Pokemonlib for python
WARNING:
I Am not and don't claim to be affiliated with Pokemon or the Pokemon Company or Nintendo. I do not own and don't claim to own Pokemon, the battle logic of the algorithm, the sprites, the idea and the code of any official pokemon game. But I do own The code that is written by myself and the way it was implemented.
This is a library containing a WIP (Work In Progress) implementation of the pokemon battle algorithm and other features of the pokemon games.
Present features:
- Automatically get base pokemon data from the PokeApi
WIP features
I mean what I'm actively working on (Checked if ready for release soon and currently in test)
- Pokemon Class
- Inventory/Player class
- Pokemon attacks
- Automatically get other pokemon data like sprites from the PokeApi
- Basic Battle UI (Very slow progress)
- Automatic game build
Planned Features:
(Checked means I'm starting to develop it as soon as I complete a WIP feature)
- Plugin System that permits to create your own pokemons/attacks/items
- Items (Needs Inventory first)
- Battle Logic (A class that handles the whole battle but without any UI)
- Overworld UI
- Trainers battle
- Possibility to catch pokemons
- Interaction system in Overworld
And possibly more ;-) you can always make a feature request in the issues tab.
Python Compatibility
For now only python 3 is supported and python 2 support is not planned. Anyways, if you're still using python 2, you should upgrade!
Helping or contributing to the project
I have no problem with people helping me. If someone makes many good pull request I will consider to add them as contributors of this repo. If someone contributes to the project by more than a few lines of code or do something really useful (like some english teacher who fixes all the typos) I will add them to a credit section and a file credits.txt.
What this project is meant to become
This project is for now pieces of code on which you can use to make a simple pokemon game. I want it to become a piece of software that you extend with your own script(s) and plugins, a bit like renpy. If I manage to finish all the core and Engine part maybe a visual editor will be made.
