Suggestion for "counter" search

Open fatcatfan opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

The idea is something that sort of combines the "offense" and "defense" modes of your calculator: given a Pokemon's type(s) and moveset (or just types of the moveset like your current offense calculator), to return a list of Pokemon without a weakness to the moveset, but that can learn moves that are super effective against the 'mon. Ideally sorted or highlighting 'mon with resistances, immunities, or 4x super-effective moves. Or a shortcut might be to just consider the type(s) of the result Pokemon, rather than their entire learnset, since STAB moves are usually what you're going to prefer anyway.

I really like this idea. Thanks for reporting it :-) I'll be sure to let you know if/when I start working on it
