[Battle] Gen 3 (fire red) I want to make status moves deal damage with their effects, any idea how to do it?

    Hello, currently at wit's end here I'm working on a rom hack of pokemon fire red (replacing types, physical/special split, etc). I wanted to edit aspects of certain moves, and I couldn't figure out with current tools (g3t, pge) or hex editing how to make move effects (like sing's effect) deal damage to a target.

    Can someone help me better understand the system here and how I can change things like this (I don't own ASM btw and I'd like to avoid it if I can).

    I think there's a tutorial somewhere on PokeCommunity about editing/creating your own moves. Here

    Just look at moves that already exist like that and tweak their effects I think is the general advice from that tute. A program like Battle Script Pro might help you understand some ASM routines better too
     
    (oh my god, a response)

    Fair enough, I might look into battle scrip pro, but my issue is mostly that some of the existing effects are hard to tweak due to weird syntax that I haven't found help with (like with sing).
    I might explain batter later.
