Alright, updated the post thanks. Adrevi also managed Screech to Fire Blast, so those have been updated. I move Barrier and lightscreen into hard for now. The `.heal` member got fixed as well, it's a percentage to heal now, so moves like recover set it to 50 for 50% heal.

EDIT: Recharge moves such as hyperbeam have been moved to easy and completed. Now attaching the FLAG_RECHARGE to the move will do the entire recharge effect without need for a callback.

another batch done

Waterfall
Swift
Spike Cannon
Amnesia
Kinesis
Soft-Boiled
Glare
Poison Gas
Barrage

also changed
posion_powder_procs to posion_100_procs

nuzzle_procs to paralyze_100_procs

twineedle_procs to poison_20_procs

all of them have been readjusted in the respective moves using them and those moves have been tested

double hitting moves causing errors

another batch coming up, there you go:

Leech life
Lovely Kiss
Bubble
Dizzy Punch
Spore

Splash
Acid Armor
Crabhammer
Fury Swipes

Awesome. I've moved Psybeam to medium. Also moved rest to medium and finished it! The type change moves are new able to be done as well. I'm currently working on a few of those. Double hits were fixed as well.

PSYWAVE doneo!

Just dropping in to update. We've got 190~ moves finished between the three of us, (myself, ASDBUDDY and Adrevi). Most of the impossible section has been reduced significantly. It's now just a handful of moves remaining in that section.

I hope we'll get some more people joining in soon. Personally I've finished a moves that call other moves, weather effects, protection, protection breaking moves, and revamped the callback system in the past couple of days. Progress is going well, and I hope we get more contributors to speed things up! I should emphasize that programming knowledge is not needed to help with the easy moves!

190 moves done already! Awesome going FBI, I will join you guys after a while. (Family problems going on atm)

Hey, guys, I just wanted to say thanks and kudos for the amazing work you've done! I'd love to contribute, but I'm going to have to re-teach myself coding first...

Thanks for the compliments. Actually some of this doesn't require programming.

We've been working secretly in the back and currently we are 437 / 603 moves done so far. 107 of the remaining moves require no programming and we'd love the extra man power!

Great work! You guys are the best!

Z-moves and a couple of "clones".

Will this battle system include new abilities or it's just limited to moves?

Everything to match the latest mechanism.

Nice idea!, I would like to help but, I've got limited knowledge on that area
Btw, it was mentioned that everything would be included in order to match the latest mechanism, does that means the megaevolutions will also be included?

Yeah, I hope so and If you want to help PM me.

May I ask which moves wouldn't require programming? And how so? Also, maybe not the right place to ask, but has expanding the length of move names (Hi Jump Kick -> High Jump Kick) been looked into at all?
