[Scripting Question] Check Level and Species in an Event for a Reward?

[Blackhammer99]

Long story short, I am looking to make an event that offers a reward for a trainer who has leveled a Smeargle to level 100.

I have a way to see if the trainer has the species at all, but am unaware of a way to check the level of this species, but admittedly I am a novice when it comes to this sort of thing.

Does anyone know of a solution I can implement?

There are 2 things you can do:

1. Inside the conditional branch which you use to check for Smeargle, you use a for loop to check if the Smeargle is Lv100
   

   for i in $Trainer.party.length
   if isConst?($Trainer.party[i].species,PBSpecies,:SMEARGLE) && $Trainer.party[i].level==100
   Kernel.pbRecieveItem(:PRIZE)
   end
   end

2. You can use pbChoosePokemon and use the index you get from that and check in a Conditional Branch
   

   isConst?($Trainer.party[pbGet(5)].species,PBSpecies,:SMEARGLE) && $Trainer.party[pbGet(5)].level==100

   And then do whatever

I appreciate the reply, but I am having trouble following your suggestion!
The first suggestion, I can't follow at all. I am unsure what a "for loop" is and wouldn't know where to begin.

The second suggestion, I THOUGHT I understood, but I tried to implement it and it never returns True on the conditional, even when I select a level 100 Smeargle.

Either way I appreciate your help, and if you could break things down at a more basic level, it would be even more appreciated!
Sorry for my inexperience :/

i think there's a ".level" missing, like that its comparing the entire variable holding the pokemon at whatever index variable 5 is holding to 100

Where abouts? That makes sense, but I tried adding it where I expected and I just get errors.

Add a new Script Command in your event with the code I mentioned. What it does is it checks every single Pokemon in your party, and if it finds that there is a Smeargle in your party, and its level 100 then it executes the pbRecieveItem command. You can replace the pbRecieveItem with whatever you want.

The second suggestion, I THOUGHT I understood, but I tried to implement it and it never returns True on the conditional, even when I select a level 100 Smeargle.

I assume you know how to use pbChoosePokemon. If you don't then basically it takes 1 arguement, which is a game variable that store what Pokemon you chose. Eg: pbChoosePokemon (5) will store what Pokemon you chose in variable no. 5 of your game.

i think there's a ".level" missing, like that its comparing the entire variable holding the pokemon at whatever index variable 5 is holding to 100

Oh I didn't catch that lol. I'll fix it right now.

Blackhammer, try the new code.

I got it! Thanks so much for the help.
Second option worked like a charm and I was able to do exactly what I wanted to thanks to both of your help!
