Pokemoves Bot is a Discord chat bot created to aid Pokemon GO PvP players, based on the pokemoves site project and written in node.js. A basic rundown of the PvP system is that Pokemon have a single fast move and up to 2 charged moves. Each use of the fast move generates a certain amount of energy that is used to "charge" the charged move. Knowing how many fast moves it takes for a Pokemon to generate enough energy to launch a charged move is vital information in high levels of play. This bot will take a Pokemon name as input and return the counts of how many of each fast move it will take to generate the energy for its charged moves.
Uses:
- Node.js v 17.0.1
- discord.js v13
