Pet Battle Fight Announcer

[zork]

By looking at PetBattleQuality I had the idea to do sth like the Street Fighter "FIGHT" thing.

Concept:


When a pet battle starts you can extract the pet names + quality.

You could display that data on screen.

local pet_quality = {
      [1] = "|cff999999", --gray, poor
      [2] = "|cffffffff", --white, common
      [3] = "|cff009900", --green, uncommon
      [4] = "|cff0099ff", --blue, rare
      [5] = "|cffcc33cc", --purple, epic
      [6] = "|cffff6600", --orange, legendary
    }
     
    local function getPetString(ownerId)
      local string
      for i = 1, C_PetBattles.GetNumPets(ownerId) do
        local pet, quality
        pet = C_PetBattles.GetName(ownerId, i)
        quality = pet_quality[C_PetBattles.GetBreedQuality(ownerId, i)]
        if i > 1 then
          string = string.." + "
        end
        if pet and quality then
          string = string..quality..pet.."|r"
        else
          string = string.."ErrorFindingPet"
        end
      end
      return string
    end
     
    local function init()
      local playerPetString = getPetString(1)
      local enemyPetString = getPetString(2)
      print("READY, SET, FIGHT!!!")
      print(playerPetString.." VS. "..enemyPetString)
    end
     
    local frame = CreateFrame("Frame")
    frame:Hide()
    frame:SetScript("OnEvent", init)
    frame:RegisterEvent("PET_BATTLE_OPENING_START")

Maybe we can even extract the pet ID and use it to display a number of portraits + school of magic.
Pet quality is already in.

Ok there is sth like:

local speciesID, customName, level, xp, maxXp, displayID, name, icon, petType, creatureID, sourceText, description, isWild, canBattle, tradable = C_PetJournal.GetPetInfoByPetID(petID)

Plus there is GetDisplayID(). Not tested but this may return the DisplayID() that could be used in a 3D portrait. Which would be good since that is enough to display: portrait, name, quality.

C_PetBattles.GetDisplayID(ownerId, i) -- This function is not yet documented
C_PetBattles.GetHealth(ownerId, i) -- This function is not yet documented
C_PetBattles.GetIcon(ownerId, i)     -- This function is not yet documented
C_PetBattles.GetLevel(ownerId, i) -- This function is not yet documented

I'm thinking of sth like this:

Under the portrait would be the petname in petquality.
