Alias Megathread

[Barraskeon]

Caly-S --> Calyrex-Shadow
Caly-I --> Calyrex-Ice

I have been typing them like this for ever and in still confused on why they dont exist

 

[drampa's grandpa]

Morfent's Husbando-gmax does not pull up Gengar-Gmax
Morfent's Husbando-mega does work

This is an affront against nature

 

[TailGlowVM]

I don't know if you want move abbreviations listed here as well? If not, you should perhaps make a new thread as a few fairly important ones are missing, such as:

Cane - Hurricane
DIB - Double Iron Bash
DW is recognised as Dual Wingbeat but DWB isn't, and I'm pretty sure the latter is the generally used abbreviation

 

[Bug Maniac Aydon]

Toed - Politoed
Wrath - could be used for Poliwrath
maybe also Poli but it's really non specific so probably not

 

[NB402141]

Etern -> Eternatus currently goes to Xerneas for some reason

 

[longhiep341]

Eleki -> Regieleki
Drago -> Regidrago
Glide -> Grassy Glide
Teapot -> Polteageist (Polteageist and Poltergeist are only 1 letter difference and one typo gives Poltergeist)
Axel -> Triple Axel
Barra -> Barraskewda
Corvi -> Corviknight
Cram -> Cramorant
Rilla -> Rillaboom
Chomper -> Garchomp (I know Chomp already works for Garchomp but since Chomper is a big meme can we get Chomper as an alias for Garchomp for /ds?)

 

[Xceloh]

Khan -> Kangaskhan
Literally named after Genghis Khan after all

 

[Aqua Jet]

Craw -> Crawdaunt
daunt -> Crawdaunt

 

[Karthik]

gastro -> gastrodon

 

[Anna says hi]

here's a dump of these

snowshrew -> sandshrew-alola
snowslash -> sandslash-alola
9tales -> ninetales-alola
malt -> altaria-mega
lycandusk -> lycanroc-dusk
alolawak -> marowak-alola
ghorse -> spectrier

 

[LadyXBeans]

this is one i see quite a bit and was rather surprised it wasnt an alias

quag -> quagsire

 

[Zipzapadam]

Another common nickname i'm surprised isn't one already

zap -> zapdos
zapgalar -> zapdos-galar

 

[coral fan]

on the topic of zapdos-galar, ou players sometimes call it gapdos or gzap, tbh all regional forms should be searchable by region initial + name, eg aninetales, gzap, hvoltorb etc

 

[Dorron]

ok you will laugh at me, but amogus->amoonguss

 

[Mathy]

toursminigames needs a room alias. maybe "tm" or "tminis" or some variation thereof

Done, <<tmg>>

 

[Noglastica]

Dunno if these have been suggested yet
Glowking -> Galar-Slowking
Glowbro -> Galar-Slowbro
Wak -> Marowak
Lax -> Snorlax (I think this is a big one)


Moves:
Boom -> Explosion/Self-Destruct (I do this literally every time)

 

[Deleted User 594026]

Altered for Giratina
Aria for Meloetta
Land for Shaymin
Incarnate for Landorus/Thundorus/Tornadus
Confined for Hoopa

 

[Arcueid]

/clines for clearlines
We have /hlines, /htext, /ctext. This seems a fair enough thing for consistency and being a bit faster while clearing lines.

 

[Stories]

For my NU players:

STOISE
EGG(Y)
LAZZLE
FETCHD or FETCH'D
LAX
GUNFISK
CROAK
TTRUM and TREX
PLUME

 

[Grandmas Cookin]

STOISE

VGC & DOU use this as well but also just “toise” which seems to be more common in my experience.

 

[berry]

tarrows -> thousand arrows

 

[Chloe]

conda -> sandaconda (not linda/fletchinder)
giga -> gigalith
vani -> vanilluxe
luxe -> vanilluxe
jelli -> jellicent
doub -> doublade
slasher -> sandslash
scraf -> scrafty
lycan -> lycanroc
glas -> glastrier
perrs -> perrserker
wishi -> wishiwashi
mesp -> mesprit
weez -> weezing
trev -> trevenant
drud -> druddigon
alolaslash -> sandslash-alola
snowslash -> sandslash-alola

please and thank you

 

[Tamenish]

if we search for a type in teambuilder it should show us the berry that halves its super-effective move!
(it's not an alias per say but it is a word to search and represent the berries instead of their actual name)

 

[Lasen]

"etern" should be an alias for Eternatus, it currently shows Xerneas fsr.

 

[Adeleine]

(it's close to "xern")

but agree
