[OOPARTS Memo] The True Resonance of "Romaji"
【GORUBATTO】

"A Pokémon's name is perfected through a trinity: Japanese, English, and 'Romaji'—a unique Japanese incantation. It reflects the prayers and soul the creators poured into every single sound. This resonance, mirrored through the Latin alphabet, is the very source of the sanctuary that captures the world."

"A name. It is the very first incantation that breathes life into an existence."

Etymologies slumbering in the abyss of languages worldwide, and lore passed down through generations. Let us now unravel the radiant truth engraved at their very roots.

"Aha! So that was it!? It comes from 【A gluttonous 『Gulp』 of shadow, a 『Bat』 with a cavernous, hungry mouth.】!"

Behold the Weakness! ■ Triple-Core Attribute Matrix: 【ASHURA Engine】
With over 1,000 Pokémon and 18 distinct types (10 in TCG), the complexity of type match-ups is staggering. From the immunity and multiplier variations in the main series and Pokémon GO to the intricate 'Double' and 'Triple' resistances—not to mention the unique type-shifts in the TCG—mastering the 'Golden Rule of Types' from memory alone is a near-impossible feat.

▶ OPENShow ASHURA Engine Details (Read More)

To provide an intuitive 'answer' in an instant, we developed the 'ASHURA Engine', a multi-dimensional calculation system.

This engine instantly computes the combined resistances of any Pokémon's 'Type 1' and 'Type 2'. As our Phase 1 Prototype, we are now releasing the Defense (Compatibility & Weakness) Analysis feature.

Visualizing 1,000+ species and multi-layered attribute relationships in just 0.1 seconds.

"Mainline, GO, and TCG. Three universes, now united by a single truth."

"Deriving the 'Optimal Answer' for all trainers in 0.1 seconds."

"I simply wanted to make the attributes of the three games easier to see. The trinity of intelligence reached beyond pursuing passion. The absolute nullification of the mainline, the complex multipliers of GO, and the integrated rules of TCG. ASHURA erases all their boundaries in 0.1 seconds. In which world will your beloved Pokémon shine? The answer lies within this matrix."

【Current Features (Defense Phase Matchups)】

In this version, we completely visualize how your selected Pokémon can withstand enemy attacks during the "Defense Phase." At a single glance, you can identify which types deal massive damage and which types can be safely blocked.

Based on Golbat's typing (Poison/Flying), the following two critical stats are automatically calculated with their respective multipliers:

  • ① Weakness (Threats when attacked):
    Which types will trigger your weakness when the opponent attacks? You can instantly cover all the "natural enemy types" that require the utmost caution during battle.
  • ② Resistance (Shields when attacked):
    Which types will significantly reduce the incoming damage when hit by the opponent? You can instantly cover all the "ironclad defense types" to gain a tactical advantage.
