## Issue
We want to discard-but-remember any slots that aren't a perfect fit, on the off chance that a better one exists later in the search space. If there's no better match, then we gotta go with what we got.
## Example:
Wurmple exists in area `X`, and also has a more rare slot for Silcoon, with the same level for both slots.
* We have a Silcoon that we've leveled up a few times.
Was our Silcoon originally a Wurmple, or was it caught as a Silcoon?
* To be sure, we have to check the EC/PID if the Wurmple wouldn't evolve into Cascoon instead.
* We don't want to wholly reject that Wurmple slot, as maybe the Met Level isn't within Silcoon's slot range.

Existing implementation would store "deferred" matches in a list; we only need to keep 1 of these matches around (less allocation!). We also want to differentiate between a "good" deferral and a "bad" deferral; I don't think this is necessary but it's currently used by Mystery Gift matching (implemented for the Eeveelution mystery gifts which matter for evolution moves).
The existing logic didn't use inheritance, and instead had static methods being reused across generations. Quite kludgy. Also, the existing logic was a pain to modify the master encounter yield methods, as one generation's quirks had to not impact all other generations that used the method.
---
The new implementation splits out the encounter yielding methods to be separate for each generation / subset. Now, things don't have to check `WasLink` for Gen7 origin, because Pokémon Link wasn't a thing in Gen7.
---
## Future
Maybe refactoring yielders into "GameCores" that expose yielding behaviors / properties, rather than the static logic. As more generations and side-gamegroups get added (thanks LGPE/GO/GameCube), all this switch stuff gets annoying to maintain instead of just overriding/inheritance.
## Conclusion
This shouldn't impact any legality results negatively; if you notice any regressions, report them! This should reduce false flags where we didn't defer-discard an encounter when we should have (wild area mons being confused with raids).
See the EncounterSlotDumper with the memoization logic & json tree listing.
Simplifies things a lot, and improves checking speed. Unreachable trees are now treated the same as no-trees maps.
ez 1.5KB reduction in file size :P
clean:
if (!logical) return;
Existing logic had methods named to return true if fail, now method checks for passing, thus the logic now follows the above pattern.
Simplify some method signatures, reduce checks for MoveEgg.GetEggMoves
ran legality checks for 100,000 pkm, no more exceptions (Internal Error) -- added a "CanGameGenerateEggs" which filters out unused gameIDs
AltForm & Form & Forme => Form
GenNumber & Generation => Generation
Extract out SpeciesForm interface, and re-add IGeneration
For those using PKHeX as a dependency, this should be a pretty straightforward manual replacement... GenNumber and AltForm should be quick find-replace`s.
Transporter remaps certain locale specific chars depending on the source ROM's version.
Since VC can trade between languages, there are 2 Spanish in-game trades that have glyphs subject to remapping, if it's transferred from a French game.
If the spanish trade is transferred from a french game, it must match the mutated string.
ty @Lusamine & helpers :D
Move form-info logic from FormConverter to AltFormInfo; now FormConverter is entirely form=>string[]
Add a bunch of xmldoc
Make pogo no-end-date cmp agaisnt UTCnow rather than local now.
Event Move special encounters are yielded after static encounters by the generator, so this iterator-picker will never behave as originally intended.
Since the encounter generator works fine for these events in its current form, we can just remove it. If we need to prefer GB era events before static, then we'd reinstate the priority and move the GenerateGBEvents before the static yielder.
bla bla bla this is just a cleanup from old preference code where we wanted to recognize the encounter as an event/trade as they're more recognizable. We just want to track the progress of the iterator so that g1/g2 follow a merged yielding order
Adds Nickname checks, thanks @ShadowMario3 for grabbing these into separate text files from Bulbapedia.
I reordered all the encounters to match Bulbapedia; each level is denoted if different if it can be sourced from RBY.
took me less than an hour to do these changes, and i can flag bad form movesets no problemo
Expect tightening of restrictions (ball, level, shininess) later
if someone wants to curate met date restrictions, go ahead!
Sure it's nice to cache a valid array, but the amount of logic was small enough that it can be done with 10 lines of code rather than at the end of each verification method.
Reduces parameter passing & removes 1 field from the info object, as relearn suggestions are only done rarely after legality checking.
Allows for a simpler api surface (pkm, encounter) rather than a bigger object reference
Handle yielding in the moveset generator as well
Future commits will trim down unused values/abstractions; probably can get all the stadium stuff handled innately
Introducing a new PKM format: SK2
Split ICaughtData2 off of PK2 so it can be shared with SK2 when type-checks occur
Add conversion for PK2<->SK2
Split the split-buffer handling for GBPKM to GBPKML (what a name), so that I can reuse shared accessor logic for SK2.
EncounterTrade: don't init Location to -1; keep as default 0 and use that as the pivot for default met location. Move Fateful property to the sub-type that uses it (EncounterTrade4, for Ranch).
Move some EncounterStatic->PKM logic that is per-type to the associated type overloaded methods. Rearrange order of properties to be more consistent with interfaces
Gen3: Initialize some classes without using post-constructor setters. The `init` setter functionality coming in c#9 won't be usable as the net46 runtime/netstandard2 doesn't support it on current previews. Do it this way so we can explicity initialize some required properties rather than apply version on a second iteration.
