Ruby Trainer Classes (Not done)

What I really find funny is "Hex Maniac." I don't think that was ever used, and perhaps it was a joke from Nintendo :p

Nah, it was a pretty rare trainer class but they did appear a couple of times in R/S/E mainly around Mt Pyre. They were no joke :P

 

[esperance]

Yes, but what I find odd is the "Trainer" thing. I believe that it was used to be "PKMN Trainer"

 

[knizz]

You forgot 0823E558: PKMN Trainer

EDIT:
Just read the post above ^^

EDIT2:
Trainer class name table: 0823E558 (length per entry = 0xD)
Pointer to table: 080D80A0 (for repointing)

Ability name table: 0824FC40
Pointer to table: 080D8004 (for repointing)

Move name table: 08247094
Offset table to move types: (e.g. "a FIGHTING move") 083FEA28
" BERRY": 083FD8AF

You see... I'm bored

Yeah, I just realized that. It was late when I made the list.

I have a question when it comes to these trainer classes.

I've noticed that a few of these trainer classes (mainly the leader, elite four and champion) have a few qualities that differentiates them from all the other classes
- gym leaders: Special battle theme
- elite 4: Special battle theme + intro mugshots
- champion: Special battle theme + intro mugshots + Name of Rival

The champion class is especially interesting as it ignores the name you give it in a Trainer Editor and automatically gives it the name of your rival (since in FRLG, your rival is the champion.) However, in my hack I want to have a different champion.

Now for my question: Would it be possible to have a trainer class with all the qualities of the Champion, but without the rival name?

Did you try giving a random trainer the trainer class Champion? I think I remember reading somewhere that it didn't matter about the class. My mind could be playing tricks though, please confirm :D

Yeah, I've done that. What happens is it ignores the name I give and says "Champion (Rival) wants to battle!". I believe what matters is the specific offset of the trainer class. For Champion, it's 0x5A (in firered). So if I would change that class name to e.g. "Team Rocket Leader", it would have all the same qualities (mugshots, music and rival name).

I suppose this can be changed with hex editing, although I have no idea how to approach that or what the values would be.

It is indeed done with a hex editor and it's actually a really simple change. See this post for details. Also, (not too sure, off of memory) if you don't want any classes to be forced to the rival's name, just change everything from D8142 to D814D to 00. (and just a note, anything can be changed with a hex editor provided you know what to change)

Thanks for the help, I got it.
