Type 0 is an ordinary battle. Script execution stops after the battle, regardless of its outcome.

1 and 2 are identical, and run scripts after the battle ends (but only if the player won). They except one extra argument: the offset of the script to run. (The script with "trainerbattle" stops running, and the offset you specify starts running.)

3 is a continue-battle. The script that calls "trainerbattle" keeps running after the battle (but only if the player won).

4 is a double battle. It accepts one extra argument: the offset of some text to display if the player does not have two or more usable Pokemon (and hence can't start the battle).

5 is a rematch battle. It's almost identical to 0, but it will actually check the trainer number and do a lookup, to see if you're supposed to battle one of their rematch battles instead. To use this to its fullest potential, you would need to learn more about the rematch functionality.

6 is a special kind of double battle that accepts two extra arguments. I have no idea what the second extra argument is.

7 is a double rematch battle.

8 is a clone of 6.

9 is a tutorial battle. So far as I know, it functions identically to 0 except that the player will not whiteout if they lose the battle. Passing in 0x0003 instead of 0x0000 (as the unknown halfword argument) enables Oak's mid-battle narration.

All other values are treated as type-0 battles.

Note that if the trainer you specify has already been defeated, "trainerbattle" does nothing and the script that calls it will keep running unless you used a rematch battle type. And I think you need an ASM hack to change the music.

Help me please i took the daycare script from Firered and used it so the player must give in a poke but i cant get it so that the player can recall the pokes i have done this...

You're not using "compare" properly.

You're doing a comparison, but you're not checking the result (with an "if" command). You make the same mistake with every comparison in the script except for the first one, which is why it's broken.

hi im trying to make all team rocket grunts use the RSE trainer battle music in pokemon leaf green. What script command can do this?

Hello.
I was wondering how to change the character's sprite at will.
I know it's possible, because that's what happens every time the player rides their bike or goes fishing, but I don't know the proper commands to use in XSE.
This is for FRLG, by the way.

Help would be greatly appreciated, as I'm using this for a puzzle in my hack.
Thanks.

Those aren't implemented with script commands. There are no script commands that can change the player's sprite...

...unless you're modding FireRed and you've applied JPAN's Hacked Engine.

Hmm...

How is it done in the game?
ASM? Because I was planning on learning that soon, and I might as well start here.

It's ASM, but that knowledge alone wouldn't be enough to reverse-engineer it. I'd imagine that the code for that particular sprite-change is buried deep in the game engine. It'd be hard to find, let alone reverse-engineer -- unless someone already has, that is.

JPAN's FireRed Hacked Engine adds functionality that allows you to change the player's overworld sprites from a script. His patch is meant to be applied only to a clean FR ROM (it deletes a lot of stuff), but he also has a hack tool that can apply the changes to a hack-in-progress (it's trickier, though).

I've looked up some videos of it in action, and some of them do state that it's an ASM hack. But no one gives details.

Which means that if none of them reply to their YouTube messages, I'll check out JPAN's Hacked Engine.

Thank you, David.

Hi, member's of Pokemon community , I was wondering if there is a script for the ROM Pokemon firered To make Whichever one you don't choose [Boy ,Girl ] become your rival like pokemon Emerald . Including pokemon overworld sprite changing gender.

There isn't one single script, but there are a combination of techniques you could use.

In the maps on which the rival appears, you could use the dynamic OW functionality in JPAN's Hacked Engine. Have a level script check the player's gender and change the rival OW accordingly.

In battle scripts, things get more difficult... The simplest way would be to simply create one trainer for every possible rival -- one trainer per gender per starter. Then, when you trigger the battle from a script, check the player's gender in addition to the player's starter and initiate the appropriate trainer battle.

The only trouble I can see happening is in the intro sequence, where you actually name the rival. You'd need ASM modifications to conditionally alter their big sprite and to set a different OW to appear on the naming screen.

Is there a script that can make the NPC walk backwards?

Hmm... I don't think so. Sorry.

My Question:
If I move a NPC through a script over to another map, they won't disappear unless they leave my sight. Now, this is awesome and all, but how do I make it disappear in front of my eyes? Will the Person Id stay the same and all I have to do is hidesprite, or is there some other way? Or is the only way to make them disappear is to make them leave my sight?

You can make the NPC disappear with hidesprite. Person ID is flag-based, not map-based.

So, if you didn't know, just use hidesprite, then setflag that person's Person ID.

The best way to make NPC disappear is by using applymovement.
applymovement 'hide'
applymovement 'movements that make NPC to some place player cannot reach'
setflag
And once you leave the map, NPC won't be there until you clear its flag =D

Yes using clearflag is useful when there's a sprite you want hidden for the moment until another time when you want it resurfaced on a map you've been through a dozen times.

I'm looking to create a "train" script where you can see the players sprite as the train moves. How would I keep the character moving in sync with the train without making it walk as the train is moving?

Why in the world don't you want sync movement? o.O
Make player disappear when he "enters" train, make him reappear when you want "looking through the window" and use sync movement.
There's no point in trying it by using other means o.O

Im currently hacking a fire red rom and i have found a huge bug, when i go into a battle then select the bag option in the battle interface the game restarts to the start screen at the beginning of the game, i havent added any scripts yet. do i have to set a flag or anything? (i copied the file and made a give pokemon script also and it still occurs)

Wouldn't it be easier to use some script or ASM (i.e. JPAN's engine) to change the player's OW into one whose walking and standing frames are identical, and then use applymovement?

Since ASM is concerned I must say no. ;)
And remember, not everyone can do ASM. :)

hello folks!


Appologise for my first post being that of a requesting nature, but I'm having a fair
bit of trouble with a script I'm working on for a questline.

So far i've managed to finish the quest scripts apart from the final event, which is as follows.


player talks to npc, npc warps him outside building,
two new npcs are stood blocking the door which was previously used to access
this building.

Any ideas?

quick over view

*have building with entrance clear
*enter building, do quest
* finish quest, warp back outside building
*entrance to building now blocked by two npcs


Using Fire Red, english type BRP, v1.0

Pretty easy to do.
1) Put those 2 NPC that will block the entrance in A-Map.
2) Assign them with some flag.
3) Set that flag before you do actual script. It means that those two blocking the way will disappear.
4) Script the script where NPC warps player and add clearflag 0x(number of flag that was assigned to those 2 NPCs) command =)

Aaaaaaack!! So simple!! I was trying to
over complicate it! I guess sometimes you need to step out of the forest to see the trees.

Happy to report it worked beautifully, the variable is now set in pallet town during the oak script.

Thanks Ash!

alright this is probably gonna seem like a stupid question because its gonna be a simple answer but hope do i make a pokeball with an item in it. i can make it and gives you the item and everything but i dont know how to get it to disapear right after so you cant get it anymore
