[Eventing Question] Uncatchable/unrunable pokemon

[I draw pictures]

I want to make a story event in my game where you fight a legendary pokemon but you must defeat it and you can't run away or catch the pokemon, is this possible?

[Wiki Essentials v20] How to set a wild battle, in specific, setBattleRule("cannotRun"). There's the information (recommended read the whole page):

It currently works for Pokémon Essentials v20. Go to the 141 line of Battle_CatchAndStoreMixin and search this to make the wild Pokémon uncatchable:

if trainerBattle? && !(GameData::Item.get(ball).is_snag_ball? && battler.shadowPokemon?)
@scene.pbThrowAndDeflect(ball, 1)
pbDisplay(_INTL("The Trainer blocked your Poké Ball! Don't be a thief!"))
return

and replace it with this new code in below:

if trainerBattle? && !(GameData::Item.get(ball).is_snag_ball? && battler.shadowPokemon?)
@scene.pbThrowAndDeflect(ball, 1)
pbDisplay(_INTL("The Trainer blocked your Poké Ball! Don't be a thief!"))
else
if $game_switches[100]==true
@scene.pbThrowAndDeflect(ball,1)
pbDisplay(_INTL("The Pokémon attacked the Ball!\nSeems it cannot be caught!"))
return
end
end

Now when the 100 switch is on, the wild Pokémon will deflect the Poké ball, obviously you can change which switch to use with the line if $game_switches[100]==true.

Anyone knows how to make the ball not to be consumed?
