Stat Indicators

[DashBlacK]

You know how in Showdown, there are indicators that show what stats are boosted by how many stages, well something like that should be added the PokeMMO battle screens. Basically, it'll help keep track of how many spikes, or stat boosts, etc. and it will help people who start spectating a match not from the beginning to see what is going on. Shouldn't be that hard, just a basic tooltip of some sort to indicate whether a gyara has boosted up to +6 ATK and +6 Speed, or that there are 3x spikes on the field. This can even possibly pave the way for more animations, for example an arcanine switching in could show that it's ability caused said gyara's atk to go down to +5, etc. Although, not sure why anyone would make a switch like that.

 

There is a lot of empty space in the battle screens that can be utilised. I suggest under the pokemon name bars, you can have icons pointing upward with a number overlaid ranging from -6 to +6. Different colours of the arrows could stand for different stats, or you could even use words.

 

TL;DR - Add stat indicators.

On top of this can we also have:

 

• Countdowns for Reflect / Light Screen
• Weather Duration
• Taunt Duration
• Encore Duration

in general just an overall Battle UI update that shows this stuff, would be a really nice Quality of Life change for a lot of people I feel.

There's just so much wasted space in the current Battle UI which can be utilised for more practical things.
