Displaying a selected tokens attributes in chat

So I am running a Pokemon tabletop united game and one of the difficult things about it is remembering all the relevant stats when damage is applied. I was wondering if a macro could be written to display the selected tokens attributes kind of as follows. Piplup ATK: 10 DEF: 11 SPATK: 3 SPDEF: 0 PhysEvade: 1 SpecEvade: 1 SpeedEvade: 1 This would allow me and my players to just click on the token hit the macro and pop out the info we need. Any help would be appreciated. I did search for this for about 2 hours.

Hi, Scott W. Have you checked out the Using a Selected Token with a Macro section of the Wiki yet?
I have and have been having trouble. I'm still getting a good grasp on macros. Just wrote my first nested macro today.

Does this meet your needs? @{selected|character_name} ATK: @{selected|ATK} DEF: @{selected|DEF} SPATK: @{selected|SPATK} SPDEF: @{selected|SPDEF} PhysEvade: @{selected|PhysEvade} SpecEvade: @{selected|SpecEvade} SpeedEvade: @{selected|SpeedEvade}

Also, make sure the token is actually representing the character, otherwise those attributes won't be available.
That certainly does exactly what i need now just to get it into a nice little whispered rollable template. Thank you! You mods rock!

Happy rolling!
/w GM &{template:default} {{name=@{selected|character_name}} {{ATK:=@{selected|ATK}}} {{DEF:=@{selected|DEF}}} {{SPATK:=@{selected|SPATK}}} {{SPDEF:=@{selected|SPDEF}}} {{PhysEvade:=@{selected|PhysEvade}}} {{SpecEvade:=@{selected|SpecEvade}}} {{SpeedEvade:=@{selected|SpeedEvade}}}
Thank you! the only thing i'll have to do is add the total to the end because the PTU sheet has like three spots for each stat.
