Finding the scripts for abilities that aren't in Battle_AbilityEffects?

I'm trying to find other abilities so I can learn how they work and try to make my own, but it seems a lot of them are not in the Battle_AbilityEffects script despite being in the game and working.

I've tried to ctrl-f to find a few elsewhere, but end up just finding references to them or parts of them rather than their main block of code. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

For the sake of having an example, Disguise is one I'm looking for and I can only find reference to it in Battle_DamageState and Battle_ItemEffects

So, with some abilities, they have to be split into two or more parts
For example, Sheer Force has to be split into:
  • More damage
  • No additional effect
These cannot be done in one block, and it is a lot simplier to add them into the two sections where they're relevant
If you are looking at making custom abilities off old abilities, your best bet is to see which old abilities match it closely, then search for them, and then work out which lines are useful to help make your new one
Hope this helps!
