Trainer battles and the text they use

[0x3DD3CE]

Hey, I was recently adding some trainers where I encountered a dead end; I don't know how the trainer battles point to the text found in a/0/0/2 file 382. Sure I could add some text after those 2000+ lines but how does the battle point to the text?

BTW how do you make a trainer have a shiny Pokemon? Is there a certain script?

 

Thanks in advance!

I’ve been trying to work this out for a few weeks - there doesn’t seem to be a set pattern.

Struggled the find the answers when i scrparse.lua a single trainer battle so I did the approach you mentioned - copied and pasted all the text from a002 381 into Notepad ++.

Used a playthrough video playlist on YouTube to work out which NPC said what , then CTRL + F to find the starting words to find it quickly .

Trying to add a new trainer then new likes to 381 however doesn’t work - there must be some sort of pointer but I haven’t worked out where it is sorry.

As for shiny trainer Pokemon , I’m not sure if that is possible to set in BWTE 2 - 1000 sorry . 

Even though I would like to give Lance his red Gyarados !
