Is there a simple way to change every single trainer's level to a specified number? (Fire Red)

[Chill 'Doof]

I'm asking this again, yes.

I'm inexperienced at programming, but is there an easy way to change every trainer mon and wild mon's level to 1? Just 1. It can never go higher than that. Perfect number.

But I don't exactly want to do horribly huge amounts of clicking and changing values, so any less time-consuming way? Thanks.

Unlikely.
Especially wirh binary hacking

Plus wouldn't you have to cancel out getting EXP too?

No, if by easy you mean a program that does it for you.

Your options are basically:
1. Write a program that edits a rom file and sets all trainer and wild mon level data to 1.
2. Modify the game's code to always create level 1 pokemon regardless of what the trainer/wild mon data says.

The latter is probably as simple as it gets since it requires editing only a couple lines of code in the decomp.

Uh, hey, so how exactly do I do that modification? I'm kinda bad at editing code, but I can modify basic stuff and all.

There are a couple ways to do it but one quick and hacky way is to modify the pokemon generation code since that will apply to all types of mons.
