    Every time I try to install the client, every file from cries.txt to the rest is corrupted and I can't finish the installation. Anyone else having this issue?

    sploosh: this is testing, if you have a problem, don't bother installing it
    skaraflame: same. Even if the IP is in the OP.

    Having problems. The .exe just loads my Gen 4 client.
    I have Gen 4 in: \Saved Games\Pokemon Online\
    I have Gen 5 in: \Saved Games\Pokemon Online - Gen 5\

    When I load it via start menu, the window is just a toolbar.

    you can't go on 4th gen servers (like Beta Server) with the new client.

    you can't go on the 5th gen server (like the one with the IP in the OP) with the old client.

    The OP says the server is down for now. Any speculation as to when it will be back up?

    Ya Im getting connection refused as well, glad its not me, I was worried I got banned or something cause I was in a battle where I used zoroark and then the poke I had copied, the opponent said "Cheating bitch" cause it appeared I ahd used the same poke twice, then he rage DCed then suddenly my connection ended.

    You're opponent obviously wasn't very intelligent; Random Matches follow all Standard Rules.

    Updates/Improvements

    Edit: It's also a TEST server. Coyotte can do whatever he wants with it. I'm glad he's letting it run at all for 5th Gen stuff.

    You can't test fixes and improvements without restarting either. As you need to run a new program.

    I removed it until next testing phase, to avoid useless downloads -- because anyway you won't be able to battle with it.

    The client that was up for download before.
    Also he doesn't need a server, you can make teams without a server.

    I reduced it for you, to a "not-bothering" level.

    I would assume the initial request to shrink it would be a "yes" in this case.

    Why can't we just carry on with the current test until you can update?

    I assume you don't know how coding works.

    It's just not possible to code WHILE hosting a server. And you would have to check if the coding is correct so that bugs will nor occur. Any bugs or errors found that the creator did not know/notice will be reported, then it repeats, until there aren't any more bugs.

    This is probably the most compelling argument for anything I've ever seen

    Just realized

    Please focus your attention on
    What new clause Coyo?

    With these ones saying lack of research do you need indepth explainations of what each things does?
    This is just some research and opinions that may help....
    Healing Heart - It will occasionally heal its team mate's status problems. sort of a mix between Shed Skin Ability and Aromatherapy Move. Shed skin because it has some sort of percentage or rate when it heals the users status problem and Aromatherapy where it deals with the whole party's status problems.
    Friend Card - It can lower the damage to a team-mate. Basically it has a similar build to Telepathy (where the pokemon reads the mind of its team-mates and is unaffected by their attacks. Prevents damage from team-mates during Double and Triple battles) but instead lowers it by some sort of percentage (depending on the effectivness around 50 - 75% I would say).
    Analyse - If you are last to attack, the move becomes more powerful. this would be a similar build to moves like counter, revenge, payback though instead of the attack becoming more powerful due to the user being hurt first, this ability would make that move more powerful even if the opponent uses a status move or stat increasing/decreasing move.

    Hopefully this'll help somewhat

    Also with rearranging a team couldn't it just be done in the team builder? O_o

    5P33D5, Coyo knows the effects, research requires in game testing to see what chance (%) they have to occur and the specifics behind each move/effect. This is mainly because some of the new moves and items are not as straightforward to prgram as most of the items/moves/abilities that were available in the previous gens.

    I did the "Wifi Battle" clause (lets you rearrange pokemon) as well as the Self KO clause.

    I want to thank all of you who's making this possible. I look forward to PO since it's the best simulator hands down. It makes pokemon fun on the PC :D. Anyway, did you implement Future Sight and Doom Desire? They have a type now. Just so you didnt know xD.
