6 years ago Without opening the spreadsheet for probably over a year now, it should be fairly trivial. The branching structure isn’t really required except to support the Evolve tab, and so you can really just create new rows with a unique ID (Pokémon ID which has been the dex number but no reason you can’t just make them 9999 or something even alphanumeric eg 003A 003B for different Venusaur forms) for each Alolan form. The IV calculation will just look up that row and do the work itself. If you need support on the Evolve tab then you need to map in the family ID and what stage it is. There may be a few other columns of data you need then it calculates the branching automatically I believe...
Let me know if it works. I might try have a look when I’m back on a computer in a week but currently on vacation. Super busy with new life responsibilities too so can’t promise anything. On Thu, 31 May 2018 at 12:52, MizeryMade notifications@github.com wrote:
Hey again Collin. I figure you've probably stopped playing by this point as you had noted dwindling activity some time ago, but thought it couldn't hurt to reach out to see if you had a little time to work something in or had some advice how one might "hack it in themselves" (read, "not very elegantly add" lol).
If you aren't keeping up with the game anymore, Niantic spring-boarded forward to introduce Alolan forms from Gen 7, which are alternate forms of some Kanto pokemon (Gen 1). They have released Exeggutor, and the others seem to be on the horizon. Unlike Castform who has the same stats and it's simply a re-skin and different set of moves -- these pokemon have different stats than their normal counterparts (another example where form handling could come in handy is Deoxys from Gen 3, since it has 4 different forms with different stats). It also currently looks like you can't evolve non-Alolan forms into Alolan forms -- otherwise it could've probably been handled similar to a branched evolution tree.
Having looked into the Pokemon Data sheet in the past, if it were simply a new generation, I could probably figure out adding them in. However, since these are the same 'mon (same Dex#, Name, etc. but different stats)... not sure how/if that could be handled with the current framework you've laid out. The branched evolutions had me stumped upon Gen 3's release, haha.
Any ideas?
