Translation:

Developer:
- Added BattleItemScanner, a one-stop-shop for finding, collecting, and consuming battle items for battles.
- New item scanners can be registered via this class, allowing modders to add their own item containers for use in battles, like how Poké Bags and Shulker Boxes can be used. BattleItemScanner.InventoryScanner[b][i] is the class used for this purpose, and it takes various functional interfaces for each of the functions required.
- Added an identifier string to [b][i]BagItemEvent
, for determining the source of the search request. By default, there are two types, normal and end of raid. These identifiers can be found in BagItemEvent.Identifiers.
- BagItemEvent.SelectItem.Pre now has a method to set the item selected. This will be null if virtual items were sent via BagItemEvent.CollectItems - in order for a virtual item to function, it must be set again here. This is to avoid the server just believing what the client is telling it.
- Added a new event SpawnPixelmonEntityForBattleEvent.
- Added PixelmonTradeEvent.Pre, PixelmonTradeEvent.Post for better precise control over the event, adding getters for variables.
- Added NPCTraderEvent.ShowTrade.Pre, NPCTraderEvent.ShowTrade.Post, NPCTraderEvent.AcceptTrade.Pre and NPCTraderEvent.AcceptTrade.Post for improvement on Trader NPC display and handling.
- Added NPCTutorEvent.CollectLearnableMoves.Pre and NPCTutorEvent.CollectLearnableMoves.Post.
- Added TeachMoveEvent.CanLearnMove, TeachMoveEvent.MoveLearnt.Pre and TeachMoveEvent.MoveLearnt.Post.
- Updated PokemonBuilder#copy to properly copy egg status of a Pokémon.
- Added option to prevent the [ESC] key from closing the Dialog screen.
- Added SpawnPixelmonEntityForBattleEvent to decouple battle starting logic from the PixelmonEntity class.
- Cancelling SpawnPixelmonEntityForBattleEvent allows you to start /pokebattle without spawning any entities, throw a Pokéball and start a battle without spawning entities, throw a Pokéball at an NPC and start a battle without spawning entities, start a PvP battle without spawning either player's Pokémon and start a raid battle without spawning any entities.
- Added several duplicate methods which use the Pokémon object or other objects instead of PixelmonEntity.
- Deprecated Pokemon#getPixelmonWrapper, replaced by Pokemon#getPixelmonWrapperFromPlayerEntity.
- Deprecated PartyStorage#getFirstAblePokemon, replaced by PartyStorage#getFirstBattleReadyPokemon().
- Extended BattleQuery#BattleQuery, BattleQueryPlayer#BattleQueryPlayer, PlayerParticipant#PlayerParticipant and PlayerParticipant#initialize.
- Extended RaidPixelmonParticipant#RaidPixelmonParticipant, RaidGovernor#init and RaidSettings#init.
- Extended WildPixelmonParticipant#WildPixelmonParticipant and WildPixelmonParticipant#init.
