    I was opening up the playtesting, and it started to compile, then I remembered something I wanted to change, so I closed it out. I changed the one thing, and now there is an error!
    The error that I copied is:

    [Pokémon Essentials version 19.1]
    [v19.1 Hotfixes 1.0.7]

    Exception: Errno::ENOENT
    Message: File Data/species.dat not found.

    Backtrace:
    101: GameData: 62: in `load_data'
    101: GameData: 62: in `load'
    101: GameData: 221: in `load_all'

    372: Main: 43: in `loop'

    I have also attached a screenshot of the pop-up.

    Copy species.dat from the data folder of a clean copy of Essentials to your copy of essentials
     
    Thank you GT-Baka for your help! After I put species.dat in, it asked for a different file, so I put in all of the ones that were missing and it worked. Thank you!
