped into an empty slot, or (when the team is full) replacing a member or starting a new team; Mega cards also surface the recorded ability to tell apart sets that differ only by ability. Abilities / items / moves gain expandable effect tooltips (with a one-click expand-all). Items and common teammates show icons, and teammates link to their own usage page. When a listed ability isn’t the Pokémon’s own, it is flagged as a Mega-form / non-Mega-form ability or as bad source data. Common teammates gain a “synergy (lift)” column and a how-to-read table. The header shows this period’s appearances, usage rate and rank, plus a tournaments / teams / players summary.

Usage: weekly trends, common sets, cores, megas, Pokémon search

The usage page evolved into team-building views. Added a week selector for per-week overall and per-Pokémon usage, defaulting to the latest week; Top trends has a line chart, each Pokémon page gains a weekly sparkline, and rankings show week-over-week rank movement. New “2-Core / 3-Core” (the pairs and trios most often seen together, sortable by usage or by “synergy (lift)” — actual co-occurrence ÷ co-occurrence expected from each Pokémon’s solo usage — with a collapsible how-to-read guide and a sample-scaled support threshold), and a “Megas” ranking (each mega form ranked separately). All four rankings gain a Pokémon search (by name, dex number, ability or type); each row links to a detail page or a “Teams” shortcut filtered to teams running it, and core members link to their details with a whole-combo “Teams” shortcut. Selecting a week trims the trend charts to that week, and a “Highlights” summary surfaces the most-used, top-synergy and biggest weekly climbs / drops / new entries; the stats line (tournaments / teams / players and dates) follows the selected week. The “How to read” guide is split into quick-read and details sections.

Fix missing alternate forms & mega miscounts, flag off-format teams

Fixes several alternate-form issues in team parsing. Paldean Tauros, female forms (Indeedee / Meowstic / Basculegion), and Showdown import/export species names were wrong; historical teams were backfilled. Also fixes Eternal Floette and female Meowstic holding their mega stone being counted as the base form instead of Mega. Teams holding multi-word mega stones (“Charizardite X/Y”) were likewise stored as plain Charizard and not shown as Mega — also fixed. Removes contaminated teams from mis-linked old-format teamlists, flags teams containing off-format Pokémon in the Teams library and detail page.

Team detail redesign

The team detail page now reuses the team builder’s six side-by-side cards (with type / move / Stat-Point tooltips); team names are unified to “<player>’s first Pokémon” and carried into “Open in builder”. Appearance rows put the event date before the name, add a source link at the end.

Teams: filter by Pokémon, tournament on team cards

Teams gains include/exclude Pokémon filters. Team cards now show the tournament name and date, and teams seen in several events are marked “In N tournaments”. Filtered results now cover every matching team and no longer break on large datasets.

Tournaments: tabs and filters

Upcoming and Archive are now switchable tabs with unified cards. Both tabs gain match-date and match-time filters, and now shows all tournaments by default. Sharing community/official and online/on-site filters.

New Tournaments, Teams, and Usage pages

Scrape tournaments from Limitless and aggregate Pokémon usage + conditional distribution (move / item / nature / stat points / teammates).

Team Builder: factor effective move type into coverage analysis

Pixilate / Refrigerate / Aerilate / Dragonize rewrite Normal moves; Liquid Voice flips sound moves to Water; Paldean Tauros Raging Bull resolves to Fighting / Water / Fire by breed. Shows the same ⚡ marker + tooltip as the damage calculator.

Team Builder: upgraded matchup analysis (coverage gaps, defense hotspots, row/column highlights)

Attack coverage gaps are called out where no Pokémon can hit ×2; defense hotspots list ×4 weaknesses, "hot" columns with 2+ Pokémon weak at ×2 and no resistances, and "lonely" columns with only a single Pokémon providing resistance. Hovering any item in the analysis highlights the corresponding row/column/cell.

Nav restructure: split Tools into Dex + Tools

Dex = Regulation Dex / Type Matchup / Moves / Items; Tools = Speed Calc / Damage Calc / Team Builder.

Unified move filter bar across Moves / Damage Calc / Team Builder

All three pages now share the same filter set (search + class + type + flags + target + Champions-only). Damage Calc keeps excluding status moves.

Team Builder: full hover tooltips on team cards (type matchup / ability / item / nature / stats / move / coverage)

Hover a card type for defense profile; ability shows full description; item shows name + effect; EV block shows nature and battle stats; move name shows power / accuracy / PP / priority / effect; move type badge shows coverage.

New Team Builder: 6-slot lineup, in-place expand editor, Mega display toggle, format-filtered

Each slot: Pokémon / ability / nature / item / 4 moves / EVs. Toggle in the editor swaps the displayed form (stats / types / ability update live).

New Type Matchup page: interactive 18×18 type chart, showing Pokémon that match the selected types

Pick up to 2 attacker and 2 defender types to highlight rows/columns; selecting 2 defenders inserts a combined-multiplier column right next to the attacker labels (0/¼/½/1/2/4). Two side-by-side lists below show Pokémon matching the attacker types and defender types.

Regulation Dex: add Pokémon weakness/resistance columns, streamline and beautify tables

Rename Format Browser → Regulation Dex

Move List: filters, columns, and detail expansion

Target and flag filter chips, priority / effect columns, auto-fit column widths, and click a move row to see which Pokémon can learn it.

Search: effect-text matching, clear button, full/half-width parity

Move / ability / item search now matches effect descriptions; the search box has a clear button; names are NFKC-normalized so full-width and half-width queries match the same entries.

Damage Calculator: Mega Sol + Protean

Mega Meganium's Mega Sol treats moves as if in Sun (Weather Ball → Fire BP 100, Solar Beam/Blade no longer halved under rain/sand/snow, Fire ×1.5, Water ×0.5, Solar Power activates). Protean (Greninja / Meowscarada) always grants STAB ×1.5.

Damage Calculator: Champions ability effects

huge-power, guts, blaze line, fairy-aura, sand-force, supreme-overlord, analytic, sharpness, reckless, mold-breaker, unaware, scrappy, merciless, shell-armor, earth-eater, purifying-salt, fur-coat, marvel-scale, dragonize.

Damage Calculator: Champions special move effects

Body Press / Foul Play / Psyshock / Last Respects / Weather Ball / Dual Wingbeat / Triple Axel etc. (~80 moves), including multi-hit ranges, cumulative BP, ability type rewrites (pixilate family).

Damage Calculator: end-of-turn residual + terrain grounding

Per-side end-of-turn HP delta (burn / poison / sandstorm). Terrain boost gated by grounded flag; flying / levitate / air-balloon auto-detected.

Damage Calculator: BP / type change markers

Move row shows effective BP and type, with a ⚡ marker and tooltip listing original value, hit count, or per-segment BP sequence.
