Pokémon Legends Arceus content
Gen 8 project for V18
Hi all,

I added some content of Pokémon Legends: Arceus to my game, so I thought I would share the code.
This add-on implements the code for Drowsy / Frostbite (the new statuses), as well as the new moves, new forms and new Pokémons.

First warnings:
Second warnings:
  • I wasn't planning to release this script, so I had to "extract" my edits for you. I may have forgotten some parts. If you feel something is missing and/or something doesn't work as expected, let me know ^^
  • I haven't played (and don't plan to play) to Pokémon Legends: Arceus, so maybe my messages for drowsiness/frostbite are not correct. Please tell me the right messages if you want.
  • Some edits are not "official". I don't like moves that increase evasion so I ignored this boost. Also, I considered that every move that thaws the user, also removes its frostbite. And Electric moves all remove drowsiness. You can comment the corresponding code if you don't like it.
  • This plugin is almost purely about scripting. For the sprites of the new Pokémons/forms, please follow this thread on Smogon.
  • The new moves + the new common animations for statuses are now on the todo-list for my animation project.

There is a script edit part. As always, be careful with it, make backups before anything.

Part 1 - PBS additions
Add the following data to the corresponding PBS file:
  • pokemon.txt
    Version 1: only the new Pokémons with their official movesets.
    Version 2: only the new Pokémons, with extended movesets (I tried to give more moves to the Pokémons).
    Version 3: all new data in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. You have to edit the PBS yourself.
  • pokemonforms.txt
    Version 1: only the new forms with their official movesets.
    Version 2: only the new forms, with extended movesets (I tried to give more moves to the Pokémons).
    Version 3: all new data in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. You have to edit the PBS yourself.
  • moves.txt
    Strong Style. Be careful with the ids of the moves. Note: all moves are in Strong Style.
    My own balance. Most moves are in Standard style, and some moves are in Strong Style (Raging Fury, Wave Crash, Chloroblast, Headlong Rush, maybe I'm missing some). This is an attempt at balancing the new moves, most of them are too powerful compared to the existing ones.

For pokemon.txt and pokemonforms.txt, if you don't know what to do, use Version 2 of both. These files give a larger moveset to each Pokémon.
Also, the tutor moves are added as a "TutorMoves" list. You should add them to the tm.txt file. Yes, this is tedious.

Part 2 - Status graphics
Download the attached ZIP file and merge the Graphics folder with your Graphics folder, and replace the files.

Part 3 - New script
Install this script, above Main, and below ZUD and Following Pokémon, if you use any of them.

Part 4 - Script edits.
Ow lawd, they coming.

Step 1 is, as always: make a backup!

There are undefined moves in the Pokemon PBS files. Most notably AUTUMNTEMPEST and WARMWELCOME.

Hi all,

I added some content of Pokémon Legends: Arceus to my game, so I thought I would share the code.
This add-on implements the code for Drowsy / Frostbite (the new statuses), as well as the new moves, new forms and new Pokémons.

First warnings:
  • This is an addition to the Gen 8 project for Essentials v18.
  • This is NOT for Essentials v18 or v18.1 alone.
  • This is NOT for Essentials v19.
  • I WON'T ADAPT THIS CODE TO V19. My game is in v18, I don't care about v19.
  • Anyone is welcome to integrate this code to v19, if you can adapt it.

Second warnings:
  • I wasn't planning to release this script, so I had to "extract" my edits for you. I may have forgotten some parts. If you feel something is missing and/or something doesn't work as expected, let me know ^^
  • I haven't played (and don't plan to play) to Pokémon Legends: Arceus, so maybe my messages for drowsiness/frostbite are not correct. Please tell me the right messages if you want.
  • Some edits are not "official". I don't like moves that increase evasion so I ignored this boost. Also, I considered that every move that unthaws the user, also removes its frostbite. And Electric moves all remove drowsiness. You can comment the corresponding code if you don't like it.
  • This plugin is almost purely about scripting. For the sprites of the new Pokémons/forms, please follow this thread on Smogon.
  • The new moves + the new common animations for statuses are now on the todo-list for my animation project.

There is a script edit part. As always, be careful with it, make backups before anything.



Add the following data to the corresponding PBS file:
  • pokemon.txt
    Version 1: only the new Pokémons with their official movesets.
    Version 2: only the new Pokémons, with extended movesets (I tried to give more moves to the Pokémons).
    Version 3: all new data in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. You have to edit the PBS yourself.
  • pokemonforms.txt
    Version 1: only the new forms with their official movesets.
    Version 2: only the new forms, with extended movesets (I tried to give more moves to the Pokémons).
    Version 3: all new data in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. You have to edit the PBS yourself.
  • moves.txt
    Only one version. Be careful with the ids of the moves.

For pokemon.txt and pokemonforms.txt, if you don't know what to do, use Version 2 of both. These files give a larger moveset to each Pokémon.
Also, the tutor moves are added as a "TutorMoves" list. You should add them to the tm.txt file. Yes, this is tedious.



Download the attached ZIP file and merge the Graphics folder with your Graphics folder, and replace the files.



Install this script, above Main, and below ZUD and Following Pokémon, if you use any of them.

          @sprites[i].tone.set(@sprites[i].tone.red+FREEZETONE[0],@sprites[i].tone.green+FREEZETONE[1],@sprites[i].tone.blue+FREEZETONE[2],@sprites[i].tone.gray+FREEZETONE[3])

As always, I don't care about credits, but I was alone on this.
Great job!!!

You can easily change that ^^
But I thought that upon evolving, the new type would be added, rather than replacing the first type.

Thanks for the hard work. I made a modification of the move script if that's okay. I didn't want to do edits to status scripts or status graphics, so I removed all of them. Frostbite and burn can be treated as the same thing mechanically imo, although StCooler's status implementations are very cool. I also tightened up Ceaseless Edge/Stone Axe by giving both moves the same effect, now named PBEffects::Splinters.

If anyone uses it credit still goes to StCooler. Script still goes above Main, and below ZUD and Following Pokémon, if you use any of them. Most v18 code used seems compatible with v19, but I adapted this to v19 where I spotted small possible differences. Personal assembly required, users should read the code (especially on Rapid Spin) and follow OP's script tweaks, apart from the parts that deal with new status conditions. Moves.txt also needs personal tweaks for the changed move codes. https://pastebin.com/tpQEd2MW

There's one line of new code I added that I'm not 100% sure on. I replaced drowzy on Dire Claw with yawn instead. I don't see why it wouldn't work in Ruby, but I've never seen a script in Essentials apply status this way. It's hard to debug this move at this stage.
when 0 then target.effects[PBEffects::Yawn] = 2 if target.pbCanSleepYawn?(user,false,self)
The new code for Stone Axe/Splinters In the file Battle_Phase_EndOfRound:
Spoiler: 
    # Damage from Hyper Mode (Shadow Pokémon)
    # Pokémon Legends: Arceus
    # Stone Axe Splinters
    priority.each do |b|
      b.effects[PBEffects::Splinters] -= 1
      next if b.effects[PBEffects::Splinters] < 0
      next if !b.takesIndirectDamage?
      pbCommonAnimation("StoneAxe",b) #placeholder, make your own animation
      oldHP = b.hp
      b.pbReduceHP(b.totalhp/8)
      pbDisplay(_INTL("The scattered splinters hurt {1}!",b.pbThis(true)))
      b.pbItemHPHealCheck
      b.pbAbilitiesOnDamageTaken(oldHP)
      b.pbFaint if b.fainted?
    end

As an added note, this is similar to Infestation without the trapping, but having a new script is good because it lets the effect apply a new common animation. I'm really hoping we get to see an animation added for Stealth Rock and/or Splinters in the Gen 8 animation project!

Actually I have a code to let you choose whether to use Drowsy/Frostbite or Sleep/Freeze ^^
Check out the first two constants of the script:

PLA_STATUS_MODE_FROSTBITE = 0
PLA_STATUS_MODE_DROWSY = 0
# 0 = new moves inflict Drowsy and Frostbite (respectively), old moves keep 
#     inflicting Sleep and Freeze.
# 1 = new moves AND old moves inflict Drowsy and Frostbite.
#     NB: Value 1 does not change the behaviour of Rest, Comatose and Yawn 
#     and I don't want to waste my time.
# 2 = new moves AND old moves inflict Sleep and Freeze.

It should be :
when 0 ; target.effects[PBEffects::Yawn] = 2 if target.pbCanSleepYawn?(user,false,self)
(Use ";" instead of "then")
It should be OK now.

Note that the line:

Should be below the code for Stone Axe and Ceaseless Edge ^^

Exactly my intent + I wanted to cumulate effects (trapping + two splinters). Using the same code means that they replace each other upon activation (if you use a trapping move, and then Stone Axe, then the damage of Stone Axe will replace that of the trapping move).
And the Gen 8 animation project... It's hard T__T

Yes indeed.
This is because the Powers and Accuracies of the Strong Style of the old moves correspond to their respective Powers and Accuracies in the old games.

You're right.

Pokémon Legends Arceus has its own battle system. I wanted to adapt the new moves to an old system. So I have to make choices.
Some moves are maybe too powerful when included to an old-style fangame, but that's not *my* problem. The dev has to make the balance himself.
I will release a somewhat balanced move file with *my* balancing, with custom accuracies and powers.

Is this everything I need to do to implement this code into v19.1?

@PorousMist326 I don't know because I'm not a Ruby expert. I come from Python and C-likes. I'm using most recent v19.1 and cross-referencing between StCooler's scripts and base v19.1, the only difference was when 0 then as opposed to when 0 ;. The biggest changes from v18 I can see is in what the script headers and some functions are named. Generally, v19.1 is less verbose and easier to understand imo. Most scripters should be able to fix possible differences from experience or after using and reading Essentials files long enough.

Most of the code looks the same between versions, everything compiled for me and I haven't run into problems so what I posted should just work *just be careful with Stealth Rock. I mostly post my code so I can cross-reference, find bugs/errors in what I did or maybe help other users improve their code too.

There is no Egg Breeding in PLA. So I want to know how you decide these moves?
This is why I didn't want to release this resource in the first place: every time I make a resource, it's for myself first, and then I extract everything to make it usable by others. I use Version 2 of pokemon.txt / pokemonforms.txt, and Version 1 is me trying removing the added content from Version 2, so there may be mistakes.

At the same time, if you don't specify the EggMoves here, the forms will inherit the egg moves of the original Pokémon.
