Hey everyone, if you've read my previous post you'd know I'm working on a Pokemon game for ti 84 plus CE.

I have it so when the user catches a pokemon it puts it's number in a list (ex. 25 →ʟPKMN) but how can I actually assign that number to a pokemon so I can reference it's stats later?

Thanks for all the help I've been getting btw, the projects gone a long way since I started it.

Are you talking about all the pokemon in the inventory of a player or just a plain list of all the pokemon that exist in the game? Also I'm curious to see your code so far.

Also for future notice, please try to keep related posts in the same thread. No need to have three different threads for the same pokemon game.

I'm going to assume you mean that LPKMN is referring to the user's inventory. A quick solution could be to store Pokemon names and stats in a string or two, using sub( and expr(. Here's an example snippet; the string contains four Pokemon and stats. The program will derive stats and name from a simple number.

Code:

The program will store a Pokemon name in Str1, and a stat in each of A, B, and C. Each Pokeman name+stat is 18 chars long. (Name-13; Stats-each 3)

Also, could you post the code for this game so far?

While it may get extremely hard to manage, you could assign each Pokemon an ID number, and store the name of said pokemon to sub(Str1,13(dim(L1)),13). 1st stat could be stored to LSTAT1 2nd to LSTAT2 so on and so forth. to store the new stat, use S->LSTAT1(dim(LSTAT+1)). for inventory, you could then store the pokemon the player has just by its ID, using sub(Str1,13(ID),13), where ID is the Pokemon's ID to recall the Pokemon's Stats.

In the end, it would look something like this:


Code:

Hey everyone I haven't had much time to work on Pokemon since I made this topic but I'll be posting the code soon and I'm hoping to finish this project this summer. Thanks for the help, feel free to comment tips and whatnot.
