Exporting teams in old generations inconsistent and not 1:1
To reproduce:
- Create a team in generation 1 or 2
- Add a Pokemon to the team
- Click export, you'll get something like
Cloyster
Ability: No Ability - Back out of the export
- Adjust all EVs down to 0
- Click export, you'll get the exact same output as when all EVs were maxed
- Back out of the export
- Adjust all EVs back up to 252
- Click export, you'll get something like
Cloyster
Ability: No Ability
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpA / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
In old generations, I would expect all EVs set to 252 to not print anything for the EVs line, and I would expect all EVs set to 0 to print 0 for all.
I think I would prefer 0 EVs to always be printed in gen 1 and 2, and never print 252 EVs. If I've set my Atk EV to 0 to minimize confusion damage, it's kind of strange right now that every EV is printed except Atk, even though that's all that I've changed.
