HGSS Menu? Like a touch screen? Haha! You're funny.
Good luck with that. I searched EVERYWHERE for that script. How did that end up? With nothing.
And most HG/SS Tiles are 3d, so you can't use them in rpgxp and maybe game maker.
Now, I'll post my question: How can I activate/create a regional Pokedex in my game. I know its programmed in Pokemon Essentials; I just don't know how to make the pokedex/activate it.
Plan it through first. The National Dex is the entirety of pokemon.txt (in that order), and the Regional Dex (I'll just call it Johto) is a shorter list of just some pokémon, probably in a different order than they are in the National Dex.
In
pokemon.txt, create the line
RegionalNumbers for each pokémon you're putting in Johto. I'm only using Johto here, so you only need one number (the Johto index number) in this line, but you can expand on this easily enough if you want more Regional Dexes (see the Notes and the last paragraph in this post).
In
PokemonPokedex, there is the def
pbGetPokedexRegion, which you can modify however you want in order to display the different Regional Dexes you have. If you choose to display a Regional Dex that doesn't have anything in it, the National Dex will be displayed instead (and this def is how you choose which Regional Dex to display). Set it to return "
0" if
global switch XX is
OFF (i.e. at the start of the game, which is
Johto). You'll "unlock" the National Dex later on in the game by flipping global switch XX
ON, in which case this def won't return anything and the
National Dex will be displayed instead.
That should be it. You can design some fancy way of switching between the Johto and National Dex somewhere else if you want (e.g. an option screen which does nothing more than flip global switch XX ON/OFF).
For multiple Regional Dexes, you're better off using a
global variable instead of a switch, and make the def simply return the value of that variable. To alternate between them, as above, have a fancy option screen that simply sets the value of that global variable (set it to, say, "42" or "-1" to look at the National Dex).
