[Error] NoMethodError - undefined method 'iv' for #<PokeBattle_Battler>

[SupGamer NL]

I don't know why, but whenever a Pokémon wants to use the move Hidden Power I get this error:

Exception: NoMethodError
Message: undefined method 'iv' for #<PokeBattle_Battler>

I have a screenshot of the full error with the backtrace.

I can also add the errorlog.txt to this thread.

I have tried to find similar cases, but at last, I didn't find anything related to my problem.
I hope someone can help me with this problem

I have the same exact problem. I have the gen 8 project installed but not EBDX, if that helps

EDIT: This problem doesn't occur in default essentials 19.1

So, it seems to be a multiple step problem, and it appears to be related to the Gen 8 project (or at least the process of installing it). The first issue is that "iv" is undefined in the PokeBattle_Battler, where it is normally defined in v19.1. Under "class PokeBattle_Battler" add the following line of code:

attr_accessor :iv

However, if you just do that, it gives you a different error. You also need to go to the "Battler_Initialize" and head to the "def pbInitPokemon(pkmn,idxParty)". Towards the bottom of that definition you'll see this:

pkmn.moves.each_with_index do |m,i|
      if (isSpecies?(:ZACIAN) || isSpecies?(:ZAMAZENTA)) && @form == 1 && m.id == :IRONHEAD
        moveID = isSpecies?(:ZACIAN) ? :BEHEMOTHBLADE : :BEHEMOTHBASH
        @moves[i] = PokeBattle_Move.from_pokemon_move(@battle,Pokemon::Move.new(moveID))
        @moves[i].realMove = m
        maxPP =  GameData::Move.get(moveID).total_pp
        @moves[i].total_pp =  maxPP + (maxPP * m.ppup / 5)
        calcPP = ((m.pp/m.total_pp.to_f) * @moves[i].total_pp).to_i
        pbSetPP(@moves[i],calcPP)
      else
        @moves[i] = PokeBattle_Move.from_pokemon_move(@battle,m)
      end
    end
end

In between the first and second "end" at the bottom of the script, you need to add these lines

@iv           = {}
    GameData::Stat.each_main { |s| @iv[s.id] = pkmn.iv[s.id] }

After doing both these steps, you should no longer get an error when using Hidden Power. I tested it, it works both when you use it and when the opponent uses it. And the type is still dependent on your ivs.

Works perfectly now, thanks!

Thanks, it works now! Thank you so much, I've also added the code in the newly generated PokeBattle_Battler.rb & PokeBattle_Initialize.rb just to be sure.
