What does the script do?
The Script will create a cool cutscene where the player is able to choose his Pokémon.

Getting started:
- Download the Sprites from https://www.mediafire.com/?a9bxepawiuvtcrq and put them into your game.
- Copy the Script below into a new script section above Main, and call it "Pokemon Starter Selection"

Code:

If you are using the Elite Battle 2015 System then set USING_ELITE_BATTLE (in line 16) to true!

You can change the Level of the Starter Pokémon by editing the line (In this case, the Level for the Starters is 5.) :

Code:

STARTERLEVEL = 5

To Call the Script use:
PokemonStarterSelection.new(
1,4,7)

To change the Pokémon in the Starter Selection, change the three values to the number of the Pokémon in the pokemon.txt file.
so it's build like that: PokemonStarterSelection.new(PokémonNumber1,PokémonNumber2,PokémonNumber3)

Example:
PokemonStarterSelection.new(
1,155,258)
to choose between bulbasaur(1),cyndaquil(155) and mudkip(258).

NOTE: This script does also include mouse inputs which means that it's compatible with Luka S.J's mouse module. If you are not using it you won't get any errors either.

If you found bug or need support feel free to contact me!

this works really good with all versions till v18.1 [haven't checked with v19] but how do i make an if condition by which events can be manipulated based on which starter they chose?

Hi,

This script is updated to v19. Now instead of the id of the Pokemon use colon then the internal name of the Pokemon.
Example: PokemonStarterSelection.new(:METAGROSS,:SALAMENCE,:RAYQUAZA)

I am new in Essentials, so if someone can make it better, please do.

I have updated the script to V18.1 thanks to the instructions, but something strange is happening. When I call the script with an event, the background images appear for a second and vanish again. The starter sprites won't show up and I can't select anything either. I think this is happening because of EBDX and I will have to use the traditional starter selection if I can't solve it.

The updates v19 script works perfectly fine, with EBDX that is... without it, the area where the type (as in grass water and fire) overlap the pokemon and the name of the pokemon isn't in the correct place. Perhaps a UI glitch?

i need help.. this always comes up when i talk to the npc

Hi,

This script is updated to v19. Now instead of the id of the Pokemon use colon then the internal name of the Pokemon.
Example: PokemonStarterSelection.new(:METAGROSS,:SALAMENCE,:RAYQUAZA)



I am new in Essentials, so if someone can make it better, please do.

Thanks, I really needed this.

Hi all. Will freely admit, signed up for this... and because having an error I'm not sure how to solve. I've tried what I thought would work... but kept resulting in errors. So... even if its been a few months, just wondering if anyone has had similar problems?

Edit;
So, looked through the notes and the posts, and managed to get to the screen with the balls... and then this popped up.

Help trying this on v20.1 essentials and getting an error, not sure if there is a more updated version of this.

For @SmiCat or others looking to get this working on Essentials v20.1

Here is my script. I do have some things custom positioned as I am using a different background, but play with X and Y coordinates for each sprite to make it work for you.

Main issue was with the way displaying the types was built. I will try to reimplement that soon.

Mine works with Pokemon name, not ID number. Be sure to put a colon in front of the name.

Example of function call:
