Z-Power for v21.1
Fully implements Z-Move & Ultra Burst mechanics from Gen 7 into Essentials!
Fully implements Z-Move & Ultra Burst mechanics from Gen 7 into Essentials!
Overview
This plugin adds Z-Moves introduced in Pokemon Sun & Moon to your game, as well as the Ultra Burst mechanic from Pokemon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon. Both mechanics have been replicated here, along with all of the Z-Crystals for each Z-Move, and the ability to power up status moves with Z-Powered effects. Ultra Burst has been generalizes so that it's possible to set up Ultra forms for other species beyond Necrozma. This plugin also fully utilizes the Deluxe Battle Kit's mid-battle scripting, allowing you to set up scripted scenarios related to Z-Moves and Ultra Burst.
-DOWNLOAD LINK-
Installation
- First, please install the latest version of the (broken link removed). This plugin functions as an add-on to that kit.
- Next, download this plugin using the link provided and extract its contents to your root Essentials folder so that the
Audio
,Graphics
,PBS
andPlugins
folders in the download merge with their equivalent folders in your project. - Note: If you are not using the (broken link removed) plugin, you can delete the
Bag Screen with Party
folder found inGraphics/UI
. This is only provided for compatibility with that plugin, and serves no purpose otherwise. - Start your game in debug mode and make sure you recompile by holding down the CTRL key while the game is booting up. If the console says "Game data was not compiled", then you didn't hold down the key long enough, or don't have the game window in focus.
- IMPORTANT: This plugin will adds graphics for a new bag slot, which this plugin assumes will be bag slot 9. If you already have a ninth bag slot, be careful not to replace your existing graphics while installing this plugin.
- IMPORTANT: This plugin adds all eight of the capped Pikachu forms so that they may be present to use the exclusive Z-Move 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt. These forms are set to use form numbers 8-15 for Pikachu by default. If you already have these forms in your game, or use these form numbers for other things, then edit or remove the PBS file
pokemon_forms_pikachu_caps.txt
that is added by this plugin.
