Ok, here's my fix to make it work just add or edit the links in red! All of this is in PSystem_Utilities The only problem with this fix is that Shadow Pokemon's Icons and sprites won't load thats the only fix everything else from Delta/Alolan icons and so on will load.

1) Search for # Loads Pokémon/item/trainer graphics

After than Search for def pbLoadPokemonBitmapSpecies(pokemon, species, back=false)

then replace it with this pastebin all the way to def pbPokemonFootprintFile(species) BUT DONT REPLACE THE FOOTPRINT Script just everything from the pbLoadPokemonBitmapSpecies and everything between those 2. Dont forget to copy raw of the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/Q4DPb57W

So I'm looking at the code for the EBS and even of vanilla Essentials v16.2 And I'm not seeing either of them mention anything about sorting the Pokemon sprites into separate folders based on shininess and gender. That might be something you yourself added.

The issue I noticed, which does coincide with the error message originally posted (4 arguments in a function designed to take in at most 3), is that the EBS has a way to handle the scale of sprites whereas default Essentials doesn't.

Somehow, though (don't ask me how), you reminded me that I need to add compatibility for the Following Pokemon script.

Oh EBS I'm using BW Essentials edited by Klien xD. That's a fix for people who use BW essentials. version 3.1.1

That's good to know. That's the only thing that makes this incompatible with BW Essentials?

I'll have to figure out how to detect if someone is using BW essentials. Detecting the EBS is as simple as checking if the class DynamicPokemonSprite exists, according to other things Luka's made.

Which leads to my next point: the first post now contains code that makes it compatible with the EBS and Following Pokemon.

It works now I re-added you script to my game and as well as the EliteBattle_BitmapWrappers but got another issue It won't load the right image like it would still be the regular pokemon instead of the alolan pokemon when I look at it in battle or Party. but the Icon loads perfectly fine. and the type change and moves work too.

Fixed it again by changing the directory from "Graphics/Battlers/%03d%s%s%s%s%s%s" to "Graphics/Battlers#{folder}%03d%s%s%s%s%s%s" for bw essentials

This script allows players to make Delta Pokemon (as fans have called them for a while) or Alolan Forms (as they are now officially known) without making them unique species or numbered forms.

To use, put this code in a script section above Main, but below PSystem_Utilities. If using the EBS and/or Following Pokemon, place it below those scripts but above Main. If using KleinStudio's BW Essentials kit, paste it in a script section directly above Main.

Code: 
#########################################################################
# Delta Pokemon/Alolan Form code
# This is compatible with Essentials v16.2
# Also compatible with Luka's Elite Battle System (EBS),
#     Klien's BW Essentials kit,
#     and mej's Following Pokemon script
# Note that this code adds the Alolan forms as code within the game
# It does not automatically create the Alolan forms as possible
#     encounters.
# You as the game developer need to decide how you want players to
#     encounter the Alolan Pokemon.
#########################################################################
# To use
# 1.) place in a new script section below "PSystem_Utilities" but
#     above "Main"
#  - if using the EBS or Following Pokemon scripts, place below those
#      scripts as well as "PSystem_Utilities"
#  - if using the BW Essentials kit, paste directly above "Main"
# 2.) Decide how you want the player to encounter Delta/Alolan Pokemon
#  - see the bottom of this script for an example that makes Alolan
#      Exeggutor appear on a certain map

# EXAMPLE ENCOUNTER MODIFIER

# Events.onWildPokemonCreate+=proc {|sender,e|

#      pokemon.deltaflag=true
#    end
# }

In order to make a sprite for an Alolan Pokemon, name the sprite "###d.png", where the ### is replaced with the National Pokedex number of the species. For example, Alolan Ninetails's sprite would be named "038d.png". This can be combined with the existing modifiers - "###sd.png" for a Shiny Alolan Pokemon, "###db.png" for the backsprite of an Alolan Pokemon, "##fd.png" for a female Alolan Pokemon, "###d_1.png" for the (numbered) alternate form of an Alolan Pokemon, etc. (In order to do the backsprite for a female Shiny Alolan Pokemon in a numbered alternate form, the proper syntax is "###fsdb_1.png")

The movesets listed here are temporary movesets crated by changing old STAB to new STAB. They are by no means the final movesets. Otherwise, this is everything we know about Alola Forms.

Okay, it looks like both those errors are being caused by "ghost Pokemon". I do remember having to edit my version of the Gen V title screen to allow for Delta Pokemon.

Looking at the title screen resource that exists now, I'm wondering if it has to do with the spoofForm function. Otherwise, any possible errors are beyond me.



EDIT: Okay, I've got a possible fix for the error with the Title Screen. Unfortunately, the problem having to do with the Starter Selection thing seems to be something that can only be fixed on their end - by generating the Pokemon before the sprites and then rendering the Pokemon's appearance, rather than searching for the sprite directly.

Just so you know, Delta Species weren't invented by the fans. They were introduced in the TCG. I am SICK and TIRED of this misconception.

Otherwise, nice work. Just don't get too ahead of yourself in implementing the official Alolan Forms, we already know that at least Sandslash and Sandshrew have different stats and we don't fully know their movepools.

When did I say that Deltas were invented by the fans? I said that we've been calling them Deltas, but now they're officially called Alolan Forms.

I'm aware that they originated in the TCG. The lore of the particular pack they were introduced in, is the reason that Insurgence - the game that sort of popularized the concept of Deltas - calls the portion of their website about Deltas the Honlon Dex.

Otherwise, nice work. Just don't get too ahead of yourself in implementing the official Alolan Forms, we already know that at least Sandslash and Sandshrew have different stats and we don't fully know their movepools.

I've been updating this every time we learn new information about the Alolan Forms. That said, we don't technically know Snowshrew and Snowslash have different stats from Sandshrew and Sandslash. The website mentions that they move slower than their non-Alolan counterparts, but that could just be flavor text. Until we see the official base stats, we can't say for sure if that'll be reflected in their actual battle prowess.

However, if we do learn that the base stats are different, I can add that capability fairly easily, since the MultipleForms code already allows for that.

is there a way to set a different y altitude for the delta sprite?

The abilities won't change for the delta Pokemon. I don't know again if this is because of BW essentials but, that's my guess with the issue.

Probably because the BW kit is based on v15 or lower, and the getAbilityList function of multiple forms was added in version 16.

Try adding this somewhere above the Alolan Forms script:

Code: 
class PokeBattle_Pokemon
  alias __mf_getAbilityList getAbilityList
  def getAbilityList
    v=MultipleForms.call("getAbilityList",self)
    return v if v!=nil && v.length>0
    return self.__mf_getAbilityList
  end
end
