Scripting Tutorial
For Pokescript

Hey everyone!
I've been on the community for a few months now, and I've learned many things about scripting, thanks to people like Irish

Witch, Zel, and Christos.
But....
Some of their stuff is pretty hard to understand, so I'm going to try making an easy-to-understand-tutorial.

All of this will be done on POKESCRIPT, the program created by Irish Witch.


Now then, let's begin.

Starting Off

The first thing needed to know about scripting is how to write text.
It can't simply be written as "blah blah blah",
It needs to be written in a special format.

Let's just say for all intentional purposes, we want to say this text.

Spoiler:

"Hello, my name is Joe. I am a pokemon trainer from Pallet Town.

Now, we need to write it using slashes (\) and a certain character to indicate where that is in the talking. Observe.

Spoiler:

"Hello,\n my name is Joe.\pI am a pokemon trainer from Pallet\nTown. /SPOILER]

You can see the "\n" and the "\p". \n represents something like
"continues on next half of box".
For example, it would look like:

Spoiler:

Hello,
My name is Joe.

\p represents "new box"

Spoiler:

Hello,
My name is Joe.

I am a pokemon trainer from Pallet
Town.

There is also "\l" which is kind of the same as \p, but you will notice the difference when you actually make a script.

Now then, we seem to be done with that. Moving on.


Simple Script

For this tutorial, when I say simple script, I mean something not too compicated, but still includes a little bit

complication. (For beginners)

Okay, when I say simple script, I always think of the professor Oak's aid script.
It works like this:
-when you talk to the aid, he will say hello, and give you an item (potion)

Now then, on to your first script.
To begin, we must open notepad, and type the following:

Spoiler:

#ORG

That small bit of code represents the beginning of a script.
ALWAYS PUT THAT!

After that, place an offset.

Spoiler:

$begin

It really does not matter what you write there, but I usually say something like that.

Okay, so we want the aid to talk to you, so we have it say a message. But before that, we need to put the following:

Spoiler:

lock
faceplayer

The lock means that the character will not move around while they're talking to you.
Faceplayer is self-explanitary. (Face the player)

So, on to the message.

Spoiler:

message $aidtalk

(again, the offset does not matter.)

We shall have the aid say:

Spoiler:

Oh, hello [PLAYER]. Here, take this potion!

[PLAYER] shows the name of the player.
HOWEVER
Only use [PLAYER] in a program called advance text.
When making an actual script, we use the offset "\v\h01" That will make the name show up.
So, this is what it will look like:

Spoiler:

message $aidtalk
$aidtalk 1 = Oh, hello \v\h01.\pHere, take this potion!
boxset 6

Okay, the "$aidtalk 1 = " is to represent that that offset is this text.
The boxset 6 means that it is a normal text box.
(If you wanted a yes\no script, use boxset5)

Now, for the potion.
We will use the giveitem command to give it.
The offset for the item potion is

Spoiler:

0xD

.
before using an offset for an item, song, pokemon, character, or warp, use 0x.

So, we use

Spoiler:

giveitem 0xD 1

The 1 just tells that we're getting 1 potion.

But there is one more thing we need. To prevent this event from being repeated, we must use flags. Flags

basicly tell whether or not this has happened.
A flag is written in the form of: < 0xFLAG > Where it says FLAG, we must replace it with a number. The numbers between 200-

299, and 800-899 are okay to use.
EG. 0x200

But we can't simple write "flag 0x200", we need to say what about it we want. Setflag, Clearflag, and Checkflag are the only

things we can do. (so far as I know) Setflag means that the player has done the event.

And, this is our complete script:

Spoiler:

#ORG $begin
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x200
if B_true goto $done
message $aidtalk
boxset 6
giveitem 0xD 1
setflag 0x200
release
end

#org $done
message $aidtalk2
boxset 6
release
end

#org $aidtalk
$aidtalk 1 = Oh, hello \v\h01.\pHere, take this potion!

#org $aidtalk2
$aidtalk2 1 = Hello.

The reason we put the aidtalk at the bottom is becuase it compiles better, and there usually aren't any glitches. Do that

with all of your scripts. EVERYTHING WITH AN OFFSET $ GOES AT THE BOTTOM.

And that, is a simple script!
Now you can write it to your rom using pokescript.
(See Irish Witch's tutorial for explanation)

I don't know if I mentioned this, but the reason for the 1 after the 0xD is for the quantity of the item. For this example,
we want to recieve one potion.

Now then, you have made your first simple script!

Now, let's get a little more complex.
We'll use this same script, just edit it.

Now, let's say we want the aid to be activated by instead of being talked to, when the player steps in a certain spot. The

way we will do this is by adding "Applymovement" to our script. So, instead of putting "Faceplayer" we will put

"Applymovement".

Like this:

Spoiler:

#ORG $begin
checkflag 0x200
if B_true goto $done
applymovement 0x01 $aidwalk1
pause 0x30
message $aidtalk
boxset 6
giveitem 0xD
setflag 0x200
release
end

Now, the fist thing you may notice is that we no longer have the Lock command. The reason being is that is we lock the

person, well, really he can't move if we lock him.

Next, you'll notice that we put an 0x01 after applymovement. That indicates that the person with the people number 1 in

advance map will move.

Then we have our offset. It's just a randomly defined thing, as usual.

And last, we have our Pause 0x30. That represents that the script will wait for the aid to take three steps before

continuing. Use 0x10 to represent one step, 0x20 for two, and 0x30 for three.

As usual, we have Release. Like any script, end it with release. If I haven't already said it, END EVERY SCRIPT WITH
release
end

But just "Applymovement" won't do everything. We need to fill it in.

Here is a list of all the movements in fire red.

Spoiler:

' Specials
0x4A ' Face player
0x4B ' Face against player
0x60 ' Disappear (removes the sprite, but the person can still be interacted with)
0x62 ' "!" pops up
0x63 ' "?" pops up
0x64 ' "X" pops up (vs-seeker cant fight)
0x65 ' "!!" pops up (vs-seeker can fight)
0x66 ' "" pops up

' walking
0x01 ' step Up0
0x02 ' step Left0
0x03 ' step Right0
0x04 ' step Down0
0x08 ' step down1
0x09 ' step up1
0x0A ' step left1
0x0B ' step right1
0x0C ' step down2
0x0D ' step up2
0x0E ' step left2
0x0F ' step right2
0x10 ' step down3
0x11 ' step up3
0x12 ' step left3
0x13 ' step right3
0x1D ' step down4
0x1E ' step up4
0x1F ' step left4
0x20 ' step right4

' jump in place looking where it says
0x52 ' jump0 down
0x53 ' jump0 up
0x54 ' jump0 left
0x55 ' jump0 right

' jump in place looking in the order it says
0x56 ' jump0 down/up
0x57 ' jump0 up/down
0x58 ' jump0 left/right
0x59 ' jump0 right/left

' Jump Direction
0x4E ' jump1 down
0x4F ' jump1 up
0x50 ' jump1 left
0x51 ' jump1 right

0x14 ' jump2 down
0x15 ' jump2 up
0x16 ' jump2 left
0x17 ' jump2 right

0x46 ' jumpLookingLeft1 down
0x47 ' jumpLookingDown1 up (jump backwards)
0x48 ' jumpLookingUp1 left
0x49 ' jumpLookingLeft right (jump backwards)

These are the offsets for basic movement:
UP = 0x11
DOWN = 0x10
LEFT = 0x12
RIGHT = 0x13

So, for this script, we'll have the aid move three steps right over to the player.
And since we'll be using items, we'll need a list of them.

As we see, potion is 0xD

It will look like this:

Spoiler:

#ORG $begin
checkflag 0x200
if B_true goto $done
applymovement 0x01 $aidwalk1
pause 0x30
message $aidtalk
boxset 6
giveitem 0xD
setflag 0x200
release
end

#org $done
release
end

#org $aidwalk1
$aidwalk1 1 ; #binary 0x13 0x13 0x13 0xFE

#org $aidtalk
$aidtalk 1 = Oh, hello \v\h01.\pHere, take this potion!

At this point, you may be a little confused. We put the 1 for the same reason that we do in a text script.

The simicolon (;) is the same thing as and equals. (=) We just use simicolons in movement scripts.

The #binary is just how we begin a list of movements. EG. 0x13 0x13 0x13

And last, the 0xFE. That's how we end a list of movements. 0x13 0x13 0x13 0xfe
IT MUST BE AT THE END OF EVERY LIST OF MOVEMENTS.

You may aso be wondering why we changed the $done sequence to just a release end.
The reason for that is because now, we're not talking to the aid. We're stepping on a certain point on the map that will

activate the script. And we don't want for it to be that we step in the spot and all of the sudden, the text "Hello" shows up

on the screen! So, we just replace it with release, and end. That will make it so nothing happens when we step there.

Now it's done! The event with the number 1 will move. Just set this script in advance map, and for the var values, put 03 in

the fist one, 50 in the third one, and 40 in the fourth one. That will make your script run correctly.


Follow me Script
Those simple commands are nice and all, but a game gets boring when you use all simple scripts. So, let's get a little more

difficult.

Let's take for example, one of the fist scripts in gold & silver. The one where if you try to leave, the lady, Mary I think,

will walk over to you and stop you and make you come with her back to her original location until you see the professor. And

when this script happens, the follow me song plays.

The way that this is done, would look kinda like this.

Spoiler:

checkflag 0x200
if B_true goto $done
playsound 0x13B
#raw 0x33
applymovement 0x01 $mw1
pause 0x50
message $mt1
boxset 6
applymovement 0x01 $mw2
applymovement 0xFF $mw2
pause 0x50
fadesound
release
end

So, there's our music script. Applymovement 0xFF will move the player. We have $mw2 for the player's move because we want the

player to follow mary, so we give it the same movement. The #raw 0x33 after playsound is there just to prevent the game from

freezing. And just for your knowledge, 'fadesound' makes the song fade to the map's original song. If you don't put

fadesound, the song will continue playing even when the script ends.

For everyone reading the tutorial, if you want an actual follow me script, you can use this.

Spoiler:

#org $begin
checkflag 0x200
if B_true goto $done
playsound 0x13B
#raw 0x33
applymovement 0x01 $mw1
pause 0x50
message $mt1
boxset 6
applymovement 0x01 $mw2
applymovement 0xFF $mw2
pause 0x50
fadesound
release
end

#org $done
release
end

#org $mw1
$mw1 ; #binary 0x12 0x12 0x12 0x12 0x12 0xFE left left left left left

#org $mt1
$mt1 1 = Hold on, \v\h01!\nProf. Elm wants to see you!

#org $mw2
$mw2 1 ; #binary 0x13 0x13 0x13 0x13 0x13 0xFE Right right right right right

You can compile that into your game, and it will work.
Just take out the 'right's and 'left's

.......well..... what now?........ I guess a really complex script.... But, what else is there to cover?.....
Have I mentioned giving pokemon?.....
No, I don't think I have.

Very well, Giving Pokemon
First, we need our list of pokemon.

Okay, whew! There's our list.
So, if we want the player to recieve a pokemon from a certain pokemon, we need to do it like this.
givepokemon 0x[pokemon] 0x[level] 0x[held item]
of course you need to fill in what I put in []
HOWEVER, IF YOU PUT 0x BEFORE YOUR NUMBER, YOUR RESULT MAY BE SOMETHING OTHER THAN YOU EXPECTED.
I RECOMMEND JUST PUTTING THE PLAIN NUMBER OF THE POKEMON.
givepokemon 394 50 8B
That will give me a level 50 gardevoir that's holding an oran berry.

Spoiler:

Sample:

#org $begin
lock
faceplayer
checkflag 0x232
if B_true goto $gotit
message $q
boxset 6
givepokemon 398 5 0
setflag 0x232
release
end

#org $gotit
message $hi
boxset 6
release
end

#org $hi
$hi 1 = Hello, how's my old BELDUM?

#org $q
$q 1 = I have this BELDUM, but I feel\nlike a lousy TRAINER.\pYou can have it.

And that's how you do a givepokemon script.
Note: Generally, you will want to put the command 'givepokemon' towards the end of the script to ensure success.
Also: When you get the pokemon, there will not be a small message saying "You obtained a Squirtle" or anything like that. If

you want that, you should make a message saying that.
And for now, I suppose that's it.
I already have a tutorial on trainer battles, so maybe I don't need it here.

Well, I guess.

Trainer Battles
Sample:

Spoiler:

#org $go
trainerbattle 1 0x001 $before $after
message $beaten
boxset 6
release
end

#org $before
$before 1 = Let's battle!

#org $after
$after 1 = I lost...

#org $beaten
$beaten 1 = You already won, why are you\nstill bothering me?!

That script would be a perfect trainerbattle script. The '1' after trainerbattle I just always put there. 0x001 is for the

PET ID of the trainer. $before is what the trainer says before the fight, and $after is what they say when they lose. If you

want the script to continue after the battle, do this:

Spoiler:

#org $go
trainerbattle 1 0x001 $before $after $further
message $beaten
boxset 6
release
end

#org $before
$before 1 = Let's battle!

#org $after
$after 1 = I lost...

#org $beaten
$beaten 1 = You already won, why are you\nstill bothering me?!

#org $further
message $beaten
boxset 6
release
end

You can pretty much do anything you want with the after sequence. Of course, it does NOT NEED to be "further". It could be

anything you want.

So for now, that's my whole tutorial. If there's something I missed, let me know, and I'll cover it.
Hope this helps!

Warping

To warp the player to another location, simply put the command:

warp 0x[map bank] 0x[map] 0x[warp]

However, the script will usually end after a warp is done.

 

[Short Range]

What would happen it someone gave you a Pokemon but your Party was full? Would it overwrite a Pokemon or would it go straight to your box?

 

[Christos]

You could have the script check if you have 6 pokémon in your party, and if you do you won't get the pokémon.
If it doesn't check for that it'll go to your box.

 

[<~F.M.P~>]

WOW! Nicely detailed tutorial I enjoyed it. It was really easy for ppl who still don't understand movements like me, can u elaborate where the var things go a lil more mabye like show a pic or somethin PLEASSE?

 

[jack276]

How do you continue movements into another location eg a house.

 

[foullump]

How do you continue movements into another location eg a house.

You could use a warp. However, the script will end after that.

 

[redragon]

How do I put the script into the rom though?

BTW, thanks for this, it's alot easier to understand than the elite map tutorial for scripting.

 

[giova90]

ok i've a question!
can i put a script that you tell with a sprite and at the end it jump somewhere?(for example as tha hack mitic island, when the lady getting in the water!the only oddity is how the water do a
spurt?)
:-)
i'm not a native i only speak bad the english!!!
please reply

 

[thethethethe]

could you show a script to make a pokemon shiny???

 

[redragon]

It possible to make a person follow you, because after I'm done with my current project, I plan on making a Yellow remake.

 

[Ivysaur]

could you show a script to make a pokemon shiny???

You have a tutorial here
By the way, thanks, I was crazy with the movement scripts. :)

 

[dark navi]

what if there is no "compile" selection? Im soo close, I can taste it...... :( but I cant get passed "compile"

 

[foullump]

Open pokescript, and then go to file, database, then select from pkmn advance "commands". Then go to file, encode, and chose your script.

 

[dark navi]

It freezes when I click the guy, even if I just copy the exact script from here.... it always dies....

 

[lquidfire]

..

foullump,I still don't get it (a bit)i understand the bit with the sample of the aid giving the potion,but not the talk,well i haven't
read through the whole thing so tht might be the problem...... oh well,im just a beginner:paranoid:

 

[redragon]

Uhh... sorry, good tut, but I don't get this, I typed up a script to give a pokemon, did all the stuff you said to do in pokescript, then hit encode, chose the rom and got this error message:

Sorry, but you'll have to ask Irish Witch, because I don't know anything about programming.

 

[dark navi]

Is there any specific reason my game freezes when I put one of your scripts in?

 

[<~F.M.P~>]

Is there any specific reason my game freezes when I put one of your scripts in?

Look at the script again u might have miss typed something what script are u making i might be able to help.

In order for him to be a trainer, his script must be a trainerbattle script.
Make sure there's no lock or faceplayer in it.
