You can kinda do whatever you want. Depends how you want to approach it. Some things would be easier to pull off than others.

If you mean just setting a damage gate at 1 HP and then fully restoring the Pokemon's HP to begin phase 2, then sure. If you mean having new opponents join the battle mid-fight, then you'll need the SOS add-on for that.

Perfect. It was the first one, by the way.
 
Is there not a way for the trainer to appear on screen when a text is played out?

I also wanted to add.. ive been trying the MBD and nothing happens...

AleshaStart = {
"RoundStartCommand_1" => {
"text_A" => "ALESHA: I know this is your first gym fight but I'm not going easy on you. So slow down there child.",
"playAnim" => [:STICKYWEB, :Self, :Self],
"playSE" => "Anim/PRSFX- Sticky Web",
"text_B" => "Sticky webs were placed at your feet...",
"text_c" => "No need to cut this battle short.",
}
}
end

"setBattleRule("midbattleScript", :AleshaStart)"

That's what "speech" is for. The "text" command is just for normal battle text. This is covered in the guide.

You need an extension at the end of "RoundStartCommand_1" to signify who is activating this trigger. In this case, I assume you want "_foe". The trigger won't do anything otherwise.

Just make a new Pokemon object for each party member and edit its values from there. This isn't really a plugin thing, there's plenty of examples in Essentials' default maps that already demonstrate this.

Im sorry... im not sure i understand
 
Aight, I've been struggling with this for a week now so I might as well ask. I've been trying to utilise the choice key to command stat raises, and I got it working, but for only one battler, and it's a double battle. I've tried many different structures to try and get it to raise 2 at the same time, but it either raises one battler, or none at all. If anyone could help, that'd be greatly appreciated!

Here's the script:
setBattleRule("midbattleScript", {
"RoundEnd_1_foe" => {
"setChoices" => [:reason, 2, {
"We got lost?" => "What?! That's total Tauros!",
"We're here to beat you." => "H-Huh? You two have got some nerve, then."
}],
"setSpeaker" => "LUXIO",
"editWindow" => "Luxio",
"speech" => ["Hey!", "What are you two doing up here?!", :Choices]
},
"ChoiceRight_reason" => {
"setBattler" => [:Opposing, :OpposingAlly],
"battlerStats" => [:SPEED, 2]
},
"ChoiceWrong_reason" => {
"setBattler" => [:Self, :Ally],
"battlerStats" => [:DEFENSE, 1]
},
"BeforeLastSwitchIn" => {
"setSpeaker" => "LUXIO",
"speech" => "You lot are too weak!",
"playSE" => "shout",
"editWindow" => ["Luxio", "shout"],
"speech" => "GET OUT OF MY WAY!"
},
"LastUserHPHalf" => {
"setSpeaker" => "LUXRAY",
"playSE" => "shout",
"playCry" => :LUXRAY,
"editWindow" => ["Luxray", "shout"],
"speech" => ["THATS ENOUGH!", "QUIT ALL THIS FIGHTING!"],
"endBattle" => 1
}
})

All of the "battler" command keys only affect a single battler at a time. You can't cheat it by setting it as an array of battlers. If you do, it won't accept the inputted data and just assume you're trying to target the first available target. If you want it to affect multiple battlers, you'll just have to manually raise the stats of each desired battler one at a time using key extensions.

For example:
Ruby:
Expand Collapse Copy 
"ChoiceRight_reason" => {
  "setBattler_A"   => :Opposing,
  "battlerStats_A" => [:SPEED, 2],
  "setBattler_B"   => :OpposingAlly,
  "battlerStats_B" => [:SPEED, 2]
},

Knew I was missing something, didn't check through extensions well enough to see the example, my dumbahh x_x Thank you for the help, I'm having so much fun figuring out the system, and of course, the freedom of creativity I can utilise with it is insane, so also thank you for making it!

(I did try doing it separately without using the letter extensions, but I'm pretty sure that actually ended up boosting no stats, which led me down a very long, STUBBORN road of trying to figure it out, till I eventually caved and has to ask for help)
 
Hello, I'm struggling trying to get trainers to terastalize their pokemon during a Double Battle. Single battles that involve terastalization work though.
Just Double battles I'm struggling with.

I have looked over the Deluxe Battle Kit Tutorial website and made sure to check the right PBS files (and [003]MidbattleScripts Module) for any errors.
So far nothing is wrong.
Could it be that it has something to do when setbattlerule("double") is called?

99% of the script works, pretty much anything I set that doesn't involve terastalizing works during the battle. no game crashes either.
Anyways, here is the mid battle script example that i created for the trainer:
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Battle vs Lacey.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BATTLE_LACEY = {
"RoundStartCommand_foe" => {
"speech" => ["I'll be facing you with my usual party as a member of the Elite Four."]
},
"UserMoveEffective_foe" => {
"speech" => ["It's a rock-solid stratregy to go after weaknesses...", "which is why I'll be turning it right back at you!"]
},
"UserDealtCriticalHit" => {
"speech" => [:Opposing, "Why did you have to land that kind of hit? Now that's just not right!"]
},
"BeforeTerastallize_foe" => {
"speech" => ["All eyes on our great big Terastal heart! Time to get even cuter and cuter!"]
},
"BeforeTeraMove_foe" => {
"speech" => ["Get'em, Excadrill! Let's send them flying with your adorable destructive force!"]
},
"LastUserHPHalf_foe" => {
"speech" => ["No point in letting this drag on... Behold, the power to overwhelm everything!"]
},

}
end

What exactly are you trying to make happen? You say you're trying to make this trainer Terastallize, but nothing in your script is forcing this to occur. It seems like you're just conpletely relying on the AI to do so, which isn't particularly reliable. It's likely that the trainer isnt Terastallizing simply because they don't think it's worth Terastallizing.

Turn on battle logging and see what the AI is thinking. It should display their Tera logic.

Ok so I readjusted the script to force the terastallization of a specific pokemon, however it looks like i found the real problem.
I turned on battle logging and tested different revisions of my script for a while, and
I discovered that the trainer will ONLY terastallize if the ace pokemon is the last one remaining (in double battles).
No terastallizing happened when the ace pokemon was battling alongside another pokemon.

My goal is to get the trainer to terastallize their Ace pokemon (in a double battle) once it's out and after they select a
move regardless how many pokemon are remaining on the trainer's team.
This is the revised script (it only works if the ace pokemon is the last one remaining):

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Battle vs Lacey.
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BATTLE_LACEY = {
"RoundStartCommand_foe" => {
"speech" => ["I'll be facing you with my usual party as a member of the Elite Four."]

},
"UserDealtCriticalHit" => {
"speech" => [:Opposing, "Why did you have to land that kind of hit? Now that's just not right!"]
},
"AfterLastSwitchIn_EXCADRILL" => {
"Terastallize" => [:true]

Ah, I see. Yeah, that's how the AI works. It will only Terastallize when its down to its final Pokemon, but in a double battle with a single trainer they're never technically down to their final Pokemon until only one is left on the field.

Yeah. It's something I would really like to happen in select battles.

I'll keep trying to find an alternative. Though I'm not too god with hardcoding (I feel like that might be the only way)

Gotcha. It seems like this'll happen if you don't have the Terastallization plugin installed. Surprised nobody's mentioned it before, because this is actually a very old bug.

Anyway, it should be fixed now.
 
Every time I use item on my pokemon this happens.
