Ruleset Structure

The JSON file structure for each channel begins with ruletypes. The ruletypes include, pokemon, moves, abilities and items. Each ruletype can have multiple filters and modes.

Example: 333749099897683980.json

"1257054038332276860": {
    "description": "Channel 1",
    "pokemon": {
        ...filters
        "legal":{
            ...more filters
        }
    },
    ...more ruletypes
    },
"1209782242814070784": {
    "description": "Channel 2",
    "pokemon": {
        ...filters
        "legal":{
            ...more filters
        }
    },
    ...more ruletypes
    },
}

Filters

Both ruletypes and modes can have filters. Filter values are case sensitive and require specific delimiters. Mode filters are optional and can be left unchanged.

TIP

Some Pokémon species have special characters in their names. The /info command can be used to get the exact species name of the Pokémon.

Filter Schema

• Values in types, species and abilities use title case and each word is separated by a space.

  Example: Ghost, Type: Null, Keen Eye

• Values in allowedRarities, names and items are in lower case and hyphenated.

  Example: legendary, destiny-bond, kings-rock

Modes

There are two available modes, legal and illegal. Only one mode can be used per ruletype. The legal mode is enforced if both are populated.

Mode Exceptions

• When adding a filter for pokemon->legal->types, Pokémon that include one of the given types are considered legal. To disable a combination of Pokémon types, they can be added to pokemon->illegal->types.

Example:

"1257054038332276860": {
 "pokemon": {
        "legal":{
            "types": ["Grass"]
        },
        // Pokémon with types Grass + any other type are legal
        // But Grass + Poison are illegal
        "illegal":{
            "types": ["Poison"]
        }
    }
},

• The species filter for pokemon ruletype always takes priority. If this filter is populated in either mode, types check is ignored.
