[Battle✓] Changing Stat Calculations

[AtticusJay]

I'm trying to make a ROM hack which changes how stats are calculated. I want the Pokemon levels to be irrelevant to their stats, so basically every Pokemon will have stats as if they were level 50. For the life of me I cannot find where stats are calculated. Would someone mind pointing me to the right place, or perhaps a resource on the topic? Thank you in advance! <3
(I'm using pokeemerald-expansion btw)

The mon's stats are calculated in CalculateMonStats, sensibly enough. This function is found in src/pokemon.c. To have each mon treated as a level 50 mon, I think you would have to do something like this:

void CalculateMonStats(struct Pokemon *mon)
{
...................................................................................
    s32 newMaxHP;

    SetMonData(mon, MON_DATA_LEVEL, &level);

    level = 50; ← ← ← ← ← ← ADD THIS HERE

    if (species == SPECIES_SHEDINJA)
    {
        newMaxHP = 1;
............................................

This way, the mon will still increase in level for the sake of level-up learnsets, but as it calculates current attack, hp, etc, it will treat the mon as level 50. At least I think. I didn't test this, but it seems right.
