That's incredibly weird. What version of Node.js are you using?

Zarel commented 6 years ago

I can't think of a Node version that passes the version test and–

OHHH IT'S AN INCREDIBLY OLD VERSION OF NODE THAT'S WHY

Zarel commented 6 years ago

Anyway, your problem is that you installed Node from repositories. Repositories only offer incredibly outdated versions of Node.

Do this:

npm i -g n
n latest
./pokemon-showdown 8000
