Thanks Bulbagarden's list of type combinations and pokemondb's type chart

Poke-env Attributes

battle.team
print(battle.active_pokemon.base_stats)
# atk, def, hp, spa, spd, spe
print(battle.active_pokemon.base_stats["spe"])
print(battle.opponent_active_pokemon.base_stats["spe"])
print(battle.active_pokemon.current_hp)
print(battle.opponent_active_pokemon.current_hp)
print(battle.active_pokemon.ability)
print(battle.opponent_active_pokemon.ability)

return self.create_order(battle.available_switches[0])

switches to first available pokemon

TODO

• If I'm hyper weak switch to next available pokemon
• if outpseed and stronger use higest power attack
• bug not switch if no available switch
• bug avoid non damaging moves like roost if you want to attack
• bug avoid imune moves like and eletric move against ground pokemon

Future Improvements

• Decision making based on bulbapedia data or other source
• Refactor Ash
• Train a ML algorithm
• Try without include poke-env lib
