[Scripting Question] Thunder Armor Ability

I also had an idea inspired by the anime.
The Thunder Armor ability is made for Swellow, and works best in tandem with items that weaken Electric moves.
I need help figuring out how to program this.

So, an ability like Justified is probably a good place to start, it triggers when hit by a move of a particular type. Then you'll need to work out how to change the form. Perhaps looking for how Castform or Zen Mode works is a start there, since they are form changes that happen in-battle.

It was pretty simple to do.
Just copy this code and paste above this line: if target.hasWorkingAbility(:JUSTIFIED) && isConst?(movetype,PBTypes,:DARK)

This should work perfectly ^^

Code:

        if target.hasWorkingAbility(:THUNDERARMOR) && isConst?(movetype,PBTypes,:ELECTRIC) && target.form == 0
          target.form = 1
          target.pbUpdate(true)
          @battle.scene.pbChangePokemon(target,target.pokemon)
          @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("¡{1} change its form!", target.pbThis,PBAbilities.getName(target.ability)))
        end

This should work perfectly ^^

Indeed it does. One thing I didn't think of is that Swellow can get paralyzed, and it becomes Electric/Flying after changing its form. It does work though, even has the set stat changes and set sprites.
