Script: DiegoWT's Starter Selection (v21.1)

DiegoWT · Jul 28, 2021

Hey there, how are you all?
Give a brand new look for your starter selection with this plugin!

(Remember that the gifs do not reflect quite well the in-game quality)
Features:

Choose between HGSS or BW/B2W2 graphics style;
Two options of background for the scene: Oak's lab and Hoenn's tall grass (including a version of the bg without the tall grass);
Customization options for your starter's level, form, shininess, IVs, cry (if you want it to be played or not), background (to show only the 1st starter's type or both the 1st and 2st type's color), position and it's background circle's size;
If you need to check which starter was selected, the script already updates the Variable 7 (Starter Choice) according to the selected starter, being 1 the first starter, 2 the second and 3 the third.

Installation:

Spoiler:

If you have any suggestions or get any error using the script, please contact me here or on Discord, diegowt.
That's all, don't forget to credit me, DiegoWT.

Code:

#===============================================================================
# DiegoWT's Starter Selection script
#===============================================================================

# To start the scene, call the script "DiegoWTsStarterSelection.new(x,y,z)", 
# where x, y and z are the dex number of your starters.
# Level of your starters:
  STARTERL = 5
 
# Interface style (1 for HGSS, 2 for BW):
  INSTYLE = 2

# Form of each Starter species:
  STARTER1F = 0 # First Starter
  STARTER2F = 0 # Second Starter
  STARTER3F = 0 # Third Starter
  
# Horizontal and vertical values for editing the starter position:
  STARTER1X = 0; STARTER1Y = 0 # First Starter
  STARTER2X = 0; STARTER2Y = 0 # Second Starter
  STARTER3X = 0; STARTER3Y = 0 # Third Starter
# Here, for the horizontal lines, negative numbers are left and the positive 
# ones are right. For the vertical lines, negative numbers are up and the
# positive ones are down.
  
# Starter's circle size configuration. Configure how big you want the Starter
# white circle to be:
  STARTERCZ = 0 # 0 is normal size; 1 is double the size

You can make compatible with 16.3?plis

NoNoNever · Aug 19, 2021

Lol, just upgrade to v19 16.2 is outdated

DiegoWT · Oct 20, 2021

New update! Version 1.2:
- Fixed a bug where the starter's form would show up only on the starter's screen, but the player would not receive the correct starter form;
- The script call was revised to properly work with the species ID, not the national dex number;
- Now when a starter is selected, it will properly play its cry (configurable if you don't want it);
- A new configuration for allowing the plugin to show the starter's second type when selected is now present in the settings.

DiegoWT · Oct 28, 2021

New update! Version 1.25:
- Fixed the script's window text only showing the 2nd starter's type when the two gradients option is enabled. Now, it will show both types of the starters and, if it doesn't have two, it will show only one;
- Now there's a better explanation for the two gradients option in the script settings.

Well done! So far, my favorite starter selection script.

theRiolvile · Nov 26, 2021

Would it be possible to make it work with Pokemon SDK ?

Dunno, the script was made to work with Pokémon Essentials. Good luck on trying to make it work with the PSDK.

DiegoWT · Jun 28, 2022

Update v1.3.0:
- Fully updated the script to work with Essentials v20.1, and abandoned support to older versions.

Mahian23 · Jul 5, 2022

It didn't work with psdk TwT.

theRiolvile · Aug 13, 2022

Actually I prefer what I'm using as Essentials is so much easier to work with although would liked if shaders could be added and if more updates are coming well let's see.

DiegoWT · Sep 28, 2023

Update v1.5.0:
- Major overhaul of the scene graphics:
-- Altered the Poké Balls sprites, and made their highlights a different image for the animation to be more realistic;
-- Remade the background and added a new one based on Hoenn's starter selection.
- New Settings' options: Set your preferred background, your starters' shininess, IVs and items;
- Remade the Poké Balls' swing animation for it to be more faithful to Gen 5's Poké Balls' animations;
- Fully updated the script to work with Essentials v21.1, and abandoned support to older versions.

Script: DiegoWT's Starter Selection (v21.1)
