-Battles begin with the phrase "*<ENEMY>* wants to battle!" and end with "*<ENEMY>* was defeated!" This makes sense if "*<ENEMY>*" is something like "YOUNGSTER JOEY", but it's ungrammatical for plural trainers like "TWINS AMY & MAY".

-Gen 3 addressed this issue by changing the phrases to "*<ENEMY>* would like to battle!" and "Player defeated *<ENEMY>*!" And then Gen 4 changed the starting phrase to "You are challenged by *<ENEMY>*!" But some people don't like the politeness of Gen 3, or the passive voice of Gen 4. (\*ahem\*) Plus they're both more verbose than the original Gen 2 phrases, which really matters when the textboxes are so small, and the "*<ENEMY>*" name can take up an entire line (like "MYSTICALMAN EUSINE").

-The alternative is to use the correct grammar for plural trainers: "*<ENEMY>* **want** to battle!" and "*<ENEMY>* **were** defeated!" This is fairly simple to implement. If you've worked with event scripts before but not assembly code, this is a good feature to start with.
