Trigger Extensions: You may extend these keys with a species ID or a type ID to specify that they should only trigger when Mega Evolving or Primal Reverting a specific species, or species of a specific type. For example, <mark style="background-color:purple;">"BeforeMegaEvolution\_MAWILE"</mark> would trigger only when a Mawile is about to Mega Evolve, where <mark style="background-color:purple;">"AfterPrimalReversion\_WATER"</mark> would trigger only after a Water-type has Primal Reverted.
