Alias Megathread

[Anna says hi]

Some minor aliases that I've seen being used before but aren't implemented on showdown:
Boom -> Explosion
Gapdos -> Zapdos-Galar
Koff -> Knock Off
Knock -> Knock Off

 

[Aquaa]

"eforce" for "Expanding Force".

"dib" for "Double Iron Bash".

 

[TailGlowVM]

Nite - Dragonite
Goltres - Galarian Moltres
Toad - Seismitoad
Lucha - Hawlucha
Glowking and Glowbro - Galarian Slowbro and Slowking respectively

pogre -> primal kyoge
pdon -> primal groudon

 

[DaWoblefet]

pogre -> primal kyoge
pdon -> primal groudon

These already exist.

 

[Fc]

These already exist.

it seems like "don" and "ogre" exist but not pdon and pogre. Small issue since don and ogre still pull up the primals just not first, but I've found myself putting pdon into the builder so these would be a nice qol addition.

Apparently these already exist as aliases in /dt but not the teambuilder, which is where the confusion comes from.

 

[Diophantine]

Can we collectively agree to stop calling Suicune a racist word? Dr Umar Johnson is watching y'all

Currently, "wormadam-s" and "wormadam-sc" bring up wormadam-trash for some reason - why is "wormadam-s(c)" not an alias of wormadam-sandy (cloak)?
Related note: "wormadam-t" and "wormadam-tc" aren't aliases of anything atm, let's make them alias to wormadam-trash.

 

[Dorron]

I think Ace for Cinderace would be a good addition

 

[TheGunfireGuy]

Aero-Ass -> Aerial Ace.

Yes, it's literally just the German name of the move, but it's become a meme in the gen 3 battle frontier community. Besides, we've used other German aliases.

e: some form alias suggestions that i've never seen anyone use but you can't possibly mistake these for anything else

Zygarde-Ten -> Zygarde-10%
Zygarde-T -> Zygarde-10%
Zygarde-F -> Zygarde-50%
Necrozma-M -> Necrozma-Dusk-Mane
Necrozma-S -> Necrozma-Dusk-Mane
Necrozma-W -> Necrozma-Dawn-Wings
Necrozma-L -> Necrozma-Dawn-Wings

 

[Adeleine]

last I remembered talking to z about this, aliases should be things people use, and I'd probably recommend the same

 

[NotFrancy]

Dragapult -> Pult
Excadrill -> Exca
Corviknight-> Corvi
Pelipper -> Peli
Zeraora -> Zera
Barraskewda -> Barra

 

[SEA]

Lax -> Snorlax
Even though boom and tect have been mentioned before, going to second those.

 

[NB402141]

Lax -> Snorlax
Even though boom and tect have been mentioned before, going to second those.

I don't think that can work since Lax is already a nature.
Also,
rai -> darkrai
when you type rai it send you to rayquaza and in the teambuilder it shows raikou and raichu
Nala -> lunala
when you type it it shows nagandela

 

[NB402141]

Sorry bout double post.

Zama -> zamazenta
zama-c -> zamazenta-crowned
zac -> zacian
zac-c -> zacian-crowned
marsh -> marshadow
puff -> slurpuff
eleki -> regieleki
drago -> regidrago
draco -> draco meteor
shifu -> urshifu
resh -> reshiram
zek -> zekrom
caly -> calyrex
caly-i -> calyrex-ice
caly-s -> calyrex-shadow
etern -> eternatus

 

[Zephyri]

glowking for slowking-g and glowbro for slowbro-g

 

[Duel]

Alowak -> Marowak-A

 

[Will]

dmax cannon -> dynamax cannon

 

[doc1203]

Rilla -> Rillaboom
Zone -> Magnezone
Lucha --> Hawlucha

 

[DrPumpkinz]

Shuca Berry -> Ground Berry, etc.

Could maybe cause some problems with Yache Berry since I'm pretty sure Ice Berry is the name of Gen 2 Rawst Berry, so Ground Resist, Ice Resist, etc. could work instead.

 

[idea]

Can we have bounceable be added as an alias of reflectable (for /ms)? Would be nice, especially since when using /dt the flag is bounceable, not reflectable.

 

[dex]

Got a bunch of CAP ones here

Chrom -> Chromera
Maw -> Miasmaw
Roak -> Pyroak
Plas -> Plasmanta
Cruci -> Crucibelle
Volk -> Volkraken
Moth -> Aurumoth
Argho -> Arghonaut
Cari -> Caribolt
Colo -> Colossoil
Clohm -> Cyclohm This one works already
Kerf -> Kerfluffle
Kit -> Kitsunoh
Mala -> Malaconda
Navi -> Naviathan
Nect -> Necturna
Rev -> Revenankh
Smoko -> Smokomodo
Snael -> Snaelstrom
Strata -> Stratagem (hilariously, this one pops up with the server time for some reason)
Ant -> Syclant (I understand if this is troublesome given durant, but durant doesn't actually pop up with /dt ant, nothing does)

And for Gen 6 and 7:
Mega Cruci -> Crucibelle-Mega

 

[quziel]

Dual Wingbeat => dwb
