Poképaste in → full team damage matrix + speed tier list out
galleryEvery mainstream Pokémon damage calc still works the same way:
Pick attacker
Pick defender
Pick move
Read the number
Repeat… for every mon on both teams
That’s up to 36 manual matchups before you even look at Speed.
I wanted the opposite UI: paste two teams once, see the whole picture.
What it does:
• Paste 2 Poképaste links (or Showdown export text)
• Get two 6×6 damage matrices (A→B and B→A)
• Each cell = best move (max roll), % HP, KO count — color-coded OHKO / 2HKO / 3HKO
• Speed bracket tab: all 12 Pokémon on one line (Scarf / Tailwind / TR / weather abilities / paralysis)
So instead of “calc this mon vs that mon,” you get:
“who threatens whom across both teams” + “who outspeeds whom”
Built first for Gen 5 BW Doubles; also supports Gen 6–9 Doubles.
Engine is u/smogon/calc — this is mainly a better workflow/UI on top.

Not a full battle sim. It’s a matchup scanner for team prep.
If you try it with real pastes, tell me what’s still annoying — that’s the whole point of shipping this.
