Making an item to level down a pokemon

[mde2001]

Hi,

I was wondering how you would add an item to add an item that does the opposite of a rare candy (eg. level down a pokemon by 1).

I don't mind if it lowers happiness or other things like that.

Thanks.

ItemHandlers::UseOnPokemon.add(:DARKCANDY,proc{|item,pokemon,scene|
   pbChangeLevel(pokemon,pokemon.level-1,scene)
   scene.pbHardRefresh
   next true
})

search Rare Candy next time. The pbChangeLevel function already includes messages for if you're lowering the level.

Wouldn't you need to add an if statement to check if the Pokémon's level is equal to 1 so the level doesn't go to 0? I would do this myself, but I'm new to Ruby and don't know how to check for a Pokémon's level.

EDIT: I just tested it out and it doesn't lower the Pokémon's level if it is level 1. Sorry for doubting you, I'm new to this. If you need a Dark Candy icon, OP, I've quickly made one. It's attached below. Put it in Graphics>Icons and change 577 to the number of your Dark Candy item.

Thanks for your help!

I don't think I'm going to use that icon but thanks for making it anyway (if I do I'll credit you obviously!)

Sorry, another question now. Where would I put this code?
