Chapter 12: Putting It Together

We're close to being done with our random Pokemon generator! Let's do a few changes to the contract to create a random Pokemon.

Put it to the test

1. The maximum HP of any Pokemon should be less than 1000. Define a define constant named HP_LIMIT equal to 1000.

2. Remove the _dna and _HP arguments from the _createPokemon function declaration.

3. Inside _createPokemon, create a uint256 variable randomDNA. Call the function _generateRandomDNA using the self environment variable and pass the _name argument. Set the result equal to randomDNA.

4. Inside _createPokemon, create a uint256 variable randomHP. Set its value equal to randomDNA modulus (%) HP_LIMIT.

5. Inside _createPokemon, create a variable newPokemon of Pokemon type. Use the _name argument, randomDNA, randomHP to define the newPokemon.

6. Inside _createPokemon, populate pokemonList using the key totalPokemonCount and value as newPokemon. Remember to use self environment variable to access the storage variables.

7. Modify the _createPokemon function declaration so that it returns a Pokemon.

8. At the end of the _createPokemon function, return newPokemon.
