    When I modify the encounters.txt and then I try to test the game throws me an error on this data HELP!

    This is the error

    Exception: RuntimeError

    Message: Undefined encounter type , expected one of the following:

    ["Land", "Cave", "Water", "RockSmash", "OldRod", "GoodRod", "SuperRod", "HeadbuttLow", "HeadbuttHigh", "LandMorning", "LandDay", "LandNight", "BugContest"]

    It looks to me like you forgot to include the encounter type. Check out this article on the wiki, you should find out how to define each maps encounters on this.
     
    But, I didn't forget to include the encounter type, I only changed the name of one Pokemon in the .txt file that was formed by the editor

    If you read the error message, it says you didn't properly define the encounter type. If my solution didn't work, would you mind posting the bit of text, or send me the text file so I can look at it?
     
    This is my encounters.txt file:
