Resource Manually Allocate EVs 1.0

Creg · Mar 8, 2023

Creg submitted a new resource:

Manually Allocate EVs - Take control of your Pokémon's EVs, and eliminate the grind of EV training!

View attachment 16356

This script overhauls the way EVs are gained and distributed to Pokémon. As you gain EVs, you can manually choose which stats to apply them to, removing the grind associated with EV training. This script works by storing accumulated EVs in an EV "Buffer," and allows the player to manually allocate accumulated EVs to a Pokémon's statistics.

Features:

Ability to manually allocate each EV to an individual Pokémon's stats.

Configurable...

At first, the script was running fine, but for some reason when I pressed Z the stats screen wouldn't switch and just play the cry like normal. When I copied and pasted the part of the script that says to copy into the UI Summary, I did that and that still didn't work. But for some reason, whenever I add in the plugin now, this error pops up. What do I do? This plugin would especially be helpful for my game (Elementals), since the difficulty of major battles (gym battles, rival, E4, Champion, evil team admins and leader) is higher compared to the official games.

I'm on the v20 version, and upon testing, it seems a Pokemon only gains level up EVs if you use a Rare Candy, and not Exp Candies? (I'm making a game where the only levelling methods are these two hence why I'm only mentioning these two)

EDIT: After doing some testing on my own, I found that the code was the same as the v19 one, and not with the updated v20 syntax that it should have been. Here's the code I changed to get it working as intended.

Fixed code:

The script is nice and seems to fit my needs. Just a little thing, a subfolder inside the plugin folder is missing, that would allow to copy paste everything into the root folder easily

Does this work in v21.1?

Replacing every instance of SpriteWrapper with Sprite seems to fix it, but it may not work well depending on what other plugins are used (like plugins that add summary pages)

It doesn't work with IV displayer in v21. Still waiting for an unpdate. I have to use a different pluggin that basically disables vitamins (Which I don't like)
