This looks nice !
Is there a way to modify the script to add a switch in to know if the player selected a boy or a girl ?

You know, for later events in the game that depend on the player's gender.

Oh No! It isn't necessary.

You can change the player's gender without switch.

In folder "PBS", search "trainertypes" and "metadata".

In metadata, each player have a name like: "PlayerA=POKEMONTRAINER_Red", this name will decide the player who is male or female. Why? Because in "trainertypes", you can see line "0,POKEMONTRAINER_Red,Pokémon Trainer,60,,,,Male,,", this line decided 'POKEMONTRAINER_Red' who is a male. So, you can set up each character who is male or female with this method.

If you want more informations, search this determine gender

This might be a silly question, sorry, but what does this section refer to?

Do I need to change it to the names in metadata.txt, the names in trainertypes.txt, or something else? Thanks in advance

This is the name of the pictures in folder: "GenderSelection". In this script, you can change
Avatar_A = "AvatarA"
into
Avatar_A = "Somename"
but in the folder "GenderSelection", your picture must change the name "AvatarA" into "Somename".

Great script! However there are some minor issues which do need be addressed.

The sprite placements are wacky... they're all skewed off center to the right. And there is no pbNamePlayer so you have to add that in yourself. Those are all quick fixes for a future patch.

This looks really cool, but for some reason the avatar sprites don't show up. Am I doing something wrong?

Edit: It works flawlessly actually, but the sprites still never show up in the character selection screen. I'm using the default backgrounds provided. Could it be a layering issue?

Edit2: Nope, tried it with transparent backgrounds. The avatar images just aren't showing up at all for some reason. I'm on essentials 7.2

Edit3: Also tried it on a blank version of Essentials, no dice

Spoiler:

Sorry about that! But this script just give you how to choice what boy or what girl... and the name, you can find in Event 001 of pokemon essentials, after Show choice (like I noted in my script).

Spoiler:

Maybe, you don't add new player in metadata because I tested and it's compatible pokemon essentials v18.1

Update:
Now, this scipt can have mutiple choices, it's easier to change name and position,etc. Just remember "add player for choose".

Don't you have like a video on how to add new characters for v19? I do not understand over how to add new characters and display them in the selection screen. Could you step by step note it down?
