JPANS Hacked Engine
So, as we all know Gen 3 lacks a major feature some of the later games have, which is wonder trading.
As most know, you trade randomly with someone online to get a pokemon they randomly traded. Well, you need servers and online resources and some major coding knowledge I dont have cause im not a pro.
What I do have thou is offline wonder trading that you can control which pokemon the player is able to receive. This is the result of 3 weeks of nonstop work so without much ado, lets make this simple. This guide also assumes you know the BASICS of scripting, like lock, faceplayer ect. Basic stuff, ya know?
Any command questions as what does what, best resource i've found.

Now, because it uses JPANS hacked engine it may or may not work well with a hack in progress. I don't know. I do know the below code works with either the full hacked base with cleared scripts or his nifty little tool to apply certain parts of the hacked engine. A quick google search will give you the hacked engine, if I need to reupload his engine myself I will do so. Last I checked the link on the thread here was broke.
The filter is seperate from the code it's self because A) it makes it too long and B) because it puts wonder trading on an NPC i had different levels of the filter for the hack I was planning to build but gave up on due to personal limits.
How to
This is simple. Just open XSE, copy paste the clean script from below, add in the filter with whatever kinda modifications you want for the filter (explained below) and paste it into XSE. Make sure you insert the filter into the right spot. Then simply save it, then compile the script. Place the offset XSE gives you into a NPC on advancemap an enjoy randomly traded pokemon.
This is the code, in its purity.

This is the code explained in full....

Looks great, sounds great!
BUT WAIT THERES MORE! If you didn't notice there is a blank spot in the @start string. That's cause that should have been labeled the filter string, but I accidentally made the filter with @start instead of @filter an after I set it like I did I gave up cause I had done too many, was a hassle. The filter section is easy, simply
compare LASTRESULT 0xFFF
if 0x1 goto @start
where FFF is the pokemons hex code. If that pokemons number was generated then, it starts over an generates a new number until it found on not on the list. The list below is first comprised of Glitched pokemon that can appear through the glitch, gold bulbasaur and the blanks after celibi, while the rest of it is the legendary pokemon for gen 3. At the minimum to avoid messing things up, use 0x0 to 0x114 because those are the empty ingame slots.

BUGS
emme97 gave the fix for no pokemon selected, many thanks!
Levels are set to 50 in this version here. I dont know if I can randomize them through this method, much less make the levels realistic an no impossible leveled pokemon without an excess of if this then that routines. Just a heads up, you will have to filter the pokemon out depending on the level you set it to.
JPANS Hacked Engine Bug
Kinda rare but still happened to me while trying to code this, cause I use clean roms after every 5 code changes. Every now and then when you add JPANS hacked engine it will corrupt special 0x9f and it will only act like your picking the first pokemon no matter what. Something duun goofed if thats your problem, I hope you have a backup cause I dont know how to fix that. BEWARE
Happy Single Player Wonder Trading guys, I can't wait to see this in someones hack.
