## 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).
Closes#3133
not an ideal solution, but the encounter matching API is kinda limited in deferred-invalid vs deferred-notIdeal.
probably need to unify the match logic and generators so they can cache one secondary-check invalid
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
Remove gen3 egg location hashset; only paths that reach it are for hatched eggs or current breed-eggs. Check breed eggs with the singular met location.
Simplify some logic flow
This only matches the weather table with the Pokemon and does not fully
account for whether a location can spawn a particular weather.
Additional minor changes:
- Adds ScriptedNoMarks to Regis and Glimwood Tangle static encounters
- Corrects a few version-specific Pokemon such as Ludicolo/Shiftry
- Removes erroneous encounters such as Milotic in East/West Lake Axewell
- Removes an unused Motostoke Stadium encounter
Nickname AND Trainer Name are verified in that method; we still want to execute it. If it has a fixed nickname, we can skip the wordfilter since it's already been checked.
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
GameStrings: 10% of strings are unique; just mark everything. Stop a little early so we don't process the empty & (trade) string.
LearnsetReader: All empty entries are length==0; malformed should throw an exception (never).
EggMoves: Compute ptr inside the array fetch loop; don't use linq.
EggMoves & string shaves off 80ms of startup time according to profiling; some could be attributed to warm-up but yay more efficient.
Some special encounters don't set the Relearn Moves, so we can't really check the memory-moves unless we somehow late-reject a matching encounter. Not really worth the effort to try and verify cosmetic mismatches; just tag them as Fishy.
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.
Metagross collision with wild beldum
deferral API is kinda crude, hence these janky workarounds. Was originally intended to hold onto close matches when there's no more possible matches to check.
I think a priority-deferral while only retaining a single encounter bad (instead of a list of retries) may work better than the current setup, but that would require more abstraction
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
Slap in friend safari at the end during object construction; saves about 1KB of allocation on startup (lol)
Change internal array types to match object types, similar to other encounter-generation definitions.
Trees:
- Only retain the objects needed after calculation
- Reduce size of TreeCoordinates and remove allocation penalty (now a struct)
No more warnings for Release compilation :D
I think this was a PKHeX issue that went unnoticed; originally, we didn't include the Á and Í chars in the dictionary.
I checked the transporter code:
The app maintains the international & japanese character tables, and depending on the ROM language, it may change a char to the language-specific entry. Refer to Bulbapedia's notes on the char tables for different languages:
https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Character_encoding_in_Generation_II
However, none of these char-changes are able to be reached with a legal char.
Á and Í (only accessible from the Spanish in-game trades) and the german 0xC0 && z <= 0xC6 chars are already in the international table. Every single difference in the VC1/VC2 table is an un-enterable char.
tl;dr -- all possible char codes are transferred fine with the VC2 table without extra language logic. We just keep out any inaccessible char (replaced with space).
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.
from 319 (max HP-1) to 9999 (max saved value).
Causes a little bit of GUI lag when loading 10k items to the combobox; could be a number entry but meh. Lazily allocate the 10k strings; wait until it's requested.
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.
Extract common abstract class for GO transferred encounters
Clamp minlevel instead of met level
Add optional parameter for GO IV randomization
Update go legality binaries with latest
PKHeX.Core now accepts generated pkl binaries from PoGoEncounterTool (PGET).
Refer to pporg's repo. This will be treated like event data; occasionally updated.
