NOitems vs STOPitems question

[Halialeuco]

Hello!

Im back after a long time as i saw the game is now completed (congrats to the devs btw!), and apparently you can now insert different password in the beggining of the game.

 

Im interested in the ones that ban items during battles but im curious about the difference between the two.

 

Will noitems restrain both the player and the opponent from using only HEALING items or just the player?

In that case is the Stopitems password requiered for the opponent not to use HEALING items? Or does this one involve HELD items? I wouldnt want to ban those.

 

Sorry if this is not the right place to post this, im kinda rusty.

 

Thanks

As far as i am understanding these passwords, noitems only prevents you, not the AI, from using items from your bag. And stopitems does the same for the AI, while you can still use items if you wanted. If you applied both passwords, neither you or the AI could use items from the bag.

However, both passwords won't stop any Pokémon from using the items they are holding. Held berries, a focus sash, a life orb, mega stones, z-stones, any item that can be used by Pokémon will still trigger if the required circumstances for activation are given.
