Script: Wonder Launcher [DBK Add-On] [v21.1]

[Lucidious89]

Wonder Launcher for v21.1
Replicates Wonder Launcher battles from Generation 5 into Essentials.

Overview
This plugin builds upon the Deluxe Battle Kit to add the Wonder Launcher functionality to your trainer battles. The Wonder Launcher was a feature that was introduced in Pokemon Black & White. In these games, you had the ability to queue for special PvP battles online where players had the ability to use items from their inventory during a competitive match - a first in the series.
However, these were not ordinary items from your bag. Instead, each player was given a special set inventory of items that could be launched onto the battlefield. These included typical healing items such as Potions, Revives, and status cures, as well as X items that would boost a Pokemon's stats. Additionally, each player had to earn the right to use one of these items during battle by spending a number of points relative to the quality of the selected item; points which were earned at the start of each turn.

This plugin aims to replicate this mechanic which will allow you to participate in Wonder Launcher battles against NPC trainers in Essentials.

Will you make it compatible with Bag Screen w/int. Party? Every time I use item in a wonder launcher battle this happens.

Oof, I always forget that plugin exists. That's going to be a pain to implement, I probably won't get to it for a bit.
