Playing animation for a Poké Ball opening?

Pipsqueak737 · Jun 1, 2018

I'm trying to make a Gen 1 style game using Pokémon Essentials GS (really outdated, I know). I made an animation for a Poké Ball opening called "Common:PokeballAnim" and as far as I know it should work. However as I'm still pretty new to all of this I can't get the animation to run without an error.

Code:

def initialize(sprite,spritehash,pkmn,doublebattle)
@disposed=false
@PokemonBattlerSprite=sprite
@pkmn=pkmn
@PokemonBattlerSprite.visible=false
@PokemonBattlerSprite.tone=Tone.new(248,248,248,248)
@spritehash=spritehash
if doublebattle
@spritex=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLERD1_X if pkmn.index==0
@spritex=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLERD2_X if pkmn.index==2
else
@spritex=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLER_X
end
@spritey=0
@endspritey=adjustBattleSpriteY(sprite,pkmn.species,pkmn.index)
if doublebattle
@spritey+=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLERD1_Y if pkmn.index==0
@spritey+=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLERD2_Y if pkmn.index==2
@endspritey+=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLERD1_Y if pkmn.index==0
@endspritey+=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLERD2_Y if pkmn.index==2
else
@spritey+=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLER_Y
@endspritey+=PokeBattle_SceneConstants::PLAYERBATTLER_Y
end
#pbCommonAnimation("PokeballAnim",sprite,nil)
@animdone=false
@frame=0
end

When I run it here's the error I get:
