Temporarily taking away the player's Pokemon?

Guest123123 · Feb 19, 2018

For my Battle Frontier, there are two facilities where players won't be battling with their Pokemon (one in which battles won't be done with Pokemon at all).

From the "Manipulating Pokemon" page on the Essentials wiki, I learned the scripts used to delete Pokemon from the player's party. But I wasn't able to find ones to use to temporarily take away the player's Pokemon and to give them back later. I assume that something like it exists since Pyrite does this when Silver is sent to the past, and Apex does this when it switches perspectives from the player to a different character. But I haven't been able to find or locate these scripts.

That's because it's not a built in feature.
Fortunately, I've done it before!
I know for a fact it works on v16.2, and I don't think v17+ changes anything that would break this script.
Mind you, there's the limtation that switching parties causes you to lose what ever is in Party2 when you switch back to the original party (wasn't a requirement at the time).
If I look on the wiki forums, there should be a version with slightly more features, but I don't remember if I still have it.
EDIT: Scratch that, It was just a way to have more than one set of parties and the code sucks. For the sake of it though

Code:

def takeParty(party=2)
  case party
  when 2
     @party2 = @party
  when 3
     @party3 = @party
  end
  @party = []
end

def giveParty(party=2)
  case party
  when 2
     @party = @party2
     @party2 = []
  when 3
     @party = @party3
     @party3 = []
  end
end
