So earlier I was playing reborn and I decided an Azumarill with aqua jet and belly drum (both egg moves) would be perfect for my rain dance team. My plan was first to do
female marill + male golduck@aquajet = female marill@aquajet, then do
female marill@aquajet + male poliwag@bellydrum, which should've given me a marill with aquajet and bellydrum.
Instead, only the male poliwag was able to pass on the its egg move. After doing some googling on the rpg maker and pokemon essentials, I learned that pokemon essentials hasn't been updated for gen six (and ame+devs must have added all the new pokes and fairy types themselves. BTW, you guys totally rock for that! ). Buuuut, the old gen V breeding mechanics weren't updated along with it, which meant no super OP Azumarill breeding for me .
Luckily for me (and unluckily for the rest of the trainers in my reborn save) I downloaded Gemini and fiddled around with it until I found the scrips.rxdata and the pokemonDayCare scripts within that. To make female pokes able to pass on moves, you only have to add a few lines into it.
Specifically I added this
pbRgssOpen("Data/eggEmerald.dat","rb"){|f|
f.pos=(babyspecies-1)*8
offset=f.fgetdw
length=f.fgetdw
if length>0
f.pos=offset
i=0; loop do break unless i<length
atk=f.fgetw
moves.push(atk) if mother.knowsMove?(atk)
i+=1
end
end
right underneath where this is.
# Inheriting Egg Moves
pbRgssOpen("Data/eggEmerald.dat","rb"){|f|
f.pos=(babyspecies-1)*8
offset=f.fgetdw
length=f.fgetdw
if length>0
f.pos=offset
i=0; loop do break unless i<length
atk=f.fgetw
moves.push(atk) if father.knowsMove?(atk)
i+=1
end
end
Literally all I did was change "father.knowsMove?(atk)" to "mother.knowsMove?(atk)" and add it below the father.knowsMove part. Tested it, and it works with zero errors (the first couple of times I fiddled with it, it gave me a could not read script error on launch). Tested it, and the result is wonderfully op :
Sorry about the long post just to say all that, but what I'm getting at, is if that part of the it was so simple, then fully updating the breeding mechanics to gen VI to match the rest of the game shouldn't be too hard ..... Right?
