If you are using RPG Maker MZ and VisuStella MZ, the following code may or MAY NOT work as this Tips & Tricks is made for RPG Maker MV. VisuStella MZ is NOT responsible if this Tips & Trick does not work because the code base for RPG Maker MV and RPG Maker MZ are different and the code base between Yanfly Engine Plugins and VisuStella MZ is even more drastically different.

  // Get the poison state
  var poisonId = 37;
  // Get the original caster for the Death Nova state
  var caster = target.stateOrigin(deathNovaId);
  // Calculate the damage dealt
  var dmg = caster.mat * 6;
  // Get the dying unit's opponents
  var foes = target.opponentsUnit().aliveMembers();
  // Loop through the foes
  for (var i = 0; i < foes.length; ++i) {
    // Get the currently looped foe
    var foe = foes[i];
    // Check if the foe exists
    if (foe) {
      // Make the foe take damage.
      foe.gainHp(-dmg);
      // Add the poison state to the foe.
      foe.addState(poisonId);
      // Show the damage popup.
      foe.startDamagePopup();
      // Check if the foe is dead
      if (foe.isDead()) {
        // If it is, collapse the foe
        foe.performCollapse();
      }
      // Clear the foe's results
      foe.clearResult();
    }
  }
  // Play an animation on the dying unit
  target.startAnimation(109);
  // Remove the Death Nova state
  target.removeState(deathNovaId);
}
</Custom Apply Effect>

Enjoy!
