To be fair, Champions isn't currently the gold standard of functional mechanics as of now. It's riddled with bugs. I wouldnt trust this interaction outright unless this is how Unseen Fist also works in SV.

But that is actually part of description in Champions.

Yep yesterday I also checked that myself. I think "Everything aside from the target's protective effects is still triggered" pretty much is intending what I previously wrote.

Hi. After applying the latest update, I keep fail to launch the game and this error message pops up:

[Pokémon Essentials version 21.1] [v21.1 Hotfixes 1.0.9]
Exception: RuntimeError
Message: Section name 'VENUSAUR_1' is used twice.

I'm wondering if I'm the only one who's getting this error. Could this be just a compatibility issue with other resources I've downloaded?

(Edit)
Re-installing another resource ("Animated Pokemon System" to be specific) after installing the update fixed the issue. I'm new to this and didn't realized in what order you install the resources can have big impact like this. I'll leave this post in case anyone experience the same issue as me.

Just installed the newest version of the plugin in a blank project and I've been getting this error message:


The only plugins currently in the project are the 21.1 Hotfixes and this one, if it helps.
Thanks for the attention.

As He said, You should replace these lines with these in the battle_ai.rb in his plugin, since he missed a comma.

Sorry, I missed a comma on line 20. I’ll reupload the corrected file later this weekend.
