I'm creating a tool for Pokemon's Rom (actually for gen 3 and 5) for people who wants to be helped in their adventures, learn the importance of IV's and EV's in pokemon and have a system that helps them to create the best team, if you wanna take a look and maybe help the project, put a star and take a look to the repo

Are you new to Pokemon's games?

try this tool that helps you to keep track that your team in real time while you are playing your favorite Pokemon game [actually gen3 and gen5] on your PC[windows, linux, macOS], you want to learn how IV's and EV's works? take a look to the repository and download it HERE, maybe give a star if you like the idea. THANKS

I built a free, open-source tool that reads your Pokémon team live from mGBA and analyses its type coverage

An open-source desktop app that reads a Pokémon party out of an emulator's RAM as you play and analyses it. Sharing it because a few of the design problems turned out more interesting than I expected.

The emulator script interprets nothing. A Lua script inside mGBA ships raw bytes and a game identity over TCP; all decoding happens on the C# side. Adding an emulator costs a script and zero lines of domain logic.
are keyed by game, not by generation. 42 of the 386 Gen 3 species learn a move at a different level in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald than in FireRed/LeafGreen, so the usual merged dataset reports a level that is wrong for the game actually running.
No opaque scores. The team strength number is a list of attributed factors, each carrying the fact behind it and the Pokémon responsible.
Apple Silicon refuses unsigned binaries — the kernel kills them and Finder calls the app "damaged", which is not the Gatekeeper prompt it looks like. Cross-publishing macOS builds from a Linux runner cannot work.

.NET 10, Avalonia, PKHeX.Core for the binary format. 122 tests, some driven from bytes captured off real hardware. There's a decision log in the repo if you want the reasoning behind any of it.
