I figured out how to add moves (eg. Move, Flareon, Flare Blitz) but that's about it. If you haven't figured it out by now, I'm fixing Flareon and it's too damn slow. Garchomp and Skymin will also enjoy a nice base speed drop down to 100 and 120, respectively.

Congrats to the winners of the 2023 Smog Awards!
On your own server is it possible to edit base stats and remove moves?

You can modify the database with a "patch file", which is a file containing a bunch of entries of a particular syntactic form, and then you can specify a particular patch file in server.properties.
An example entry in the patch file would be this:
This gives Garchomp the Own Temp ability and the move Metronome; it takes away the move Frustration; and it sets his base speed to 100.
Whitespace is not significant in the format. A semi-colon terminates each entry.
There is no documentation on the format unfortunately but you can look at the source of the parser here for more details.

Garchomp: a+Own Tempo, Metronome, -Frustration, spd: 100;Whitespace is not significant in the format. A semi-colon terminates each entry.

Thanks muchly, that is actually much simpler than I was expecting.
Oh, it appears that this server is not for Platinum. Is there any way to fix that or can custom servers be D/P only?
The dpmovesets.db file contains Platinum moves.
I'm not too concerned with moves as I now know how to change those, but it's the missing Griseous Orb (ok, so no loss there) and Shaymin-s and Rotom-a (these are a problem) that concern me.
