How to Use

Better Teambuilder works automatically when you visit Pokemon Showdown. Open the teambuilder and the extension will appear as a side room with three tabs:

• Speed Analyzer — See which top-usage Pokemon outspeed or underspeed your selection at different EV/nature configurations. Use the custom speed checker to test specific spreads.
• Type Insight — View a full defensive type chart for your entire team, with weakness and resistance counters per type.
• Damage Calculator — Coming soon.

Requirements

• Google Chrome or any Chromium-based browser (Edge, Brave, etc.)
• An active internet connection (for Smogon usage data)

Troubleshooting

The extension does not appear

Make sure you are on https://play.pokemonshowdown.com and that the extension is enabled in chrome://extensions. Try refreshing the page.

Usage data is not loading

The extension fetches data from Smogon. If the data is not loading, check your internet connection and make sure Smogon is reachable. Some formats may not have usage data available.

Stats seem incorrect

Verify that the correct format is selected in the teambuilder. The extension reads the format directly from the Showdown UI.
