[Other] "src/data/text/species_names.h:1: syntax error before 'const'"

Hi all

I tried making a script for a trainer battle, but once the script was complete, when I tried to make the .gba file, WSL showed the error in the title: https://i.imgur.com/OPdzN9D.png
I have no idea why it would be showing that error, as I have not edited the 'species_names' folder at all, as shown: https://i.imgur.com/7ZwEKU5.png
The files which I had edited were 'trainers.h', 'trainer_parties.h', and the '.pory' file for my Test map.

Did you forget to define TRAINER_Testtrainer in include/constants/opponents.h ?
EDIT: Also if that is the end of trainers.h, you're missing a ; at the end

I defined it in opponents.h, and btw, I was missing ; from trainers.h, and it worked, I have no idea why it would point me to species_names, but thank you so much

I think the compiler notices the error in species_names.h because that's included right after trainers.h in data.c and the compiler reads it while expecting a ; before anything else.

Oh, so it just mistook the name because I didn't end the previous file properly?
