[Scripting Question] Egg moves for forms

ant62 · Dec 20, 2017

In my game i am trying to give different forms their own egg moves. How do I go about doing this. I am using version 16.2

In PField_DayCare, you can use this code for move inheritance:

Code:

# Volt Tackle
  lightball=false
  if (isConst?(father.species,PBSpecies,:PIKACHU) || 
      isConst?(father.species,PBSpecies,:RAICHU)) && 
      isConst?(father.item,PBItems,:LIGHTBALL)
    lightball=true
  end
  if (isConst?(mother.species,PBSpecies,:PIKACHU) || 
      isConst?(mother.species,PBSpecies,:RAICHU)) && 
      isConst?(mother.item,PBItems,:LIGHTBALL)
    lightball=true
  end
  if lightball && isConst?(babyspecies,PBSpecies,:PICHU) &&
     hasConst?(PBMoves,:VOLTTACKLE)
    moves.push(getConst(PBMoves,:VOLTTACKLE))
  end
  [COLOR="Red"]# Different forms or regional variants
  case babyspecies
  when getConst(PBSpecies,:VULPIX) # example Alolan Vulpix
    if babyspecies.form == 1
      moves.push(getConst(PBMoves,:ICEBEAM))
      # etc
    end
    break
  end[/color]

As for form inheritance, you will need to think about which forms of various species would be dominant in your region. For example, eggs obtained in Alola bred from species with local variants will always hatch into an Alolan form. You can alter this code in PField_DayCare:

Code:

  # Inheriting form
  if isConst?(babyspecies,PBSpecies,:BURMY) ||
     isConst?(babyspecies,PBSpecies,:SHELLOS) ||
     isConst?(babyspecies,PBSpecies,:BASCULIN)
    egg.form=mother.form
  end
  [COLOR="red"]# Example Alolan variants
  if isConst?(babyspecies,PBSpecies,:VULPIX) ||
     isConst?(babyspecies,PBSpecies,:SANDSHREW) # etc
    egg.form=1
  end[/color]
