Pokémon Showdown 0.9 has been released!

We have a ton of changes waiting, but here's a few of the more notable ones:

Completely redesigned main menu

The main menu's been redesigned from scratch. Buttons for everything you'd want to do on the left, and a beautiful background by Yilx (you can turn it off in the settings if you really want to, but it's seriously an amazing background).

Faster

It's not really something I can screenshot, but the new PS is faster, especially on tablets. Most people who've used it have commented that it's faster, so the speed increase is noticeable.

As always, you can close the lobby chat for even more speed.

New PM and challenge system

You can now challenge and PM from the same window! And PMs now show up side-by-side, so you can PM with lots of people at the same time.

Switch between PM windows with Tab and Shift+Tab, and close PM windows with Esc.

Small user menus

You don't have to be in the lobby to interact with users anymore. You can now click on any username: in the user list, in chat, in battles, in PMs... and it'll pop up this mini-menu.

Filter "Watch Battles" by format

Teambuilder EV sliders and base stats

The long-requested sliders for EVs are now finally here.

Base stats are now displayed in the teambuilder, too.

Effect and music volume

You can now control volume, and effects and music are controlled separately, so you can turn off music (and listen to your own music) while still hearing cries.

More room

Without the left sidebar, we can fit lobby chat next to battle chat on screens as small as 1280 pixels wide, which includes most laptops that aren't considered netbooks.

PP in teambuilder and !data

I managed to fit PP into the move list and !data.

Move and delete pokemon in teams

You can move and delete pokemon in teams in the teambuilder now.

Much more

There are a lot of small things that are improved. Feel free to look around.
