    I'm finishing up a hack with just a few more events to tie up, but my progress is at a halt right now because of my lack of understanding of a pretty basic scripting method. I don't really have a proper understanding of how to make OWs appear at certain times (and making them disappear, but I assume these go hand-in-hand).

    For example, say I want Blaine to disappear from his gym and appear in the Mansion basement after the player beat the E4: Do I put a Blaine OW in the mansion, write a script that starts with a hidesprite command and checks for a flag to activate a showsprite command? Or is it something with level scripts?
     
    Flags are the easy way!

    Give each Blaine a flag, putting the number in the trainer ID box in A-Map. If their flag is set, that means they will disappear!

    So at the end of the elite four, you will no doubt set a flag anyway, you could use that flag as Blaine-gym's ID. Mansion Blaine is a bit harder - the flag needs to be set further in advance (so he is hidden when you first enter) and then cleared after the league.

    Hope you found this useful and you can get it working!!
