    As the title says, I have a little android with a pretty small screen, it would be perfect apart from the fact the battle text window in the middle is forced to be 2 lines tall. Meaning whenever a turn happens I have to scroll up and down every turn to see the events. Which is a bit of a bummer.

    If an adjustable window size fix is out of the question/not possible how about a simple text scrolling option? Atm it prints it all to screen instantly, if the words rolled out letter by letter it would much easier to see the battle events.

    Anyone else have this issue?

    Hai, thank you for joining the forums.

    Official site for Android development is http://code.google.com/p/pokemon-online-android/

    This forum is mostly for the Desktop client (Windows / Mac / Linux). But yeah, it is known that Androids with too small screens don't function properly.

    Thanks for the speedy reply Lamperi. I'll bring up the issue on that site.

    Also if you don't mind me asking is there a simple Pokemon FAQ or open question thread here? Can't find one anywhere. Really want to know how PO decides what dreamworld ability's get banned, and if so if it is always applies to all tiers.

    Dream World abilities are banned in Wifi tiers, if they have not been released by Nintendo. This means, any legit ways to get the ability (promotion, release in Dream World) will move the dream world ability to our Wifi tiers. If the tier has "DW" in it's name, it allows for unreleased pokemon and abilities, if it has "Wifi" it does not. For all the remaining tiers, you just have to ask people or try.

    You can use /dwreleased pokespecies e.g. "/dwreleased Bulbasaur" on our server to get info if it is released.

    Thanks folks,

    Last question before the thread lock-up. I'm guessing the reason I can't roll with a Remoraid with Moody is since Moody is just banned outright? This confuses me since I cannot use Ditto with Imposter in NU, so it seems sometimes the rules only apply in certain tiers. Just wondering if Remoraid would be allowed to use Moody in any tier above the Little cup (NU to be precise). A rather odd question/request I know.

    Moody is banned in all ladders except Doubles / Triples and Challenge Cup.
