[Other] Vs. Seeker script won't work

I've been having trouble getting a vs. seeker script to work for Fire Red and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I have tried this script and some variations of it but without luck. Whenever I put the script in game I get one of two results:
1) either it will say no trainers are around and vs seeker gets turned off
2) the trainer will always have an X over their head and never rebattle ever.

My current template script:

#dynamic 0x815460

#org @start
trainerbattle 0x0 0x75 0x0 @before @beaten
special2 0x800D 0x39
compare 0x800D 0x1
if 0x1 goto @rebattle
msgbox @talk 0x6
end

#org @rebattle
trainerbattle 0x5 0x75 0x0 @before @beaten
msgbox @talk2 0x6
end

#org @before
= Hey ho, let's battle!

#org @beaten
= Big mistake!

#org @talk
= Hey there short stuff.

#org @talk2
= Battling is tough stuff.

I replicated your script and it worked perfectly. However, the script I used to give the player the Vs. Seeker included setflag 0x82C. This leads me to believe that that flag is used by the Vs. Seeker to check if you actually got the item at the right point in-game.
