swsh-arduino's Issues

AutoDA: Detect lives remaining.

Part of: #9

Add feedback for Dex Rec.

The current Dex Rec program requires you to watch it. Add an option to select what Pokemon you're looking for and have the program automatically stop when it finds it.

This will require either:

• Add pattern matching framework.
• Integrate Tesseract OCR.

If the 2nd option, more work will be needed to build the error-tolerant Pokemon name reader.

Auto box ordering

This program could go trough some boxes and read pokemon name + ability (or sprite). Then it would order them based on dex number or other (using a bubble like sort). it could use either pokemon home or sword/shield

Make the overworld bot work in Glimwood Tangle.

The overworld bot doesn't work in Glimwood Tangle because:

1. There are no overworld mons to pull you back into the grass area should you wander away from it.
2. The dark areas will trick the program into thinking a battle started when it doesn't.

Detecting a start of battle will reset the watchdog timer for game reset. So if the game gets into a dark corner, it will go into an infinite loop of false battle detections and never reset to recover.

Regi catcher and stats reset.

Investigate non-shiny hunts.

Which of these are possible and can we do them?

• Poipole and Cosmog: Stat hunting
• Keldeo: Stat and mark hunting
• Galar Birds: Stat and mark hunting
• Calyrex: Stat hunting
• Regis: Stat hunting

Automate curry.

This includes camp encounter shiny hunting.

babs is currently working on the native implementation.

AutoDA: Add item detection.

Part of: #9

Port AutoMaxLair's AI to serial AutoDA.

Part of: #9

Battle Tower program.

This was possible without feedback prior to the DLCs. Feedback should make it more feasible.

Either way, this is not going to be a simple program.

Add stats for day skippers.

Make the day skippers display the skip count like in the other programs with stats.

AutoDA: Detect terrain.

Part of: #9

Moltres catcher and stats reset.

pif's implementation of Anubis' Moltres reset program.

Make Berry Tree shiny hunt not mess up the date.

Currently the autonomous berry tree program uses the date-spam farmer date-skip routine which completely messes up the date. This by itself isn't great since it loses weather and time control.

Normally when a shiny is found, the program automatically fixes the date. But this isn't the case when auto-catch is enabled. Thus auto-caught Pokemon will have messed up catch dates.

Switch the berry tree program to use the Dex-rec date-skip routine. However, this needs to be done when the dialogs are gone or the (neutral) date-skip won't cause the berries to respawn.

Smart Den Roller

Specify what you want and the program will stop when it finds it.

Autonomous Egg Hatching

Add an autonomous egg program that requires minimal user intervention:

• Start with one box of eggs.
• Program looks for a complete column to hatch.
• If there are no complete columns, run egg fetching loop until there are.
• If the box is full, run egg hatching loop until it isn't.
• Otherwise, run egg-combined loop.
• Release non-shinies on the fly.
• Deposit shinies in the box before the eggs.
• Egg hatching goes until entire party is hatched. (tolerance to late hatching eggs)
• If an egg hatches unexpectedly early, fly back to daycare and travel to spin location. (tolerance to early hatching eggs)
• Shinies can be detected both by animation and by the shiny-symbol when you're about to release.
• Keep track of stats. See if shiny detection is reliable to determine shiny type from hatch animation.
• Program can run uninterrupted until the box for shinies fills up.

AutoDA: Detect turns to Dmax.

Part of: #9

Port AutoMaxLair to serial programs.

This is the big one. Reimplement AutoMaxLair in the serial programs.

If possible include the following enhancements:

• Multi-Switch support. (collaborative multiplayer Auto-DA)
• Make it work with animations enabled. (required for multiplayer)
• Improve situational awareness and fault-tolerance.

This requires a lot of stuff which don't exist in the framework yet. Just for starters:

• Add pattern matching framework.
• Integrate Tesseract OCR.

Autocatching for certain encounter bots.

Add start delay to WattFarmer.

The WattFarmer can kill the VS-glitch if the user's Switch is slow to re-establish internet or local connection after exiting the grip menu.

Add a delay between leaving the grip menu and going to the first day skip.

Den Roller Sprite fails for some people.

Someone is reporting that it doesn't work at all for them.

Calyrex catcher and stats reset.

pif's Calyrex program that throws balls and checks for desired stats if caught.

Add autonomous auto catcher

Use basic_catcher but makes sure to have stats, reset when needed, retrigger the fight, etc
