I would like to note that the select.png graphic is not showing up at all.

Hello, I would like to question, what would an example of a event like this be?

 

[Leondrea]

It would be nice if you'd add some example pictures of how this could look like

 

[TechSkylander1518]

This is really cool!

Some screencaps for people that were wondering-

Spoiler

Darryl pointed out that the Selection sprite isn't appearing- that's because there's a typo in the code, in the line

  @sprites["select"].setBitmap("Graphics/Pictures/SSelection Screen/select")

"SSelection" should be "Selection"

I also got an error for any Pokemon with form names in a Vanilla copy of 18.1, because .fname isn't a defined command for a Pokemon. (I think you might have been using some scripting utilities that might have let you used it? Not sure, though) But that can be fixed easily, I just changed

    name = @pokemon.fName + " " + @pokemon.name

    fSpecies = pbGetFSpeciesFromForm(@pokemon.fSpecies)
    formname = pbGetMessage(MessageTypes::FormNames,fSpecies)
    name = formname + " " + @pokemon.name

Is there anyway to get this to work with 19.1?

[Pokémon Essentials version 19.1]

I did it the way you said but its still not working, it gives me a error message that form = is a undefinded method for nil:nilclass
I needed this Script because I wanted to give the player one of 3 starter pokemon, but this script just works with 4 Pokémon?

If you're only putting in three Pokemon, that might be what's giving you this error, try putting in four and see if that fixes it.

The issue is that I just want three pokémon...

You could always just go through and remove the parts referring to the fourth?

I tried to find those parts referring to the fourth, but I can't find them. :(
