Installation

This project requires python >= 3.6 and a Pokemon Showdown server.

pip install poke-env

You can use smogon's server to try out your agents against humans, but having a development server is strongly recommended. In particular, this showdown fork is optimized for performance and can be used locally without authentication:

git clone https://github.com/hsahovic/Pokemon-Showdown.git

Development version

You can also install the latest master version with:

git clone https://github.com/hsahovic/poke-env.git

Dependencies and development dependencies can then be installed with:

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

Acknowledgements

This project is a follow-up of a group project from an artifical intelligence class at Ecole Polytechnique.

You can find the original repository here. It is partially inspired by the showdown-battle-bot project. Of course, none of these would have been possible without Pokemon Showdown.

Data

Data files are adapted version of the js data files of Pokemon Showdown.
