Adding in "Cobra Strike" Ability

[joeyhugg]

I want to code in the ability "Cobra Strike" which makes all poison type moves stronger. Would this code work? I put right above Torrent, Blaze and Overgrow.

Spoiler:

if isConst?(attacker.ability,PBAbilities,:COBRASTRIKE)
if isConst?(type,PBTypes,:POISON)
basedmg=(basedmg*1.5).floor
end
end

Should work fine. You can shorten it to

if isConst?(attacker.ability,PBAbilities,:COBRASTRIKE) &&  isConst?(type,PBTypes,:POISON)
        basedmg=(basedmg*1.5).floor
      end

Did you consider testing it before asking?

Thanks! It worked! Just wanted confirmation.

For future reference, you can test if something works pretty easily.

if isConst?(attacker.ability,PBAbilities,:COBRASTRIKE) &&  isConst?(type,PBTypes,:POISON)
        basedmg=(basedmg*200).floor
      end

Battle a higher level pokemon, and you should be able to tell if it changed it or not with ease.
