Whenever I reach a certain point in my game, it gives an error when I print out a class object, even though it has a __str__ function. I’m not sure why this is happening.

Steps to recreate the bug: Input your username, select your Pokémon and type “find”. Then type “fight”.
Identation is wrong:

good catch but it still doesn’t change the output 
I noticed something:
blastoise = Pokemon("blastoise",268,144,[WATER_PULSE, AQUA_TAIL, HYDRO_PUMP, SKULL_BASH],['water'])
def Caterpie():
hp = 200
speed = 85
moveset = [TACKLE, BUG_BITE]
type = ['bug']
Starting from Caterpie, your functions are being instantiated as Pokemon objects. The Pokemon class has a __str__ method but your functions that represent each Pokemon do not.
You should instantiated them as Pokemon objects:
Caterpie = Pokemon("Caterpie", 200, 85, [TACKLE, BUG_BITE], ['bug'])
Don’t know why you change them mid-way though

they were all originally functions but I converted them to class objects – just haven’t finished converting all of them. That’s not the problem though cause they aren’t in the list that allows them to be chosen
I tried to reacreate the steps and the fight option is working. Can you show the error you are getting?
Oh, that explains.
If you try to concatenate a string with a non-string (like an instance of a class), you’ll get a TypeError .
Convert starter to string and you are good to go.
print(pale + str(starter) + white + " go!")

Do the same thing for the other ones too.
I’ve never had to o that before, but I guess somethings different this time around! Anyways, thanks for the help with everything!
In Python, the + operator is used for concatenating strings.
In your case starter is a object not a string.
