Great problem, Dyuman! This required quite some thought.
Banning "if" outright is a bit too much BTW. I understand you want to discourage lookup solutions, but this messed with my legitimate solution and required me to get creative.
Glad to know you liked it!
I can get around the test suite with some changes/updates, keeping in mind that I created this problem 3 years ago.
What do you suggest a good alternative would be?
Maybe I could ban str2num() instead, allowing if?
It depends on why you banned "if" in the first place, but if it is indeed look-up solutions, maybe "elseif" would catch most (not all, but it's not Pokémon, you can't catch 'em all anyway).
It was indeed to ban look-up/hard coded solutions. I have updated the test suite to check for 'elseif' and 'str2num' in place of 'if'.
I have re-scored your solutions, Christian.
As per the rest of the pokemons, well leave those to me ;)
Thanks, Dyuman!
