Project: Generation 6 for Pokémon Essentials (Pokémon sprites and PBS files)

[FL]

Strange, we haven't all effect moves/Abilities from Gen IV/V done already, isn't better for focus the old ones?

Thing is, this generation there are no official sprites and artists tend to be extremely sensitive about people who repost (even with credits), resize, recolour, use, position and crop them.

Not to mention the fact that not even half the VI overworlds have been done by any artist, let alone used in a game: *image removed*

I know plenty of spriters myself who would be extremely angry if they found their sprites used in a game. It might take time to edit Pokemon backsprites and shinies, but 'resizing' would not even account for half the actual amount of time taken to actually create those Pokemon backsprites and shinies from scratch. Hence the sensitivity.

I am also not sure if anyone here has requested permission to use the Smogon sprite set in Pokemon Essentials (for the pack, not for every single seperate game.)

There several artists who made free for use sprites, there's one who made all the new pokémon: https://noscium.deviantart.com/art/Pokemon-sprite-tribute-Kalos-Dex-Complete-406635242

Only if you have the luxury of being able to script. There's no point in attempting something you know you're not going to be able to achieve.

Strange, we haven't all effect moves/Abilities from Gen IV/V done already, isn't better for focus the old ones?

I fail to see why Gen 5 would be prioritized over Gen 6 or Gen 6 over Gen 5 honestly. They all would need to be done at some point regardless, I just figured I would keep the focus on Gen 6 as that is the topic of this thread.

In all honesty, I am unsure why they were never in Essentials to begin with. I am sure there is a somewhat valid reason, but moves and abilities seem more essential than the actual Pokemon themselves in a sense simply because the move pools and abilities can really be applied to any Pokemon a developer so chooses even fakemon.

But alas, they are not and it has been one of those "If you want them..." moments, which I am fine with in all honesty.

 

[Nickalooose]

So is there no sense of order with any list of moves and abilities that need doing or don't need doing?
Because, I don't see the point to any discussion over Gen 5 or Gen 6 if potentially, 4 people can accomplish making the same move... There was some order on the animations project... There needs to be one here... And as Destiny has stated, there are many people who can't code like they'd hope, so the coders need some direction and the guys that want to learn can learn from the moves and abilities made or are available.

A word to the person who has the whole project however, make it public so someone can make this list... If there is no list... Someone start one... I have no idea what Gen 6 moves and abilities are out there since I don't support Gen 6 in the slightest... But I'm sure someone can compile a simple list.

The word "list" is starting to get irritating lol.

 

[Worldslayer608]

My understanding is that there is no list because one person was going to tackle all of it... and I think therein is the heart of the issue anyways.

The OP has also not been seen since Dec 18th as that is their last login date...

 

[XmarkXalanX]

Sharing some of the moves I've worked on. Not many, and fairly simple ones, but it's all I can contribute at the moment.

NOTE: I've made some edits to this post. Please check the bottom of this post for info regarding the most recent updates.

I have no idea what Gen 6 moves and abilities are out there since I don't support Gen 6 in the slightest... But I'm sure someone can compile a simple list.

The word "list" is starting to get irritating lol.

Here's a list of moves by gen. The first Gen 6 move is 560, Flying Press, then the rest are all after that.

EDIT: I think I'll look back through the thread and find which abilities and moves have been posted to the thread, then make a note in each list by each move so they can function as a check-list to show what's been done. As this thread evolves and more stuff gets completed, feel free to copy and paste or quote these lists with updates.

EDIT 2: Scrolled through pages 4 and 5. I thiiiink I "checked off" all the moves that had an actual script update (these checklists are not for the .txt files - just the scripts). If I miss any, feel more than welcome to reply with the corrections. Please only "check off" moves and abilities that are already posted in the thread, not moves you plan to do. And of course, moderators are welcome to update this post as needed.

I think I might do a more robust update compilation post; we kind of need one at this point....

 

[Nickalooose]

Now there's a post I can enjoy reading... Excluding the adult Pokemon game lol.
Thank you PKJ... Now we can get on with things.
I think the OP needs to be changed or a new thread created and this one deleted or locked, since worldslayer608 is right... Why does an inactive get to hold on to this, we'd have to keep reverting back to post 106 to see everything without PTJ spamming with huge posts every time someone adds a move or ability.

 

[joeyhugg]

With xmarkxalanx's scripts added, I made this:

589,CELEBRATE,Celebrate,138,0,NORMAL,Status,100,40,0,00,0,,Cute,"The Pokémon congratulates you on your special day!"
590,AROMATICMIST,Aromatic Mist,136,0,FAIRY,Status,0,20,0,100,0,,Cute,"The user raises the Sp. Def stat of an ally Pokémon with a mysterious aroma."
591,NOBLEROAR,Noble Roar,134,0,NORMAL,Status,100,30,0,00,0,bcfk,Tough,"Letting out a noble roar, the user intimidates the target and lowers its Attack and Sp. Atk stats."

 

[~JV~]

Mega Launcher: (put it before Flash Fire, in PokeBattle_Move)

    if isConst?(attacker.ability,PBAbilities,:MEGALAUNCHER) #by ~JV~
          if @id == 25 or @id == 56 or @id == 93 or @id == 548 #each move ID, missing Heal Pulse
              basedmg=(basedmg*1.5).floor
          end
       end

Gale Wings: (put it on PokeBattle_Battle, inside the def "pbPriority", right after Prankster)

pri+=1 if isConst?(@battlers[i].ability,PBAbilities,:GALEWINGS) && #by ~JV~
         isConst?(move.type,PBTypes,:FLYING)

Competitive: (put it after Defiant on PokeBattle_Effects)

if !selfreduce && isConst?(self.ability, PBAbilities, :COMPETITIVE) #JV
               pbIncreaseStat(PBStats::SPATK,2,false)
               @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("Competitive sharply raised {1}'s Special Attack!", pbThis))
         end

I still have some more and I'll post them when I have time and I am also working on some of the more complicated ones like sticky web, protean and the "terrain" moves.


EDIT: Also, you could highlight the moves that already have implemented effects, like the ones that have no effect at all, are just regular multi-hit etc...

 

[Maruno]

I think I might do a more robust update compilation post; we kind of need one at this point....

Since you went to all the trouble of making a compilation post, I went ahead and merged (a copy of) it into the first post, as well as made it yours. It'd definitely be better for you to edit the first post with updates in future, rather than arbitrary post 106 on page 5.

After searching with Ctrl+Shift+F, there is no "Defiant" section. The other two work, though.

 

[~JV~]

After searching with Ctrl+Shift+F, there is no "Defiant" section. The other two work, though.

Sorry, forgot I added Defiant myself some time ago, just throw it inside "if pbCanReduceStatStage?(stat,showMessages,selfreduce)" on the def "pbReduceStat" before the "return true" line.

 

[joeyhugg]

Ok, it worked. I edited this based on your code and put it under Competitive:

      if !selfreduce && isConst?(self.ability, PBAbilities, :DEFIANT) #JV and Joeyhugg
               pbIncreaseStat(PBStats::ATK,2,false)
               @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("Defiant sharply raised {1}'s Attack!", pbThis))
         end

Edit: I also added Land's Wrath, Oblivion Wing, and Hold Back. Oblivion Wing requires you install xmarkxalanx's Draining Kiss add-on.

592,HOLDBACK,Hold Back,0E9,40,NORMAL,Physical,100,40,0,00,0,abef,Cute,"The user holds back when it attacks and the target is left with at least 1 HP."
593,LANDSWRATH,Land's Wrath,000,90,GROUND,Physical,100,10,0,04,0,bf,Tough,"The user gathers the energy of the land and focuses that power on opposing Pokémon to damage them."

Edit 2: I added Nuzzle, Boomburst. and Water Shuriken. For Nuzzle, add the code in the spoiler to the end of PokeBattle_MoveEffects.

595,NUZZLE,Nuzzle,139,20,ELECTRIC,Physical,100,20,0,00,0,abef,Cool,"The user attacks by nuzzling its electrified cheeks against the target. This also leaves the target with paralysis."
596,WATERSHURIKEN,Water Shuriken,0C0,15,WATER,Physical,100,20,0,00,1,bf,Tough,"The user hits the target with throwing stars two to five times in a row. This move always goes first."
597,BOOMBURST,Boomburst,075,140,NORMAL,Special,100,10,0,08,0,befk,Smart,"The user attacks everything around it with the destructive power of a terrible, explosive sound."

[XmarkXalanX]

@joeyhugg: You can just use the 007 function code for Nuzzle. All you'd have to do is change part 10 (Additional Effect Chance) to 100, and it will always paralyze the foe.

Oh, thanks. That works. In other news, I tried adding Magician. Can someone test this for me? Place this under the Pickpocket section in PokeBattle_Battle.

      end

Edit: Is there a coding tutorial for Essentials somewhere? Like, a list of methods, data types, basic tutorials, etc? That would be helpful, especially when we need a lot of new code for all this stuff.

Edit 2: I managed to make it so Effect Spore does not affect Grass Types. Replace the Effect Spore method in PokeBattle_Battle with this.

Dark Aura and Fairy Aura (from Bulbapedia) seem to be roughly the same as Pixelate but we're not changing the type. So I think it's something like:

    if isConst?(type,PBTypes,:DARK) && isConst?(attacker.ability,PBAbilities,:DARKAURA)
      basedmg=(basedmg*1.333).floor
    end

    if isConst?(type,PBTypes,:FAIRY) && isConst?(attacker.ability,PBAbilities,:FAIRYAURA)
      basedmg=(basedmg*1.333).floor
    end

 

[Worldslayer608]

I feel like for the sake of organization, the OP needs to be one by an active member..

 

[Ratty524]

If you guys need some Fairy moves, I've got a few of the easy ones that I implemented in the game I'm working on without scripting, since I noticed most of these moves aren't on the checklist:

XXX,BABYDOLLEYES,Baby-Doll Eyes,042,0,FAIRY,Status,100,30,0,00,1,bcde,Cute,"The user stares at the target with its baby-doll eyes, which lowers its Attack stat. This move always goes first."
XXX,DAZZLINGGLEAM,Dazzling Gleam,000,80,FAIRY,Special,100,10,0,00,0,bef,Cute,"The user damages opposing Pokémon by emitting a powerful flash."
XXX,DISARMINGVOICE,Disarming Voice,0A5,40,FAIRY,Special,0,15,0,04,0,befk,Cute,"Letting out a charming cry, the user does emotional damage to opposing Pokémon. This attack never misses."
XXX,FAIRYWIND,Fairy Wind,00,40,FAIRY,Special,100,30,0,00,0,bef,Cute,"The user stirs up a fairy wind and strikes the target with it."
XXX,MOONBLAST,Moonblast,045,95,FAIRY,Special,100,15,10,00,0,bef,Cute,"Borrowing the power of the moon, the user attacks the target. This may also lower the target's Sp. Atk stat."
XXX,PLAYROUGH,Play Rough,042,90,FAIRY,Physical,90,10,10,00,0,abef,Tough,"The user plays rough with the target and attacks it. This may also lower the target's Attack stat."

Obviously replace "XXX" with the ID of the move in the PBS, and make sure you have the Fairy type defined and all. The contest types are also BS'd, so you can change them to whatever. Let me know if any corrections need to be made because I added these when Bulbapedia didn't have a lot of up to date information on them.

By the way, all of you guys are awesome for doing this. Just remember that.
