Ads on start-up are HORRENDOUS. A 30-second unskippable video followed by another 5 second ad just to access any content at all. Not to mention the random pop-ups and banner ads that can lead you directly to sketchville with one wrong tap if you're not careful. It used to be tolerable and manageable - you could just wait 5 seconds and close them out as they came up, but now they're simply getting greedy and sold out. Save yourself some time and just use one of the many other Pokémon apps.

We are only using a banner ad at the bottom of the screen and a full-screen ad when the app returns to the foreground. Any other ads are from the website itself, with its own advertising. Thank you!

riddled with ads, just use your browser Edit: I dont think you understand what im saying. Ad blocks can be used on browsers but you give that up on the app, so maybe for better convenience if people really value having a quick in app with ads? But now you not only have ads thats naturally from smogon but also added to it the one from the app.

Smogon website, which is non-profit, needs to bear the costs of maintenance, hosting, etc. We do not recommend using adblocks against small websites that depend on advertising revenue to stay alive. We are here also for free, not affiliated with Smogon community and our work also depends on advertising revenue. Thanks! Take a look at our other apps

This is a great start to fantastic way to view smogon dex data. A few suggestions. 1) If possible add an overlay option, like Facebook messenger, so we can view data on and off without leaving any apps/emulators we are in. 2) maybe consider including factial pokex information as well (like from Bulbapedia) for reference, a bit off color and by no means required but it would be nice. thanks for an awesome app!

Thank you for the report! The app is not official, but we're asking Smogon to add some new infos, like EV Yield. I can see you're using android 9, so you can put almost any window in overlay mode, like a floating window, natively! Search on Google how to enable "floating window".
