Blank Errors

So, when I was adding in some new trainers, this popped up. 10 times.

That has a blank line number and blank species name, MEANING that I cant find where the error is, therefore not being able to fix it. Dont know if this is possible, but can someone help me without having me to delete my game? :/

Try posting your trainers.txt, it's hard to specifically diagnose something without the source.

What you likely did is something like this (just an example):

YOUNGSTER
Joey
3
RATTATA
RATICATE

YOUNGSTER
.......

As you can see, you'd have told the Compiler that the trainer has three Pok?mon, so the Compiler counts three lines downwards. Since YOUNGSTER is not a valid species, it gave an error. I believe this is the issue.

OMG! I just remembered I had to leave in the middle of coding, and only made 5 pokemon for a 6 pokemon trainer! thanks so much for reminding me!
