It has been so long since an update to the simulator has come it seems. So many deltas and megas are missing, and with this being the only way fans can battle, due to the removal of the on-game PvP system, it kind of limits people, especially for something such as a Rivallocke, that includes battles.

there won’t be an update to the sim, since the devs dont plan on updating it
welcome to the community though!
I think some people on the Forums are working on it. No official updates though. Anyway, welcome to the community.

Welcome to the forums! The devs have mentioned that since they’ve moved on to other projects, the only way the sim is getting updated is if someone does all the coding for it.
EDIT: Ninja’d, haha
During the chrismas vacation, I think I’ll bring out those programming abilities I have and start by correcting some bugs and apply the change in Pokémon stats, movepool and abilities.

Which language does it use though? Is it JavaScript?
No idea.

If I knew what language it was written, I may be able to do updates to it myself. But, I don’t. Oh well.

yo the sim is working again, you still wanna use showdown?
It is kind of sad that they have no intention of finishing it. Considering the amount of content left out of the current version. I’ll look at the code, and see if there’s anything I can pick up on, because I’ve never worked with Ruby. And even then, I am an amateur.
maybe for the abilities and stuff and you can just copy and paste it from the game’s code
It does not use Ruby. It’s mostly Coffeescript.
It’s also not the same as the games code at all.

Thank you for the reply. Unfortunately, I still know nothing about that script, lol. Perhaps someone else can pick it up, but unless I learn coffee, I’m useless here

You’re not useless at this. Honestly I hope you stay around because not many members are active at one time.

I dunno if this is technically against the rules to update this almost a month or so later, but, there is a very fun development. A buddy and I are currently working on a battle sim server on Showdown, to include all Insurgence mons, updated to Gen 8, along with their movepools, and even some abilities. Supposedly, it should take around three to four months, if it all goes according to plan

While it is technically not a rule, I would refrain from posting in any topics that are over a week old. It is considered necroing; reviving a dead post. Everyone who ever posted here gets a notification, and this dead topic moves up in terms of recent topics. Essentially, please don’t necro again.
On another note, that sounds interesting. I’ll have to take a look when it comes out.
YES.l
