Animations/Images before activating special skills

[Detectivegame]

I am using Yanfly's Ace Core Engine (https://yanflychannel.wordpress.com/rmvxa/core-scripts/ace-core-engine/) and Galv's Animated battlers (http://galvs-scripts.com/2013/05/04/animated-battlers/)

I was wondering if I can have this happen in my game: 

When a certain skill is selected, a short animation occurs showing the character preparing an attack.  I imagine the image sliding from the right, waiting on screen for a few seconds, and sliding to the left.  The animations of the battlers should be paused while this pre-skill animation plays out.

I know how to make the images, I just need a script to make this process easier.  Thanks!

BONUS: Maybe allow animations to play out on top of the image?

Reference is from tales of vesperia, I kinda imagine it to look like that.

You can try this

Which allows you to, say, run a common event before a skill is executed


I don't know whether it will be compatible.
