    I'm new to essentials so if I missed something basic let me know.

    I defined the shadow type the types.txt.

    I set a new sprite and named it like the wiki says to do.

    I'm using one of the default shadows in SHADOWMVOES.txt. Teddiursa to be specific.
    TEDDIURSA=SHADOWBLITZ,SHADOWMIST (from shadowmoves.txt)

    I have set up a move set for the shadow pokemon and have filled the slots with moves that get replaced by shadow moves.

    (from trainers.text
    If I understand correctly Fire punch should be replaced with shadow blitz and dragon dance with shadow mist

    When I do catch it the pokemon knows no moves and can only struggle.

    If there is anything else that I need to do let me know.
    When ever I catch the test pokemon I get this error

  • Did you check if all shadow moves are in move.txt?
    Spoiler:


    Edit the first number for you last number in move.txt.

    Thank you. The first part of the post has been solved.
    I'm still getting a run time error saying there is no target.
