Pokemon Champions Dex

Pokémon Champions Dex

Query the bundled Pokémon Champions battle dex before making factual claims about a Pokémon, form, move, ability, item, nature, or learnset. This skill answers "what exists and what can it learn?"; metagame popularity belongs to $pokemon-champions-meta, and damage arithmetic belongs to $ncp-damage-calculator.

Workflow

1. Use resolve to normalize free-form Chinese, English, or Japanese names. It is batch, typo-tolerant by default, understands multilingual Mega affixes, X/Y/Z qualifiers (full-width letters included) and spoken nicknames such as 地龙/x喷/y喷, and preserves 1:1 input order.
2. Use the entity commands or batch when full records are needed; they use the same exact → Mega composition → fuzzy order as resolve. --strict disables fuzzy guessing while retaining deterministic Mega composition and ambiguity refusal.
3. Use find / find-move for reverse search; use --where for OR, NOT, or nested conditions.
4. Prefer --format json for downstream processing. Use --lang zh|ja|en only for human-readable Markdown output.

Commands

Normalize names first when the input is free-form:

bashCopy code
python scripts/champdex.py resolve Mega耿鬼 超级雪妖女 牛蛙君 咆哮虎
python scripts/champdex.py resolve 灭亡之歌 地震 保护 --kind move
python scripts/champdex.py resolve 地面 フェアリー Fire --kind type --format json

Query one or many full records:

bashCopy code
python scripts/champdex.py pokemon 姆克鹰 Mega-Staraptor 巨金怪
python scripts/champdex.py move 近身战 Close-Combat
python scripts/champdex.py ability 唱反调 Contrary
python scripts/champdex.py item 耿鬼进化石 Gengarite
python scripts/champdex.py nature 固执 Adamant
python scripts/champdex.py batch pokemon 姆克鹰 巨金怪 弃世猴 洗衣机

Reverse-search Pokémon or moves:

bashCopy code
python scripts/champdex.py find move 近身战 type 飞行
python scripts/champdex.py find type 水 type 地面 stat spe>=70
python scripts/champdex.py find-move type Fire category Special power ">=90"
python scripts/champdex.py find --where '{"and":[{"type":"Dragon"},{"not":{"mega":true}}]}'

Names accept Chinese, English, and Japanese aliases. Exact aliases win; typo fallback is conservative, reports its correction, and refuses ambiguous ties. Use --strict when validation requires exact-only resolution. find and reverse are always exact. The full positional and boolean grammars are exposed by the CLI schema.

Contract And Output

Treat the executable schema as the authority for commands, fields, canonical stat keys, and errors:

bashCopy code
python scripts/champdex.py schema
python scripts/champdex.py names --format json

Canonical JSON is language-independent: English name is the cross-skill join key; stat keys and type values remain canonical English. Human-readable output language precedence is --lang, then POKEMON_CHAMPIONS_LANG, then en.

names exports the official {kind,name,name_zh,name_ja} vocabulary for presentation and bounded text checks. It includes Pokémon, moves, abilities, items and natures, without aliases or combat data.

Read references/schema.md only when database fields, name-resolution behavior, or reverse-query semantics are relevant. It supplements the executable schema rather than replacing it.

Boundaries

• The bundled SQLite database and JSON mirror are read-only; the skill performs no network access.
• Report dex facts and legality-relevant learnset facts, not popularity or strategic role labels.
• A valid dex lookup is not a metagame recommendation. Use the sibling skills for usage and damage.
