Hi, I'm new to rom hacking and I was just wondering:
Is there a way to change the IVs and EVs of other trainer's pokemon? I experimented a bit with trainer editors and found that hopeless trainer editor can change the IVs of the opponent's pokemon. But there is only one problem - the IVs of all the stats are the same. And I didn't find anything about changing the EVs. What I'm essentially asking is how to customize the trainer pokemon's stats without changing the level.
I have an idea for a hack where the trainers battle more competitively, especially the gym leaders, elite four, champion and the villainous team. Making the usual random trainers on the routes more difficult would be nice as well. I know that it's impossible for a programmed trainer to battle competitively like normal humans but at least making them half as decent would be a great step as we can give them competitive moves and items. I have also seen some trainers battling almost competitively in other hacks who have very high stats and AI.
Another thing - how to change the AI of trainers. I didn't see any difference when I changed it in trainer editors except that it change the IVs as I mentioned before.
Thanks in advance!
