"STARTZOOM" is how big a Pokémon's sprite is as soon as it appears from a Poké Ball. It then quickly grows to normal size (by "quickly" I mean it takes a quarter of a second), and the game continues. This number is only used in the "trainer throws new Pokémon into battle" animation, and doesn't mean what you think it means.
I worded it wrongly(I suck at explanations) -_-, I manage to solve my issue though, because I had animated pokemon and they were all too small, once I changed the size, I manage to fix my issue, but something recommend for Pokemon Essentials is to.
But thanks Maruno
Code:
add:
@sprites["pokemon1"].zoom_x=STARTZOOM
@sprites["pokemon1"].zoom_y=STARTZOOM
after:
@sprites["pokemon1"].x=-192 # ends at 144*2But thanks Maruno

That makes wild Pokémon appear tiny, and wouldn't work anyway because STARTZOOM isn't defined in that def (pbStartBattle).
I can see how you would use it (along with a bunch of other code) to make the foe Pokémon half-size, like BW does. Essentials battles don't work like that, though.
