How to check the Type of the party's first Pokemon via script, so you need a Pokemon of the correct type to pass the check?

For example, a NPC could check if there's a Water Pokemon in your party. If you have one, he says "Cool!" and does nothing else. If you don't have one, he says "You need a Water Pokemon in your party".

The goal is to make a script with two different outcomes, and the type check determines that outcome.

This function in "PSystem_PokemonUtilities" should help. :)

Code:

# Returns true if there is a Pokémon with the given type in the player's party.
def pbHasType?(type)
  type = getID(PBTypes,type)
  for pokemon in $Trainer.pokemonParty
    return true if pokemon.hasType?(type)
  end
  return false
end

Example:

Code:

pbHasType?(:GRASS)
