[Scripting Question] Temporarily changing a Pokémon's level

[Tigerfang98]

Does anyone know how to temporarily raise all pokemon in your party to lv100 and then bring them back to their normal levels when you leave the room or something?

Im NOT very good at scripts, but I think I got some clues on how to do it.

https://pokemonessentials.wikia.com/wiki/Manipulating_Pokémon#Choosing_a_Pok.C3.A9mon

Take a look at the second bits of code. There's a code for storing a Level as a variable. Pair it with the scriptcall to manipulate a pokemon in the party ($Trainer.pokemonParty[0] ??) so you can store their levels in 6 different variables, then simply modifiy their level (the easiest part) and use Poke.calcstats before fighting, then using the variables to set their levels backs (then calcstats again).

The problem comes with allowing the player to change the party's order. Then everything I said is not doable.

There's probably a cleaner way of doing this, but here's how I'd do it, since AFAIK, pokemon.level is just a function that calculates itself based on pokemon.exp:

In Pokemon_MultipleForms, around line 152 (in my game, though I think I added some stuff so it should be higher for you), do this

  alias __mf_baseStats baseStats
  alias __mf_ability ability
  alias __mf_type1 type1
  alias __mf_type2 type2
  alias __mf_weight weight
  alias __mf_getMoveList getMoveList
  alias __mf_wildHoldItems wildHoldItems
  alias __mf_baseExp baseExp
  alias __mf_evYield evYield
  alias __mf_initialize initialize
  [COLOR="Red"]alias __mf_level level

  def level
    if $game_switches[98]
      return 100
    else
      return __mf_level
    end
  end[/COLOR]

Put the information shown in the picture attached, in the event data for the door that leads into the room where you want all Pokemon to be level 100. For the door that leads out, add something similar, but turn switch 98 OFF.

Note, however, that this method affects Pokemon in both your party and opponents' parties, meaning if you wanted to do a room where the Devine Power Of Arceus is flowing through you and you show this by making your Pokemon level 100 and enemies' Pokemon level 1, this method wouldn't work. But I'm working under the assumption you just want to make something like the Battle Maison, where levels are equalized across the board.

Text version... I think.

for i in $Trainer.party
i.calcstats
end

The levels are listed as 100, but the stats are still the same. Why is this?

In your event, after turning the switch on, and again after turning the switch off, you need to add this as a script chunk:

for i in $Trainer.party
  i.calcStats
end
