Thank you. There are still a couple flaws I'd like to work out but I tried to plan for everything when it came to trading with files and what someone could possibly do with it. If I missed anything, please let me know.
Also, any issues please let me know. I tested trading between different games between v20 and v21 without issues but that doesn't mean they might not exist. It was recommended adding some kind of trainer verification, either a password or matching the trainer id before allowing the trade so I might add that option later, as well as adding compatibility with my trading charm for those who want it.(because it wouldn't much make sense for me to make a trading plugin without compatibility with a trading charm) I'm going to rework parts of the code while I'm adding these changes and make it a little prettier. This release I tried to focus on maximum readability so people could have an easier time following along with what was happening, thus the numerous small methods instead of 3 big ones.

Could you just clarify exactly how this is used in-game? Perhaps with a screenshot of an example event, please? I think I'm missing something when I try to implement it since I'm getting thrown crashes when I try to call the method.
