[Scripting Question] Get opponents first pokemon species

[Pableroski]

Hello, I need to know the first pokemon of an opponent BEFORE the battle.
How could I do it?
Thanks

I found a roundabout way searching in the PBS file:

def pkm_trainer(type,name)

pkm=0
list=File.new "\PBS\\trainers.txt"
content=list.readlines
list.close

i=0
while i <=content.length-1
if content==type+"\n" && content[i+1]==name+"\n"
pkm=content[i+3]
i=content.length
end
i+=1
end
end

Being type the trainertype ("HIKER") and name the trainer`s name and possible versions ("Mary")/("Mary,2"), although for that last one you should include this:
if pkm.is_a?(String) && pkm.include?(",")
pkm=pkm.split (",") [0]
end

The result will be the Interal name of the first pkm of that trainer.
I'm sure there is a more direct way
