Pokemon Uranium Battle Simulator - now online!

[Dragonstrike]

….That actually sorta kills my hopes for comp for me, since I like the aspects of true simulators taking out all the tedious breeding and grinding for the right Pokémon and simply focusing on battling. Its still a marked improvement over the current system, but its not one I find all to friendly to people who just want to get right to battling without faffing about with the main campaign/breeding/training or begging breeders to give them several legs up. That, and you can't create nearly as many teams if they are directly based on the Pokémon you got, so flexibility goes straight out of the window too....

Well, I think the idea is present because the online in the actual game is all kinds of messed up, and it might not ever be quite right.

I wouldn't complain if it stayed as is with the option to sync your existing pokemon (when they get that working) while still retaining the option to simulate them.  However, I can understand why they'd be inclined to remove the simulation aspect alltogether (encourages breeding in the actual game and collecting those one-time mystery gifts).  Both methods have their pros and cons.  *shrug*
