SPAMS 5.0 is out now! - Reworked the fundamentals of the program (should fix most errors and make things overall faster) - Hid the 'Matchup Overview' tab, while I work on a way to make that information more accurate and relevant - As always thank you for using SPAMS Link below

SPAMS 4.1 is out now! (no one asked for this, but my brain decided to function for once) - Fixes major issues with the analysis tab - Adds in missing sprites - Reworked the way replays are added! Resulting in a much cleaner interface and more space for notes Link Below:

Wow a cool trend! Enjoyed a lot of different teams during SV, so choosing 4 is tough, but I think these are the ones! - Vancouver '23 (2nd) - Gouging Fire (Gouging Fire) - EUIC/Vancouver '25 (Top 128/Top 16) - Baltimore '24 Blaziken (Top 64)

This is a really fun idea! Below are my 4 favourite teams I have played this gen! Really loved piloting these and they're my favourites for different reasons.

I genuinely cannot believe what I am about to say and my hands are shaking as I type this. The prize pool of the Grand Champions Festival is now $10000. I’ll be making a follow up post revealing some of the partners making this all possible in the next day or so.

I may be dating myself with this one, but the Orlando format is giving “Late July” vibes right now!

Bubbled at 9th place at both league cups this weekend! When I said I wanted to stop getting 2nd, this is not what I meant!

@Wiltank I can definitely see the complaint especially for those that are not as fully invested in the circuit/game, but removing them just does not seem like the move to me, plenty of ways to simplify the ‘complicated’ procedure for accessibility

@SableyeVGC I figured out IVs by reading a Serebii article at 11 years old. I never understood these people saying a number between 0-31 has some disastrous affect on the ability to get into what is already a complex game

My take on potentially losing IVs: If they were going to be re working the EV system anyways, why not just find a way to merge them together. I am all for ease of access, but losing the creativity here just feels like a lazy rework as opposed to actually addressing an issue
The X-3 Grim Reaper@MoxieBoosted

Do we lose some niche interactions without IVs? Yeah. But ultimately I think the changing of this mechanic makes the game more accessible and will ultimately be better for the health of competition. Cluttered speed tiers aside.

@Jake_VGC I think they had multiple options to make them easy to understand, but it just feels like they didn’t care enough to try. As others have mentioned a “fine tuning slider”, some sort of negative ev option, etc. Accessibility is important, but there were better ways imo

@SableyeVGC Yeah I definitely enjoy and benefit from them. I just see this as a continuation of the simplification of the least impactful parts of the game in order to allow new players to jump in without taking a course on the game. After removing Hidden Power this seems like the next step.

@rowanwhall Yeh they had a ton of options, like this or even just adding a “fine tuning” slider of some sort to make it simple to understand, but I guess they didn’t wanna do any of that

@SableyeVGC They could easily add negative EVs that don’t give you any extra to spend

@mentalsyndrome Yeh it really isn’t, although I can see where the confusions arises, especially at the beginning. I do believe they needed to be more accessible up front, but getting rid of them was a choice…

@SableyeVGC I also don’t think it’s as difficult of a mechanic as some people are making it seem? Yes any value outside 0 and 31 has been harder to obtain but it’s no more difficult to understand than EVs. It just takes a little extra work (thanks power items+ditto) to get the value you want

@Jake_VGC 0 or 31 99% of the time sounds incorrect. We have multiple interactions where modifying IVs matters in this format alone (never mind all time) incin speed/amoonguss speed for ursaluna, to name a few. It can be confusing, but they could have simplified without removing them imo

@SableyeVGC Losing creativity is justifiable if the goal is increasing accessibility. Having multiple stat systems and natures is a lot for newcomers only to have IVs be 0 or 31 99% of the time. We all know the look on a friend or family members face when they check out hearing about stats.

@mentalsyndrome Yeh removing them just feels wrong to me, merging them definitely doesn’t work mathematically, but surely there had to be some sort of functional middle ground

@SableyeVGC The only way to rework IVs and maintain how they function now (imo) would be have them as a 0-16 slider that’s separate from the new EV system. The two can’t be combined without changing how stats function altogether. Agree that removing them is not the correct choice.
