[Scripting Question] Totem Boosts

[NeoCrimson]

Is it possible to make a wild encounter get stat boosts at the start of the battle like a Totem or UB? I was thinking of making UB encounters get stat boosts.

I kind of have a solution. You can make a form of the Pokémon with boosted stats and give it a custom message when it enters the battle. In PokeBattle_Battle, find "Initialize wild Pokémon" and replace the section with this:

    if !@opponent
      if @party2.length==1
        if @doublebattle
          raise _INTL("Only two wild Pokémon are allowed in double battles")
        end
        wildpoke=@party2[0]
        @battlers[1].pbInitialize(wildpoke,0,false)
        @peer.pbOnEnteringBattle(self,wildpoke)
        pbSetSeen(wildpoke)
        @scene.pbStartBattle(self)
        if $game_switches[#]
          pbDisplayPaused(_INTL("Totem (1) appeared! Some of it's stats were boosted!"))
        else
          pbDisplayPaused(_INTL("Wild {1} appeared!",wildpoke.name))
        end
      elsif @party2.length==2
        if !@doublebattle
          raise _INTL("Only one wild Pokémon is allowed in single battles")
        end
        @battlers[1].pbInitialize(@party2[0],0,false)
        @battlers[3].pbInitialize(@party2[1],1,false)
        @peer.pbOnEnteringBattle(self,@party2[0])
        @peer.pbOnEnteringBattle(self,@party2[1])
        pbSetSeen(@party2[0])
        pbSetSeen(@party2[1])
        @scene.pbStartBattle(self)
        pbDisplayPaused(_INTL("Wild {1} and\r\n{2} appeared!",
           @party2[0].name,@party2[1].name))
      else
        raise _INTL("Only one or two wild Pokémon are allowed")
      end

Replace the # with a specified switch and use it like the Shiny Pokémon switch, turning it off immediately after battle. Hope this helps.

But then if the mon could have a move that boosted its stats like Nasty Plot, It would boost said stat meaning a max of +7 in a stat for stat boosts. I want something that actives upon entering battle like Intimidate or I could just make a Wild Battle Only Forme that resets upon capture for the UBS. With an ability that boosts a certain stat if in the wild.

Try this code in PokeBattle_Battler:

    # Air Balloon message
    if self.hasWorkingItem(:AIRBALLOON) && onactive
      @battle.pbDisplay(_INTL("{1} floats in the air with its {2}!",pbThis,PBItems.getName(self.item)))
    end
    [COLOR="Red"]# Totem Pokémon
    if $game_switches[#] && [email protected]?(@index) && onactive
      if isConst?(self.species,PBSpecies,:MIMIKYU) # Totem Mimikyu
        for i in [PBStats::ATTACK,PBStats::DEFENSE,PBStats::SPEED,
                  PBStats::SPATK,PBStats::SPDEF]
          @stages[i]+=1
        end
      end
    end[/COLOR]

Tried it but that just gave me a syntax error.
