    • How to make Pokemon follow you & battle you

    Step 1 :

    Step 2:
    Wait can be any # that you want for the Re-Spawn

    Step 3:

    Now there probably is an easier way to do this or someone already has done this.​

    You don't need step 3 and no there isn't a better way to do this, so there's no "easier" way.

    But nice tutorial still.

    The event will walk/look much better if you put speed at Slow, and Freq at Highest.
    This will keep the event moving across the screen, instead of its current one tile at a time.

    Now that you see how it works, you can change speeds to whichever you desire,
    but I would recommend staying between Slower, Slow, and Fast for the best results.

    • I'd suggest making some text for people to copy and paste to save a little time.

    And I'd advise that you make the corrections mentioned by the two above.

    Other than that, thanks for the tutorial.

    • huh treating them like MMO mobs with a set respawn cooldown. I'm wondering if you can insert a radomizer in the wait time

    EDIT: you can!

    Instead of the wait command, in a script command

    Code: 
    @wait_count = rand(min..max)

    • Thank you.
    I made a few modifications to the script to better adjust the respawn since the wait time max is only 900 frames or so.
    The main purpose is to give them a minute based respawn for more rare pokemon.
    Here's what I've done.

    1- put the "pbSetEventTime(x)" (where x=event id, could be 1 or more events)

    2- page 2 stays the same, and page 3 has the following configuration ;
    a variable "s:cooledDown?(x)" - where "x" is the seconds of the time you want the event to cool down ; the variable you can create yourself
    and the following commands in the event configuration

    I'm wondering if someone would know a way to randomize the pokemon level...

    • actually i made a script per say that spawns random pokemon based on a variable

    Code: 
    # Pokemon Species 
$game_variables[80]=rand(PBSpecies.maxValue)+1
# Map event that changes into Graphic of Pokemon
pbMoveRoute($game_map.events[3],[PBMoveRoute::Graphic,pbGet(80).to_s,0,2,0])
# Level of Pokemon
level = rand(20)
# Battle
pbWildBattle(PBSpecies::pbGet(80).to_i,level)

    I want to do a pokemon event following me, after being defeated captured he will not appear on the map anymore, but if he is defeated or I leave the battle he will fly, can it be done?

    Can this be based off the encounters.txt at all? Like generating a few overworld Pokemon based from the text file randomly? Or would I have to make some kind of string of possibilities within the event?

    hmmmmmm you may have to define a new variable that randomizes between the possible encounters at the given probabilities then have a conditional branch starting a wild battle for each value of that variable, but there may be a more efficient solution

    so somethinglike like
    $game_variables[id#]=rand(12)
    Condtional Branch: $game_variables[id#]==0
    pbWildBattle(:RATTATA,5)
    else
    Conditional Branch: $game_variables[id#]>0
    pbWildBattle(:PIDGEY,5)
    branch end

    etc

    You have a period right before the bracket there.
