Could someone update the BW Speech Bubble plugin to fix the bubble appearing at the top during evolution? Or fix the v21.1 port for the BW Pokedex to fix this error when catching a Pokemon?

Has anyone made any trainer battlers/overworld sprites for the trainer classes in Colosseum/XD? You know, ones like the Street Performer, Casual Dude, Bodybuilders, etc? Miror B would be a nice bonus too but for now I'm focusing on the generic ones. I'm really hoping to find them, or at least someone willing to make them. Anyone willing, please DM me.

As I asked in Generation 8 Pack for Essentials v20.1 v1.0.3, i'd like to ask if someone is able to make Overworld Sprites for the Megas and Gigamax out of the works of:
Also if someone is able to make follower sprites for pokémon with in-battle forms like castform or cherrim.
And gotta say that sprites are everything: some are battle sprites, some are overworld sprites.
I don't know if you still need these sprites, but I recently compiled these packs + some of the indigo disk and teal mask if you need them

I have spent 3 days looking for Gen 3 style overworld player and back sprites of all of the rivals and other generations MCs.

I don't expect to find them all from a single source, but if anyone can lead me to where I can find them, or make them, I would appreciate it.

I want some Z-move animations.
I am using gen 8 move animation project but some Z-move animations are missing, and the author won't update the project anymore.
Edit: gen 9 move animation project has come out so I may wait for that.

I have a request.
Request: Make a script that player gets items for giving out the pokedex.

Something like how it's done in Scarlet & Violet. I think you get things for every 10 new pokedex entries. If it's not something that can be done then okay. I just thought that I would make the request.

Not super helpful, as I don't know if I'm going to move forward with reworking it to be a releasable plugin, but created this for my own game. Someone else also asked if I could release it publicly, so once I have some time to sit down and take a look at my cobbled mess, I may release it.

Otherwise, if someone else takes time to do it themselves...

It's not that I don't want to share, it's that the way I coded it isn't optimized for a plugin 😅

I know it's a super ultra mega hyper longshot, but I have a request if somebody is willing to help.

See, there's a super outdated script made for v16.3 that's just perfect for my game, but I'm using, you guessed, v21.1.
I'm planing to use this achievement system with grids and pictures to simulate a stamp album, similar to the photo album of HGSS, as my game revolves around traveling across the region and collecting them.

I even tried using this guide made by TechSkylander, but to no sucess. It could even be a simple thing, but I'm a ruby illiterate, so who knows.
I was switching deprecated stuff as the error screen told me to do and all that jazz, but kept hitting wall after wall. Would it be possible to convert this script to v21.1?

I don't think I can post a link to the script page, so I'll just paste the code here:

Hi yall!

It's a long stretch, but can someone help me figure out how to, without mods/plugins, make enemy wild pokemon mega evolve during boss encounter? Alternatively to ensure that in triple battle format (using it to have the boss encounter) the pokemon mega evolves and fully heals once brought down to 10% hp?

I remember this thread had lot of useful intel but it is sadly inaccesible now https://reliccastle.com/threads/4989/ - doesn't seem to be archived.

I'm hoping to have that species be able to mega evolve once they know specific move.

IIRC solution was to make effectively berry item that combined Focus Sash with Max Heal effects, + triggered form change (from base to mega). But dunno how effective that'd be if player was able to, say, two-shot the base form.

Hi!

I'm struggling a lot for my fangame (I can't even open Essentials due to my desktop having an admin account), but I do have a few script requests:
The ability to choose your own starter after confirming your player choice before actually starting the game
  • Gimmicks now activate through a Synergy Ring
  • Travelling companions
  • Custom variants - as well as Mega, Gigantamax, and Terastal forms - for hundreds of Pokémon
  • Brand-new Fakemon
  • The ability to Devolve
  • Temporary Evolution during a battle
  • Menu to view Evolution requirements and Evolve

Thank you for your help, if you're willing to accept!

Any old RC link you have? just replace the website name and you're good. So the same address but fresh and live is: https://eeveeexpo.com/threads/4989/

I hope you can get your desktop working soon! Once you get into Essentials, you'll find a few of these are already possible, even without custom scripts. Like the starter choice in the opening? That's all you, basic stuff. Travelling companions? I think you'll be interested in the Partner Trainers feature. Custom variants and forms? New Fakemon? There's already a lot of resources to check out and pick your faves.
