  :teracharge

  to set whether the player's Tera Orb is charged or not.

• Added the

  "primal"

  midbattle trigger, which activates whenever a Pokemon initiates Primal Reversion.
• Added the

  "gmax"

  midbattle trigger when using the ZUD Plugin, which activates whenever a Pokemon Dynamaxes specifically when doing so would cause them to enter Gigantamax form.

  "tera"

  midbattle trigger when using the Terastal Phenomenon plugin, which activates whenever a Pokemon Terastallizes.

  "teraType"

  midbattle trigger when using the Terastal Phenomenon plugin, which activates whenever a Terastallized Pokemon selects a damaging move that matches their Tera Type.
• Expanded the functionality of several midbattle triggers to now allow you to specify certain criteria. These triggers are as follows:

  • "item"

    
    You may now attach a specific item ID to this trigger so that it may only trigger when that specific item is used. For example,

    "itemPOTION"

    will only ever trigger if the player uses a Potion from their inventory, whereas

    "itemFULLRESTORE_foe"

    would only ever trigger when an opponent uses a Full Restore.
    
    

  • "statusInflicted"

    
    You may now attach a specific status ID to this trigger so that it may only trigger when that specific status is inflicated. For example,

    "statusInflictedPOISON"

    will only ever trigger if the player's Pokemon is inflicted with the Poison status, whereas

    "statusInflictedBURN_foe"

    would only ever trigger when an opponent's Pokemon is inflicted with the Burn status.
    
    

  • "mega"

    ,

    "primal"

    ,

    "ultra"

    ,

    "dynamax"

    ,

    "gmax"

    ,

    "zmove"

    ,

    "tera"

    ,

    "teraType"

    
    You may now attach a specific species ID to these triggers so that they may only trigger when that specific species triggers them. For example,

    "megaGYARADOS"

    will only ever trigger if the player specifically Mega Evolves a Gyarados, and no other species; whereas

    "primalKYOGRE_foe"

    would only ever trigger specifically when the opponent has a Kyogre that enters Primal form. You may also attach a Type ID instead to trigger when a Pokemon of a particular type triggers these mechanics, instead. When using a Type ID with the

    "zmove"

    or

    "teraType"

    triggers, the type will instead refer to the type of the Pokemon's selected move. When using a Type ID with the

    "tera"

    trigger, the type will instead refer to the Tera Type of the Pokemon, instead of its actual types.
    
    

  • "recall"

    ,

    "beforeNext"

    ,

    "afterNext"

    
    You may now attach a specific species ID OR a specific type ID to these triggers so that they may only trigger when the specific species OR a Pokemon of a specific type is switched out or enters battle. For example,

    "recallPIKACHU"

    will only ever trigger when the player withdraws a Pikachu from battle; whereas

    "afterNextPSYCHIC_foe"

    would only ever trigger specifically when the opponent sends in a Psychic-type Pokemon.
    
    

  • "fainted"

    
    You may now attach a specific species ID OR a specific type ID to these triggers so that they may only trigger when the specific species OR a Pokemon of a specific type faints. For example,

    "faintedMEOWTH"

    will only ever trigger when the player has a Meowth on the field that faints; whereas

    "faintedWATER_foe"

    would only ever trigger specifically when the opponent has a Water-type Pokemon on the field that faints.
