Jul 1, 2025July 2025: Delivered a focused set of features and fixes for rh-hideout/pokeemerald-expansion, improving battle reliability and testing efficiency. Key outcomes include a post-move battle effects overhaul (refactoring Moveend, new states for Symbiosis and Red Card, consolidated post-move handling), an Instant Win option in the battle debug menu for rapid testing, a recoil damage calculation fix with added berry-consumption tests, and repository hygiene cleanup removing obsolete build artifacts. These changes reduce edge-case bugs, accelerate QA cycles, and demonstrate strong state-machine design, test coverage, and code cleanup practices.

Jun 1, 2025June 2025 (rh-hideout/pokeemerald-expansion): Focused on stabilizing CI/test results rather than delivering new features. No new features delivered this month. Major bugs fixed: AI Test Stability Improvement by disabling flaky AI battle test ai_smart_tera.c: AI_FLAG_SMART_TERA; marked KNOWN_FAILING to avoid unreliable random passes after KO and stabilize CI/test outcomes without removing the test. Commit 3a42cd84af32197c0b4200c4845db8799478db6c ("comment test"). Overall impact: improved CI reliability, reduced flaky test noise, enabling faster iteration and more trustworthy release readiness. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Git-based change management, test flakiness analysis, AI battle test understanding, CI stabilization, test status governance (KNOWN_FAILING).
