+A translation may also set `"language": true` in the manifest. That is the
+one claim online play acts on: an install running nothing but verified
+translations may take an ONLINE MATCH or a TOURNAMENT instead of being
+asked to restart vanilla. The claim is checked, not taken -- the mod
+qualifies only if every record it writes lands in `text`, `strings` or
+`font`, it wraps no hook, subscribes to no event and requests no
+permission. Anything else and it is an ordinary content mod that happens to
+ship text.
+
+### 4. `games` (and the legacy `gen2compat`)
+
+Pokemon Gold is Gen 2, and it runs its own battle engine, overworld, script
+VM and save format. The mod API is shared across both generations (same hook
+names, same event names, same registry names) but Gold cannot serve all of it
+yet, so Gen 2 is opt-in. Say which games the mod is for:
+
+```json
+"games": ["gen1", "gen2"]
+```
+
+Each entry is a version id (`"red"`, `"blue"`, `"yellow"`, `"gold"`), a
+generation (`"gen1"`, `"gen2"`) or `"all"`;
+`src/mods/ModTargets.lua` resolves them off `GameVersion.ORDER` so nothing
+restates the game list. `python3 tools/modkit.py scaffold my_mod --games
+gen1,gen2` writes the key for you. The mod still installs to one directory,
+`mods/<id>/`, shared by every game -- targeting is declared, never filed.
+
+Absent means Gen 1 only, which is what every mod written before the key existed
+was tested as. `"gen2compat": true` is the legacy spelling, still accepted and
+purely additive (it *adds* the Gen 2 games), so no manifest can lose a game it
+already ran on. On a Gold boot a mod claiming no Gen 2 game is not loaded at
+all: the manager lists it as `ENABLED (NOT THIS GAME)` and says why, because a
+mod that half-applies reads as a broken mod. Claim Gen 2 once you have actually
+run your mod on Gold.
+
+Every token is enforced, per game: the loader gates on the same
+`ModTargets.supports` answer both mod surfaces draw, so `"games": ["blue"]`
+really does not load on Red and the skip line is the launcher's line, `For
+Blue, not Red`, and `"games": ["gold"]` alone does not load on Red either. A
+manifest with neither key still covers every Gen 1 game, so nothing written
+before the key existed changes behavior; list both generations or say `"all"`
+when you mean everywhere.
+
+`docs/mod-api-gen2-compat.md` is the compatibility matrix: what works on Gold
+today (40 of the 46 registries, 40 event and 43 hook names shared with Gen 1,
+and 24 Gen 2-only ones), which registries have no Gen 2 home and drop their
+writes with a report, and which hooks and events are still to come.
+`docs/preparing-your-mod-for-gen2.md` is the step-by-step migration guide for a
+Gen 1 mod, and it is the one to start from.
+
+Two consequences worth knowing before you claim Gen 2.
+
+**Dependencies are contagious.** A mod whose hard dependency does not run here
+is left out too, with the dependency's own wording (`depends on X, which does
+not run here (For Blue, not Red)`). It is reported as a skip, not as a failure,
+and neither mod lands on the boot error list, but the mod does not run, so
+every hard dependency has to cover the same games.
+
+**The player can override you.** The claim is yours, and a mod written before
+the key existed can never carry one, so the manager's detail pane offers
+`TRY HERE ANYWAY` for any mod that does not claim the game being played. It
+persists per game in `options.modsGen2[id][version]` and takes effect on the
+next boot; forcing a mod onto Red does not force it onto Gold. A forced mod
+loads normally and keeps a note saying its author never verified it here.
+
+**Prefer the API on Gold, but the Gen 1 names still work.** Gen 2 is a
+parallel module tree behind `src/core/Game2.lua`. In new code take the live
+game from `mod.game` (or the `game.ready` payload, or any `ui.*` hook's first
+argument) and the world from `mod.world`; both resolve per generation, and
+neither needs `engine_internals`.
+
+For the mods written before Gold existed, a require made from a mod's own file
+is answered on a Gold boot by an adapter presenting the Gen 1 API over Gen 2
+internals. Fifteen names are served -- `src.core.Game`,
+`src.world.OverworldController`, `src.world.Map`, `src.world.NPC`,
+`src.world.Collision`, `src.world.WorldAPI`, `src.world.PikachuFollower`,
+`src.world.FieldDefaults`, `src.pokemon.Boxes`, `src.script.ScriptRunner`,
+`src.ui.PartyMenu`, `src.ui.StartMenu`, `src.ui.OptionsMenu`, `src.ui.BoxMenu`
+and `src.battle.BattleState`. `src/mods/Gen2Compat.lua` is the full table and
+publishes what it covers through `Gen2Compat.coverage(name)`, whose members are
+`backed`, `warned` or `absent`. A name with no adapter (`src.script.Commands`,
+`src.ui.OptionRows`) is reported against the mod that required it, and a member
+an adapter cannot back is absent or logs once rather than answering wrongly.
+
+Things no adapter can fix, all mod-side: a hardcoded version allow-list
+(`GameVersion.get() == "red" or ...`) excludes you from Gold by construction;
+Gold's builtin screen ids carry a `Gen2` prefix, so a string match on
+`"BoxMenu"` matches nothing there; a write to a field on a live Gen 2 menu
+instance is inert; and `map.warpAt` is a table on Gen 1 and a method on Gold,
+so indexing it raises. Each has a route that works on both generations, in
+`docs/preparing-your-mod-for-gen2.md`.
+
+Check it statically, then load it headless:
+
+```sh
+python3 tools/modkit.py gen2check mods/my_mod
+```
+
+```lua
+local run = T.sdk.loadMod("mods/my_mod", { generation = 2 })
+T.eq(run.mod and run.mod.state, "loaded",
+  "runs on gen 2: " .. tostring(run.mod and run.mod.skipReason))
+T.eq(#run.errors, 0, "and loads with no boot errors")
+```
+
+Assert the state, not only the error count: a gate skip is deliberately not an
+error, so `#run.errors == 0` passes for a mod that never ran a line.
+
+`gen2check` answers `will load`, `will load but degrade` or `will not work`,
+with a `MK4xx` finding per site and an `unresolved:` note, with a file and a
+line, for every reach a static scan could not follow. Neither substitutes for a
+real Gold boot.

+# Gold port: what is still open after the 2026-08-09 asm parity runs
+
+Two multi-agent runs diffed the Gold port against the `pokegold` disassembly
+(`../pokegold`) and fixed what diverged. Round 1 confirmed 51 defects across 14
+paired clusters; round 2 confirmed 41 more across 13, including one crash. A
+third round (2026-08-10) closed the mod-API boundary: see "The 2026-08-10
+mod-API round" below for what that opened and closed.
+
+Every tier is green at the end of all three: `run_engine` 131/131, `run_tests`
+ALL TESTS PASSED, `run_modkit` 6/6, `run_save_editor_tests` 650/0,
+`run_link_tests` ALL PASSED.
+
+This file records only what is NOT done, so nobody re-derives it. It is a
+working handoff doc in the shape of `KANTO-CONTINUE.md`, not user documentation.
+
+## Do this first or none of it is visible
+
+**Re-import the Gold cache.** Seven fixes live in the extractor and the manifest
+tool, so they do nothing until the ROM is re-imported. This was verified still
+outstanding on 2026-08-10: the default identity's
+`gold/data/generated/menu_gfx.lua` has no `trainerPics` key at all, so a trainer
+battle still opens on the mon rather than the trainer even though the Lua half
+is fixed and correct.
+
+- trainer frontpics (`TrainerPicPointers` walk in `extractMenuGfx`), which is
+  the missing trainer intro image at the start of a trainer battle. The Lua
+  side is now right and re-import is the ONLY thing left: `Trainers.lookup`
+  returns a numeric `class` (36) beside a `classId` (`BUG_CATCHER`), and both
+  `menu_gfx.trainerPics` and `palettes.trainers` are keyed by the constant, so
+  the lookup had to move to `classId`. On a cache that carries the pics the
+  frontpic renders in the class's own palette.
+- egg assets: `battle/front/egg.png` and `menu/egg_hatch.png`, feeding the
+  hatch cutscene and the summary screen's egg page. A fallback landed in the
+  meantime (`ICON_EGG` frame 0, which resolves to a real 16x16 frame), so the
+  egg page draws SOMETHING on a stale cache; `tools/rom_manifest_gold.json`
+  carries `EggPic` at `[20, 31363]` and that stream decompresses to exactly 400
+  bytes (a 5x5-tile pic), so a fresh import takes the real path.
+- the Pokegear phone icon. `_LoadFontsExtra` (`engine/gfx/load_font.asm:8-15`)
+  puts `FontsExtra_SolidBlackAndUpArrowGFX` at `$60`/`$61` and
+  `PokegearPhoneIconGFX` at `$62`, ON TOP of `FontExtra`'s BOLD_A/B/C.
+  `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua:342-356` reads `FontExtra` straight in and
+  then blits only `Frames` over `$79-$7E`, so `$62` is still a bold "C" -- which
+  is what the new caller box draws where the telephone glyph belongs. Fix is two
+  files: add the two GFX symbols to `tools/rom_manifest_gold.json`, then blit
+  them at `$60`/`$61`/`$62` in the loop that already handles `Frames`.
+- `PREDEFPAL_UNOWN_PUZZLE = 76`, which is why the Ruins of Alph puzzle rendered
+  grayscale instead of brown
+- the tilemap pad `0x7f -> 0x4f` in `readTilemapRLE` / `readFlatTilemap`
+- held-item icons (`HeldItemIcons` in the manifest, `out.heldItem` in
+  `extractIcons`), which is the held-item marker in the party menu
+- the NPC-trade rows' `item` field, which is what made the Violet City Onix's
+  Bitter Berry print as "83"
+
+## Open: real unknowns, each needs a cache and a driver run
+
+1. **Magnet train renders a blank field.** Pushing `World:magnetTrain` directly
+   shows nothing for 90+ frames (see shot `03-magnet-train.png`). The screen's
+   surround is correct now; what was never investigated is whether
+   `drawBackground` needs setup that the direct push skips. This cannot be
+   settled by reading source.
+
+2. **The NPC that introduces Unown never appears.** Round 1 could not produce a
+   port ref that diverges from the asm, so it is filed `cannot_locate`, not
+   fixed. The cart chain is: solve a chamber puzzle, then
+   `setmapscene RUINS_OF_ALPH_INNER_CHAMBER, SCENE_RUINSOFALPHINNERCHAMBER_STRANGE_PRESENCE`
+   from `maps/RuinsOfAlphKabutoChamber.asm`. Walk that chain live rather than
+   statically: the static read came back clean twice.
+
+3. **Two pic sites still resolve an Unown off the species.**
+   `src/ui/gen2/PhotoStudio.lua:102` and `src/ui/gen2/EvolutionAnim.lua:460` use
+   `def.spriteFront` without going through `Unown.formSprite`. For EvolutionAnim
+   this is almost certainly dead (Unown does not evolve). For PhotoStudio it is
+   genuinely unclear: the cart's `engine/events/print_photo.asm` does not call
+   `GetUnownLetter` at all, so the port may already match. Check before changing.
+
+4. **Unown dex registration on obtain paths.** `engine/pokemon/evolve.asm:310`
+   runs `GetUnownLetter` then `callfar UpdateUnownDex` after
+   `SetSeenAndCaughtMon`, guarded by `cp UNOWN`. That is dex bookkeeping, not
+   rendering, and it was never audited across every path that gives the player a
+   mon. `GetUnownLetter` has 20 call sites on the cart; the port covers the pic
+   ones.
+
+## The 2026-08-10 mod-API round
+
+Six lanes closed the Gen 1 / Gen 2 mod-API boundary and a batch of reported
+gameplay bugs. What that round **closed**, so nobody re-opens it:
+
+- Fifteen seams that had a Gen 2 site but no entry in the parity gate are now
+  listed and asserted: the four `intro.oak_speech.*` events plus the
+  `intro.oak_speech.build` hook, `battle.overlay`,
+  `battle.low_health_alarm`, `battle.catch_exp`, `pokemon.sprite`,
+  `input.step`, `input.pointer`, `render.zones`, `render.compose`,
+  `render.letterbox`, `render.hud`. Five more (`intro.boot.*`) are listed as
+  Gen 2-only. `tests/engine/gate_gen2_mod_api.lua` is 893/893.
+- Two registries un-gated on Gold after their consumer landed:
+  `battle_sprite_scales` (`src/ui/gen2/BattleState.lua:imageScale`) and
+  `render_pipelines` (`src/core/Game2.lua:load` installs
+  `src/render/Pipelines.lua` on the merged dataset after `mods:load`). Both
+  keep the SHARED Gen 1 target, so one mod record serves both games. 40 of the
+  46 registries are now available on Gold.
+- `hook:render.zones` came off the `gate_meta_coverage.lua` DEBT ledger, which
+  is now four entries, all M7/M12 link and give-mon seams.
+
+What that round **left open**, each verified on 2026-08-10:
+
+1. **`render_pipelines`' `drawWorld` half is inert on Gold.** Gold's overworld
+   draws straight to the window rather than into a canvas the way
+   `src/world/OverworldController.lua` hands one to `Pipelines.drawWorld`, so a
+   drawWorld-only pipeline renders nothing. It is not left switched on
+   pretending: `Game2:load` retires a restored level for one and re-applies
+   Tilt from the option the exclusion just cleared, leaving
+   `options.pipelines` untouched so the mode returns the day Gold grows a world
+   canvas. Related: `Pipelines.rows` is read only from
+   `src/ui/OptionsMenu.lua`, so a pipeline on Gold has a hotkey and no OPTION
+   row.
+
+2. **`transitions` stays gated and should.** `src/ui/gen2/BattleTransition.lua`
+   keys `STYLES` as a boolean SET of the four cart wipes (`spin`, `speckle`,
+   `zoom`, `sine`), not the `{ frames, draw, sound, flash }` record the
+   registry carries, and there is no styleDef lookup a mod id could reach --
+   a registered style would fail the membership test and fall back to vanilla.
+   Un-gating it before that changes would be the silent no-op the routing table
+   exists to prevent. Same for `rulesets`, `field`, `text_pointers`,
+   `link_fields` and `map_scripts`; `docs/mod-api-gen2-compat.md` carries the
+   per-registry reason.
+
+3. **`src/core/Game2.lua:joystickremoved` is half of Gen 1's.**
+   `src/core/Game.lua:867` does `self:recoverInput("joystickremoved", joystick)`
+   AND `TouchControls:joystickremoved()`; Game2 does only the pad half, so a
+   controller unplugged mid-hold leaves Gold's Input state stranded and a held
+   direction walks forever. It was a total noop before, so this is not a
+   regression -- it is a seam finished halfway. One line.
+
+4. **`Game2` noops five joystick callbacks.** `joystickpressed`,
+   `joystickreleased`, `joystickaxis`, `joystickhat` and `joystickadded` are
+   assigned `noop`, so a stick with no SDL game-controller-database entry
+   reaches neither Input nor `GamepadMap.RAW_BUTTON_BINDINGS` on Gold. Gen 1
+   handles all four (`src/core/Game.lua:764-797`). A DualSense is
+   SDL-recognized and takes the gamepad path, so this is not the reported
+   SELECT bug -- it is the raw-stick fallback.
+
+5. **`Game2:gamepadpressed` has no SELECT-held guard.** Gen 1
+   (`src/core/Game.lua:686-694`) suppresses the shoulder GAME SPEED cycle while
+   SELECT is held, because Select+L is a display chord on NX. Harmless today
+   (Gold has no display chord) but the two paths have diverged.
+
+6. **`hideCallerBox`'s fallback path skips the screen seams.**
+   `src/script/gen2/CallAsm.lua:217-231` pops through `stack:pop` when the
+   caller box is top (which it always is on a normal call, since `PhoneRing`
+   runs `closetext` before `InitCallReceiveDelay`) but falls back to a bare
+   `table.remove(states, index)` otherwise, which raises neither `exit` nor
+   `screen.popped`. Only a mod screen pushed over the box can reach it, and
+   then a listener that saw `screen.pushed` never sees the pop.
+
+7. **`src/core/gen2/Roamers.lua:338` says the wrong thing.** Its comment says
+   "the shared `encounter.species` hook still runs downstream and is where a
+   mod changes what appears". It does not: `World:tryWildEncounter` calls
+   `startBattle` on a roamer hit and RETURNS before it reaches
+   `World:rollEncounter`. The doc's partial-coverage list is right and the
+   comment is wrong; correct the comment, not the doc.
+
+8. **`src/world/gen2/World.lua:4318` still calls the pack's SEL row something
+   "this port has not built".** The pack submenu now offers SEL. Stale comment.
+
+Three partial coverages that are documented and still true, repeated here
+because "the hook exists" is not "the hook sees everything":
+`encounter.roll` / `encounter.species` are not wired into `World:tryHeadbutt`,
+`World:rockMonEncounter` or the roamer path; `src/ui/gen2/BattleState.lua`
+builds a flat `opts` for `Catching.attempt` with no `data` in it, so a
+mod-registered ball is readable through `Catching.recordFor` but is not
+resolved at the real throw site; and no Gen 2 UI file reads
+`Battle.statusRecordFor(data, status).hudLabel`, so a mod status shows no label
+in the battle HUD, the party menu or the summary page.
+
+## Open: cleanups declined on purpose
+
+These were skipped with reasons during the wiring pass. They are listed so the
+reasons survive, not because they are pending work.
+
+1. **`Vm:showRaw(body, stay)`** was proposed and declined. `showRawHeld` in
+   `Specials.lua` already answers the text lookahead correctly, so this trades
+   one working shape for another.
+
+2. **`tests/drivers/gold_egg_hatch.lua` summary push** was declined as
+   redundant: `gold_egg_hatch_shots.lua` already photographs both the cutscene
+   and the summary page.
+
+3. **Two `Battle.lua` divergences** were filed as notes by the file's own owner
+   rather than fixed, because no reported symptom drives either: text printed
+   for an already-statused target, and Future Sight taking STAB, type
+   effectiveness and weather. Both are real divergences from the cart. Fix them
+   when something actually depends on them.
+
+## Reported, investigated, and NOT defects: do not re-chase these
+
+Each of these came in as a bug report and came back disproved against the asm.
+Re-opening one costs another full investigation, so the reasoning is kept here.
+
+- **SFX pointer table misalignment.** The table is aligned end to end. 188 `dba`
+  rows with no skips or padding, 188 constants, verified through the manifest
+  scraper, the extractor's `*3` stride, and 8 ids spot-checked against the live
+  cache. Two things that look like misalignment are how the cart is built:
+  `SFX_GET_EGG_UNUSED` and `SFX_GET_EGG` both point at `Sfx_GetEgg`, and
+  `Sfx_ReadText` / `Sfx_ReadText2` share one header address. **Do not repoint,
+  re-stride, or add an offset to the SFX, music, or cry tables.**
+
+- **Bind letting you pick other moves.** This is Gen 1 behavior and does not
+  hold for Gen 2. `BattleCommand_TrapTarget` (`effect_commands.asm:5568-5605`)
+  writes only the TARGET's wrap count and trapping move. It touches nothing on
+  the user, so the user is free to switch moves. The port is correct. The real
+  Gen 2 move locks (Rollout, Thrash, Petal Dance) were genuinely missing and
+  have been added.
+
+- **The Slowpoke Tail salesman not blocking progression.** He is Route 32's
+  `FISHER4` at (7,70), not an Azalea Town object, and the cart's refusal arm
+  only prints. `_OfferToSellSlowpokeTail` runs `setscene SCENE_ROUTE32_NOOP`
+  first, so the coord event never fires again. There is no pushback to port.
+
+- **The rival being named BLUE.** Not reproducible. The whole chain is intact:
+  special 36 resolves to `H.NameRival`, `NamingScreen:accept` hands the typed
+  string through, and BLUE is the Gen 1 default that Gold never reaches. A
+  separate real defect on this seam (the rival being pre-named SILVER before the
+  officer asks, and the blank-entry fallback) was found and fixed.
+
+- **Not Very Effective dealing 0 damage**, **status not shown in the battle
+  UI**, and **the Pokedex missing from the Start Menu** all came back
+  `already_fixed`: the damage floor is `MIN_DAMAGE` added after the cap and
+  before the type multiply, the HUD prints the status tag where the level goes,
+  and the menu row is gated on `save.engineFlags[11]` correctly.
+
+## Standing risks, not breakage
+
+- **Four Gold test files are wired into no runner**, so a regression in them
+  will not turn `run_tests.lua` red: `gold_flag_names_test`,
+  `gold_route_validate_test`, `gen2_pokegear_unlock_test`,
+  `gen2_save_export_test`. All four pass standalone. The first two are the
+  pre-run route validators documented in `KANTO-CONTINUE.md`; the last two need
+  a `GOLD_CACHE` and are excluded by an in-file comment. This is deliberate, but
+  it is a coverage hole and worth knowing.
+
+- **`mods/` must stay clean.** The 2026-08-10 round left temporary probe mods
+  behind mid-run (`mods/tmp_menus`, `mods/zz_verify_seams`); both are gone now
+  and `mods/` holds only `example_mew_starter`, `example_silly_oak`, `examples`
+  and `nuzlocke`. A stray `mods/tmp_*` loads on every Gold boot and changes what
+  a driver measures. `mods/example_silly_oak` carries only a `.modkitignore` and
+  warns "manifest.json does not exist" on every boot; that is pre-existing
+  (27 Jul) and unrelated.
+
+- **`tests/drivers/gold_opaque_surround.lua` is stale.** It reads
+  `game.stack._items`; `src/core/StateStack.lua` has only `.states`. That branch
+  is covered instead by `gold_center_pc` and the letterbox-per-frame count in
+  `gold_frame_seams`.
+
+- **`luac` on this machine is Lua 5.5**, so `luac -p` is a weak proxy for the
+  LuaJIT/5.1 semantics this engine targets. Use `luajit -b <file> /dev/null` for
+  a real syntax gate.
+
+- **`docs/rfcs/0001-surfing-pikachu-sprite.md` and `0002-screen-render-visible.md`
+  are deleted** in the working tree, and both are still referenced by name from
+  live modkit case files that pass. Those deletions predate both parity runs.
+  Worth resolving before a commit.
+
+## The failure mode that actually bit, worth remembering
+
+Round 1 reported the Yes/No dialogue fix as landed. It was not. Two of its three
+lanes wrote their half, and the third left the hook closure at
+`World.lua:828` declared as `function(body, onDone)`, so the third argument
+`Vm:resume` passes was silently discarded and the entire `stay` implementation
+in `World:showText` and `World:askYesNo` was dead code. Lua drops extra
+arguments without complaint, so nothing failed and every suite stayed green.
+
+Round 2 caught it only because an investigator probed the boundary empirically
+instead of reading both sides and assuming they met. When work is split across
+agents by file, **the seams between the files are where the bugs live**, and a
+green suite does not prove a seam is connected.

+# KANTO-CONTINUE: executing the never-run half of Gold (sections 19-32)
+
+Deferred from the 2026-08-09 fix campaign by request. This doc is self-contained: the
+audit documents it was distilled from are being retired, so everything a future session
+needs is here.
+
+## What this is
+
+The Johto main line (walkthrough sections 00-18) is proven: the route bot beats Champion
+Lance with every row passing. Kanto (sections 19-32) is extracted and wired but has
+NEVER been executed by any bot row, driver, or human. Every entry below reads clean in
+static review (cache + code + cart source were cross-checked adversarially); the risk is
+purely runtime. The job: make each beat actually run, fix what breaks, and leave
+executable evidence (bot rows or assertion drivers) behind.
+
+## State after the 2026-08-09 campaign (what changed under you)
+
+- ~80 defects fixed across the port; 91/91 gen2 suites, engine 128/128, T3 all green.
+- The post-game handoff WORKS now: post-E4 credits end at the title screen, and
+  CONTINUE consumes the post-game spawn (HallOfFame.consumePostGameSpawn): after Lance
+  you continue in NEW_BARK_TOWN, after Red at SILVER_CAVE_OUTSIDE (23,20). Section 19
+  is reachable by normal play for the first time.
+- The Snorlax wake chain is fully functional (engine-flag bridge unlocks the Pokegear
+  and EXPN card; the tuned radio song persists after closing the gear; SnorlaxAwake
+  fires; proven live by tests/drivers/gold_radio_persist.lua).
+- Landed systems Kanto beats depend on: phone random/outgoing calls, field item use
+  (Escape Rope/Dig via save.backupWarp), Repel, swarms, Rock Smash encounters,
+  waterfall current tiles, roamer scatter on CONTINUE, trap volatiles + FORCESHINY
+  battle types (beast catching in section 32 is now mechanically possible), badge
+  boosts, held items, specialty balls (Lure Ball needs battleType 'fish', already
+  stamped by updateFishing).
+- NPC HOUR WINDOWS are now enforced (they were not when the Johto route was authored).
+  Any Kanto row that talks to a time-gated NPC must pin the clock (POKEPORT_GOLD_HOUR /
+  POKEPORT_GOLD_DAY) or handle absence. Only 11 hour-gated objects exist on the whole
+  cart: CELADON_GAME_CORNER 6/7, GOLDENROD_GAME_CORNER 4/5, MOUNT_MOON_GIFT_SHOP 1-4,
+  and the three Moms in PLAYERS_HOUSE_1F; Celadon and Mt Moon are the Kanto exposures.
+- The game clock now anchors on every new game (cart InitClock semantics), so time of
+  day no longer follows the host wall clock in driver runs; POKEPORT_GOLD_HOUR pins
+  the anchored base too. Runs are reproducible across day/night; a pre-existing flake
+  class (night runs catching HOOTHOOT where day runs catch PIDGEY, shifting grind
+  levels) died with it.
+- Battles hit harder both ways since the cart MIN_DAMAGE floor landed; grind budgets
+  tuned for the old numbers may need a nudge.
+
+## Known bot weaknesses to expect (verified pre-existing, not campaign regressions)
+
+- Pathfinding pocket: travel into ILEX_FOREST / SLOWPOKE_WELL bounces (probe
+  CHERRYGROVE_CITY>ILEX_FOREST reports no route), and route row 16.54 gives up the
+  walk to VICTORY_ROAD_GATE with the identical TELEPORT signature in every logged run.
+  Kanto routing should waypoint doors explicitly per the ops recipes above.
+- Optional buy rows 04.5d and 18.g4/18.g5 fail whenever the wallet is empty at that
+  point in the run; they are budgeting gaps in the route, not engine bugs.
+- Grind row 08.g (Route 41 water) has almost no margin; with the clock now anchored
+  its inputs are stable, but a low-level POLIWAG catch can still stretch it.
+
+## How to run things
+
+Identity/cache: gold-dev (~/Library/Application Support/LOVE/gold-dev/gold), rebuilt
+2026-08-09 with swarm/rock/roam tables. Checkpoints gold-ckpt-NN.lua exist per section;
+gold-ckpt-18-pristine.lua is the post-E4 seed. ROM: ../decprep/Pokemon - Gold
+Version.gbc. Cart source: ../pokegold (cite it in any hand-ported code).
+
+Headless love needs a pty on macOS; wrap every run:
+  perl -e 'alarm 900; exec @ARGV' python3 -c "import pty; pty.spawn(['love','.'])"
+
+Full bot run:  POKEPORT_IDENTITY=<id> POKEPORT_GAME=gold POKEPORT_SPEED=200 \
+  POKEPORT_GOLD_CKPT=1 POKEPORT_GOLD_STALL=20000 POKEPORT_GOLD_LOG=/tmp/b.log \
+  POKEPORT_DRIVER=tests/drivers/gold_bot.lua love .
+Resume a section: POKEPORT_GOLD_RESUME=NN (same identity, prior CKPT=1 run).
+Travel probe: POKEPORT_GOLD_PROBE="MAP_A>MAP_B" with tests/drivers/gold_travel_probe.lua.
+Map graph: luajit tools/goldwalk/mapgraph.lua path|map|reach|audit; regenerate
+tests/drivers/gold/map_regions.lua with `mapgraph.lua graph >` after ANY extractor map
+change, then re-check route region indices.
+Route validation (before any run): luajit tests/gold_route_validate_test.lua and
+luajit tests/gold_flag_names_test.lua.
+Suites: GOLD_CACHE="$HOME/Library/Application Support/LOVE/gold-dev/gold" luajit
+tests/gen2_<name>_test.lua; tiers run_engine/run_modkit/run_tests.
+Reimport after extractor/manifest changes: python3 tools/make_gold_manifest.py, then
+POKEPORT_IMPORT_TRACE=1 POKEPORT_IDENTITY=gold-dev POKEPORT_IMPORT_ROM="../decprep/\
+Pokemon - Gold Version.gbc" POKEPORT_IMPORT_ONLY=1 POKEPORT_FORCE_IMPORT=1 \
+POKEPORT_GAME=gold love .
+
+## Recommended shape of the work
+
+1. Extend tests/drivers/gold/route.lua with sections 19-32 (the row format, ops and
+   evidence rules are documented in the file head and bot.lua). Seed runs from
+   gold-ckpt-18-pristine plus the now-working post-credits CONTINUE. `expect` flags are
+   the only oracles; never make a row load-bearing on a soft-failing map.
+2. Highest-risk multi-map scripted chains first: S.S. Aqua voyage, Machine Part chain,
+   PASS/Magnet Train chain. Each deserves an assertion driver even if bot rows also
+   cover it.
+3. Time-gated beats (S.S. Aqua sailing days, Indigo rival Mon/Wed, Dragon's Den
+   Tue/Thu, Clefairy Monday night, TM03 night gate) need POKEPORT_GOLD_DAY/HOUR pins.
+4. Johto stragglers are folded in below (lighthouse descent, TM08 flake, and the
+   optional gift beats); they ride the same route-extension pass.
+5. Section 32 (beasts) last: it needs long roaming play; trap volatiles and FORCESHINY
+   landed this campaign, so Mean Look + Heavy/Fast Ball plans are now viable.
+
+## Also deferred (deliberate stubs, do not re-flag)
+
+Time Capsule trading, Trainer House CAL2/Mystery Gift visitor, Silver-version import,
+Cable Club link rooms, and Game Boy Printer output are deliberate product-level stubs,
+not campaign work.
+
+## The beats, in walkthrough order
+
+### Runtime coverage ends at the Hall of Fame: no bot row, driver, or human has run any Kanto beat (sections 19-32) or the section 14 Tin Tower/Whirl Islands content
+
+walkthrough section(s) 19,20,21,22,23,24,27,28,29,30,31,14 | missing
+
+One root cause: tests/drivers/gold/route.lua (1264 lines) ends at row 18.20 (settle HALL_OF_FAME, expect EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_FOUR); the campaign covers asm-walk sections 00-18 only and none of the 24/36 gold_* drivers reaches any Kanto map, so sections 19-32 have zero execution proof. Extend route.lua into sections 19-32 and/or add targeted drivers. Per section pair: (s19/20) next rows are the Elm ticket (needs the post-credits spawn fix or a fly detour from Indigo), the ship crossing as far as the docking events, the Surge fight, and a Saffron Gym pad-chain assertion. (s21/22) All 24 route/gym trainers resolve in cache with correct parties: Route 9 six (Edna, Sid, Dean, Sidney, Tim, Heidi); Route 25 seven plus Kevin, whose Nugget-then-battle script 50:488d is hand-shaped (a full bag aborts before the battle, cart behavior); Cerulean's three swimmers; Route 10 South's Jim and Robert (Robert's Quagsire holds a BERRY via TRAINERTYPE_ITEM); Route 8's five; Celadon Gym's five including the twins' shared beat flag. Sight-line engagement is Trainers.sees (proven by the Johto bot); prize money base x level x 4 is Prize.lua; Erika's class item extracts as HYPER_POTION (the walkthrough's 'three Full Restores' is a FAQ error, not a port gap); Gold-only wilds (Mankey line Route 9, Growlithe Routes 7/8) come from the ROM version branch; Route 8's PRZCureBerry fruit tree is a fruittree op (Vm.lua:1218) into Apricorns.lua daily reset. One Kanto smoke-run converts the whole block. (s23/24) Nothing touches Routes 11-19, Fuchsia City/gym, Vermilion Snorlax, Diglett's Cave, Route 2, Pewter; the report's three blocker findings (START menu row, Pokegear card flags, radio persistence) are exactly the UI-plumbing breaks data audits miss: a gold_snorlax_wake.lua that grants the gear and EXPN card the way the game does (setflag 4, setflag 0, setflag 3 through the VM, not by poking save fields), tunes the radio, closes the gear, and talks to the Snorlax would currently fail at three separate steps; gold_cycling_road.lua and gold_fuchsia_gym.lua are the other two cheap proofs (gold_menu_shots.lua:72-73 only ever hand-seeded save fields). (s27/28) Drive first: (1) Cinnabar Blue talk -> disappear -> clearevent 1910 -> Viridian Gym populated -> Blue beaten -> ENGINE_EARTHBADGE set -> VAR_BADGES answers 16 (a break anywhere makes the 16th badge unobtainable and the Mt. Silver gate unpassable); cache chain exists: CINNABAR_ISLAND obj 1 SPRITE_BLUE at (9,6) scriptKey 4e:4985 eventFlag 1909; VIRIDIAN_GYM objs 1-2 gated on 1910; (2) the ROUTE_20 MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP 4e:4cfa setevent 215 / ROUTE_19 MAPCALLBACK_TILES 4e:4f09 changeblock unseal pair (regression walls off Route 19). Driver: surf Pallet -> Route 21 -> Cinnabar -> talk to Blue -> Route 20 -> beat Blaine -> fly to Viridian -> beat Blue. (s29/30) No rows for Kanto OAKS_LAB, ROUTE_22, ROUTE_28, SILVER_CAVE_OUTSIDE, or the Union Cave B2F Lapras revisit (route.lua's only Union Cave rows are 03.29/04.g); risk concentrates on composites never run together: the 16-badge Oak visit with ProfOaksPCBoot text chain, the double Cut approach to the Route 28 west strip, surf-to-talk on the drifting SWIM_WANDER Lapras (Lake of Rage Gyarados proves the shape via gold_lake_probe.lua), and the daily-flag consume-and-respawn cycle across a save reload; a targeted gold_lapras_probe driver (clockDay=5, walk in, assert object present, catch, walk out, re-enter, assert gone) plus route extension converts inspected to proven. (s31) All six Silver Cave maps decode (warps, item balls flags 1689-1693, hidden items, SILVER_CAVE_OUTSIDE flypoint callback, PALETTE_DARK on Room 1, grass/water tables including Room 2 water); Flash lifts PALETTE_DARK via Palettes.isDarkness + World flashUsed; Surf/Waterfall live in FieldMoves with the badge table; gen2 ledges landed via Permissions.ledgeFacings / World:tryLedgeJump (the asm-walk's 'ledge hop missing' row is stale, GOLD-NEXT-RUN records the fix); the flypoint is FieldMoves.lua:386 flag 75; but no driver has entered Silver Cave, used Waterfall on Room 2's two bands, hopped Room 1's Escape Rope ledge, or talked to Red (closest: gold_halloffame_shots, gold_hm07_probe which proved Waterfall only at Tohjo Falls). (s14) The bot covers sections 10,11,12,13,16,17,18 and never section 14 (Ho-Oh is optional); untested: the 4F-9F ladder/hop mazes (depend on the recently added ledge-hop and one-way-wall support), the Ecruteak entrance sage scene retarget from Morty's setmapscene, the 1F sage unmasking off EVENT_TEAM_ROCKET_DISBANDED (set on the Gold arm of the Radio Tower boss script), the roof save/reset loop, and the entire Gold-side Whirl Islands dive; needs one probe driver carrying a RAINBOW_WING save up the tower and one diving to the Lugia chamber.
+
+*How to prove it:* Extend tests/drivers/gold/route.lua past row 18.20 into sections 19-32, and/or write the named targeted drivers: gold_snorlax_wake.lua, gold_cycling_road.lua, gold_fuchsia_gym.lua, a gold_lapras_probe (clockDay=5 present/absent cycle), a Cinnabar-to-Viridian 16th-badge driver, a Route 20/19 unseal driver, a Silver Cave/Red driver, a Tin Tower RAINBOW_WING probe, and a Whirl Islands Lugia dive probe.
+
+*Notes:* Merged from the parent heading plus six 'Also filed as' sub-findings (all one cause). Doc's own ratings: parent missing/minor (s19,20, already in ledger); s21,22 unverified/minor; s23,24 unverified/minor; s27,28 missing/major; s29,30 unverified/minor; s31 unverified/minor; s14 unverified/minor. The adversarial re-check ran on the s27/28 sub-claim, tried to refute and could not; its one correction: tests/drivers/gold/flag_names.lua and map_regions.lua DO name the Kanto maps (map_regions even carries CINNABAR/SEAFOAM/VIRIDIAN region graphs, so bot travel there is data-ready) but they are lookup tables, not executed coverage. 'Implemented statically, executed by nobody' matches the project's Roamers/Events:restore failure mode. GOLD-WALK-HANDOFF sections 1 and 4 already document the Johto-only scope.

+### Olivine Port pier and Fast Ship boarding gate: the only road into Kanto, fully extracted, never executed
+
+walkthrough section(s) 19 | unverified
+
+Coord event at (7,15) (cache 5b:407d) does the full cart sequence: temporary-event bails, first-time bypass on event 48, readvar VAR_WEEKDAY branch, yesorno, checkitem S_S_TICKET (item 68), setevent 1, 7-step applymovement, sjump into gangway script 5b:401e which plays SFX, disappears/appears the sailor, runs special 46 = FadeOutToWhite (specialOrder[46+1], implemented Specials.lua:998), clears the eight eastbound EVENT_BEAT_* rematch flags on repeat trips, sets FAST_SHIP_1F scene 1, and warps to (25,1). Port sprite toggles for the post-Hall-of-Fame sailor (events 1847/1848) are armed by the HOF script. All data extracted, every op has a proven Johto call site; matched op-for-op against pokegold maps/OlivinePort.asm. Needs one live run or driver.
+
+*How to prove it:* A driver or bot section that reaches OLIVINE_PORT post-HOF with the S_S_TICKET, boards, and asserts the warp to FAST_SHIP_1F (25,1) with scene 1 set. No gold_* driver currently reaches OLIVINE_PORT post-HOF.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/blocker, new. If this chain fails, the walkthrough stops here (Kanto unreachable).

+Verified in cache, never executed: FastShip1F enter scene 5b:48a8 sdefer 5b:48ad (SFX_BOAT, earthquake 30, blackoutmod to cabin map, clearevent 49, scene 2 on first trip); grandpa bump coord events at (24,6)/(25,6); maiden-trip trainer objects behind flag 1849 with parties matching data/trainers/parties.asm exactly (NOLAND Sandslash31/Golem33, LYLE Koffing28/Flareon31/Koffing28, COLIN Delibird32 holding BERRY, MEG&PEG, FRITZ Mr.Mime/Magmar/Machoke, JEFF 2x Raticate32, DEBRA Seaking33, STANLY Machop31/Machoke33/Psyduck26, all in trainers.lua); B1F blocking-sailor coord scripts 5b:5e0c/5b:5e21 plus shared talk script 5b:5e37 clearing event 1837 to spawn the lazy sailor; FastShipLazySailorScript 5b:4d68 (playmusic, loadtrainer SAILOR 9, reloadmap, special 27 = HealParty, setmapscene B1F NOOP, readvar VAR_FACING walk-out); bed script 5b:521b (HealParty, fades, ReloadSpritesNoPalettes, RestartMapMusic, dock check on events 49/50/48 so sleeping cannot dock the maiden voyage); granddaughter payoff 5b:55c6 (fade, disappear/moveobject/appear teleport, showemote, sjump 5b:5633 = Metal Coat verbosegiveitem plus EVENT_FAST_SHIP_HAS_ARRIVED/FOUND_GIRL); door guard 5b:48d2 with arrived arm 5b:48ec (scall facing arm, setmapscene VERMILION_PORT scene 1, warp to VERMILION_PORT 7,17). Specials 27/46/47/49/50/60 resolve to HealParty/FadeOutToWhite/FadeOutToBlack/FadeInFromBlack/ReloadSpritesNoPalettes/RestartMapMusic, all implemented. Nothing in the chain touches a stubbed special, callasm, or VAR. Matched against pokegold maps/FastShip*.asm.
+
+*How to prove it:* A bot section or driver for the full crossing (board, fight or dodge the gauntlet, sleep check, granddaughter Metal Coat, dock at VERMILION_PORT 7,17).

+### Machine Part quest chain (Power Plant manager, Cerulean Gym grunt scene, Route 24 grunt, part return, TM07) never executed
+
+walkthrough section(s) 21,22 | unverified
+
+The spine of sections 21-22: manager talk sets EVENT_MET_MANAGER_AT_POWER_PLANT 202, clears EVENT_CERULEAN_GYM_ROCKET 1901 and EVENT_FOUND_MACHINE_PART_IN_CERULEAN_GYM 251, arms CERULEAN_GYM scene 1 and the POWER_PLANT guard phone-call scene; grunt runs out of the gym (sets 203, clears 1900/1902, arms ROUTE_25 scene 1); beat the Route 24 grunt (GRUNTM 31, L30 Golbat); return the part for TM07 Zap Cannon plus EVENT_RESTORED_POWER_TO_KANTO 205 and the Saffron station population flip (clears 1906). Statically verified: cache holds full bytecode for PowerPlantManager 54:4dbd with both branches (54:4deb takeitem MACHINE_PART / 54:4e04 TM give guarded by event 223), gym scene script 54:4332 sdefer 54:4336 with all 34 rows, Route 24 grunt script 50:4407; initial_events.lua seeds flags 251/1900/1901/1902/1903/1906/1907 at new game exactly as InitializeEventsScript does (pokegold engine/events/std_scripts.asm:546-550); World.lua:607 applies the seed while EVENT_INITIALIZED_EVENTS is clear. Engine deps all have call sites: World:trySceneScript (World.lua:5369, called at :6893), setmapscene/setscene (Vm.lua:274-284), specials RestartMapMusic/FadeOutToBlack/FadeInFromBlack/ReloadSpritesNoPalettes/FadeOutMusic (Specials.lua:999-1072). Missing only run-time proof: route bot covers sections 00-18, no Kanto driver exists.
+
+*How to prove it:* Route extension or a driver walking manager -> gym grunt scene -> Route 24 grunt battle -> part return, asserting events 202/203/205 set and 1900/1901/1902/251/1906 cleared and TM07 in bag.

+
+### Route 25 Misty date scene, Cerulean gym population, and Misty fight never executed (and Misty gives no TM, contrary to walkthrough)
+
+walkthrough section(s) 21 | unverified
+
+The date cutscene at Route 25 cells (42,6)/(42,7) is what clears EVENT_TRAINERS_IN_CERULEAN_GYM 1903 and populates the gym with Misty, three swimmers, and the guide; without it Misty never appears and the Cascade Badge is unreachable. Cache has both coord events with sceneId=1 (scripts 18305/18369) and full scripts 50:4781/50:47c1 (34-row cutscene: heart emote, boyfriend flees, Misty approach movement, clearevent 1903, setscene 0, special 60=RestartMapMusic), armed by gym grunt script 54:4336 row 27 (setmapscene group=7 map=16 scene=1). Engine deps: World:tryCoordScript (World.lua:5006) filters on the map scene id; mapScenes persist on the save (GOLD-INDEX tier note on World:loadPlayerData). CeruleanGymMistyScript 54:438a is in the cache; MISTY trainer 1 party (L42 Golduck, L42 Quagsire, L44 Lapras, L47 Starmie with full movesets) extracts correctly; baseMoney 25 so the 4700G payout follows from Prize.reward.
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver: arm the scene via the gym grunt, trigger the date coord event at (42,6)/(42,7), assert 1903 cleared and the gym populated, then fight Misty and assert the Cascade Badge and 4700G.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/blocker, new. Correction embedded in the doc: Misty gives NO TM on the Gold cart, only the badge plus retroactive swimmer beat flags; the walkthrough and the lead's 'TM from Misty' are wrong about the cart, nothing is missing in the port there.

+### PASS quest: Copycat lost item and Fan Club doll chain fully extracted, never run
+
+walkthrough section(s) 22 | unverified
+
+Copycat (COPYCATS_HOUSE_2F object 1, variable sprite slot 251) talk after the machine part return sets EVENT_MET_COPYCAT_FOUND_OUT_ABOUT_LOST_ITEM 206; Fan Club Clefairy guy (POKEMON_FAN_CLUB object 3, script 59:437b) then gives LOST_ITEM 130 and disappears the doll (flag 1908, correctly NOT in the initial seed; doc evidence line also cites POKEMON_FAN_CLUB object 5 flag 1908); returning it (Copycat branch 61:528b: takeitem 130, setevent 208, clearevent 1907 to re-show her shelf doll, then PASS 134 via 61:529d) yields the PASS. All bytecode in cache (61:5235/61:5270/61:528b); the mimicry gag's variablesprite slot 11 plus special 93 resolves to LoadUsedSpritesGFX (specialOrder[94], Specials.lua:1033); the Copycat's variable sprite slot is seeded through World.initialSprites/findInitialSprites (World.lua:1530, the fix GOLD-INDEX credits for the Copycat existing at all). Flag 1907 is in the initial seed so the shelf doll is hidden until the return; 1906 is seeded so the Saffron station stays empty until power is restored.
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver: after machine-part return, talk to Copycat (assert 206), get LOST_ITEM at the Fan Club (assert doll flag 1908 set), return it (assert 208 set, 1907 cleared, PASS 134 in bag).
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/major, new. Correction embedded: the walkthrough's 'Rail Pass then Magnet Train Pass' is one item (PASS) on the cart, not a port gap. Merge-with hint: the s20 entry 'Copycat lost doll quest chain toward the rail PASS' (copycat-doll-pass-s20) describes the same quest from the section-20 audit with slightly different event ids cited (210/201 gate checks there vs 206/208 here).

+
+walkthrough section(s) 22 | unverified
+
+SaffronMagnetTrainStationOfficerScript (cache 61:4bc2/61:4bd0, rows 11-14) checks EVENT_RESTORED_POWER_TO_KANTO 205 then checkitem PASS 134, does setval 1, special id=35 which resolves to MagnetTrain (specialOrder[36]), then warpcheck and newloadmap 249 (MAPSETUP_TRAIN). All implemented: H.MagnetTrain (Specials.lua:2119) reads scriptVar for direction and blocks on World:magnetTrain (World.lua:2393) which pushes Gen2MagnetTrainRide; Vm handles warpcheck (:1135) and newloadmap (:1177); MAPSETUP_TRAIN defined at World.lua:175. Gating events (205 set by the Power Plant manager, PASS from the Copycat) are this section's other findings.
+

+
+walkthrough section(s) 14 | unverified
+
+For a Gold cart, Lugia needs the SILVER_WING carried in the bag (WhirlIslandLugiaChamberLugiaCallback does checkevent EVENT_FOUGHT_LUGIA then checkitem SILVER_WING), and in Gold the wing comes from the Pewter City gramps (pokegold maps/PewterCity.asm PewterCityGrampsScript: checkver, Silver arm branches away, Gold falls through to verbosegiveitem SILVER_WING + setevent). Verified in cache: PEWTER_CITY object 3 (SPRITE_GRAMPS at 29,17) scriptKey 4d:583e = faceplayer / opentext / checkver / iftrue 4d:585c / checkevent 121 / verbosegiveitem item 71 / setevent 121 / closetext / end, all generic opcodes. The Lugia chamber map, its SPRITE_LUGIA object (scriptKey 47:41a0, eventFlag 1853), and its MAPCALLBACK_OBJECTS callback (47:418c) are in the cache using only implemented machinery. Route bot has no section 14/25 rows (grep 'id = "1[0-9]' shows 10,11,12,13,16,17,18). One mechanical gap on the dive path: the waterfall forced-down item, reported separately in the doc.
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver or bot rows: reach Pewter in Gold, talk to the gramps (assert SILVER_WING item 71 given, event 121 set), then the full Whirl Islands dive to the Lugia chamber.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/major, new. The waterfall forced-down item on the dive path is a separate finding elsewhere in the doc, not part of this entry.

+Arrival scene (VERMILION_PORT scene 1, sdefer 5b:450e) extracted intact: one step up, appear the gangway sailor, setscene 0, end-of-voyage flags (1841/1840 hide grandpa and granddaughter for good, 1849 retires the maiden-trip trainers, clear 1843 to reveal the Olivine passage Pokefan, set 48 EVENT_FAST_SHIP_FIRST_TIME), and blackoutmod VERMILION_CITY. ENGINE_FLYPOINT_VERMILION comes from MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP on both VERMILION_PORT and VERMILION_CITY (setflag 57); the port's fly table carries the matching row (FieldMoves.lua:392) and World:runMapCallback has a live call site (World.lua:5659 plus the MAPCALLBACK_OBJECTS call in setMap). Fly deliberately stays region-locked exactly like the cart (FieldMoves.flyPoints, FieldMoves.lua:442: Kanto page only after SPAWN_INDIGO, no cross-region fly, verified against pokegold engine/pokegear/pokegear.asm .KantoFlyMap). Kanto music extracted: audio.lua songs has 92 entries, musicOrder includes Music_VermilionCity and Music_ViridianCity (musicOrder[63]=Music_VermilionCity), mapSongs carries all 362 map rows.

The cart quirk that nothing ever sets the bag-full retry event 211 is faithfully carried in the extracted bytecode. Same map also holds the Clefairy doll object (flag 1908) and Clefairy Guy script 59:437b that the later Copycat quest reads. yesorno, verbosegiveitem, and multi-page writetext all have proven Johto call sites.

Parties in trainers.lua match data/trainers/parties.asm exactly: Surge is RAICHU44/ELECTRODE40/MAGNETON40/ELECTRODE40/ELECTABUZZ46 with full TRAINERTYPE_MOVES movesets; Vincent, Horton, Gregory all match (GUITARIST 2/JUGGLER 3/GENTLEMAN 3). Trainer AI item use implemented: Ai.ITEM_ORDER/Ai.chooseItem (Ai.lua:1368-1400) dispatched from Battle.lua:1790 (AI_SwitchOrTryItem) off the extracted class attributes. The gym has no puzzle in Gen 2, matching the walkthrough's power-outage line.

+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/major, new. Correction embedded: the walkthrough's claim that Surge holds a Full Restore is a FAQ error; pokegold data/trainers/attributes.asm line 114 (block 113-117) gives the Lt Surge class HYPER_POTION and the cache carries exactly that (LT_SURGE items=HYPER_POTION, baseMoney 25).

+The walkthrough's 'large man who blocks the entire entrance' is the ROUTE6_POKEFAN_M object at (17,4) whose event flag EVENT_ROUTE_5_6_POKEFAN_M_BLOCKS_UNDERGROUND_PATH hides him only when SET (set by the Power Plant script in a later section); the port's object-visibility rule 'flag set hides object' is implemented and documented at Events.lua:1-2, and his script is a bare jumptextfaceplayer about the Power Plant. The Route 6 Saffron gate guard at (0,4) stands off the walking lane and is dialogue only (branches on EVENT_RETURNED_MACHINE_PART). ROUTE_6 grass and water encounter tables (Abra/Magnemite slots) are present in encounters.lua. Nothing gated on engine work; it has just never been walked.

+
+walkthrough section(s) 20 | unverified
+
+The gym's whole puzzle is 30 warp pads (cache SAFFRON_GYM warps 3-32) that all target SAFFRON_GYM itself; the only route to Sabrina is entrance pad (11,15) -> ... -> (1,5) -> (11,9). The engine mechanism exists and reads correct: pads are COLL_WARP_PANEL 0x7c, an immediate warp (Permissions.lua:311); World:takeWarp (World.lua:6022-6040) handles a destination equal to the current map through setMap; warpCooldown keyed on the landing cell (World.lua:6135 set, 6217-6222, 6240 suppression check) stops the landing pad from re-firing until the player steps off, exactly what a pad-to-pad maze needs. But the asm-walk's own port-coverage table flags that no driver has ever exercised a same-map warp chain, and no Kanto run exists. If this breaks, Sabrina is unreachable and the 10th badge (and eventually Red's gate) is lost.
+
+*How to prove it:* Targeted driver: enter the gym, ride pad (11,15), assert arrival at (19,17), then the full 5-hop chain to (11,9).

The four trainers (Rebecca, Franklin, Doris, Jared; MEDIUM 6,7 / PSYCHIC_T 2,11; parties verified including the cart's L35 third Exeggcute that the FAQ gets wrong) are OBJECTTYPE_TRAINER with SPINRANDOM movement, which Npc.lua supports, and sight/battle handoff is the proven Trainers.lua path. Prize money base x last-level x4 is implemented in Prize.lua (matches the walkthrough's 4800G).
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver through the warp maze to Sabrina; assert ENGINE_MARSHBADGE (flag 39) into save.player.kantoBadges.MARSH, the four trainer flags force-set, and the 4800G payout.

Copycat's 2F object uses variable sprite 251 (SPRITE_COPYCAT), and the new-game variablesprite seeding that used to leave Copycat despawned was fixed during the Johto campaign (tests/gen2_variable_sprites_test.lua, GOLD-WALK-HANDOFF section 5); her script (cache 61:5235) is extracted bytecode whose only special, LoadUsedSpritesGFX, is implemented (Specials.lua:1033); the Fan Club Clefairy Guy (59:437b) checks events 210/201 and gives LOST_ITEM; the doll object (flag 1907) and the PASS handover (verbosegiveitem PASS, setevent EVENT_GOT_PASS_FROM_COPYCAT per pokegold maps/CopycatsHouse2F.asm:61-73) are ordinary ops; PASS is a KEY_ITEM in items.lua. Nothing engine-shaped is missing.

Merge-with hint: same quest chain as pass-quest-copycat-fanclub (s22); kept separate because the doc filed them as distinct headings from two section audits.

+TM03 Curse: roof house pharmacist script 5e:5083 in cache with checktime mask 4 (NITE) at row 7; the Vm checktime opcode (Vm.lua:788) maps NITE to bit 4 off World:timeOfDayId, so the night-only gate should behave; the give branch 5e:509a is guarded by EVENT_GOT_TM03_CURSE 218. Leftovers: CeladonCafeTrashcan bg event at (7,1) key 5e:648c present, plain giveitem bytecode with the flag only set on success so a full pack retries, exactly the cart. Hidden PP Up at Celadon (37,21): BGEVENT_ITEM row present, handled by HiddenItems (fixed PP_UP; the walkthrough's 'random PP Up' is wrong on the cart too). Berserk Gene at Cerulean (2,12), hidden Ether Route 9 (10,5), and hidden Potion Route 25 (4,5) likewise extract. All generic and statically sound, none ever run.

Both callbacks extracted (type 5 NEWMAP 5b:6763 re-hides the stone on entry; type 2 OBJECTS 5b:6767 hides the rock). The rock object (SPRITE_ROCK at 7,7, scriptKey 5b:67ee = jumpstd SmashRockScript) resolves to the real SmashRock/AskRockSmash bodies GOLD-INDEX.md:377-382 documents; follow/stopfollow are implemented (Vm.lua:1009,1026). Flag semantics match the cart: ENGINE_MT_MOON_SQUARE_CLEFAIRY lives in wDailyFlags2 (pokegold constants/engine_flags.asm:105-106) and the port clears id 87 in Apricorns.DAILY_ENGINE_FLAGS, so the dance is once per day, i.e. once per Monday night. Unproven in-game: (a) whether the appeared rock correctly blocks/receives the A press on the Moon Stone tile at (7,7) and Rock Smash then exposes the hidden item in the same visit, and (b) the full follow-chain animation. The stubbed RockMonEncounter (CallAsm STUB_ROWS) does NOT affect this rock: MOUNT_MOON_SQUARE is not in the cart's RockMonMaps (pokegold data/wild/treemon_maps.asm:43-48), so no encounter roll is owed here.

+
+walkthrough section(s) 26 | unverified
+
+Both beats are pure extracted content keyed on EVENT_BEAT_RIVAL_IN_MT_MOON (set by the implemented Mt Moon script) and VAR_WEEKDAY (real in the port; World:readVar VAR_WEEKDAY at World.lua:1289): the cache carries INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_1F's NEWMAP callback 5a:48b6 (23 rows of setmapscene/clearevent resets) plus its two coord events, and DRAGONS_DEN_B1F's callback 47:44e1 (checkevent 793 -> disappear object 4). The daily rematch flag ENGINE_INDIGO_PLATEAU_RIVAL_FIGHT (id 92) is in Apricorns.DAILY_ENGINE_FLAGS so it clears on the daily rollover. The rematch parties RIVAL2 members 4-6 (L45-50 with CROBAT) are in trainers.lua. Nothing looks missing, but the coord-event choreography in the Pokecenter (rival walks in as you leave) is the kind of scene worth a driver before trusting; filed unverified rather than implemented for that reason.
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver: set EVENT_BEAT_RIVAL_IN_MT_MOON via the Mt Moon fight, force weekday Monday/Wednesday, enter the Indigo lobby and assert the rematch triggers; force Tuesday/Thursday and assert the Dragon's Den object 4 state.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/minor, new. Merge-with hint: overlaps indigo-lobby-rival-rematch (s18), the same Indigo Plateau rematch filed from the section-18 audit; that filing cites World:weekday at World.lua:1247 and scriptKeys 5a:48ff/5a:4940.

+
+Not in the walkthrough text but armed on the lobby tiles it crosses: coord events at (16,4)/(17,4) run PlateauRivalBattle1/2 (cache scriptKeys 5a:48ff/5a:4940), which fight the RIVAL2 second-tier party when EVENT_BEAT_RIVAL_IN_MT_MOON is set, ENGINE_INDIGO_PLATEAU_RIVAL_FIGHT is clear, and VAR_WEEKDAY is Monday or Wednesday (pokegold maps/IndigoPlateauPokecenter1F.asm). Every dependency exists: coord events and scripts extracted, VAR_WEEKDAY answers the real weekday (World:weekday, World.lua:1247), the daily engine flag is registered for midnight reset (Apricorns.lua:88, id 92 ENGINE_INDIGO_PLATEAU_RIVAL_FIGHT), and RIVAL2 parties 4-6 (SNEASEL/45, CROBAT/48, MAGNETON/45, GENGAR/46, ALAKAZAM/46, starter/50) are in the trainers cache. But the gate flag EVENT_BEAT_RIVAL_IN_MT_MOON is Kanto content no run has ever set.
+
+*How to prove it:* Should be picked up when section 26 is audited/run: same driver as rival-rematch-mtmoon, entering the lobby on Monday/Wednesday with the Mt Moon flag set and asserting the coord-event battle fires.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/minor, new. Merge-with hint: same beat as rival-rematch-mtmoon (s26); kept separate because the doc filed both headings. Line-cite difference between filings: World.lua:1247 (weekday) here vs World.lua:1289 (readVar VAR_WEEKDAY) there.

+### Lighthouse descent and swim to Cianwood (route rows 08.50/08.51) never walked; collision data matches the cart, blame points at the bot's region graph
+
+walkthrough section(s) 08 | unverified
+
+The route bot has never completed the descent from Jasmine to Route 40, so the Surf crossing, all fourteen Route 40/41 swimmers, and Cianwood arrival are engine-unwalked (runs reach section 08+ by teleport; run 28 still failed rows 08.50/08.51). The handoff narrows it to the 3F seven-cell pocket: warps 8/9 at (8,3)/(9,3) 'do not take' when stood on. Verified in the current cache: OLIVINE_LIGHTHOUSE_3F (8,3)/(9,3) decode to COLL_FLOOR 0x00, and pokegold data/tilesets/lighthouse_collision.asm block $27 is FLOOR,FLOOR,FLOOR,FLOOR, so those two warp rows are one-way landing anchors for the 4F pits at (8,3)/(9,3) (which decode to COLL_PIT 0x60) and never fire on the cart either. The pocket's real exit is warp 3, the staircase at (9,5), which decodes to 0x72 and does fire ((13,3) also 0x72). Fix shape: correct the bot's region graph, which treats landing-anchor warp coordinates as exits (the exact trap GOLD-WALK-HANDOFF.md:593 documents), not the engine; a human following the walkthrough (drop beside Connie, fight Terrell, take the Ether, head up the stairs) uses the (9,5) staircase and should be fine.
+
+*How to prove it:* Something must walk 6F down to CIANWOOD_CITY in the engine (bot rows 08.50/08.51 passing, or a driver doing the descent and the Route 40/41 Surf crossing); until then the second half of section 08 stays a beat-completeness check rather than a proven path.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/major, already named in the ledger. The doc's own re-check corrected the suspicion of an engine defect: the cache collision matches the cart exactly, so the failing rows indict the bot's region graph, not the engine or the warp data.

+
+walkthrough section(s) 06 | unverified
+
+The Route 36 fisher gives TM08 after EVENT_FOUGHT_SUDOWOODO (Route36RockSmashGuyScript, generic extracted bytecode with verbosegiveitem guarded by iffalse .NoRoomForTM). The ledger contradicts itself across runs: GOLD-WALK-HANDOFF section 8 says 'Everything before it now passes on merit: Sudowoodo, TM08, the ROCK SMASH teach', but run 28's failure table lists '06.21 ROUTE_36 EVENT_GOT_TM08_ROCK_SMASH not set' while the Sudowoodo row itself passed. Plausible causes: full TM pocket taking the iffalse arm, or the bot failing to stand adjacent. The script path is generic and the same give shape works everywhere else, so this is most likely route flake, but it is unresolved in the latest continuous run and TM08 gates all Rock Smash content downstream (Burned Tower rocks, Route 40/Cianwood rock items).
+
+*How to prove it:* Re-run route row 06.21 in a continuous run and assert EVENT_GOT_TM08_ROCK_SMASH gets set; instrument for TM-pocket fullness and adjacency to distinguish the two suspected causes.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/minor, already named in the ledger. Not given severity unverified-risk because the problem is a reproduced-once run failure (a live flake), not purely never-executed content.

+Walkthrough: 'If you talk to him, he'll push you out of the way.' NewBarkTownRivalScript is optional, repeatable (sets no flag) and uses follow PLAYER, applymovement with turn_head/step/fix_facing/jump_step, and SFX_TACKLE. Every opcode involved is implemented (follow/stopfollow in the VM, jump_step in Movement.lua which the ledge fixes exercised), and the sibling teacher-drag scene has a dedicated driver (tests/drivers/gold_teacher_scene.lua), but no driver or test touches this specific scene and the route bot never talks to optional NPCs. Cache maps.lua NEW_BARK_TOWN objects include the rival with a scriptKey and eventFlag.

The full dependency chain has never run: Surf across the 1F Outside lake, the in-cave Waterfall climb to warp 4 at (17,5), the 2F/1F-inside/B1F warp descent, the battle, and the gift. The waterfall climb mechanic itself is bot-verified only at Tohjo Falls; route.lua contains no MORTAR/KIYO/DARK_CAVE rows.

+
+The script is fully extracted (cache scripts['47:436c'], 13 rows matching pokegold maps/DarkCaveBlackthornEntrance.asm exactly: checkevent / verbosegiveitem / iffalse pack-full arm / setevent), the spinning NPC object (SPRITE_PHARMACIST) is in the cache at (7,3) with that scriptKey, and verbosegiveitem is implemented in the VM. Reaching him also needs Flash plus Surf inside the cave, both implemented. The same unverified state covers the TM13 Snore and Revive item balls beside him (item ball arm is implemented and tested). No driver enters Dark Cave and the bot route bypasses it (grep DARK_CAVE in route.lua is empty).

+
+ProfElmScript's ElmCheckMasterBall gate is checkflag ENGINE_RISINGBADGE then verbosegiveitem MASTER_BALL then setevent EVENT_GOT_MASTER_BALL_FROM_ELM (pokegold maps/ElmsLab.asm:57-61). All generic extracted bytecode; checkflag over ENGINE_* badges works since the badge-store fix (GOLD-WALK-HANDOFF.md:502, badges routed into save.player.badges). The route bot has rows 16.24/16.24b for this beat but both are marked optional = true, and no run log or handoff note confirms EVENT_GOT_MASTER_BALL_FROM_ELM was ever actually set in a live run (no MASTER hits in GOLD-NEXT-RUN.md run logs). A full bag silently skips the setevent (verbosegiveitem iffalse), same as the cart.

+### Everstone from Elm by showing a self-hatched Togepi: pieces individually proven, full chain never exercised end to end
+
+walkthrough section(s) 16 | unverified
+
+The gating special FindPartyMonThatSpeciesYourTrainerID is a real handler with the own-OT check (Specials.lua:1134), and the phone-call prerequisite is NOT required: pokegold maps/ElmsLab.asm ElmCheckTogepiEgg -> EVENT_TOGEPI_HATCHED -> ElmEggHatchedScript re-runs the same species scan, so a hatched Togepi in the party is sufficient (maps/ElmsLab.asm:62-95, engine/phone/scripts/elm.asm:46). Egg hatching has a driver (tests/drivers/gold_egg_hatch.lua) and PC withdraw exists (BoxMenu.lua / PcMenu.lua). The full chain (hatch with your OT, withdraw, talk, EVENT_SHOWED_TOGEPI_TO_ELM, verbosegiveitem EVERSTONE) has never run end to end. The .egghatched arm of ElmPhoneCalleeScript (sets EVENT_TOLD_ELM_ABOUT_TOGEPI_OVER_THE_PHONE) lives in the bank $41 callee scripts and only matters for the alternate entry path. No route row exists for the Everstone.
+
+*How to prove it:* A driver chaining gold_egg_hatch-style hatching (own OT), PC withdraw, and the Elm talk, asserting EVENT_SHOWED_TOGEPI_TO_ELM and EVERSTONE in bag.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/minor, new.
+
+
+### TM37 Sandstorm happiness gate at the Route 27 house never exercised; gate is first-slot happiness >= 150
+
+walkthrough section(s) 16 | unverified
+
+The granny's script is extracted (cache scripts['60:6352'], 9 rows: checkevent, special id 88, ifgreater, sjump into the loyal/disloyal arms) and special id 88 resolves through constants.specialOrder with the VM's order[id+1] rule (Vm.lua:1773) to specialOrder[89] = GetFirstPokemonHappiness, a real handler at Specials.lua:1506 reading the first non-egg party member. The cart gate is happiness >= 150 on the FIRST party slot (ifgreater 150-1), not 'one of your Pokemon'. Happiness accrues via Happiness.lua stepped from StepEvents. No driver or bot row enters ROUTE_27_SANDSTORM_HOUSE.
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver: enter ROUTE_27_SANDSTORM_HOUSE with a first-slot mon at happiness >= 150 and assert TM37 given; also assert the disloyal arm below 150.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/minor, new.
+
+
+### Route 27 whirlpool island (Bird Keeper Jose, TM22 Solarbeam, Rare Candy) and Tohjo Falls Moon Stone never run; whirlpool mechanic only proven on Route 41
+
+walkthrough section(s) 16 | unverified
+
+The whirlpool mechanic is implemented and driver-verified, but on Route 41, not here: tests/drivers/gold_water_moves.lua:105-124 clears a real whirlpool block with GLACIERBADGE gating and asserts the block replacement. The Route 27 island content is all in the cache (TM_SOLARBEAM ball at (60,12) item id 213 with event flag, Rare Candy ball at (53,12), BIRD_KEEPER[14] JOSE = L35 FARFETCH_D with phone contact rows; maps.ROUTE_27 objects rows 6-8) and the item ball arm is implemented, but the bot route crosses Route 27 only via Tohjo Falls and never surfs south past Gilbert (route rows 16.42-16.43 skip the south water), so this specific whirlpool, the Jose fight, and the TM22 pickup have never run. Same for the Tohjo Falls MOON_STONE ball at (2,6) (maps.TOHJO_FALLS object 1), which the walkthrough itself never mentions.
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver or route rows: surf south past Gilbert, clear the Route 27 whirlpool, fight Jose, collect TM22 and the Rare Candy; separately pick up the Tohjo Falls Moon Stone.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/minor, new.
+
+
+### Route 26 heal house free heal extracted with all specials real, never entered
+
+walkthrough section(s) 16 | unverified
+
+The teacher's script is extracted (cache scripts['60:60e6'], 17 rows) and every special id in it resolves via order[id+1] to a real handler: 47 FadeOutToBlack, 50 ReloadSpritesNoPalettes, 27 HealParty, 49 FadeInFromBlack, 60 RestartMapMusic (Specials.lua:450, :999, :1025, and the fade-in/restart pair at :1059). Unconditional and repeatable like the cart. No driver or bot row ever enters ROUTE_26_HEAL_HOUSE; the bot route's Route 26 leg is a single travel row straight to the gate.
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver: enter ROUTE_26_HEAL_HOUSE with a damaged party, talk, assert full heal and that the scene is repeatable.
+
+*Notes:* Doc rating: unverified/minor, new.
+
+
+### Victory Road item pickups (TM26 Earthquake pit, Full Restore shelf, Max Revive, Full Heal, X Special, two hidden items) never exercised
+
+walkthrough section(s) 17 | unverified
+
+The walkthrough collects five Poke Ball items (TM26 Earthquake via the one-way pit at (0,11), Full Restore on the ledge shelf via the (17,19) ladder, Max Revive and Full Heal in the entrance region, X Special on the HOP_LEFT column) plus two hidden items (Max Potion at (3,29), Full Heal at (3,65)). All pieces exist: cache maps.VICTORY_ROAD carries 6 objects (5 with itemball item/qty payloads), 2 bgEvents with hiddenItem tables, 10 warps, 2 coord events; World:interact consumes obj.itemball (World.lua:5483-5490, an earlier bot-found fix); HiddenItems handles BGEVENT_ITEM; Permissions models the COLL_PIT one-way warp, the six ladders, ledge hops (isLedge/ledgeFacings, Gold's own direction order where $a0 is HOP_RIGHT), and COLL_UP_WALL side walls (Permissions.lua:170-260 LEDGE_FACINGS/SIDE_BLOCKS/NEIGHBOR_ARM), with a test section at tests/gen2_world_test.lua:2936. But nothing has walked these routes: the bot's section 17 is only travel/walk rows 17.2, 17.11, 17.15 (no pickup rows), so the pit drop, the two HOP exits from the TM pocket, the HOP_DOWN off the shelf, and the X Special ball sitting ON a HOP_LEFT tile (the one placement the asm-walk flags as needing hardware confirmation) are all unproven end to end.
+
+*How to prove it:* Driver or route rows through Victory Road collecting all five balls and both hidden items, specifically exercising the (0,11) pit drop, the (17,19) ladder shelf with HOP_DOWN exit, the two HOP exits from the TM pocket, and interaction with the X Special ball on its HOP_LEFT tile.

-## Anbernic RG34XXSP (Stock OS 64-bit MOD)
+### A note on Windows Defender warnings
 
-Download `gen1recomp-*-rg34xxsp-stockos64-mod.zip` from
-[Releases](https://github.com/bryanthaboi/gen1recomp/releases). This build
-targets **Stock OS 64-bit MOD** on the RG34XXSP with PortMaster installed
-(TF1).
-
-1. Unzip the release on your computer. You get `Gen1recomp.sh` and a
-   `gen1recomp/` folder.
-2. Copy **both** onto the SD card under **`Roms/PORTS/`** so the layout is:
-
-   ```
-   Roms/PORTS/Gen1recomp.sh
-   Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/
-   ```
-
-   On the device that path is `/mnt/mmc/Roms/PORTS/`. Keep the launcher and
-   the `gen1recomp/` folder as siblings — do not nest the `.sh` inside the
-   folder.
-3. Put your legal US Red and/or Blue `.gb` files inside the game folder:
-
-   ```
-   Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/lovegame/
-   ```
-
-   Example: `Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/lovegame/Pokemon - Red Version.gb`
-4. Eject the card, boot the handheld, open **Ports → Gen1recomp**.
-5. On the launcher, move the cursor with the D-pad or left stick, press **A**
-   to click. Choose the Red or Blue tab, then **Choose ROM** — with no file
-   picker on stock OS, that scans `lovegame/` for the `.gb` you dropped in.
-
-After import, saves and the ROM-derived cache stay next to the game on the
-SD card (`portable.txt`).
+Windows Defender sometimes flags the Windows build with a generic
+machine-learning detection such as `Trojan:Win32/Wacatac!ml` (#621). This is
+a known false positive: the exe is the official LÖVE runtime with the game
+archive appended (the standard way LÖVE games ship), and Defender's
+heuristics distrust unsigned executables with appended data. Every release
+publishes SHA-256 checksums (`sha256sums.txt`) so you can verify your
+download, and you can confirm a flagged file yourself on
+[VirusTotal](https://www.virustotal.com), where these builds come back clean
+on every engine except Defender's heuristic. False positives are reported to
+Microsoft as they come up.

+## Linux on arm64 (Raspberry Pi)
+
+Alongside the x86_64 `gen1recomp-*-linux.zip`, every release ships
+`gen1recomp-*-linux-arm64.AppImage` for 64-bit ARM desktop Linux — Raspberry
+Pi 4/5, Armbian and other SBC distros, and arm64 VMs on Apple Silicon:
+
+```sh
+chmod +x gen1recomp-*-linux-arm64.AppImage
+./gen1recomp-*-linux-arm64.AppImage
+```
+
+LÖVE publishes no aarch64 binary of any kind, so this artifact compiles the
+engine — and SDL2, OpenAL and the codecs — from source inside a Debian
+bullseye arm64 container. It needs only glibc 2.29+, libstdc++, freetype and
+zlib on the host; OpenGL, X11, Wayland, KMSDRM, ALSA and PulseAudio are all
+dlopened, so the same image runs on a full desktop, a Wayland-only session or
+a KMSDRM handheld with no X server. Build instructions and the reasoning are
+in [docs/linux-arm64-build.md](docs/linux-arm64-build.md).
+
+
+## iOS
+
+Every release ships `gen1recomp-*-ios.ipa`. Sideload it with AltStore
+(Windows or Mac) — see [docs/ios-sideload.md](docs/ios-sideload.md). To

+## Xbox Dev Mode
+
+Every release ships `gen1recomp-*-xbox-uwp.zip` for Xbox One and Xbox Series
+consoles in Developer Mode. It cannot be installed in retail mode.
+
+Extract the archive, then use Xbox Device Portal to install the `.msix` and
+the x64 package under `Dependencies`.
+
+### External setup
+
+1. Put your legally obtained Red, Blue, or Yellow ROMs on an external drive.
+   Mod ZIPs can go on the same drive.
+2. Connect the drive to the Xbox and open Gen1Recomp.
+3. Select **Import ROM** or **Import Mod**, then choose the file with the Xbox
+   file picker.
+4. Repeat the ROM import for each version you want to use.
+
+### Internal setup
+
+1. Create a folder named `baseroms` on your PC and place your legally obtained
+   Red, Blue, or Yellow ROMs inside it.
+2. ZIP the folder, keeping `baseroms` at the top level of the archive.
+3. Launch Gen1Recomp once, then close it.
+4. Open Xbox Device Portal and upload the ZIP to
+   `Gen1Recomp/LocalState/pokemon-love2d/`.
+5. Choose **Yes** when Device Portal asks whether to extract the archive.
+6. Open Gen1Recomp. The launcher checks baseroms once at startup. When it finds a compatible ROM, that game’s tab shows ROM FOUND and an Import detected ROM button.
+
+ROMs, generated game data, saves, and mods remain in LocalState and are not
+included in the app.
+
+Source builds and package details are covered in
+[the Xbox UWP build notes](ports/uwp/BUILD.md).
+
+## Handhelds
+
+A PortMaster-style port for the **Anbernic RG34XXSP** on Stock OS 64-bit MOD

+
+Download `gen1recomp-*-rg34xxsp-stockos64-mod.zip` from
+[Releases](https://github.com/bryanthaboi/gen1recomp/releases). This build
+targets **Stock OS 64-bit MOD** on the RG34XXSP with PortMaster installed
+(TF1).
+
+## Install
+
+1. Unzip the release on your computer. You get `Gen1recomp.sh` and a
+   `gen1recomp/` folder.
+2. Copy **both** onto the SD card under **`Roms/PORTS/`** so the layout is:
+
+   ```
+   Roms/PORTS/Gen1recomp.sh
+   Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/
+   ```
+
+   On the device that path is `/mnt/mmc/Roms/PORTS/`. Keep the launcher and
+   the `gen1recomp/` folder as siblings — do not nest the `.sh` inside the
+   folder.
+3. Put your legal US Red and/or Blue `.gb` files inside the game folder:
+

+
+## Notes
+
+**GBC FX is off on this device.** The launcher exports `POKEPORT_GBCFX=0`,
+which hides the GBC FX row from OPTIONS, pins the level to OFF, and clears a
+level carried over in an `options.lua` from another machine. The H700's Mali
+GPU is in the same class as the phone GPUs that compile that present pass and
+then show a black frame (issue #136), and `love.system.getOS()` reports
+`"Linux"` here, so the Android gate would not have caught it. Every other
+display option — COLORS, TILT, ZOOM, VOID FILL, MAX FPS — works normally. If
+your device turns out to handle the pass, launch with `POKEPORT_GBCFX=1` to
+put the row back.
+
+**PERFORMANCE defaults to LOW here.** The OPTIONS → PERFORMANCE tier defaults
+to AUTO, which reads this device as an ARM Linux handheld and resolves to
+**LOW**: the 3D tilt and survey zoom stay off and the frame rate is capped,
+so the overworld runs smoothly on the H700 out of the box. Bump it to
+BALANCED or HIGH from OPTIONS if you want the extras and your device keeps
+up; see [Performance tier](new-features.md#performance-tier-low-end-devices).
+
+The pack bundles the LÖVE 11.5 aarch64 runtime from
+[PortMaster](https://portmaster.games/), so the device does not need a
+separate `love_11.5` runtime download on first launch. The launcher resolves
+paths relative to its own directory rather than PortMaster's `$directory`,
+because stock Anbernic firmware runs ports out of `roms/PORTS/` with its own
+casing and mount points.
+
+If a launch fails, `Roms/PORTS/gen1recomp/log.txt` holds the output of the
+last run.
+
+## Building the port

+local testing.

-# Building a Blue Version of the port
-
-pokered builds Red and Blue from one source tree: the Makefile
-assembles everything twice with `rgbasm -D _RED` or `-D _BLUE`, and
-every in-game difference sits in an `IF DEF(_RED)` / `IF DEF(_BLUE)`
-block. Our extraction pipeline resolves those conditionals the same
-way (`tools/extract/util.py` `ASM_DEFINES`), so most of a Blue build
-falls out of re-running the extractors. Only three things are
-hand-ported on the Lua side and need swapping by hand.
-
-## What differs between Red and Blue
-
-| Where (pokered) | What |
-| --- | --- |
-| `data/wild/maps/*.asm` (34 files) | Version-exclusive encounters (Red: Ekans, Oddish, Growlithe, Mankey, Scyther, Electabuzz,  Blue: Sandshrew, Bellsprout, Vulpix, Meowth, Pinsir, Magmar) |
-| `data/pokemon/title_mons.asm` | The 16 title-screen Pokémon |
-| `engine/movie/title.asm` + `gfx/version.asm` | The "Red Version" / "Blue Version" ribbon |
-| `constants/player_constants.asm` | Preset names (Red: RED/ASH/JACK + BLUE/GARY/JOHN) |
-| `data/sgb/sgb_palettes.asm`, `sgb_border.asm` | Super Game Boy palettes and border |
-| `data/events/prizes.asm`, `prize_mon_levels.asm` | Game Corner prize mons, costs and levels |
-| `engine/movie/intro.asm`, `data/credits/credits_text.asm`, `engine/slots/slot_machine.asm`, `engine/battle/animations.asm`, `audio/sfx/save_3.asm` | Small gated tweaks (credits say "BLUE VERSION STAFF", etc.) |
-
-## Step 1,  flip the extraction define
-
-`tools/extract/util.py`:
-
-```python
-ASM_DEFINES = {"_RED"}   # -> {"_BLUE"}
-```
-
-Then regenerate everything (same as scripts/setup.sh does):
-
-```sh
-cd tools
-../.venv/bin/python3 build_data.py \
-    --pokered /Users/bryanbassett/Documents/development/pokered \
-    --out ../data/generated --assets ../assets/generated
-```
-
-This alone switches the wild encounters, preset names, SGB palettes
-and credits text. **Caveat:** `parse_preset_names` sanity-checks in
-`tools/extract/field.py:1193` expect "RED" in the player presets, 
-relax that check for a Blue build (Blue's presets are BLUE/GARY/JOHN
-for the player and RED/ASH/JACK for the rival).
-
-`tools/extract/palettes.py` uses its own raw reader with hardcoded
-`IF DEF(_BLUE)` skipping (around line 44),  invert that too, or port
-it to `read_asm` so `ASM_DEFINES` covers it.
-
-## Step 2,  title screen (hand-ported)
-
-`src/ui/TitleState.lua`:
-
-1. **Ribbon art.** The extractor writes
-   `assets/generated/title/red_version.png`; add `blue_version.png`
-   to `gfx.extract_title` in `tools/extract/gfx.py` (source:
-   `gfx/title/blue_version.png`, 64×8). In `TitleState:draw()`, the
-   Red strip needs two quads (tiles 0–1 "Red", skip, tiles 5–9
-   "Version",  `title.asm` `VersionOnTitleScreenText`). Blue's strip
-   prints its tiles contiguously (`db $61..$68`), so draw the whole
-   64×8 image at px (56, 64) and verify with the title driver
-   screenshot.
-
-2. **Title mons.** Replace `CYCLE_SPECIES` with Blue's list from
-   `data/pokemon/title_mons.asm`:
-
-   ```lua
-   local CYCLE_SPECIES = {
-     "SQUIRTLE", "CHARMANDER", "BULBASAUR", "MANKEY", "HITMONLEE",
-     "VULPIX", "CHANSEY", "AERODACTYL", "JOLTEON", "SNORLAX",
-     "GLOOM", "POLIWAG", "DODUO", "PORYGON", "GENGAR", "RAICHU",
-   }
-   ```
-
-## Step 3,  Game Corner prizes (hand-ported)
-
-`data/scripts/story3.lua` (~line 209) carries the Red prize tables.
-Blue's values (`prizes.asm` + `prize_mon_levels.asm`):
-
-| Prize | Cost | Level |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| ABRA | 120 | 6 |
-| CLEFAIRY | 750 | 12 |
-| NIDORINO | 1200 | 17 |
-| PINSIR | 2500 | 20 |
-| DRATINI | 4600 | 24 |
-| PORYGON | 6500 | 18 |
-
-(TM prizes are identical in both versions.)
-
-## Step 4,  verify
-
-```sh
-luajit tests/run_tests.lua
-```
-
-Plus two spot checks:
-
-```sh
-# every grass table must have exactly 10 slots (a conditional-parsing
-# regression shows up as 19–20 slots)
-luajit -e 'local e=dofile("data/generated/encounters.lua")
-for m,d in pairs(e) do if type(d)=="table" and d.grass and #d.grass.slots>0
-  and #d.grass.slots~=10 then print("BAD",m,#d.grass.slots) end end'
-
-# a Blue exclusive should now appear (and Growlithe should not)
-grep -c VULPIX data/generated/encounters.lua
-grep -c GROWLITHE data/generated/encounters.lua
-```
-
-Title screenshot: run the driver in
-`tests/drivers/` style (`SHOT_DIR=... POKEPORT_DRIVER=... love .`) and
-eyeball the ribbon, title mon, and copyright row.
-
-## What you get for free / what to skip
-
-- Free after re-extraction: encounters (incl. Super Rod groups), SGB
-  palettes, preset names, credits text, the gated sfx/animation
-  tweaks.
-- Trades, gift Pokémon, story scripts, gym data: identical in Western
-  Red/Blue,  nothing to touch.
-- Save files: a Red save loads fine, but dex AREA nests and new
-  encounters will be Blue's. Trainer parties are identical.
-
-## Making it a runtime toggle instead
-
-If you want one build with both versions, extraction would need to
-emit both branches keyed by version (e.g. `slots` / `slotsBlue`) and
-the three hand-ported spots would read a `save.version` or
-`conf.lua` flag. That is a bigger change than the rebuild above, 
-the flip-and-regenerate route needs no engine changes at all.

+# Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal: A Systematic Engine, ASM, and Behavioral Comparison
+
+## Executive summary
+
+Pokémon Gold and Silver are best understood as **two data-configured builds of one engine**, whereas Pokémon Crystal is an **expanded, reorganized, Color-only derivative of that engine**. The `pret/pokegold` repository reproducibly builds the international Gold and Silver ROMs byte-for-byte, while `pret/pokecrystal` separately builds multiple international Crystal revisions and debug artifacts. This makes the two repositories unusually strong primary evidence: their output hashes correspond to known retail binaries rather than merely reimplementing observed behavior.
+
+The largest technical conclusion is that Crystal is **not a ground-up engine rewrite**. Core subsystems (the frame-driven sound interpreter, hardware-derived RNG, synchronized link-battle PRNG, wild-encounter probability machinery, party-mon record size, and much of the RTC pipeline) remain recognizably inherited from Gold/Silver. Crystal instead adds new ROM banks, reorganizes routines, introduces Color-specific rendering paths, fills formerly reserved fields in Pokémon records, redesigns SRAM placement, and layers Battle Tower, Mobile System GB, animated sprites, the female protagonist, Buena, Move Tutor, Suicune story logic, and Virtual Console hooks around the inherited core.
+
+The most important behavioral differences are therefore caused less by wholesale algorithm replacement than by **changed control flow and data**:
+
+| Area | Gold and Silver | Crystal | Technical consequence |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Edition structure | One shared engine with edition-selected encounter, sprite, title, and other data | One enhanced-version build with regional/revision conditionals | Gold-to-Silver ports are mostly data substitutions; Gold/Silver-to-Crystal ports are architectural merges |
+| Display target | Runtime distinguishes DMG/SGB/CGB modes | Explicit Color-only path | Crystal code can assume CGB palettes, VRAM banking, and related presentation behavior more aggressively |
+| RNG core | Divider-register accumulator plus synchronized link PRNG | Same algorithms | Different outcomes normally arise from different call timing or paths, not a different generator |
+| Party records | Two bytes after Pokérus are reserved | Those same bytes become caught-time/gender/level/location metadata | Pokémon records remain structurally compatible despite Crystal gaining metadata |
+| Save layout | Main and backup data are fragmented among SRAM sections | Main and backup records become more contiguous; Crystal/Battle Tower/Mobile blocks are added | Whole `.sav` files are not drop-in interchangeable |
+| Battles | Standard Gen II battle engine | Inherited engine plus Battle Tower branches and selective bug fixes | Link-compatible behavior is intentionally retained in some otherwise-fixed cases |
+| Roaming Pokémon | Raikou, Entei, and Suicune use the roaming system | Only Raikou and Entei roam; Suicune becomes a scripted encounter | Encounter-state conversion requires special handling |
+| Graphics | Static Pokémon fronts and DMG/SGB-compatible layouts | Animated fronts, revised sprites, richer Color layouts | Animation introduces new graphics data, decompression, frame, and timing requirements |
+| Audio | Shared four-channel Game Boy music interpreter | Same interpreter plus new songs and call sites | Music ports are mostly data/pointer work rather than synthesizer rewrites |
+| Major fixed defects | Coin Case arbitrary code execution, first-save Hall of Fame corruption, Lucky Number box limit, and several map/text defects | Corrected | Crystal is safer, but not "bug-fixed Gen II" in the broad sense |
+| Persistent defects | Many Gen II battle, capture, item, and badge defects | Many remain | Mechanical compatibility often outweighed cleanup |
+
+Gold and Silver themselves have almost no meaningful engine-level divergence. Their scientifically interesting comparison is principally **which tables and assets are selected at assembly time**. Crystal is the meaningful engine comparison.
+
+The report assumes a technically literate audience familiar with low-level programming but not necessarily Game Boy internals. Unless explicitly stated, "Crystal" means the international English code represented by `pret/pokecrystal`; Japanese Mobile System GB and Australian/revision-specific behavior are treated as regional variants. "Scientific" here means reproducible binary-derived comparison, explicit source hierarchy, and separation of direct evidence from inference, not laboratory experimentation involving original development source code, which has not been publicly released.
+
+## Scope, evidence, and reproducibility
+
+### Source hierarchy
+
+The strongest sources are the two pret disassemblies:
+
+- [`pret/pokegold`](https://github.com/pret/pokegold), which builds exact Gold and Silver international ROM images.
+- [`pret/pokecrystal`](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal), which builds Crystal international v1.0, v1.1, Australian, and debug images.
+
+The repositories identify exact SHA-1 outputs. Gold builds to `d8b8a3600a465308c9953dfa04f0081c05bdcb94`, Silver to `49b163f7e57702bc939d642a18f591de55d92dae`, Crystal international v1.0 to `f4cd194bdee0d04ca4eac29e09b8e4e9d818c133`, and Crystal international v1.1 to `f2f52230b536214ef7c9924f483392993e226cfb`. Those reproducible identities are critical: a label such as `BadgeStatBoosts` is a reverse-engineered name, but the emitted bytes and resulting behavior are those of the retail ROM.
+
+Secondary sources such as Bulbapedia and Serebii are useful for player-visible cross-checking, release differences, encounter availability, and historical context. The pret bug documents are stronger than ordinary wiki summaries for defects because they identify the responsible instructions and provide corrective diffs. Official Nintendo and Pokémon sources are most valuable for release/Virtual Console behavior and supported transfer paths, but they do not publish the games' assembly architecture.
+
+### Reproducible comparison method
+
+A rigorous comparison should operate at four levels:
+
+| Level | Method | What it establishes | Main limitation |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Binary identity | Build each repository with its pinned RGBDS-compatible toolchain and verify SHA-1 | The source corresponds to the target retail ROM | Does not explain why bytes differ |
+| Source topology | Compare `main.asm`, `home.asm`, bank sections, include graphs, WRAM/SRAM declarations | Architectural additions, removals, and relocation | File organization can change without behavioral change |
+| Routine semantics | Compare labels, branches, register use, calls, data offsets, and side effects | Control-flow and algorithmic differences | Labels and comments are community-derived |
+| Behavioral validation | Run controlled emulator tests with trace logging and fixed input timing | Observable consequences and RNG/cycle sensitivity | Emulator accuracy and RTC state must be controlled |
+
+For a formal experiment, the recommended independent variables are edition, ROM revision, initial SRAM, RTC register state, boot hardware mode, input sequence, and link mode. Dependent variables include RNG bytes, encounter choice, battle result, SRAM writes, audio commands, VRAM/OAM writes, and cycle/frame number. Because the ordinary RNG reads the divider register, deterministic comparisons must start from a controlled boot state and reproduce input timing at frame or cycle precision.
+
+### Gold versus Silver as a build-configuration comparison
+
+The fact that `pokegold` emits both Gold and Silver from one repository is itself strong evidence that the two versions share the same broad code architecture. Edition differences are implemented through conditional assembly and alternate data or assets rather than through separate engines. The obvious behavioral results are version-specific wild Pokémon, title graphics, mascot-facing presentation, and selected NPC or table data; battle arithmetic, saves, RTC processing, audio interpretation, and link handling come from the same shared source.
+
+This distinction matters for analysis. Treating Gold, Silver, and Crystal as three equally separate engines exaggerates Gold/Silver differences and understates Crystal's structural changes. A better model is:
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    GSC[Generation II design and data model]
+    GS[Gold/Silver shared engine]
+    GD[Gold-selected data and assets]

+
+    GSC --> GS
+    GS --> GD

+```
+
+## ROM and engine architecture
+
+### Banked execution model
+
+The games execute on the Game Boy's LR35902-class CPU and are organized around a fixed home bank plus switchable ROM banks. Calls across banks generally pass through wrappers that save the current bank, select the target bank, call the routine, and restore the original bank. The `BattleRandom` wrapper is a concise example: `_BattleRandom` resides outside the home bank, so the wrapper saves `hROMBank`, uses the bank-switch restart vector, calls the routine, preserves its return value, and restores the previous bank.
+
+```asm
+BattleRandom::
+    ldh a, [hROMBank]
+    push af
+    ld a, BANK(_BattleRandom)
+    rst Bankswitch
+    call _BattleRandom
+    ...
+    pop af
+    rst Bankswitch
+    ret
+```
+
+Relevant sources: [Gold/Silver `home/random.asm`](https://github.com/pret/pokegold/blob/a0dad0957ac8a9ffa67e950ee3ab6715a212ded5/home/random.asm#L29-L46) and [Crystal `home/random.asm`](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/8e8f7e20052a596371a77022f0392c285e51bbf1/home/random.asm#L29-L46).
+
+The repositories' top-level `main.asm` files are effectively link manifests for this architecture. Gold/Silver's file groups the battle core, encounters, party menu, RTC, phone, Pokégear, sprite animation, graphics loading, and other systems into named ROM sections. Crystal retains those categories but adds explicitly named feature sections and many additional modules.
+
+### Crystal as an extension and bank-layout rewrite
+
+Crystal's `main.asm` introduces a conspicuous `Crystal Features 1` section containing gender initialization, Kris-specific bag handling, Move Tutor, Crystal layouts, Celebi logic, the redesigned main menu, Mobile menu code, owned-Pokémon search, and Buena's menu. Nearby banks add Battle Tower trainer logic, caught-data handling, a revised stats screen, sliding battle intros, battle-scene checks, and the Color-only startup screen.
+
+That include topology supports three conclusions.
+
+First, Crystal preserves **vertical subsystem continuity**. The battle engine is still `engine/battle/core.asm`; encounters remain `engine/overworld/wildmons.asm`; Pokémon records still derive from the same party/box macros; and audio is still driven by the same interpreter.
+
+Second, Crystal adds **horizontal feature coupling**. Battle Tower touches battle setup, stat boosts, experience rules, saving, menus, SRAM, trainers, music, and link-like constraints. The female protagonist touches initialization, sprites, bag graphics, caught metadata, and menu presentation. Mobile support touches interrupts, SRAM, menus, communications, rankings, and audio.
+
+Third, code and data relocation is substantial enough that raw ROM addresses from Gold/Silver cannot generally be transplanted into Crystal. A symbolic port based on labels and structures is practical; a patch based on absolute offsets is brittle.

+
+The line counts of several Crystal files are larger, but line count alone is not a behavioral metric; comments, label quality, and source refactoring affect it. The stronger evidence is the presence of new branches, fields, tables, and externally observable side effects.
+
+### Hardware-mode divergence
+
+Gold/Silver initialization tests whether the console is a Game Boy Color and maintains non-CGB paths, including Super Game Boy initialization. Crystal includes an explicit `gbc_only.asm` module that displays the incompatibility message on non-CGB hardware. That is not merely marketing metadata: it changes what assumptions later rendering code may safely make about palettes, VRAM banking, and Color hardware.
+
+For a reverse port of Crystal features into Gold/Silver, every CGB-only feature falls into one of three categories: provide a monochrome/SGB fallback, disable it outside CGB mode, or intentionally convert the resulting ROM into a Color-only build. Skipping that decision produces subtle failures rather than one clean compile error: palette attributes, second-bank VRAM data, and tile-upload timing can all be implicated.
+
+## Save, RNG, clock, and entity state
+
+### Save architecture
+
+Gold/Silver divide their main game state into options, three player-data fragments, current-map data, Pokémon data, and a checksum. Backup pieces are distributed among several separately placed SRAM sections. The current PC box is separate, the fourteen inactive boxes occupy exactly two SRAM banks, and mail and Mystery Gift have dedicated regions.
+
+Crystal instead defines a contiguous `sGameData` consisting of player, map, and Pokémon data, pads the region, and stores a checksum. Its backup is similarly grouped. Crystal then adds a GS Ball flag, `sCrystalData`, Battle Tower progress and recent-trainer state, ranking records, Mobile communication data, offers, credentials, and Japanese Mobile-specific buffers. The source explicitly notes that the international `sCrystalData` location differs from Japanese Crystal.
+
+| Save component | Gold/Silver | Crystal |
+|---|---|---|
+| Options and corruption sentinels | Present | Present |
+| Main player/map/Pokémon data | Split into labeled player fragments inside the save region | Grouped into one contiguous main-game block |
+| Main checksum | 16-bit checksum after game data | 16-bit checksum after padded game-data region |
+| Backup | Fragmented among multiple SRAM sections | Consolidated backup game-data block |
+| Current box | Separate `curbox` structure | Separate full `box` structure plus padding |
+| Inactive boxes | Fourteen boxes over two SRAM banks | Same fourteen-box capacity over two banks |
+| Party and mailbox mail | Dedicated primary and backup regions | Same broad model |
+| GS Ball state | Absent | Primary and backup flags |
+| Battle Tower | Absent | Challenge state, streak, previous teams, reward |
+| Mobile/rankings | Absent | Several additional SRAM sections |
+| Full-file compatibility | Gold and Silver are closely related but still edition-specific | Not layout-compatible with Gold/Silver |
+
+Crystal's save routine makes the transactional sequence visible:
+
+```asm
+_SaveGameData:
+    farcall StageRTCTimeForSave
+    farcall BackupMysteryGift
+    call ValidateSave
+    call SaveOptions
+    call SavePlayerData
+    call SavePokemonData
+    call SaveBox
+    call SaveChecksum
+    call ValidateBackupSave
+    ...
+    farcall BackupGSBallFlag
+    farcall SaveRTC
+```
+
+Source: [Crystal `engine/menus/save.asm`](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/8e8f7e20052a596371a77022f0392c285e51bbf1/engine/menus/save.asm#L255-L284). The routine stages RTC state, writes the primary data and box, computes the primary checksum, writes backup data and checksum, backs up party mail and GS Ball state, persists RTC state, and normalizes a completed Battle Tower reward state.
+
+The practical conclusion is precise: **do not migrate a Gold/Silver `.sav` to Crystal by copying the file or the main save block**. A converter should parse symbolic fields, validate checksums and sentinels, copy player/map/Pokémon/box/mail data field by field, initialize Crystal-only state, and regenerate Crystal checksums. Gold-to-Silver conversion is less structurally disruptive, but version-dependent event and encounter state should still be treated deliberately.
+
+### Party and boxed-Pokémon records
+
+One of Crystal's most elegant compatibility decisions is visible at the structure-definition level. In Gold/Silver, the two bytes after `MON_POKERUS` are simply reserved:
+
+```asm
+DEF MON_HAPPINESS rb
+DEF MON_POKERUS   rb
+                  rb_skip 2
+DEF MON_LEVEL     rb
+```
+
+In Crystal, the same positions are assigned to a two-byte caught-data field:
+
+```asm
+DEF MON_HAPPINESS  rb
+DEF MON_POKERUS    rb
+DEF MON_CAUGHTDATA rw
+DEF MON_LEVEL      rb
+```
+
+Sources: [Gold/Silver structure](https://github.com/pret/pokegold/blob/a0dad0957ac8a9ffa67e950ee3ab6715a212ded5/constants/pokemon_data_constants.asm#L83-L101) and [Crystal structure](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/8e8f7e20052a596371a77022f0392c285e51bbf1/constants/pokemon_data_constants.asm#L83-L107).
+
+Crystal packs caught time and trainer gender into one byte and caught level and location into another. Because Game Freak repurposed reserved bytes instead of extending the record, `BOXMON_STRUCT_LENGTH` and `PARTYMON_STRUCT_LENGTH` remain compatible. Gold/Silver can carry those bytes without understanding them; Crystal can interpret them when present. This is a major reason Gen II Pokémon can move among Gold, Silver, and Crystal without a record-size translation layer.
+
+A second structure change appears in the base-species TM/HM compatibility bitset. Gold/Silver size it for `NUM_TM_HM`; Crystal sizes it for `NUM_TM_HM_TUTOR`, accommodating Move Tutor compatibility in the same species-data model. This means a straight copy of Gold/Silver base-stat records into Crystal must account for Crystal's expanded learnability domain even if the visible species stats are unchanged.
+
+### Item and party handling
+
+The basic inventory model (separate item pockets, held-item byte in each Pokémon record, party length of six, PC boxes, mail records, and item-dispatch routines) is inherited. Crystal's changes are concentrated in new consumers and UI behavior: Move Tutor eligibility, gender-specific player presentation, caught metadata, Battle Tower restrictions, and additional event items such as GS Ball state.
+
+Crystal did **not** comprehensively repair the item mechanics. Its documented defects still include Moon Ball not applying its intended multiplier, Love Ball checking the wrong gender relationship, Fast Ball applying to only a few species, three incorrect Heavy Ball weight cases, and status conditions failing to affect capture rate as intended. Those defects live in shared mechanical paths and are important when evaluating a "faithful" engine port: correcting them changes gameplay and may alter deterministic test vectors.
+
+### Ordinary RNG
+
+Gold/Silver and Crystal use the same ordinary RNG routine. It samples the hardware divider register and updates two one-byte accumulators, one by addition-with-carry and one by subtraction-with-carry:
+
+```asm
+ldh a, [rDIV]
+ld b, a
+ldh a, [hRandomAdd]
+adc b
+ldh [hRandomAdd], a
+
+ldh a, [rDIV]
+ld b, a
+ldh a, [hRandomSub]
+sbc b
+ldh [hRandomSub], a
+```
+
+Sources: [Gold/Silver](https://github.com/pret/pokegold/blob/a0dad0957ac8a9ffa67e950ee3ab6715a212ded5/home/random.asm#L13-L27) and [Crystal](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/8e8f7e20052a596371a77022f0392c285e51bbf1/home/random.asm#L13-L27). The files are effectively identical, including the `RandomRange` rejection-sampling routine used to avoid simple modulo bias.
+
+This generator is not a self-contained seeded PRNG in the modern sense. Its output depends on divider phase, previous accumulator state, carry state, VBlank updates, and when the routine is reached. Consequently, adding an animation, menu delay, conditional call, or extra random-consuming feature can alter later outcomes even while the RNG instructions remain unchanged.
+
+### Link-battle PRNG
+
+Battles route randomness through `BattleRandom`. In non-link play, `_BattleRandom` ultimately uses the ordinary RNG. In linked battles, both systems consume a shared ten-byte random sequence and advance bytes with the recurrence:
+
+```
+x[n+1] = (5 * x[n] + 1) mod 256
+```
+
+The Gold/Silver and Crystal battle cores contain the same broad synchronization mechanism.
+
+This has a major compatibility consequence: a battle patch can be logically correct in isolation yet break link play if it causes one participant to make a different number or order of RNG calls. That is why Crystal sometimes preserves Gold/Silver behavior specifically in link battles. Synchronization depends on matching control flow, not merely using the same random-number formula.
+
+### RTC and time-of-day behavior
+
+Both codebases latch the MBC3-style real-time clock, read seconds, minutes, hours, and the low/high day registers, normalize time, add the player's selected starting offset, and derive the current time-of-day state. Crystal's `UpdateTime` remains a short chain of `GetClock`, `FixDays`, `FixTime`, and `GetTimeOfDay`.
+
+Crystal's source shows the day counter reduced modulo 140 for the game's weekly/event model, with status flags distinguishing an RTC count beyond 139 days and a hardware day-high overflow beyond 255 days. The displayed game time is formed by adding the new-game start offsets to RTC values with carry through seconds, minutes, hours, and day.
+
+The notable architectural addition is the Crystal timer interrupt's Mobile dispatch:
+
+```asm
+Timer::
+    push af
+    ldh a, [hMobile]
+    and a
+    jr z, .not_mobile
+    call MobileTimer
+.not_mobile
+    pop af
+    reti
+```
+
+Source: [Crystal `home/time.asm`](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/8e8f7e20052a596371a77022f0392c285e51bbf1/home/time.asm#L2-L11). The ordinary RTC logic remains inherited; Japanese/mobile Crystal adds another timing consumer.
+
+For emulators, flash cartridges, and ports, SRAM alone is insufficient. RTC registers, halt/carry state, elapsed host time, and game offsets must be preserved consistently. A save imported without corresponding RTC state may be structurally valid yet produce incorrect daily events, phone behavior, berries, swarms, day-of-week encounters, or time-dependent evolutions.
+
+## Battles and encounters
+
+### Battle-engine inheritance
+
+The core Gen II battle model is shared: turn selection, speed ordering, accuracy, damage, stat stages, held items, status, volatile effects, experience, capture, AI, and link synchronization follow the same broad engine. Crystal's battle core is larger principally because it adds Battle Tower integration, additional presentation paths, and selective corrections.
+
+Crystal is therefore mechanically closer to a patched and extended Gold/Silver than to a later-generation ruleset. There are no abilities, natures, modern physical/special move split, or rewritten damage model. Its new content operates within Gen II's existing move and Pokémon structures.
+
+### Control-flow difference: Battle Tower exclusions
+
+Gold/Silver's `BadgeStatBoosts` exits for link battles and otherwise applies badge boosts. Crystal adds a second early return when `wInBattleTowerBattle` is nonzero:
+
+```asm
+ld a, [wLinkMode]
+and a
+ret nz
+
+ld a, [wInBattleTowerBattle]
+and a
+ret nz
+```
+
+Source: [Crystal `BadgeStatBoosts`](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/8e8f7e20052a596371a77022f0392c285e51bbf1/engine/battle/core.asm#L6526-L6532). Gold/Silver have only the link-mode guard at the corresponding point.
+
+This tiny six-instruction addition is representative of Crystal's design. The stat algorithm was not replaced; Crystal introduced a new battle context and inserted a guard so adventure-only badge advantages do not leak into the standardized Battle Tower. Similar context checks appear around experience and other post-battle handling.
+
+### Selective fixes constrained by link compatibility
+
+The pret Crystal bug documentation explicitly states that Crystal fixed Gold/Silver's Reflect/Light Screen overflow and Present damage behavior only where doing so would not break ordinary cross-version link battles. Link-mode behavior retains the compatible path.
+
+That is an important historical engineering tradeoff. A fully corrected Crystal battle engine would disagree with Gold/Silver on intermediate values and potentially on RNG consumption, damage, fainting, or message sequence. Compatibility with the installed base was treated as a protocol requirement. Consequently, "Crystal fixed the bug" can mean **fixed in single-player but deliberately retained in linked simulation**.
+
+### Shared and persistent battle defects
+
+Crystal retains a substantial Gen II defect surface. Documented examples include:
+
+| Defect | Mechanical effect | Crystal status |
+|---|---|---|
+| "100%" secondary effects | Fail in 1/256 qualifying cases | Retained |
+| Belly Drum | May maximize Attack even when the HP requirement is not properly met | Retained |
+| Berserk Gene | Confusion duration can become 256 turns or inherit stale state | Retained |
+| Confusion damage | Can receive type-item and Explosion/Self-Destruct modifiers | Retained |
+| Beat Up | Can behave incorrectly and can desynchronize link battles | Retained |
+| Return/Frustration edge | Can produce zero damage at extreme happiness values | Retained |
+| Dragon boosting item | Dragon Scale is checked instead of Dragon Fang | Retained |
+| Glacier Badge | Special Defense boost depends incorrectly on overwritten accumulator state | Retained |
+| Capture status bonus | Burn, poison, and paralysis do not contribute as intended | Retained |
+| Specialty Balls | Multiple Apricorn-ball formulas target the wrong condition or table | Retained |
+
+These are documented against original Crystal code, not inferred from modern competitive summaries.
+
+The Glacier Badge defect is especially instructive at ASM level. The routine shifts a badge bitfield through register `b`, calls `BoostStat`, and later reuses register `a` as if it still contained the expected badge value. `BoostStat` can overwrite `a`, so whether Special Defense receives its boost depends on the Special Attack calculation's resulting register state. The bug survived Crystal even though the source gained an explicit comment identifying it.
+
+### Gold/Silver defects corrected in Crystal
+
+The `pokegold` bug document separates defects fixed in Crystal from defects still shared with it. It identifies seven clear Gold/Silver corrections: Coin Case arbitrary code execution, Hall of Fame corruption when no prior save exists, Lucky Number failure to inspect boxes 10-14, Present text overflow, surfing onto NPCs, fishing inside Cerulean Gym, and Route 15 capitalization.
+
+The Coin Case correction is one bytecode-level terminator change:
+
+```diff
+ text "Coins:"
+ line "@"
+ text_decimal wCoins, 2, 4
+-done
++text_end
+```
+
+Source: [`pokegold/docs/bugs_and_glitches.md`](https://github.com/pret/pokegold/blob/a0dad0957ac8a9ffa67e950ee3ab6715a212ded5/docs/bugs_and_glitches.md#L20-L34). The Gold/Silver terminator permits text-command execution to continue into unintended memory under exploitable conditions; Crystal ends the text stream correctly.
+
+The Hall of Fame correction adds a saved-at-least-once check and erases/initializes previous-save structures before attempting the Hall of Fame write. The Lucky Number correction changes the loop bound from the Japanese box count constant to the international fourteen-box count. Both are good examples of Crystal correcting localization-sensitive state assumptions rather than changing game design.
+
+### Encounter-rate algorithm
+
+Gold/Silver and Crystal use essentially the same high-level encounter pipeline:
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TD
+    STEP[Eligible movement step]
+    RATE[Read morning/day/night or water rate]
+    MOD1[Apply radio modifier]
+    MOD2[Apply Cleanse Tag modifier]
+    ROLL[Call Random and compare with rate]
+    SLOT[Choose encounter slot]
+    ROAM[Check roaming Pokémon]
+    REPEL[Apply Repel level check]
+    BATTLE[Stage wild battle]
+
+    STEP --> RATE --> MOD1 --> MOD2 --> ROLL
+    ROLL -->|pass| SLOT
+    SLOT --> ROAM
+    ROAM --> REPEL
+    REPEL --> BATTLE
+```
+
+In both engines, `TryWildEncounter` gets the map rate, applies Pokémon March/Ruins of Alph doubling or Pokémon Lullaby halving, applies Cleanse Tag halving, draws an RNG byte, chooses a slot from grass or water probability tables, and checks Repel.
+
+Grass records contain separate morning, day, and night slot blocks; the active block is selected through `wTimeOfDay`. Water uses a separate rate and three-slot table. The structure constants remain seven grass slots and three water slots in both codebases.
+
+### Encounter-table differences
+
+Gold and Silver primarily diverge through edition-conditioned tables. Crystal has its own consolidated tables and changes both availability and placement. It makes several former Gold/Silver exclusives obtainable in one edition, while removing some species available in both base versions; Mareep's evolutionary family is a prominent Crystal omission. Crystal also moves species such as Sneasel to different locations.
+
+The engine/table distinction is important. An encounter may differ because:
+
+1. the map's encounter-rate byte changed;
+2. a morning/day/night slot changed;
+3. the slot's level changed;
+4. a swarm override changed;
+5. a roaming Pokémon was removed from the roaming subsystem;
+6. the map itself gained or lost encounter-enabled tiles.
+
+A robust diff should therefore compare map headers, wild tables, swarm flags, and roaming initialization, not merely produce a Pokédex availability list.
+
+### Swarms and roaming state
+
+Gold/Silver's swarm lookup is comparatively generic: it compares the current map against `wSwarmMapGroup` and `wSwarmMapNumber`. Crystal's code has explicit Dunsparce and Yanma swarm flags and corresponding map state. That is a data-model specialization, not just a changed encounter table.
+
+The roaming difference is even clearer. Gold/Silver initialize three records:
+
+```asm
+ld a, RAIKOU
+ld [wRoamMon1Species], a
+ld a, ENTEI
+ld [wRoamMon2Species], a
+ld a, SUICUNE
+ld [wRoamMon3Species], a
+```
+
+Crystal initializes only Raikou and Entei:
+
+```asm
+ld a, RAIKOU
+ld [wRoamMon1Species], a
+ld a, ENTEI
+ld [wRoamMon2Species], a
+```
+
+Sources: [Gold/Silver `InitRoamMons`](https://github.com/pret/pokegold/blob/a0dad0957ac8a9ffa67e950ee3ab6715a212ded5/engine/overworld/wildmons.asm#L471-L511) and [Crystal `InitRoamMons`](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/8e8f7e20052a596371a77022f0392c285e51bbf1/engine/overworld/wildmons.asm#L476-L506).
+
+Gold/Silver's subsequent selection logic describes an equal choice among three beasts after the roaming check succeeds; Crystal changes the corresponding comment and index range to two. Suicune's removal is tied to Crystal's expanded Eusine/Suicune plot and scripted Tin Tower encounter.
+
+For save conversion, a Gold/Silver Suicune roaming record cannot simply remain active in Crystal. The converter must map capture/defeat/event state into Crystal's scripted Suicune flags or deliberately define a hybrid behavior.
+
+## Graphics and audio
+
+### Tile, palette, and sprite model
+
+All three games retain the Game Boy's tile-oriented rendering model: graphics are stored as compact tile data, decompressed or copied into VRAM, arranged through background/window tilemaps, and supplemented by hardware sprites through shadow OAM. Pokémon and many UI images use four-color source palettes, with separate palette data determining their actual colors. The pokecrystal FAQ explicitly notes the four-color paletted-PNG convention and the distinction between image data and palette data.
+
+Gold/Silver must support original Game Boy-style output and Super Game Boy behavior as well as Game Boy Color enhancements. Crystal's explicit Color-only startup path lets it make stronger use of CGB layout and palette machinery. Its top-level architecture adds `crystal_layouts.asm`, dedicated player graphics, revised map and battle presentation, and other CGB-focused modules.
+
+### Animated Pokémon sprites
+
+Crystal's headline renderer change is animated front sprites. Every Pokémon receives an entrance animation, and the status/profile viewer can play a longer animation; several designs, palettes, and back sprites were also revised. Crystal additionally gives the legendary beasts distinct overworld sprites and introduces richer trade-screen presentation.
+
+At the engine level, this requires more than storing extra frames. A full animation path needs:
+
+- a base front picture and additional frame or bitmask data;
+- frame sequencing and duration state;
+- tile-buffer reconstruction or differential tile updates;
+- synchronization with battle intro control flow;
+- palette and VRAM updates during safe LCD periods;
+- fallback behavior for static contexts such as link displays or icons.
+
+Crystal's `load_pics.asm` is correspondingly larger and is integrated with dedicated animation and battle-intro modules, while Gold/Silver's loader primarily services static front/back pictures. The exact file-size difference should not be treated as a performance measurement, but the added code paths confirm a broader graphics pipeline.
+
+Animated fronts can also alter RNG-observable timing indirectly. The ordinary RNG is updated from divider timing and VBlank activity; therefore, any test that compares post-animation random outcomes must control whether animations are enabled and how many frames elapsed. This is an inference from the animation and RNG architectures, not evidence that every animation directly invokes `Random`.
+
+### Color and protagonist handling
+
+Crystal adds player-gender initialization and Kris-specific bag/player graphics. The Pokémon record's caught-data bits can record whether the catcher was the boy or girl protagonist. This is an example of a feature spanning UI, overworld sprites, menus, Pokémon metadata, and save state rather than existing in one isolated "female player" switch.
+
+A Crystal-to-Gold/Silver backport must decide how to handle caught-by-girl metadata when Gold/Silver have no female protagonist UI. Structurally the bytes can survive because they were reserved, but Gold/Silver will not natively display or generate the metadata.
+
+### Sound-engine architecture
+
+The most striking audio result is how little the interpreter changed. Both repositories' `audio/engine.asm` identify themselves as the entire sound engine, update once per frame, parse music commands, maintain eight software channel structures (four music and four sound-effect channels), and ultimately drive the four Game Boy audio channels. Both implementations handle duty, envelope, frequency, vibrato, noise sampling, channel muting, low-health sound, and fades through the same broad code.
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart LR
+    SONG[Song bytecode]
+    PARSE[ParseMusic]
+    STATE[Per-channel WRAM state]
+    FX[Vibrato / pitch / envelope / noise]
+    MIX[Music-SFX priority and routing]
+    APU[Game Boy audio registers]
+
+    SONG --> PARSE --> STATE --> FX --> MIX --> APU
+```
+
+Crystal therefore does not introduce a new synthesizer. It extends the music corpus and invokes new songs in new contexts.
+
+### Crystal's additional music
+
+Gold/Silver's song pointer table ends at `Music_PostCredits`. Crystal retains that ordering and appends ten entries:
+
+| Crystal-only pointer entry | Use |
+|---|---|
+| `Music_Clair` | Clair-related scene |
+| `Music_MobileAdapterMenu` | Japanese Mobile menu |
+| `Music_MobileAdapter` | Mobile connectivity |
+| `Music_BuenasPassword` | Buena's Password |
+| `Music_LookMysticalMan` | Eusine encounter |
+| `Music_CrystalOpening` | Revised opening |
+| `Music_BattleTowerTheme` | Battle Tower battle/context |
+| `Music_SuicuneBattle` | Legendary-beast/Suicune battle theme |
+| `Music_BattleTowerLobby` | Battle Tower lobby |
+| `Music_MobileCenter` | Japanese Mobile Center |
+
+The pointer table labels these explicitly as "new to Crystal."
+
+Bulbapedia independently notes that Crystal gives the legendary beasts a unique battle theme and presents it as the first core-series special legendary battle music.
+
+From a porting perspective, bringing Crystal music into Gold/Silver primarily requires assigning ROM space, importing sequence data, adding pointer/constants entries, and adding selection call sites. Replacing the audio engine is generally unnecessary. However, preserving existing numeric song IDs is wise because map headers, scripts, battle setup, radio state, and fades refer to those constants.
+
+## Bugs, compatibility, porting, and reverse-engineering timeline
+
+### Bug and quirk matrix
+
+| Category | Gold/Silver | Crystal | Engineering interpretation |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Coin Case text terminator | Exploitable continuation can permit arbitrary code execution | Correct terminator | Parser/data correction |
+| First-save Hall of Fame | Can corrupt PC boxes | Guard and initialization added | Save-state precondition correction |
+| Lucky Number boxes | International boxes 10-14 omitted | Uses full box count | Localization constant corrected |
+| Surf onto NPC | Possible | Facing-object check added | Collision precondition corrected |
+| Cerulean Gym fishing | Enabled by map fish group | Disabled | Map-header data correction |
+| Reflect/Light Screen overflow | Incorrect | Fixed outside compatible link path | Context-dependent battle fix |
+| Present damage | Incorrect | Fixed outside compatible link path | Protocol-preserving fix |
+| Glacier Badge Special Defense | Bugged | Still bugged | Shared inherited defect |
+| Apricorn specialty balls | Multiple formula defects | Still defective | Shared inherited mechanics |
+| Beat Up synchronization | Vulnerable | Still vulnerable | Shared link-engine defect |
+| Secondary-effect 1/256 failure | Present | Present | Shared probability comparison defect |
+| Animated-sprite quirks | Not applicable | New animation-specific defects possible | Feature expansion creates new failure surface |
+
+The Gold/Silver and Crystal bug documents should be read together. The Gold/Silver document intentionally lists only bugs that Crystal fixed; any shared defects are documented in the Crystal repository instead.
+
+Crystal is thus more polished but not mechanically "corrected" in a comprehensive sense. A modern source port must choose a compatibility target:
+
+- **Retail-faithful:** preserve all version-specific bugs and timing.
+- **Crystal-faithful:** preserve Crystal's selective fixes and its link-mode exceptions.
+- **Corrected Gen II:** repair documented defects, accepting that link compatibility and historical RNG traces may change.
+- **Hybrid:** gate corrections behind flags or negotiate them between identical modified link peers.
+
+### ROM revisions and regional code
+
+The Crystal repository builds international v1.0, v1.1, and Australian releases. Its FAQ states that v1.1 corrected some issues in the initial international release, while the Australian build is based on v1.1 and censors gambling references. Thus "Crystal behavior" is not completely singular even within English-language retail ROMs.
+
+A serious test report should always state the target hash rather than merely "Pokémon Crystal." Otherwise, an observed difference may be edition-level, v1.0/v1.1-level, Australian localization, Japanese Mobile code, Virtual Console patching, emulator behavior, or an altered ROM.
+
+### Link and trade compatibility
+
+Gold, Silver, and Crystal share the Gen II Pokémon record length and battle/link architecture, allowing ordinary same-generation trading and battling. The retained two-byte record size, shared `REDMON_STRUCT_LENGTH` conversion constant for Time Capsule interaction, and synchronized battle RNG are all source-level evidence of compatibility-oriented design.
+
+However, three distinct notions of compatibility must not be conflated:
+
+| Compatibility type | Status |
+|---|---|
+| Pokémon record compatibility | Strong: same record length; Crystal fills reserved bytes |
+| Link protocol/battle simulation compatibility | Strong for retail games, partly because Crystal preserves old link behavior |
+| Whole-save-file compatibility | Weak: Crystal's SRAM organization and added state differ substantially |
+| ROM patch-address compatibility | Weak: bank layout and code placement differ |
+| Feature-source portability | Moderate: shared architecture helps, but dependencies are broad |
+| Gen I Time Capsule data compatibility | Supported through dedicated conversion structures and restrictions |
+| Modern transfer compatibility | Supported from 3DS VC releases through Poké Transporter and Pokémon Bank |
+
+Nintendo's support documentation lists the Virtual Console releases of Gold, Silver, and Crystal as compatible with Poké Transporter. Transfers proceed into Pokémon Bank and can then move onward to Pokémon HOME, but that modern path is not a raw Gen II save conversion and is effectively one-way at later stages.
+
+### Virtual Console modifications
+
+Crystal's save code contains an explicit `vc_hook` after Hall of Fame insertion. The hook sets the primary and backup GS Ball flags to make the GS Ball quest and Celebi encounter available, with compile-time assertions pinning the expected SRAM addresses and flag value.
+
+```asm
+vc_hook Enable_GS_Ball_mobile_event
+vc_assert BANK(sGSBallFlag) == $1
+vc_assert BANK(sGSBallFlagBackup) == $1
+```
+
+Source: [Crystal `engine/menus/save.asm`](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/8e8f7e20052a596371a77022f0392c285e51bbf1/engine/menus/save.asm#L157-L167).
+
+This is a fascinating compatibility shim: the original international cartridge retained GS Ball-related structures but lacked the original Japanese distribution path, so the Virtual Console wrapper activates the event through a targeted runtime hook. The Pokémon Company confirms that the Virtual Console version permits the Celebi encounter at Ilex Forest's shrine.
+
+The pret repositories also contain `vc` build material, and community GitHub discussion has addressed preserving or generating Virtual Console patches. A port targeting 3DS VC behavior should therefore compare not only the retail ROM but the external patch/hook layer.
+
+### Japanese Crystal and mapper/SRAM concerns
+
+Crystal's SRAM source reserves several Mobile sections and explicitly comments that a Mobile Easy Chat initialization routine uses an "MBC30 bank" available to Japanese Crystal but inaccessible with ordinary MBC3 behavior. This is direct evidence that regional hardware assumptions matter when emulating or reproducing Japanese Mobile features.
+
+An implementation that supports only the common international MBC3-style SRAM/RTC configuration may run the international game correctly yet fail Japanese Crystal's extended Mobile storage accesses. Conversely, allocating the larger memory blindly does not implement Mobile Adapter protocols, timer behavior, ranking checksums, or server-era workflows.
+
+### Porting guidance
+
+The safest migration strategy between the two disassemblies is subsystem-oriented:
+
+| Port direction | Recommended approach | Main hazard |
+|---|---|---|
+| Gold <-> Silver data | Preserve shared engine; switch edition tables/assets | Conditional data references and event assumptions |
+| Crystal feature -> Gold/Silver | Import feature plus all WRAM/SRAM, graphics, script, audio, and menu dependencies | DMG/SGB fallback and bank-space pressure |
+| Gold/Silver behavior -> Crystal | Replace data or selectively restore old branch | Crystal story/event state may expect new semantics |
+| Gold/Silver save -> Crystal | Parse and rebuild symbolic fields | Relocated blocks and Crystal-only state |
+| Crystal save -> Gold/Silver | Strip Crystal state and preserve common Pokémon/player data | Caught metadata becomes opaque; Suicune/Battle Tower state has no target |
+| Retail battle fix | Gate by non-link mode or require identical modified peers | RNG/control-flow desynchronization |
+| Crystal graphics -> DMG-compatible engine | Create monochrome layouts or make build CGB-only | Palette attributes and animation timing |
+| Japanese Mobile feature port | Emulate mapper, extended SRAM, timer, and communication assumptions | Hardware and defunct-service dependencies |
+
+Bank space is a concrete constraint. The pokecrystal FAQ describes the international ROM as 2 MiB divided across banks and notes that adding features can overflow fixed bank placement, requiring sections to be moved through the linker script. Crystal's extra features already consume carefully arranged banks, so a port that compiles at the object level can still fail at link time.
+
+The deepest practical rule is: **port invariants before routines**. Before copying code, define the target's expected record lengths, bank-switch convention, WRAM variables, SRAM addresses, script command set, palette mode, RNG call contract, and link-mode semantics. Once those invariants match, most inherited Gen II routines are straightforward. Without them, a perfectly copied routine can read the wrong field, switch to the wrong bank, write outside a save block, or desynchronize a link battle.

+
+Gold and Silver launched in Japan on November 21, 1999 and in North America on October 15, 2000; Crystal followed in Japan on December 14, 2000 and internationally in 2001. Gold/Silver reached 3DS Virtual Console in September 2017 and Crystal followed in January 2018.
+
+The current reverse-engineering record is better described as an evolving evidence base than as a single "discovery date." pret's labels, comments, and bug documentation have accumulated over thousands of repository commits, while the exact-build hashes provide a stable anchor to the retail binaries. Crystal's repository currently has substantially more history and feature documentation than `pokegold`, reflecting its role as the community's principal Gen II hacking platform rather than evidence that Crystal's retail source was inherently better documented.
+
+### Final technical assessment
+
+Gold and Silver are functionally sibling configurations of one engine. Their meaningful differences are overwhelmingly table-, asset-, and version-flag-driven. Crystal preserves that engine's defining architecture but turns it into a more specialized platform: Color-only graphics, animated Pokémon, richer event scripting, expanded persistent state, Mobile-era infrastructure, Battle Tower contexts, caught metadata, additional music, and selective defect correction.
+
+At ASM level, the most consequential changes are not usually exotic algorithms. They are small branches with large semantic reach:
+
+- a Battle Tower early return suppresses badge boosts;
+- two reserved Pokémon bytes acquire caught metadata without changing record size;
+- Suicune disappears from `InitRoamMons`;
+- save blocks become reorganized and gain new persistent domains;
+- a text terminator closes the Coin Case execution path;
+- link-mode checks preserve old arithmetic to avoid desynchronization;
+- a Virtual Console hook activates an otherwise inaccessible event;
+- a Mobile timer branch attaches a new subsystem to the interrupt path.
+
+That pattern explains both Crystal's compatibility and its porting difficulty. It remains recognizably the Gold/Silver engine, but its new features are woven through banks, state structures, control-flow conditions, graphics timing, SRAM, scripts, and presentation. The code is cousin-shaped, not copy-paste-shaped: the classic reverse-engineering booby trap wearing a tiny Suicune hat.

+# Gen 2 link play: what it takes
+
+This is a design document, not a feature announcement. Gold cannot link today
+and nothing in this document changes that on its own. What it does is state
+honestly what Gen 2 link play requires, where the Gen 1 protocol in `src/link/`
+stops working on a Gen 2 record, what the cart itself did, and which pieces of
+the work are self-contained enough to have been built already.
+
+The short version: the transport, the handshake and the fingerprint are
+generation-agnostic or nearly so, and those are done. The party wire format is
+half done (a codec exists, nothing sends it). The trade session, the trade UI
+and the lockstep battle are not started, and each is a real piece of work.
+
+Read `docs/mod-api-gen2-compat.md` beside this: it is the reference for what a
+Gold mod may touch, and the link fingerprint's whole job is to hash exactly that
+surface.
+
+## 1. What Gen 1 link play is
+
+`src/link/` is nine files and about four thousand lines:
+
+| File | Job |
+| --- | --- |
+| `Net.lua` | lua-enet transport, LAN host/join plus a relay for online play. JSON messages, no game types. |
+| `CodeEntry.lua` | the online join code widget. |
+| `Handshake.lua` | the `hello` both peers exchange and the compatibility verdict drawn from the two of them. |
+| `Fingerprint.lua` | a deterministic digest of the link surface: the slice of merged Data whose value decides whether two lockstep simulations stay identical. |
+| `Protocol.lua` | mon serialization, the record-subset negotiation, and the trade session state machine. |
+| `LinkState.lua` | the LINK menu, pairing, and the trade/battle hand-off. |
+| `LinkBattle.lua` | lockstep battle: both machines run `src/battle/BattleState.lua` from mirrored perspectives on a shared seed, exchanging one action per turn and a per-turn state hash. |
+| `Tournament.lua` | bracketed online play over the relay. |
+| `Json.lua` | the encoder the wire and several unrelated callers share. |
+
+Only three of those nine are shaped around Gen 1 game content: `Fingerprint`,
+`Protocol` and `LinkBattle`. `Net`, `Json`, `CodeEntry` and most of `Handshake`
+never look at a Pokemon.
+
+## 2. What the cart did
+
+pokegold's link code is `engine/link/link.asm` (2508 lines), and it is worth
+being precise about, because several of the port's design questions have a cart
+answer.
+
+**Three rooms, one wire.** `wLinkMode` is `LINK_TIMECAPSULE`,
+`LINK_TRADECENTER` or `LINK_COLOSSEUM` (`constants/serial_constants.asm`).
+`LinkCommunications` branches once, at the top, on whether the mode is the Time
+Capsule: `Gen2ToGen1LinkComms` for the Time Capsule and `Gen2ToGen2LinkComms`
+for everything else (`engine/link/link.asm:33`). Everything after that branch is
+shared -- the same byte exchange serves trading and battling, and the mode only
+decides what is in the buffer and what the game does afterwards.
+
+**What crosses the wire, in order** (`Gen2ToGen2LinkComms`,
+`engine/link/link.asm:202`):
+
+1. `SERIAL_RN_PREAMBLE_LENGTH + SERIAL_RNS_LENGTH` bytes: the shared battle
+   RNG state. Seven preamble bytes and ten seeds.
+2. `SERIAL_PREAMBLE_LENGTH + NAME_LENGTH + (1 + PARTY_LENGTH + 1) + 2 +
+   (PARTYMON_STRUCT_LENGTH + NAME_LENGTH * 2) * PARTY_LENGTH + 3` bytes: the
+   player name, the party count and species list, the **trainer ID**, six party
+   structs, six OT names and six nicknames.
+3. `SERIAL_PATCH_LIST_LENGTH` bytes: the patch list (see below).
+4. In the Trade Center only, the mail block: six mail messages then six mail
+   metadata structs (`Link_PrepPartyData_Gen2`, `engine/link/link.asm:810`).
+
+**The shared PRNG is the whole trick behind lockstep.** `_BattleRandom`
+(`engine/battle/core.asm:6650`) refuses the normal RNG whenever `wLinkMode` is
+non-zero and pulls from `wLinkBattleRNs` instead: ten seeds, each advanced by
+`a[n+1] = (a[n] * 5 + 1) % 256` when the stream runs out, with the count in
+`wLinkBattleRNCount`. Both machines exchange those ten bytes once, before the
+battle, and never again -- the external-clock side adopts the internal-clock
+side's numbers (`Link_CopyRandomNumbers`, `engine/link/link.asm:1115`). The port
+does the same thing with a Park-Miller stream seeded by the host
+(`LinkBattle.makeRng`), which is the same idea in a different arithmetic.
+
+**The patch list exists because the wire has reserved bytes.**
+`SERIAL_NO_DATA_BYTE` (`$fe`) may not appear in the payload, so
+`FixDataForLinkTransfer` (`engine/link/link.asm:556`) walks the party block,
+replaces every `$fe` with `$ff`, and records the offsets it touched in a
+200-byte list that ships alongside. Mail gets its own smaller version of this in
+`Link_PrepPartyData_Gen2`. The port's wire is JSON over enet and has no reserved
+bytes, so this whole mechanism has no analogue and needs none. It is worth
+knowing about only so nobody reimplements it by accident.
+
+**The Time Capsule is the cart's own answer to a cross-generation link.**
+`CheckTimeCapsuleCompatibility` (`engine/link/link.asm:1970`) refuses the party
+outright for exactly three reasons, and returns which one in `wScriptVar`:
+
+1. a species at or above `JOHTO_POKEMON` (`constants/pokemon_constants.asm:168`,
+   the 152 boundary),
+2. a move above `STRUGGLE`, i.e. any move Gen 1 does not have,
+3. any party member holding mail.
+
+If the party passes, `Link_PrepPartyData_Gen1` (`engine/link/link.asm:640`)
+rewrites every mon into the 44-byte `REDMON_STRUCT_LENGTH` layout:
+`ConvertMon_2to1` remaps the species index through `Pokered_MonIndices`
+(`engine/link/time_capsule_2.asm:1`), the Special stat is recomputed from
+`KantoMonSpecials` because Gen 1 has one Special and Gen 2 has two, and
+Magnemite and Magneton are shipped as pure Electric because their typing changed
+(`engine/link/link.asm:731`). Coming the other way, `Link_ConvertPartyStruct1to2`
+(`engine/link/link.asm:930`) reads the Gen 1 catch rate byte as the held item
+slot -- garbage, which is why `TimeCapsule_ReplaceTeruSama`
+(`engine/link/link.asm:1078`) maps the handful of catch rates that collide with
+real items through `data/items/catch_rate_items.asm` and turns everything else
+into a Berry. `ValidateOTTrademon` (`engine/link/time_capsule.asm:1`) then
+re-checks the incoming mon's types against the local base data and refuses
+anything that does not agree, with Magnemite and Magneton carved out again.
+
+The lesson the port should take from all of that: a cross-generation link is not
+a compatibility mode, it is a lossy conversion with a validator on each end, and
+the cart wrote roughly 400 lines for it. Refusing the pairing is the honest
+default until somebody wants to write those 400 lines.
+
+## 3. Where the Gen 1 protocol breaks on a Gen 2 record
+
+`Protocol.packMon` / `Protocol.unpackMon` are shaped around
+`src/pokemon/Pokemon.lua`. Against `src/battle/gen2/Mon.lua`, every one of these
+is wrong:
+
+| Gen 1 assumption | Gen 2 reality | Where |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `mon.exp` | `mon.experience` | `Mon.new`, `Mon.gainExperience` |
+| five DVs including `special` | four rolled DVs (`attack`/`defense`/`speed`/`special`) with `hp` **derived** from their low bits | `Mon.hpDV` |
+| `special` is one stat | `specialAttack` and `specialDefense` are two stats off one DV | `Mon.stats` |
+| `statExp` has five words | five words still, but the fifth feeds both special stats | `Mon.stats` |
+| no held item | `mon.item` decides damage, healing and flinching | `src/battle/gen2/Battle.lua` `heldEffect` |
+| stats recomputed with `src/pokemon/Stats.lua` | must go through `Mon.stats`, which is a different formula shape | `Mon.stats` |
+| exp curve via `src/pokemon/Growth.lua` (code) | curve coefficients are **data**, at `data.pokemon.growthRates` | `Mon.experienceForLevel` |
+| `mon.status` is `"SLP"` / `"PSN"` / `"BRN"` / `"PAR"` / `"FRZ"` | `"sleep"` / `"poison"` / `"burn"` / `"paralyze"` / `"freeze"` / `"toxic"` | `src/battle/Status.lua:62` vs `src/battle/gen2/Battle.lua:65` |
+| `mv.ppUps` | Gen 2 has no PP Ups modelled yet; moves carry `id`, `pp`, `maxPp` | `Mon.movesAtLevel` |
+| nothing else on the mon | `happiness`, `pokerus`, `caughtLevel`, `isEgg`/`eggSteps`, and the derived `shiny` / `gender` / `unownLetter` | `Mon.new` |
+| mail does not exist | mail is a **separate** block keyed by party slot, not a mon field | `src/core/gen2/Mail.lua:84`, and the cart agrees (`Link_PrepPartyData_Gen2`) |
+
+The status spelling is the sharpest of these. `packMon` puts `mon.status` on the
+wire verbatim and `unpackMon` keeps it verbatim, so a shared codec would move
+`"PSN"` onto a Gold party where nothing recognises it -- a mon that arrives
+"poisoned" and never takes poison damage. Any Gen 2 codec has to be a separate
+function with the generation baked into it, not a Gen 1 function with extra
+optional keys.
+
+Two things are *not* a problem, and it is worth saying so:
+
+- **Species and move ids are shared name spaces.** Both generations key
+  `data.pokemon` and `data.moves` by the same `TOTODILE` / `TACKLE` strings, so
+  the wire never needs the cart's index remap (`ConvertMon_2to1`). Ids, not
+  bytes, is what makes the port's protocol simpler than the cable's.
+- **The derived fields do not travel.** `shiny`, `gender` and `unownLetter` are
+  all functions of the DVs (`Mon.isShiny`, `Mon.gender`, `Unown.letterFromDVs`),
+  so the receiver recomputes them and a tampered packet cannot claim a shiny it
+  did not roll. Same reasoning as `unpackMon` recomputing stats.
+
+`LinkBattle.lua` breaks in a larger way. It calls
+`BattleState.makeBattler`, `src/battle/TurnOrder.lua` and Gen 1's damage
+pipeline directly. Gold's battle is `src/battle/gen2/Battle.lua`, a different
+object with a different event shape. The one piece of good news is that
+`Battle.new` already takes `opts.random` (`src/battle/gen2/Battle.lua:220`) --
+the injection seam a lockstep battle needs is there and does not have to be cut.
+
+## 4. The wire format for Gen 2
+
+Message types stay the ones `Protocol.lua` already documents (`hello`,
+`records`, `party`, `pick`, `confirm`, `action`, `event`, `bye`). Gen 2 adds
+fields, never renames -- the same rule the mod seams follow.
+
+**`hello`** gains one field, `generation` (1 or 2). A peer that omits it is
+generation 1 by construction: no released build has ever had Gen 2 link, so
+absent means Red/Blue/Yellow. This is implemented.
+
+**`party`** carries a list of packed mons whose shape is the Gen 2 one:
+
+```
+{ species, level, experience, hp, status, nickname,
+  dvs = { attack, defense, speed, special },   -- hp derived
+  statExp = { hp, attack, defense, speed, special },
+  moves = { { id, pp } ... },
+  item, happiness, pokerus, caughtLevel,
+  ot, otId, isEgg, eggSteps, extra }
+```
+
+and, in a trade, a parallel `mail` array indexed by the same wire position --
+separate exactly as `Link_PrepPartyData_Gen2` keeps it separate, because mail is
+SRAM the cart copies out of `sPartyMail`, not part of the party struct. The
+codec for the mon half is implemented; the mail half is not.
+
+**`records`** gains a third map, `heldItems`, beside `pokemon` and `moves`, so a
+subset trade can refuse a mon whose held item the other game would rebuild
+differently. Implemented.
+
+**`action` / `event`** for a lockstep Gen 2 battle are not designed here, because
+the design is downstream of a decision nobody has made yet: whether
+`src/battle/gen2/Battle.lua` grows a "replay these two actions" entry point or
+whether the link battle drives it through the same UI path a local battle uses.
+Guessing at a message shape before that is exactly the half-built protocol this
+document is meant to avoid.
+
+## 5. The fingerprint on Gold
+
+The fingerprint is the one part of the design that is fully answerable today,
+because it depends only on what a Gold mod can reach, and `src/mods/Schemas.lua`
+answers that exhaustively.
+
+The Gen 1 surface is species, moves, the type chart, statuses, move effects,
+constants and mod-declared link fields. The Gen 2 surface is the same idea over
+different tables, plus one registry Gen 1 does not have:
+
+| What | Gen 1 | Gen 2 | Why it is surface |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| species | `data.pokemon` | `data.pokemon` (Gen 2 shape) | base stats decide every damage roll; `evolutions` decides what a traded mon becomes |
+| exp curves | code (`src/pokemon/Growth.lua`) | `data.pokemon.growthRates` | the level a traded mon's experience buys |
+| moves | `data.moves` | `data.moves`, **plus `effectChance`** | Gen 2 stores the secondary-effect odds per move rather than per effect |
+| type chart | `data.type_chart` | same, **plus `foresightMatchups`** | Foresight rewrites Ghost's immunities mid-battle |
+| statuses | `data.statuses` | `data.gen2Statuses` | `statPenalty`, `cureOnSwitch`, `beforeMovePriority` |
+| move effects | `data.move_effects` | `data.gen2MoveEffects` | which effect is primary, secondary, or accuracy-checked |
+| held items | -- | `data.gen2HeldItems` | Leftovers, King's Rock, the type boosters: pure battle math, and the item travels with a traded mon |
+| link fields | `data.link_fields` | none (gated) | a mod-declared extra mon field; see below |
+
+Deliberately **not** hashed on either generation, and the reasoning is the same
+in both:
+
+- Names, dex entries, learnsets, TM/HM lists, sprite paths and `source`. None of
+  them changes a battle turn or a trade rebuild, and sprite paths differ between
+  two identical installs.
+- `catchRate` (#511). A ball thrown in a link battle is refused; hashing it split
+  Red/Blue from Yellow over two bytes.
+- Balls and item effects. Link battles allow no bag items on either cart.
+- `data.gen2Constants`. It is the ROM's ordered name lists -- `mapOrder`,
+  `spriteOrder`, `speciesOrder`, `heldEffectOrder` -- and it is an *index* space.
+  Every dispatch in the Gen 2 simulation goes by name (`Battle.heldEffect`
+  compares `record.heldEffect` strings, `moveEffectRecordFor` keys by
+  `EFFECT_*`), so reordering a constants list moves no battle math. Hashing it
+  would split two peers over a list neither of them dispatches on.
+- Breeding data (`eggGroups`, `eggMoves`, `eggSteps`). The Day-Care is local.
+  There is no link breeding and an egg's contents are decided before it is
+  traded.
+- Everything in the Gen 2-only registries that is not `held_items`:
+  `phone_contacts`, `decorations`, `apricorns`, `landmarks`, `radio_channels`.
+  None of them can be observed from inside a link session.
+
+`genderRatio` **is** hashed, unlike anything in the breeding block, because Gen 2
+has Attract and a gender disagreement is a battle-math disagreement.
+
+`link_fields` stays gated on Gen 2 (`Schemas.GEN2`). It is a mod's declaration
+that an extra mon field must survive the wire, and it can only be un-gated once
+there is a Gen 2 mon wire format with a session behind it. A registry that hashes
+into the fingerprint but that no packer reads would be a lie the fingerprint
+tells.
+
+The hook keeps its Gen 1 name and its Gen 1 arity. `link.fingerprint` is called
+as `(data, mods)` on both generations, and the generation is captured in the
+vanilla closure rather than passed as a third argument -- a Gen 1 mod that wraps
+the hook and forwards `nxt(data, mods)` therefore works verbatim on Gold, which
+a third argument would have quietly broken.
+
+## 6. Cross-generation pairing
+
+`Handshake.checkCompat` refuses a pairing whose two `generation` fields differ,
+with reason `generation_mismatch`, before any other check. This is deliberately
+a refusal and not a Time Capsule: section 2 costs roughly 400 lines of lossy
+conversion plus two validators, and shipping a menu that pairs a Gold game with a
+Red one and then rebuilds a Cyndaquil as whatever species index 155 happens to
+be in Red would be worse than refusing.
+
+If somebody does want the Time Capsule later, the cart's own rules are the spec,
+and the port has an advantage the cart did not: ids rather than indices, so
+`ConvertMon_2to1`'s remap table is unnecessary. What remains is real work:
+refuse species above the Kanto 151, refuse moves Gen 1 lacks, refuse held items
+and mail, fold `specialAttack`/`specialDefense` back into one Special
+(`KantoMonSpecials`, `data/pokemon/gen1_base_special.asm`), and re-validate types
+on arrival with Magnemite and Magneton carved out.
+
+## 7. What is built, and what is left
+
+**Built (this change).**
+
+- `Fingerprint.generationOf(data)`: reads `data.type_chart.generation`, then the
+  presence of the Gen 2-only Data namespaces, so the digest never has to be told
+  which game it is running in.
+- A Gen 2 link surface in `Fingerprint.lua`, tagged `[gen2]` so a Gen 2 digest
+  can never collide with a Gen 1 one, covering the table in section 5.
+- `Fingerprint.records(data, kind, generation)` for `pokemon`, `moves` and
+  `held_items` on Gold, which is what a subset trade negotiates on.
+- `Handshake.hello` carries `generation`; `checkCompat` refuses a cross-generation
+  pairing; `describe` explains it in the screen's own voice.
+- `held_items` counts as link surface for `Handshake.linkModified`, so a Gold mod
+  that gives Leftovers a different heal is correctly locked out of online play.
+  `growth_rates` counts too, and for a reason worth stating: a curve is an
+  `expForLevel` function, so the fingerprint serializes it as `?` and cannot
+  hash it at all. `Mon.growthFor` prefers the merged registry over the
+  extractor's coefficient rows, so a mod declaring `affects_link = false` could
+  otherwise rewrite every curve -- changing what level a traded mon's experience
+  buys -- and be caught by neither the digest nor the online gate.
+- `Protocol.packMon2` / `unpackMon2`: the Gen 2 party-struct codec, with the
+  receiver recomputing stats, experience, shininess and gender from real species
+  data the way `unpackMon` does. Nothing sends it yet.
+- `Protocol.recordsMessage` and `eligibleParty` understand held items, and
+  `TradeSession:_negotiate` builds our own side of the comparison by calling
+  `recordsMessage` rather than open-coding a subset of it. That is not a
+  refactor: the open-coded version left `heldItems` off our side only, and both
+  held-item arms of `eligibleParty` are guarded on our own map, so the whole
+  check was unreachable from the only caller that matters.
+
+**Not built.** Sized as honestly as I can:
+
+| Piece | Size | Why it is not here |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Mail on the wire | small (1-2 days) | needs `Mail.state(save).party` packed as a parallel array and the receiver writing it into its own slot; no consumer until the trade session exists |
+| Gen 2 trade session | medium (about a week) | `TradeSession` is generic in shape but `apply` calls `src/world/PikachuFollower`, Gen 1 pokedex fields and Gen 1 trade evolutions; Gold needs `src/core/gen2/TradeAnim.lua`, `src/core/gen2/Evolution.lua` (`EVOLVE_TRADE`) and the Gen 2 pokedex |
+| Gold LINK menu and trade UI | medium (about a week) | Gold's menus are `src/ui/gen2/`, its text box is Gen 2 chrome, and the Cable Club script needs the receptionist path; `LinkState.lua` draws with Gen 1 `TextBox` throughout |
+| Gen 2 lockstep battle | large (several weeks) | needs a deterministic-replay entry point into `src/battle/gen2/Battle.lua`, a Gen 2 action/event encoding, and a state hash over a much larger volatile-status set than Gen 1's; the `opts.random` seam exists, nothing else does |
+| Time Capsule | large | section 6 |
+| `link_fields` on Gen 2 | small, but blocked | needs the trade session first |
+
+The order matters: mail, session and UI are the trade half and can ship without
+the battle half, exactly as the cart's Trade Center and Colosseum are separate
+rooms. A Gold LINK menu that offers only TRADE is a complete feature. A Gold
+LINK menu that offers BATTLE before the lockstep battle exists is the failure
+this document was written to prevent.

+# Pokemon Gold: Gen 2 import, colour, menus, saving and battles
+
+Support for a canonical **Pokemon Gold** ROM
+(SHA-1 `d8b8a3600a465308c9953dfa04f0081c05bdcb94`, 2 MiB). Gen 2 extraction
+and overworld are separate from Red/Blue/Yellow -- never branched into
+`RomExtractor.lua` / Gen 1 `Map.lua`.
+
+## Pipeline

+
+## What extracts
+

+Verified against a real Gold ROM: New Bark Town warps/objects/connections
+match `pokegold/maps/NewBarkTown.asm`. Retail EVENT_* numeric ids differ
+from pret’s current `const_def` order -- always take flags from the cart.
+
+## Play
+
+Launcher → Gold tab → Play opens `Game2` (`src/core/Game2.lua`):
+
+- Copyright → GameFreak Presents → GS intro stub → title (colored tilemap,
+  scrolling clouds, Ho-Oh flap, trails) → Oak speech (Marill cry + shrink)
+  → name pick → `src/world/gen2/World`
+- Drivers (`POKEPORT_DRIVER`) skip cinema straight to the map
+- New Bark Town with Johto tileset + roof overlay (outdoors only)
+- Walk on `COLL_*` permissions; doors / stairs / carpets
+- Elm's lab: scene walk-in, starter balls (`givepoke` + cutscene moves),
+  Elm phone number, aide Potion on exit (`verbosegiveitem`)
+- Connected neighbor strips + seamless edge crossings (Route 29 / 27)
+- Survey zoom (`-` / `=` / wheel / `4`)
+- Chris + map/neighbor NPCs; `SPRITEMOVEDATA_*` walk / spin / stand
+- New-game flags hide story NPCs (e.g. lab cop)
+- A: talk to facing NPC or read `BGEVENT_READ` signs via Gen 2 VM + TextBox
+
+Escape is START, not quit: quitting is the START menu's QUIT row and the
+intro menu's EXIT GAME.  Title / map music and script SFX/cries use the Gen 2
+channel driver.
+
+## Colour
+
+Gen 2 is CGB-native, so colour is part of a tile's identity rather than a tint
+over a 4-shade image.  `engine/gfx/color.asm` LoadMapPals is ported whole in
+`src/world/gen2/Palettes.lua`:
+
+1. the clock hour picks a daytime (`engine/rtc/rtc.asm` TimesOfDay), which a
+   map's own `PALETTE_*` can override (`ReplaceTimeOfDayPals`)
+2. `EnvironmentColorsPointers[environment][daytime]` names eight entries in the
+   shared `TilesetBGPalette` pool
+3. outdoors only, `RoofPals[mapGroup]` overwrites `PAL_BG_ROOF` colours 1-2 --
+   one roof tile sheet, a different colour per town
+4. each tile's slot comes from its tileset's `PalMap`, and each OW sprite's OBJ
+   palette from `MapObjectPals[daytime]` plus its own `PAL_OW_*`
+
+The map bake runs one shader pass per BG slot (eight per map) rather than one
+per tile, and re-bakes when the clock rolls into a new daytime.
+`POKEPORT_GOLD_HOUR=21` pins the hour for screenshots.
+
+## Still to do
+
+About fifty of AI_Smart's seventy per-effect handlers are unwritten, fishing
+and headbutt have engine support but no input path, and Mart, the summary
+screen, `.sav` interchange, Silver and mod-replaceable Gen 2 screens are all
+still open.

+
+`POKEPORT_IMPORT_TRACE=1` prints each of the 26 stages as it starts, and a
+headless import that fails now says so and exits non-zero rather than sitting
+in an error state that looks exactly like a hang.
+
+A Gold cache without `palettes.lua`, `moves.lua`, `encounters.lua`,
+`trainers.lua`, `pokedex.lua`, `landmarks.lua`, `icons.lua`, `menu_gfx.lua`,
+`intro.lua`, `std_scripts.lua` or `battle/hud/*.png` needs a re-import -- as
+does one whose back pics are still the front pic's size rather than 48x48 (see
+below), and one whose trainer classes have no `encounterMusic` (the sixth
+pass added `TrainerEncounterMusic` to the manifest, so the manifest has to be
+regenerated as well).  So does one whose `text.lua` has no `labels` table: that
+is the by-name seed for the text no script pointer reaches (the Day-Care and
+breeding block, the mart conversation, the Hall of Fame headers), and it needs
+a regenerated manifest too, because the seed reads those symbols by name.
+
+## Traps this port has already fallen into
+
+Worth knowing before touching the extractor:
+
+- **Back pics are always 6x6 (48x48).**  `BASE_PIC_SIZE`'s low nibble describes
+  the *front* pic only, so decoding a back at it reads the wrong tile count in
+  the wrong number of columns and produces garbage.
+- **`#`, `<POKE>` and `<PKMN>` have no font tile.**  They are compression bytes
+  ($54/$24/$4a) that PlaceString expands; the manifest charmap has to expand
+  them or "#DEX" renders as "DEX".
+- **FishGroups has no row for FISHGROUP_NONE**, so a group's row is its id minus
+  one.  Walking the constant list from the top reads every row shifted.
+- **Trainer groups have no end marker** -- the next group's label follows
+  immediately -- so a party scan needs the class's own member list to bound it.
+- **Pokedex entries are spread over four banks** and the cart derives the bank
+  arithmetically; take each species' own symbol instead.
+- **`EvosAttacksPointers` is `dw`, not `dba`**: the blobs share the table's bank.
+- Item ids past NUM_ITEMS (the TMs and HMs) have no ItemNames row; their name is
+  their TM number.
+- **`TrainerClassAttributes` rows are SEVEN bytes**, not eight:
+  `NUM_TRAINER_ATTRIBUTES` is `_RS` after three `rb` and two `rw`.  An
+  eight-byte stride walks one byte further off with every class, so the AI
+  flags come out as noise for everything past the first trainer -- and it
+  produces plausible values rather than an error, which is how it survived two
+  passes.  The row is {item1, item2, baseMoney, aiLo, aiHi, switchLo,
+  switchHi}: the base money is byte THREE.
+- **`dba_pic` does not store the real bank.**  For the three "Pics" sections
+  that sit above the 8-bit-friendly range it writes `$13`, `$14` or `$1f`, and
+  `FixPicBank` (engine/gfx/load_pics.asm) maps those back to `$1f`, `$20` and
+  `$2e`.  Any table of pic pointers -- `PokemonPicPointers`,
+  `UnownPicPointers`, `TrainerPicPointers` -- needs that mapping, or the read
+  lands in a completely different bank.
+- **A pic can run over the top of its bank.**  `GetLZByte` bumps the bank and
+  drops back to `$4000` when the read pointer passes `$8000`, so a compressed
+  pic near the top of a bank keeps going into the next one; slicing only to
+  `$8000` stops short of nine of the Unown letters.
+- **`BattleAnimObjects` rows are SIX bytes**, because `BATTLEANIMOBJ_LENGTH` is
+  `_RS - 1` -- the struct's runtime INDEX byte is not in the table.
+- **Unown has no `PokemonPicPointers` row of its own**; its twenty-six forms
+  come out of `UnownPicPointers` instead, and letter A stands in for the
+  species.

+# ASM Walk output format
+
+Every `section-NN-*.md` in this folder follows the structure below. The goal is a
+single place a bot author can look at to answer "for this stretch of the
+walkthrough, which maps, warps, objects, scripts, flags, items and trainers are
+involved, and where in the pokegold disassembly do they live?"
+
+Conventions:
+
+- Disassembly paths are written relative to the pokegold checkout root, e.g.
+  `maps/NewBarkTown.asm`, `data/maps/maps.asm`, `constants/event_flags.asm`.
+- Port paths are written relative to this repo root, e.g. `src/world/gen2/Map.lua`.
+- Coordinates are the raw asm values (map-block coordinates as written in the
+  `warp_event` / `object_event` / `bg_event` rows), not screen pixels.
+- Anything not verified by opening the file is omitted rather than guessed. If a
+  walkthrough claim could not be located in the asm, it goes under
+  "Unresolved / verify by hand".

+Ordered list of map transitions the walkthrough takes, one row per hop.
+
+| # | Map constant | asm file | Enter via | Leaves via | Why (walkthrough beat) |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+
+## 2. Maps
+
+Repeat this block per map.
+
+### MAP_<NAME>
+
+- Script: `maps/<Name>.asm`
+- Blocks: `maps/<Name>.blk` (if present)
+- Header: `data/maps/maps.asm` -> tileset, environment, location, music, phone, palette
+- Dimensions / attributes: `constants/map_constants.asm` (`map_const <NAME>, W, H`)
+- Connections: north/south/east/west map constants
+
+**Warps** (`def_warp_events`)
+
+| idx | x | y | destination map | dest warp |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+
+**Coord events** (`def_coord_events`) - the scripted trip-wires a bot will hit
+
+| scene | x | y | script label | effect |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+
+**BG events** (`def_bg_events`) - signs, hidden items
+
+| x | y | type | script/item |

+**Object events** (`def_object_events`) - NPCs, item balls, trainers
+
+| const | sprite | x | y | movement | type | script label | event flag |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+
+**Scripts of interest**
+
+For each script label the walkthrough actually depends on: label, a short prose
+summary of what the opcodes do, and the flags/items/battles it touches. Cite the
+label name so it can be grepped.
+
+**Flags and events**
+
+| constant | defined in | read/written by | meaning for a bot |
+|---|---|---|---|
+
+Include `EVENT_*` (`constants/event_flags.asm`), `ENGINE_*`
+(`constants/engine_flags.asm`), and any `SCENE_*` values
+(`constants/map_setup_constants.asm` / the map's own `object_const_def` block).
+
+**Items**
+
+| item | how obtained | source (label / bg_event / hidden) | one-time flag |
+|---|---|---|---|
+
+**Trainers**
+
+| const | class | id | party (`data/trainers/parties.asm` label) | script label | rematch/phone |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+
+**Wild encounters**
+
+Table entry in `data/wild/johto_grass.asm` / `johto_water.asm` /
+`kanto_grass.asm` / `kanto_water.asm`, plus fishing (`data/wild/fish.asm`),
+headbutt (`data/wild/treemons.asm`) and rock smash where relevant. Note the
+morn/day/nite split.
+
+## 3. Blockers and gates
+
+What actually stops forward progress in this section, and the precise check.
+
+| Gate | Enforced by (file:label) | Requirement | Unlock condition |
+|---|---|---|---|
+
+Cover badge checks, HM field-move checks (`engine/overworld/`), key items,
+`EVENT_*` guards, and NPC-blocked tiles.
+
+## 4. Bot checklist
+
+The machine-actionable version: an ordered list of steps a scripted playthrough
+would execute. Each step names the map, the target coordinates or object const,
+the input intent (talk / walk / use item / battle), the precondition flag and the
+postcondition flag. Keep it literal enough that someone can turn a row into a
+driver command without reopening the asm.
+
+## 5. Port coverage
+
+Where this section's mechanics land in this repo, and what is missing.
+
+| Beat | Port file | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+
+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+Anything the walkthrough asserts that could not be pinned to a specific asm
+location, plus any contradictions found between the two.

+- Dimensions (`constants/map_constants.asm:442`): `map_const PLAYERS_HOUSE_1F, 5, 4` (10x8 cells)
+- Connections: none (indoor)
+- Scene var: `wPlayersHouse1FSceneID` (`data/maps/scenes.asm:30`). Scene ids come
+  from declaration order in `def_scene_scripts` (`macros/scripts/maps.asm:25`):
+  `SCENE_PLAYERSHOUSE1F_MEET_MOM` = 0, `SCENE_PLAYERSHOUSE1F_NOOP` = 1. A new game
+  zeroes the scene, so scene 0 is live on the first visit.
+
+**Warps** (`def_warp_events`)
+
+| idx | x | y | destination map | dest warp |
+|---|---|---|---|---|

+| 3 | 9 | 0 | `PLAYERS_HOUSE_2F` | 1 |
+
+**Coord events** (`def_coord_events`)
+
+None. The Mom cutscene is a **scene script**, not a coord event: `scene_script
+PlayersHouse1FMeetMomScene, SCENE_PLAYERSHOUSE1F_MEET_MOM` -> `sdefer MeetMomScript`,
+so it fires on map entry from the stairs while the scene id is still 0.
+

+
+Note the object flags are inverted relative to intuition: a *set* event flag hides
+the object. Mom1 is the cutscene Mom (visible while `EVENT_PLAYERS_HOUSE_MOM_1`
+is clear); `MeetMomScript` ends by setting `EVENT_PLAYERS_HOUSE_MOM_1` and
+clearing `EVENT_PLAYERS_HOUSE_MOM_2`, which swaps in the three time-of-day Moms
+on the next map load.

+  8. Phone-instructions branch (`.KnowPhone` / `.ExplainPhone`, both fall into `.FinishPhone`), then `applymovement PLAYERSHOUSE1F_MOM1, MomWalksBackMovement` and `special RestartMapMusic`.
+  Crucially the #GEAR is **not** an inventory item: it is two engine flags. There
+  is no `giveitem` in this script.
+- `MomScript` (talking to Mom afterwards): checks, in order,

+  -> `EVENT_GAVE_MYSTERY_EGG_TO_ELM` -> `EVENT_GOT_A_POKEMON_FROM_ELM`; in this

+- `LabTryToLeaveScript`: the "you cannot walk out yet" push-back described above.
+- `ElmsLabHealingMachine` (bg_event at (2,1)): before
+  `EVENT_GOT_A_POKEMON_FROM_ELM` it just prints text; after, it offers a

+- `ProfElmScript`: long check chain. In this section every branch falls through

+## 3. Blockers and gates
+
+| Gate | Enforced by (file:label) | Requirement | Unlock condition |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Clock must be set before the world exists | `engine/menus/intro_menu.asm:494` `OakSpeech` -> `farcall InitClock` (`engine/rtc/timeset.asm:4`); default hour is 10 (`ld a, 10 ; default hour = 10 AM`) | hour then minute then a `YesNoBox` confirm each | answering "yes" to both confirmations |
+| Player must be named | `engine/menus/intro_menu.asm` `NamePlayer` -> `ShowPlayerNamingChoices` / `StorePlayerName` | pick a preset or type a name | any accepted name |
+| Cannot walk out of Elm's Lab before the errand speech ends | `maps/ElmsLab.asm` coord events (4,6) and (5,6) under `SCENE_ELMSLAB_CANT_LEAVE`, script `LabTryToLeaveScript` | scene id must leave 1 | `ElmDirectionsScript`'s `setscene SCENE_ELMSLAB_AIDE_GIVES_POTION` - i.e. take a starter |
+| Cannot leave New Bark Town west toward Route 29 | `maps/NewBarkTown.asm` coord events (1,8) and (1,9) under `SCENE_NEWBARKTOWN_TEACHER_STOPS_YOU`, scripts `NewBarkTown_TeacherStopsYouScene1/2` | scene id must leave 0 | `ElmDirectionsScript`'s `setmapscene NEW_BARK_TOWN, SCENE_NEWBARKTOWN_NOOP` |
+| Aide's Potion is scene-gated, not flag-gated | `maps/ElmsLab.asm` coord events (4,8)/(5,8), `AideScript_GivePotion` | be on scene 5 and step on x=4 or 5, y=8 | script itself does `setscene SCENE_ELMSLAB_NOOP` |
+| Everstone (listed by the FAQ under New Bark Town) | `maps/ElmsLab.asm:63,338-347` `ElmCheckEverstone` / `ElmGiveEverstoneScript` | `EVENT_SHOWED_TOGEPI_TO_ELM`, which needs a hatched Togepi in the party (`special FindPartyMonThatSpeciesYourTrainerID`) | many sections later |
+
+No HM field-move gate applies in this section: nothing under
+`engine/overworld/` (cut/surf/strength/whirlpool/waterfall/flash/fly) is
+consulted between the bedroom and the starter.

+## 4. Bot checklist
+
+| # | Map | Target | Intent | Precondition | Postcondition |

+| 6a | `PLAYERS_HOUSE_1F` | DST `yesorno` pair | answer, then confirm | inside `MeetMomScript` | answering "no" to the confirm loops back to `.SetDayOfWeek` - a bot must confirm, not just answer |
+| 7 | `PLAYERS_HOUSE_1F` | warp 1 (6,7) or warp 2 (7,7) | walk onto | - | `NEW_BARK_TOWN` at warp 2 (13,5) |
+| 8 | `NEW_BARK_TOWN` | object `NEWBARKTOWN_RIVAL` at (3,2) | talk (optional) | rival visible while `EVENT_RIVAL_NEW_BARK_TOWN` clear | pushed one cell DOWN + a `jump_step DOWN`; **no flag set**, skippable |
+| 9 | `NEW_BARK_TOWN` | warp 1 at (6,3) | walk onto | avoid (1,8)/(1,9) until step 12 | `ELMS_LAB` at warp 1 (4,11) |

+| 12 | `ELMS_LAB` | (4,8) or (5,8) | walk onto on the way out | scene == 5 | `POTION` in bag; scene -> 2 (`NOOP`) |
+| 13 | `ELMS_LAB` | bg_event (2,1) | face UP + A -> yes (optional) | `EVENT_GOT_A_POKEMON_FROM_ELM` set | party healed (`special HealParty`) |
+| 14 | `ELMS_LAB` | warp 1 (4,11) or warp 2 (5,11) | walk onto | - | `NEW_BARK_TOWN` (6,3) |
+| 15 | `NEW_BARK_TOWN` | west edge past (1,8)/(1,9) | walk west | `NEW_BARK_TOWN` scene == 1 | crosses the `connection west, Route29` into `ROUTE_29` - section 01 |

+## 5. Port coverage

+| `InitClock` (the "what time is it?" / minute screens) | none - `src/ui/gen2/OakSpeech.lua:3` says outright "Gender select / InitClock are Crystal-later" | **missing** (bot step 2 has no screen to drive) |
+| `SPAWN_HOME` start at `PLAYERS_HOUSE_2F` (3,3) | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:228-232` (`START_MAP = "PLAYERS_HOUSE_2F"`, cites `data/maps/spawn_points.asm`) | implemented |
+| Map load, warps, collision, connections | `src/world/gen2/Map.lua`, `src/world/gen2/World.lua`; `tests/drivers/gold_walk_smoke.lua`, `tests/drivers/gold_warp_scene.lua` (asserts the New Bark door lands on `ELMS_LAB`) | implemented |
+| Scene scripts + coord events (the mechanism every gate in this section uses) | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:5011-5035` (`coordEvents` scan filtered by `self:scene()`, `sceneScripts` lookup), extracted by `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua:804-977` | implemented |
+| `MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP` / `MAPCALLBACK_TILES`, `ToggleDecorationsVisibility`, `ToggleMaptileDecorations` | `src/script/gen2/Specials.lua:489-505`, `tests/drivers/gold_map_callbacks.lua`, `tests/gen2_map_callbacks_test.lua` | implemented |
+| `MeetMomScript` (emote, follow-free walk-in, `yesorno` under a prompt, mid-scene object swap) | driven by the VM; regression driver `tests/drivers/gold_mom_scene.lua` exists specifically for this scene; the Mom object-swap timing is commented at `src/world/gen2/World.lua:558-568,730` | implemented |
+| `special SetDayOfWeek` / `InitialSetDSTFlag` / `InitialClearDSTFlag` | `src/script/gen2/Specials.lua:836-860` | partial - the flags/RTC fields are written from the host clock, but no day-of-week picker UI is drawn, so the player never chooses |
+| Teacher west-exit gate | `tests/drivers/gold_teacher_scene.lua` (asserts `follow` drags the player back and she stands beside them) | implemented |
+| Rival push-out (`follow` + `jump_step` + `SFX_TACKLE`) | VM ops `follow`/`stopfollow` (`src/script/gen2/Opcodes.lua:117-118`), movement in `src/script/gen2/Movement.lua` | partial - opcodes present, no driver covering `NewBarkTownRivalScript` specifically |
+| Starter pick: `pokepic`, `cry`, `yesorno`, `disappear`, `givepoke SP, 5, BERRY` | `src/script/gen2/Opcodes.lua:91-92,51`; `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua:386-394` (`pokepic` -> `showPicFn`), `:439-445` (`givepoke` -> `givePokeFn` with species/level/held item) | partial - all opcodes implemented, but no driver or test in `tests/drivers/gold_*.lua` walks the Elm's Lab starter choice end to end |
+| `verbosegiveitem POTION` (aide) | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua:490-510` (received text, SFX, "put in the ITEM POCKET") | implemented |
+| `addcellnum PHONE_MOM` / `PHONE_ELM`, Pokegear phone card | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua:611`, `src/core/gen2/Phone.lua:137,146`, `src/ui/gen2/Pokegear.lua` | implemented |
+| `special HealParty` / `HealMachineAnim` (lab healing machine) | `src/script/gen2/Specials.lua:456` | implemented |
+| `special PlayersHousePC` + `warp NONE, 0, 0` | `src/script/gen2/Specials.lua:467-487`, `src/ui/gen2/PcMenu.lua` | implemented |
+| `special NameRival` (fires next section, from `CopScript`) | `src/script/gen2/Specials.lua:825-828` -> `World:nameRival` (`src/world/gen2/World.lua:4931`) | implemented |
+| Event-flag bitfield semantics (set flag = object hidden) | `src/world/gen2/Events.lua` (header comment cites `CheckObjectFlag` in `map_objects_2.asm`) | implemented |
+
+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+- **Everstone.** The FAQ lists "Everstone" under "Items found in New Bark Town".
+  There is no Everstone item ball, hidden item or bg_event on `MAP_NEW_BARK_TOWN`,
+  `MAP_ELMS_LAB`, `MAP_PLAYERS_HOUSE_1F` or `MAP_PLAYERS_HOUSE_2F`. The only New
+  Bark Town Everstone is `ElmGiveEverstoneScript` (`maps/ElmsLab.asm:338-347`),
+  which requires `EVENT_SHOWED_TOGEPI_TO_ELM` - a hatched Togepi shown to Elm,
+  many sections later. Treat the FAQ line as forward-looking, not as an item to
+  collect here.
+- **"Pokegear" as an item.** The FAQ says "You get the Pokegear". In the asm it is
+  `setflag ENGINE_POKEGEAR` + `setflag ENGINE_PHONE_CARD`, with the item name
+  faked through `getstring STRING_BUFFER_4, PokegearName` ("#GEAR") into the
+  standard `ReceiveItemScript` text. Nothing enters the bag - a bot must not
+  check inventory for it.
+- **"Professor Oak will ask you the time. First answer what hour it is and what
+  minute it is."** `InitClock` (`engine/rtc/timeset.asm`) is reached from
+  `OakSpeech` *before* any Oak text is printed (`farcall InitClock` is the first
+  instruction of `OakSpeech`), so the clock screen actually comes first and Oak's
+  greeting second. The FAQ's ordering is the reverse.
+- **"even if you don't have the GBA on, the time will keep running"** - an RTC
+  hardware claim, nothing in the disassembly to cite; ignore.
+- **East exit toward Route 27.** `data/maps/attributes.asm:121` gives New Bark Town
+  a `connection east, Route27, ROUTE_27, 0`, and unlike the west side there is
+  *no* coord event guarding it. Whether a bot can actually walk east before
+  getting Surf depends on the shoreline tiles in `maps/NewBarkTown.blk`, which I
+  did not decode. Verify by hand before relying on the west gate as the only exit
+  block.
+- **Teacher gate coverage.** Only (1,8) and (1,9) carry coord events. If the map's
+  west connection strip is reachable at any other y, the gate has a hole. I read
+  the coord table but not the collision data, so this is unverified.
+- **Rival battle.** The FAQ says only that he pushes you; confirmed - there is no
+  `loadtrainer`/`startbattle` in `NewBarkTownRivalScript`. The first rival battle
+  is not in this section.

+`MAP_VIOLET_POKECENTER_1F` with the Togepi egg, and sets
+`SCENE_ROUTE32_OFFER_SLOWPOKETAIL` when the egg is taken. That whole beat

+## 3. Blockers and gates
+
+| Gate | Enforced by (file:label) | Requirement | Unlock condition |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Sprout Tower 3F rival cutscene fires before you can reach Sage Li | `maps/SproutTower3F.asm` `coord_event 11, 9, SCENE_SPROUTTOWER3F_RIVAL_ENCOUNTER, SproutTower3FRivalScene` | Standing on (11,9) while `wSproutTower3FSceneID` == 0 | The scene's own `setscene SCENE_SPROUTTOWER3F_NOOP`. Not a hard block - the tile is on the only path north |
+| HM05 Flash | `maps/SproutTower3F.asm:SageLiScript` | Beat `SAGE, LI` (`loadtrainer` + `startbattle`) | `verbosegiveitem HM_FLASH` + `setevent EVENT_GOT_HM05_FLASH` |
+| Using Flash outside battle | `engine/events/overworld.asm` `FlashFunction.CheckUseFlash` (`03:48f1`): `ld de, ENGINE_ZEPHYRBADGE` / `farcall CheckBadge` / `jr c, .nozephyrbadge` | `ENGINE_ZEPHYRBADGE` set **and** `wTimeOfDayPalset == DARKNESS_PALSET` | Beat Falkner. Note the second half: even with the badge, Flash is refused on any map that is not a dark cave (`.notadarkcave` -> `FieldMoveFailed`) |
+| ZEPHYRBADGE attack boost / obedience | `engine/battle/core.asm:6566` (the `and` mask that starts `(1 << ZEPHYRBADGE)`) | badge bit | Beat Falkner |
+| Gym trainers Abe and Rod | `maps/VioletGym.asm` object events, `OBJECTTYPE_TRAINER` sight 3 on shared rows | eyesight only; they do **not** physically block the aisle | Beating them, or `EVENT_BEAT_BIRD_KEEPER_*` being force-set by `VioletGymFalknerScript.FightDone` |
+| Falkner re-battle | `maps/VioletGym.asm:VioletGymFalknerScript` `checkevent EVENT_BEAT_FALKNER` / `iftrue .FightDone` | none | one-shot |
+| Sage Li re-battle | `maps/SproutTower3F.asm:SageLiScript` `checkevent EVENT_GOT_HM05_FLASH` / `iftrue .GotFlash` | none | one-shot, keyed on the HM flag rather than on `EVENT_BEAT_SAGE_LI` |
+| Sprout Tower is a `DUNGEON` | `data/maps/maps.asm:79-81` | - | `ESCAPE_ROPE` and Dig work here, which is what the walkthrough's "you may use that to get out of the tower" relies on |
+
+Nothing in this section is gated on a field move, a key item, or an NPC standing
+on a tile. The only hard requirement is winning battles.

+| Script VM for every `maps/*.asm` script in this section | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua`, `src/script/gen2/Opcodes.lua` | implemented - scripts are disassembled from the ROM, not hand-ported, so `SageLiScript` / `VioletGymFalknerScript` run as-is |
+| `coord_event` + scene ids (the 3F rival trip-wire) | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:5013` (coord event scan), `:1183` / `:5026` (scene scripts) | implemented |

+| **Poke Ball item pickup (`OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL`)** - Parlyz Heal, X Defend, Potion, Escape Rope, PP Up, Rare Candy | `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua:2969` writes `obj.itemball`; **nothing in `src/` reads it**, and `World:interact()` (`src/world/gen2/World.lua:5257`) has no itemball branch (trainer / strength boulder / `scriptKey` / bg sign / hidden item only). `src/script/gen2/CallAsm.lua:550` stubs `TryReceiveItem` out on purpose | **missing** - the balls render and are masked correctly, but pressing A on one does nothing. Every item ball in this section is unobtainable in the port today |
+| Hand-ported per-map Lua for Sprout Tower / Violet Gym | none - by design | n/a (the port runs the ROM's own bytecode) |
+
+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+1. **"X Accuracy" in the Sprout Tower item list.** The walkthrough's header
+   lists Escape Rope, HM05, Parlyz Heal, Potion, **X Accuracy**, and the prose
+   says "grab that X Defense above you". The asm has exactly one such ball,
+   `SproutTower2FXDefend` = `itemball X_DEFEND` at 2F (3,1). There is no
+   `X_ACCURACY` anywhere in `maps/SproutTower*.asm`. The header list is wrong;
+   the prose is right.
+
+2. **"Go up to the item to the right of the monk. In reality, it is a...
+   Level 3 Rattata"** and the follow-up "Go back to the Rattata you faced
+   before, and now it's an Escape Rope." Nothing in `maps/SproutTower3F.asm`
+   supports this. The object at (14,1) is a plain
+   `object_event ... OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL, 0, SproutTower3FEscapeRope,
+   EVENT_SPROUT_TOWER_3F_ESCAPE_ROPE` whose script label is a bare
+   `itemball ESCAPE_ROPE`. There is no `wildbattle`, no `loadwildmon`, no
+   second object at that cell, and no branch on `EVENT_GOT_HM05_FLASH` anywhere
+   near it. This looks like the walkthrough importing the Gen 1 Rocket Hideout
+   Voltorb trick. **Treat the ball at (14,1) as an ordinary Escape Rope.**
+
+3. **"Pokemon found in Sprout Tower: Rattata, Bellsprout, Gastly."**
+   `data/wild/johto_grass.asm` gives Rattata (morn/day) and Gastly + Rattata
+   (nite) for `SPROUT_TOWER_2F` and `SPROUT_TOWER_3F`, and **no table at all**
+   for `SPROUT_TOWER_1F`. Bellsprout is not a Sprout Tower wild encounter; the
+   Bellsprouts are the sages' party members.
+
+4. **Sage Li's party order.** The walkthrough lists L7 Bellsprout, L10 Hoothoot,
+   L7 Bellsprout. `data/trainers/parties.asm` `SageGroup` "LI" is
+   `db 7, BELLSPROUT / db 7, BELLSPROUT / db 10, HOOTHOOT` - the Hoothoot is
+   last, not second. The 320G figure the walkthrough quotes only works with the
+   asm order, since `ComputeTrainerReward` uses the level of the **last** party
+   row (8 x 10 x 4 = 320).
+
+5. **Walkthrough trainer order in the gym.** The text says "Head up to fight
+   your trainer battles first. Bird Keeper Abe ... Head up the path to the
+   second trainer. Bird Keeper Rod." Geometrically that is correct (Abe at
+   y=10 is south of Rod at y=6), but be aware the *object const* order in the
+   file is Rod first (`VIOLETGYM_YOUNGSTER1`), Abe second
+   (`VIOLETGYM_YOUNGSTER2`), which is the opposite of the walk order. Do not
+   index trainers by object const when following the prose.
+
+6. **"You'll need the 1st badge to use it [Flash]".** True but incomplete:
+   `FlashFunction.CheckUseFlash` (`engine/events/overworld.asm`, `03:48f1`)
+   requires `ENGINE_ZEPHYRBADGE` **and** `wTimeOfDayPalset == DARKNESS_PALSET`.
+   With the badge, on any non-dark map, the move still fails through
+   `.notadarkcave` -> `FieldMoveFailed`. A bot should not treat "have badge" as
+   "Flash will work here".
+
+7. **EXP values.** The walkthrough quotes per-Pokemon EXP figures (54, 108, 126,
+   217, ...). Those are computed from base experience and level at runtime
+   (`engine/battle/experience.asm` / `data/pokemon/base_stats/`), not stored
+   anywhere as a per-trainer constant, so they were not verified against a
+   single asm line here. The **money** figures were: all seven quoted values
+   match `base reward x last party level x 4`.
+
+8. **"you should be around an hour into the game now"** and the video link -
+   prose, nothing to resolve.

+# Section 04 - Slowpoke Well & Azalea Town Gym
+
+Source: `../section-04-slowpoke-well-azalea-town-gym.txt`
+Maps covered: `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN`, `MAP_KURTS_HOUSE`, `MAP_AZALEA_POKECENTER_1F`,
+`MAP_SLOWPOKE_WELL_B1F`, `MAP_SLOWPOKE_WELL_B2F` (off-route, Surf-only),
+`MAP_AZALEA_GYM`. `MAP_AZALEA_MART` is referenced for its stock only
+(`data/items/marts.asm` `MartAzalea`); its map file was not transcribed.
+Badges / key milestones in this section: **HIVEBADGE** (`ENGINE_HIVEBADGE`),
+`EVENT_CLEARED_SLOWPOKE_WELL`, `EVENT_BEAT_BUGSY`, `TM_FURY_CUTTER` (TM49),
+`LURE_BALL`, `SUPER_POTION`, `WHT_APRICORN`, hidden `FULL_HEAL`. Clearing the
+well is what unlocks the Gym door and arms the Azalea rival battle for the next
+section.
+
+Coordinate convention throughout: the raw asm x/y from
+`warp_event` / `coord_event` / `bg_event` / `object_event`, i.e. walk cells
+(two 8x8 tiles per side, two cells per map block). `macros/scripts/maps.asm`
+adds the +4 border internally; the numbers below are the pre-border values as
+written in the map file.
+

+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN` | `maps/AzaleaTown.asm` | west edge of Route 33 (`connection east, Route33, ROUTE_33, 0` in `data/maps/attributes.asm`) | warp 4, `warp_event 9, 5, KURTS_HOUSE, 1` | Rocket guard is standing on the well; head west then north to Kurt's house |
+| 2 | `MAP_KURTS_HOUSE` | `maps/KurtsHouse.asm` | warp 1 (`3, 7`) | warps 1/2 (`3, 7` / `4, 7`) back to `AZALEA_TOWN` warp 4 | `Kurt1` first-visit arm: Kurt storms off to the well and sets `EVENT_AZALEA_TOWN_SLOWPOKETAIL_ROCKET`, which hides the guard |
+| 3 | `MAP_AZALEA_POKECENTER_1F` | `maps/AzaleaPokecenter1F.asm` | `AZALEA_TOWN` warp 1 (`15, 9`) | warps 1/2 (`3, 7` / `4, 7`) | "heal at the Pokemon Center" |
+| 4 | `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN` | `maps/AzaleaTown.asm` | Pokecenter warp | warp 6, `warp_event 31, 7, SLOWPOKE_WELL_B1F, 1` | walk east to the now-unguarded well |
+| 5 | `MAP_SLOWPOKE_WELL_B1F` | `maps/SlowpokeWellB1F.asm` | warp 1 (`17, 15`) | **scripted** `warp KURTS_HOUSE, 3, 3` at the end of `TrainerGruntM1.Script` | four Rocket grunts, Super Potion, tailless Slowpoke |
+| 6 | `MAP_KURTS_HOUSE` | `maps/KurtsHouse.asm` | script warp to `3, 3` | warps 1/2 | `Kurt1.ClearedSlowpokeWell` -> free `LURE_BALL` |
+| 7 | `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN` | `maps/AzaleaTown.asm` | Kurt's House warp | fruit tree object at `8, 2`, then warp 1 (Pokecenter) | `WHT_APRICORN` from `WhiteApricornTree` / `FRUITTREE_AZALEA_TOWN`, then heal |
+| 8 | `MAP_AZALEA_GYM` | `maps/AzaleaGym.asm` | `AZALEA_TOWN` warp 5, `warp_event 10, 15, AZALEA_GYM, 1` | warps 1/2 (`4, 15` / `5, 15`) | five gym trainers + Bugsy -> HIVEBADGE + TM49 |
+
+Off-route in this section: `MAP_SLOWPOKE_WELL_B2F` (`maps/SlowpokeWellB2F.asm`)
+hangs off `SLOWPOKE_WELL_B1F` warp 2 at `7, 11`, but the only land approach to
+that ladder is across water (see the derived grid under B1F) - it is a Surf
+return trip, not part of this visit, and holds the King's Rock and TM Rain Dance.
+
+Spills into the next section: `AzaleaTown_MapEvents` has
+`coord_event 5, 10` / `coord_event 5, 11` for `SCENE_AZALEATOWN_RIVAL_BATTLE`.
+`TrainerGruntM1.Script` arms that scene with
+`setmapscene AZALEA_TOWN, SCENE_AZALEATOWN_RIVAL_BATTLE`, so the rival ambush
+fires the first time you walk west toward the Ilex Forest gate. That battle and
+Ilex Forest belong to section 05.

+
+Two chokepoints matter: `31, 9` is the only walkable cell that reaches `31, 8`
+and then the well ladder at `31, 7`, and `10, 16` is the only walkable cell
+adjacent to the Gym door at `10, 15` (`9, 15`, `11, 15` and `10, 14` are all
+wall). The two Rocket objects sit exactly on those cells.
+
+**Scripts of interest**
+
+- `AzaleaTownFlypointCallback` - `MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP`; `setflag ENGINE_FLYPOINT_AZALEA`,
+  `endcallback`. Entering the map once is enough to register the fly point.
+- `AzaleaTownRocket1Script` / `AzaleaTownRocket2Script` -
+  `jumptextfaceplayer AzaleaTownRocket1Text` / `...Rocket2Text`. Pure flavour;
+  neither one gates anything by script. They block by standing on tiles.
+- `AzaleaTownGrampsScript` - `checkevent EVENT_CLEARED_SLOWPOKE_WELL` /
+  `iftrue .ClearedWell`, then one of `AzaleaTownGrampsTextBefore` /
+  `AzaleaTownGrampsTextAfter`. Cheap read-only probe of well state.
+- `WhiteApricornTree` - `fruittree FRUITTREE_AZALEA_TOWN`.
+  `constants/script_constants.asm:226` gives `FRUITTREE_AZALEA_TOWN ; 14` (hex),
+  and `data/items/fruit_trees.asm:23` is `db WHT_APRICORN ; AZALEA_TOWN`.
+  Once-per-day, tracked by the fruit-tree daily bit, not by an `EVENT_*`.
+- `AzaleaTownHiddenFullHeal` - `hiddenitem FULL_HEAL, EVENT_AZALEA_TOWN_HIDDEN_FULL_HEAL`;
+  reached by facing the wall cell `31, 6` from `31, 7`/`31, 5` neighbours.
+- `AzaleaTownRivalBattleScene1` / `...Scene2` / `AzaleaTownRivalBattleScript` -
+  next section. For completeness they `setevent EVENT_RIVAL_AZALEA_TOWN`,
+  branch on `EVENT_GOT_TOTODILE_FROM_ELM` / `EVENT_GOT_CHIKORITA_FROM_ELM`,
+  `loadtrainer RIVAL1, RIVAL1_2_TOTODILE|RIVAL1_2_CHIKORITA|RIVAL1_2_CYNDAQUIL`,

+`14, 8`/`15, 8` where `TrainerGruntM29` sees you -> continue north to the top
+room `9..14, 2..4`, where `TrainerGruntF1` at `13, 2` faces down with sight 2 ->
+Super Potion ball at `10, 3` -> back east/down through the gap at `11, 5` into

+`TrainerGruntM1` at `5, 2` (faces down, sight 1).
+

+
+**Scripts of interest**
+
+- `SlowpokeWellB1FKurtScript` - `jumptextfaceplayer SlowpokeWellB1FKurtText`.

+- `TrainerGruntM29` - `trainer GRUNTM, GRUNTM_29, EVENT_BEAT_ROCKET_GRUNTM_29, GruntM29SeenText, GruntM29BeatenText, 0, .Script`;
+  `.Script` is `endifjustbattled` + `GruntM29AfterBattleText`. Talking again is
+  the "they're chopping off Slowpoke tails" line the walkthrough mentions.
+- `TrainerGruntF1` - `trainer GRUNTF, GRUNTF_1, EVENT_BEAT_ROCKET_GRUNTF_1, ...`,
+  same `endifjustbattled` shape.
+- `TrainerGruntM2` - `trainer GRUNTM, GRUNTM_2, EVENT_BEAT_ROCKET_GRUNTM_2, ...`,
+  same shape.
+- `TrainerGruntM1` - **the section's payload.**
+  `trainer GRUNTM, GRUNTM_1, EVENT_BEAT_ROCKET_GRUNTM_1, GruntM1SeenText, GruntM1BeatenText, 0, .Script`.
+  `.Script` has no `endifjustbattled`, so it runs immediately after the win:
+  `writetext TrainerGruntM1WhenTalkText`, `special FadeOutToBlack`,
+  `special ReloadSpritesNoPalettes`,
+  `disappear` on consts 2/3/4/5 (all four share `EVENT_SLOWPOKE_WELL_ROCKETS`,
+  so this is the flag that clears the Gym door in town), `pause 15`,

+  `warp KURTS_HOUSE, 3, 3`, `end`. Note the free party heal, and note that the
+  Ilex Forest Farfetch'd quest is armed here, not in Ilex Forest.
+- `SlowpokeWellB1FSlowpokeWithMailScript` - `faceplayer`, `cry SLOWPOKE`,
+  `SlowpokeWellB1FSlowpokeWithMailText`, `yesorno` / `iftrue .ReadMail` ->
+  `SlowpokeWellB1FSlowpokeMailText`. No flag, no item, purely optional.
+- `SlowpokeWellB1FSuperPotion` - `itemball SUPER_POTION`, guarded by

+- `SlowpokeWellB1FBoulder` - `jumpstd StrengthBoulderScript`; needs Strength,

+
+It is a spiral. Entry `4, 15` / `5, 15` -> `4, 14`..`7, 14` -> the two
+entry stalks at columns 4-5 and 7 -> the row 10/11 ring -> up either side
+column (0-1 or 8-9) -> row 2/3 -> in at `4, 4` / `5, 4` -> `4, 5`..`6, 5` ->
+`3, 6` -> `3, 7` -> Bugsy at `5, 7`.
+
+Derived from the grid plus the sight fields: only the **twins** sit on the
+straight-line path (`4, 11` and `5, 11` are their sight cells), and even they
+are dodgeable by taking the column-7 stalk from `7, 14` up to `7, 11`. Josh's
+sight covers `0, 3`-`0, 5` so the left column is his; Al's covers `8, 9`-`8, 11`
+so the column-8 approach is his; column 9 is clear all the way from row 11 to
+row 3. Benny spins (`SPINRANDOM_FAST`, sight 2) at `5, 3`, so crossing row 2/3
+near column 5 is a coin flip rather than a guarantee.
+
+**Scripts of interest**
+
+- `AzaleaGymBugsyScript` -
+  `faceplayer`, `opentext`, `checkevent EVENT_BEAT_BUGSY` / `iftrue .FightDone`;
+  otherwise `BugsyText_INeverLose`,
+  `winlosstext BugsyText_ResearchIncomplete, 0` (no loss text - losing is a
+  whiteout), `loadtrainer BUGSY, BUGSY1`, `startbattle`, `reloadmapafterbattle`,
+  `setevent EVENT_BEAT_BUGSY`, `Text_ReceivedHiveBadge`,
+  `playsound SFX_GET_BADGE`, `waitsfx`, **`setflag ENGINE_HIVEBADGE`**,
+  `readvar VAR_BADGES`, `scall AzaleaGymActivateRockets`.
+  `.FightDone`: `checkevent EVENT_GOT_TM49_FURY_CUTTER` / `iftrue .GotFuryCutter`,
+  then - and this is the bot-relevant part -
+  ```
+  setevent EVENT_BEAT_TWINS_AMY_AND_MAY
+  setevent EVENT_BEAT_BUG_CATCHER_BENNY
+  setevent EVENT_BEAT_BUG_CATCHER_AL
+  setevent EVENT_BEAT_BUG_CATCHER_JOSH
+  ```
+  so beating Bugsy retroactively marks the five gym trainers beaten. Then
+  `BugsyText_HiveBadgeSpeech`, `promptbutton`,
+  `verbosegiveitem TM_FURY_CUTTER`, `iffalse .NoRoomForFuryCutter`,
+  `setevent EVENT_GOT_TM49_FURY_CUTTER`, `BugsyText_FuryCutterSpeech`.
+- `AzaleaGymActivateRockets` - `ifequal 7, .RadioTowerRockets`,
+  `ifequal 6, .GoldenrodRockets`, `end`. `VAR_BADGES`
+  (`constants/script_constants.asm:55`, id 7) is the badge count, which is 2
+  right after HIVEBADGE, so **this scall is a no-op at Bugsy**; it is the shared
+  gym-clear hook that only fires at the 6th and 7th badge.
+- `TrainerTwinsAmyandmay1` / `TrainerTwinsAmyandmay2` - both use
+  `EVENT_BEAT_TWINS_AMY_AND_MAY`, so you fight **one** twin, whichever spots you
+  first, and the other drops to her after-battle line.
+- `TrainerBugCatcherBenny` / `...Al` / `...Josh` - plain
+  `trainer BUG_CATCHER, <id>, EVENT_BEAT_BUG_CATCHER_<id>, ...` with
+  `endifjustbattled` after-scripts.
+- `AzaleaGymGuideScript` - `checkevent EVENT_BEAT_BUGSY`; the pre-battle text is
+  the "bug Pokemon don't like fire, flying-type moves are super-effective" hint.

+## 3. Blockers and gates
+
+| Gate | Enforced by (file:label) | Requirement | Unlock condition |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Rocket standing on the Slowpoke Well approach | `maps/AzaleaTown.asm` object const 2 at `31, 9`, flag `EVENT_AZALEA_TOWN_SLOWPOKETAIL_ROCKET`. `31, 9` is the only walkable neighbour of `31, 8`, which is the only walkable neighbour of the ladder at `31, 7` (derived from `maps/AzaleaTown.blk` + `data/tilesets/johto_modern_collision.asm`) | talk to Kurt once | `Kurt1` first-visit arm runs `setevent EVENT_AZALEA_TOWN_SLOWPOKETAIL_ROCKET`, which hides him (`Script_disappear` semantics, `engine/overworld/scripting.asm:887`) |
+| Rocket standing on the Azalea Gym door | `maps/AzaleaTown.asm` object const 12 at `10, 16`, flag `EVENT_SLOWPOKE_WELL_ROCKETS`. `10, 16` is the only walkable neighbour of the gym warp at `10, 15` | clear Slowpoke Well | the four `disappear SLOWPOKEWELLB1F_ROCKET*` calls in `maps/SlowpokeWellB1F.asm` `TrainerGruntM1.Script` set that shared flag |
+| Slowpoke Well B2F (King's Rock, TM Rain Dance) | `maps/SlowpokeWellB1F.asm` warp 2 at `7, 11`; the chamber's only outside neighbour is water at `7, 14` (derived from `maps/SlowpokeWellB1F.blk` + `data/tilesets/cave_collision.asm` + `data/collision/collision_permissions.asm`) | Surf (`ENGINE_FOGBADGE` + HM03) | out of section - Fog Badge is Morty |

+| Bugsy himself | `AzaleaGymBugsyScript` has no `checkevent` guard before the battle | nothing - the five gym trainers are optional | `.FightDone` force-sets all four of their beat events afterwards |
+
+## 4. Bot checklist
+
+Coordinates are `x, y` as written in the asm. "warp N" means the Nth
+`warp_event` row of the source map.
+
+1. `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN`, walk in from the Route 33 east connection. Post: engine
+   flag `ENGINE_FLYPOINT_AZALEA` set by `AzaleaTownFlypointCallback`
+   (`MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP`). No input needed.
+2. `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN`, walk to `9, 5` and step on it -> warp 4 ->
+   `MAP_KURTS_HOUSE` `3, 7`. Pre: none.
+3. `MAP_KURTS_HOUSE`, walk to `3, 3`, face UP, press A on object const 2
+   (`KURTSHOUSE_KURT1`, `3, 2`). Pre: `EVENT_CLEARED_SLOWPOKE_WELL` clear and
+   `EVENT_KURT_GAVE_YOU_LURE_BALL` clear. Post:
+   `EVENT_AZALEA_TOWN_SLOWPOKETAIL_ROCKET` set, `EVENT_KURTS_HOUSE_KURT_1` set
+   (Kurt walks out). If the player is facing UP when the script starts, Kurt
+   takes the `.RunAround` movement instead - same result, one extra step.
+4. `MAP_KURTS_HOUSE`, step on `3, 7` or `4, 7` -> `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN` warp 4 (`9, 5`).
+5. Optional heal: `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN` `15, 9` -> `MAP_AZALEA_POKECENTER_1F`;
+   talk to object const 2 at `3, 1` (`jumpstd PokecenterNurseScript`); leave via
+   `3, 7`.
+6. `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN`, walk east along row 10 to `31, 10`, north to `31, 9`
+   (now empty), `31, 8`, then step on `31, 7` -> warp 6 -> `MAP_SLOWPOKE_WELL_B1F`
+   `17, 15`. Optional: from `31, 7` face UP and press A for the hidden
+   `FULL_HEAL` at `31, 6` (post: `EVENT_AZALEA_TOWN_HIDDEN_FULL_HEAL`).
+7. `MAP_SLOWPOKE_WELL_B1F`, optional A on const 8 (`16, 14`, Kurt).
+8. Walk north along column 15 to `15, 8`. Trigger: const 2 `TrainerGruntM29`
+   (sight 1, faces right). Battle `GRUNTM` / `GRUNTM_29` (L9 Rattata x2).
+   Post: `EVENT_BEAT_ROCKET_GRUNTM_29`. Optional A again for the after-battle text.
+9. Continue north column 14 to `14, 4`, then west into the top room. Trigger:
+   const 5 `TrainerGruntF1` at `13, 2` (sight 2, faces down) from `13, 3` or
+   `13, 4`. Battle `GRUNTF` / `GRUNTF_1` (L9 Zubat, L11 Ekans). Post:
+   `EVENT_BEAT_ROCKET_GRUNTF_1`.
+10. Walk to `11, 3` -> `10, 3`, press A on const 10 -> `SUPER_POTION`. Post:
+    `EVENT_SLOWPOKE_WELL_B1F_SUPER_POTION`.
+11. Go to `11, 4` -> `11, 5` -> `11, 6`, then west along row 6. Trigger: const 4
+    `TrainerGruntM2` at `5, 6` (sight 2, faces right) from `7, 6` or `6, 6`.
+    Battle `GRUNTM` / `GRUNTM_2` (L7 Rattata, L9 Zubat, L9 Zubat). Post:
+    `EVENT_BEAT_ROCKET_GRUNTM_2`.
+12. Optional: `7, 5` face UP, A on const 6 at `7, 4` (Slowpoke with mail,
+    `yesorno` -> read). No flag.
+13. Walk to `5, 3`. Trigger: const 3 `TrainerGruntM1` at `5, 2` (sight 1, faces
+    down). Battle `GRUNTM` / `GRUNTM_1` (L14 Koffing). Post:
+    `EVENT_BEAT_ROCKET_GRUNTM_1`, then `.Script` runs with no `endifjustbattled`,
+    so the whole cutscene plays automatically and ends with
+    `special HealParty` + `warp KURTS_HOUSE, 3, 3`. Post-flags to assert:
+    `EVENT_CLEARED_SLOWPOKE_WELL`, `EVENT_SLOWPOKE_WELL_ROCKETS`,
+    `EVENT_SLOWPOKE_WELL_SLOWPOKES`, `EVENT_SLOWPOKE_WELL_KURT`,
+    `EVENT_CHARCOAL_KILN_FARFETCH_D`, `EVENT_CHARCOAL_KILN_APPRENTICE`;
+    cleared: `EVENT_AZALEA_TOWN_SLOWPOKES`, `EVENT_KURTS_HOUSE_SLOWPOKE`,
+    `EVENT_KURTS_HOUSE_KURT_1`, `EVENT_ILEX_FOREST_APPRENTICE`,
+    `EVENT_ILEX_FOREST_FARFETCHD_1`; scene: `AZALEA_TOWN` -> `SCENE_AZALEATOWN_RIVAL_BATTLE`.
+14. `MAP_KURTS_HOUSE` at `3, 3`, face UP, A on const 2. Pre:
+    `EVENT_CLEARED_SLOWPOKE_WELL` set, `EVENT_KURT_GAVE_YOU_LURE_BALL` clear.
+    Post: `LURE_BALL` in bag, `EVENT_KURT_GAVE_YOU_LURE_BALL` set. The script
+    then falls straight into the apricorn prompt - answer no unless you want to
+    hand over the White Apricorn you have not picked yet.
+15. Leave via `3, 7`; in `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN` walk to `8, 3`, face UP, A on const 10
+    at `8, 2` -> `WHT_APRICORN` (daily). Optional: return to Kurt and give it
+    (`special SelectApricornForKurt`, post: `EVENT_GAVE_KURT_WHT_APRICORN` +
+    `ENGINE_KURT_MAKING_BALLS`), then come back a real in-game day later for
+    `FAST_BALL`.
+16. Optional heal at the Pokecenter (`15, 9`).
+17. `MAP_AZALEA_TOWN`, walk to `10, 17` -> `10, 16` (now empty) -> step on
+    `10, 15` -> warp 5 -> `MAP_AZALEA_GYM` `4, 15`.
+18. `MAP_AZALEA_GYM`: optional A on const 8 at `7, 13` for the type hint.
+    Walk `4, 14` -> `4, 13` -> `4, 12` -> `4, 11`. Trigger: const 6
+    `TrainerTwinsAmyandmay1` at `4, 10` (sight 1). Battle `TWINS` / `AMYANDMAY1`
+    (L10 Spinarak, L10 Ledyba). Post: `EVENT_BEAT_TWINS_AMY_AND_MAY`, which also
+    retires const 7.
+19. West along row 11 to `0, 11`, north up column 0 to `0, 5`. Trigger: const 5
+    `TrainerBugCatcherJosh` at `0, 2` (sight 3, faces down). Battle
+    `BUG_CATCHER` / `JOSH` (L13 Paras). Post: `EVENT_BEAT_BUG_CATCHER_JOSH`.
+20. North to `0, 3`, east along row 3 toward `4, 3`. Trigger: const 3
+    `TrainerBugCatcherBenny` at `5, 3` (sight 2, spins). Battle
+    `BUG_CATCHER` / `BENNY` (L7 Weedle, L9 Kakuna, L12 Beedrill). Post:
+    `EVENT_BEAT_BUG_CATCHER_BENNY`.
+21. East along row 2/3 to column 8-9, south to `8, 11`. Trigger: const 4
+    `TrainerBugCatcherAl` at `8, 8` (sight 3, faces down). Battle
+    `BUG_CATCHER` / `AL` (L12 Caterpie, L12 Weedle). Post:
+    `EVENT_BEAT_BUG_CATCHER_AL`.
+22. Route into the middle: `4, 3` or `5, 3` row -> `4, 4` -> `4, 5` -> `3, 5` ->
+    `3, 6` -> `3, 7` -> `4, 7`, face RIGHT, A on const 2 at `5, 7`. Pre:
+    `EVENT_BEAT_BUGSY` clear. Battle `BUGSY` / `BUGSY1` (L14 Metapod, L14 Kakuna,
+    L16 Scyther). Post: `EVENT_BEAT_BUGSY`, `ENGINE_HIVEBADGE`, then the same
+    conversation continues and yields `TM_FURY_CUTTER` +
+    `EVENT_GOT_TM49_FURY_CUTTER` and force-sets the four gym-trainer events.
+    A bot that wants the badge fast can skip steps 19-21 entirely.
+23. Leave via `4, 15` / `5, 15`. Next section starts when you walk west and hit
+    `coord_event 5, 10` / `5, 11`.

+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+- **Bug Catcher Al's prize.** The walkthrough says 200G. The asm gives
+  4 (`data/trainers/attributes.asm:215`) x 12 (last mon, L12 Weedle) x 4 = **192G**.
+  Every other figure in the section matches the formula exactly
+  (360 / 440 / 360 / 560 / 200 / 208 / 192 / 1600), so this looks like a
+  walkthrough typo, not a special case.
+- **Bugsy's gender.** The walkthrough says "Bugsy and her apprentices" and
+  "she may have the Bug Pokemon". `AzaleaGymGuideText` in `maps/AzaleaGym.asm`
+  says "BUGSY's young, but **his** knowledge of bug #MON is for real". The asm
+  wins.
+- **"Liz the Picnicker calls about Moo Moo Milk."** `LizPhoneCallerScript`
+  (`engine/phone/scripts/trainers.asm:234-254`) only does
+  `PhoneScript_GreetPhone_Female`, a `checkflag ENGINE_FLYPOINT_GOLDENROD`
+  rematch gate, `PhoneScript_Random2` and `Phone_GenericCall_Female` /
+  `Phone_CheckIfUnseenRare_Female`. There is no Moo Moo Milk text in her script,
+  and no `MOOMOO` string turned up anywhere under `engine/phone/`. The generic
+  call pool may contain such a line, but it is not attributable to Liz from the
+  map/phone scripts - unresolved.
+- **"TM49" listed under *Items found in Azalea Town*.** TM49 is
+  `verbosegiveitem TM_FURY_CUTTER` inside `AzaleaGymBugsyScript`, i.e. found in
+  `MAP_AZALEA_GYM`, not on the town map. Cosmetic, but a bot indexing by map
+  should not look for it outdoors.
+- **Battle order inside Slowpoke Well.** The walkthrough's "move on up the
+  stairs", "head down the stairs" prose does not correspond to any `LADDER` or
+  `STAIRCASE` collision inside B1F - the only two ladder cells are the two warps
+  (`17, 15` and `7, 11`). The trainer order it describes (M29 -> F1 -> M2 -> M1)
+  does match the geometry, so the "stairs" are just prose for the corridors.
+- **`SLOWPOKE_WELL_B2F` reachability.** I derived "Surf only" from
+  `maps/SlowpokeWellB1F.blk` decoded against `data/tilesets/cave_collision.asm`
+  and `data/collision/collision_permissions.asm`; no script or engine check
+  states it. If a future reader wants a stronger citation, it would have to come
+  from the block data, not from an `EVENT_*`.
+- **Gym-trainer skippability.** The claim that Josh, Al and (via the column-7
+  stalk) the twins can be walked past is derived from `maps/AzaleaGym.blk` plus
+  each object's sight field, not asserted anywhere in the asm. The retroactive
+  `setevent` block in `AzaleaGymBugsyScript.FightDone` is direct asm evidence
+  that skipping them is an anticipated state, but the exact dodge path should be
+  confirmed in-game before a driver depends on it.
+- **`variablesprite SPRITE_AZALEA_ROCKET, SPRITE_RIVAL`.** This is why
+  `AZALEATOWN_RIVAL` is declared with `SPRITE_AZALEA_ROCKET` in
+  `maps/AzaleaTown.asm`. It also means consts 2 and 12 on that map would draw as
+  the rival if they were still visible after the well is cleared - they are not,
+  because both are hidden by then. Worth a look if a port ever renders them.

+Source: `../section-06-bug-catching-contest-and-sudowoodo.txt`
+Maps covered: `MAP_GOLDENROD_FLOWER_SHOP`, `MAP_ROUTE_35_GOLDENROD_GATE`, `MAP_ROUTE_35`,
+`MAP_ROUTE_35_NATIONAL_PARK_GATE`, `MAP_NATIONAL_PARK`, `MAP_NATIONAL_PARK_BUG_CONTEST`,
+`MAP_ROUTE_36_NATIONAL_PARK_GATE`, `MAP_ROUTE_36`, `MAP_ROUTE_37` (listed by the
+walkthrough header, never entered by its route)
+
+Badges / key milestones in this section:
+
+- SQUIRTBOTTLE (key item) - gated behind `ENGINE_PLAINBADGE`, i.e. Whitney must already
+  be beaten before this section can be started at all.
+- Bug-Catching Contest run (Tue/Thu/Sat only) - SUN STONE / EVERSTONE / GOLD BERRY / BERRY.
+- `EVENT_FOUGHT_SUDOWOODO` - the single event that unblocks Route 36 west<->east, which
+  is the only land route between Goldenrod and Violet through Route 36.
+- TM08 ROCK SMASH (`EVENT_GOT_TM08_ROCK_SMASH`), TM04 ROLLOUT, TM28 DIG, QUICK CLAW.

+
+## 1. Route order
+
+The walkthrough's own prose is out of order in one place: it opens by collecting the
+SQUIRTBOTTLE in Goldenrod, then much later describes Floria running off to fetch it.
+In pokegold the SQUIRTBOTTLE has no Route 36 precondition at all (see
+"Unresolved / verify by hand"), so the opening order is the one a bot should follow.

+| 10 | `MAP_ROUTE_36` (again) | `maps/Route36.asm` | north connection from `ROUTE_35` | **east connection -> `VIOLET_CITY`** | Sudowoodo cleared, then east into Violet City |
+
+Spills into the next section: step 10's east connection
+(`connection east, VioletCity, VIOLET_CITY, 0` in `data/maps/attributes.asm`) drops the
+player into `MAP_VIOLET_CITY`, which belongs to a neighbouring section. Route 37
+(`MAP_ROUTE_37`, north connection off Route 36 with offset 10) is named in this section's
+header but the walkthrough never routes into it; its data is recorded below for
+completeness because the item list ("Blk/Blu/Red Apricorn", "Ice Berry") mixes 36 and 37.

+
+- `TrainerOfficerDirk` - **not** an `OBJECTTYPE_TRAINER` object. It is a plain script that

+  `winlosstext OfficerDirkBeatenText, 0`, `loadtrainer OFFICER, DIRK`, `startbattle`,
+  `reloadmapafterbattle`, `setevent EVENT_BEAT_OFFICER_DIRK`. A daytime bot will get
+  `OfficerDirkPrettyToughText` and no battle.
+- `TrainerJugglerIrwin` / `TrainerBugCatcherArnie` - standard phone trainers. After the
+  win, `checkcellnum PHONE_JUGGLER_IRWIN` / `PHONE_BUG_CATCHER_ARNIE`, then
+  `setevent EVENT_IRWIN_ASKED_FOR_PHONE_NUMBER` / `EVENT_ARNIE_ASKED_FOR_PHONE_NUMBER`

+
+**Cut tree** - `maps/Route35.blk` has exactly one cuttable block: block id `$5b` at block

+cut, and Bug Catcher Arnie at (16, 7) sits immediately behind it. Route 36, Route 37 and
+National Park have **no** cuttable blocks (National Park's `.park` entry in

+bonus assembled from bit 1 of each DV nibble, then `remaining HP / 8`, then `+1` if the
+mon is holding an item. Five of the ten AI contestants are rolled by
+`ComputeAIContestantScores`, each picking one of three canned mon/score pairs from
+`BugContestantPointers` (`data/events/bug_contest_winners.asm`) with a 0..7 random
+perturbation. `DetermineContestWinners` keeps a 3-deep podium.
+
+**Prizes** - `BugContestResultsScript` (`40:420e`, `engine/events/std_scripts.asm:275`):
+

+| 3rd | `GOLD_BERRY` | `EVENT_CONTEST_OFFICER_HAS_GOLD_BERRY` |
+| consolation | `BERRY` | `EVENT_CONTEST_OFFICER_HAS_BERRY` |
+
+First place also sets `EVENT_TEMPORARY_UNTIL_MAP_RELOAD_1`. The tail of the script clears
+`ENGINE_BUG_CONTEST_TIMER`, sets all twenty `EVENT_BUG_CATCHING_CONTESTANT_*` flags, sets
+`ENGINE_DAILY_BUG_CONTEST`, and resets both gate scenes to their NOOP.

There is no `SQUIRTBOTTLE` arm, so `_Squirtbottle` is unreachable from the PACK. The talk-to-the-tree path (`SudowoodoScript`'s `checkitem`) still works, which is the route the walkthrough takes |
+| **Item ball pickup** (TM04 on Route 35, TM28 DIG and PARLYZ HEAL in National Park) | extractor reads them (`src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua:2969` `obj.itemball = readItemBall(...)`) but `src/world/gen2/World.lua:5257` `World:interact` only dispatches on `npc.def.trainer`, strength boulders, `npc.def.scriptKey`, bg events and hidden items | **missing** - `OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL` objects have no `scriptKey` by design, and nothing consumes `obj.itemball`.

+
+---
+
+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+1. **"Talk to Floria... while she goes away to get the Squirtbottle."** No such script
+   exists in pokegold. `maps/GoldenrodFlowerShop.asm` has a `GOLDENRODFLOWERSHOP_FLORIA`
+   object at (5, 6) whose `FlowerShopFloriaScript` only prints text, and the girl on
+   Route 36 at (51, 8) is an anonymous `ROUTE36_LASS1` running `Route36LassScript`, which
+   also only prints text. The SQUIRTBOTTLE comes from `FlowerShopTeacherScript` gated on
+   `ENGINE_PLAINBADGE` alone, with no Route 36 precondition. The described sequence looks
+   like Crystal behaviour that leaked into a Gold/Silver walkthrough.
+2. **Contest Pokemon list.** The walkthrough lists "Caterpie/Weedle, Nincada, Scyther,
+   Pinsir, Volbeat, Wurmple" at "Levels 28-31". `data/wild/bug_contest_mons.asm` has
+   CATERPIE, WEEDLE, METAPOD, KAKUNA, BUTTERFREE, BEEDRILL, VENONAT, PARAS, SCYTHER,
+   PINSIR at levels 7-18 (plus VENOMOTH 30-40 on the `-1` terminator row, which is never
+   selected). NINCADA, VOLBEAT and WURMPLE do not exist in Gen 2 at all. Treat the
+   walkthrough's list and levels as wrong for this game.
+3. **"20 Sport Balls."** The item is `PARK_BALL` (`constants/item_constants.asm:185`),
+   given by `special GiveParkBalls`, count `BUG_CONTEST_BALLS = 20`. "Sport Ball" is the
+   Gen 3+ name.
+4. **"If you win the contest, you can win a Shiny Stone!"** First place gives `SUN_STONE`
+   (`BugContestResults_FirstPlace`, `engine/events/std_scripts.asm:346`). The
+   walkthrough's own item list ("Sun Stone (1st Prize)") agrees; the prose line does not.
+   There is no Shiny Stone in Gen 2.
+5. **"If you catch a Scyther at full HP, it may be worth around 342 points."** Not
+   verifiable from the asm without a concrete mon: `ContestScore` (`04:7cbc`) is
+   `MaxHP*4 + Atk + Def + Spe + SpA + SpD + DVbonus + HP/8 + heldItem`, all taken from the
+   high byte of each stat word. The walkthrough's qualitative claim ("score takes HP into
+   consideration") is confirmed; the specific number is not checked here.
+6. **National Park species list.** The walkthrough lists Butterfree, Weedle, Kakuna,
+   Beedrill, Paras, Venonat, Scyther and Pinsir as "found in National Park". None of them
+   appear in `def_grass_wildmons NATIONAL_PARK`; they are Contest-only
+   (`data/wild/bug_contest_mons.asm`). Sunkern, Caterpie, Metapod, Pidgey and Hoothoot are
+   the only real National Park grass encounters in Gold.
+7. **"Routes 36 & 37" item and species lists are merged.** Everything the walkthrough
+   attributes to "Routes 36 & 37" except the ICE BERRY, HARD STONE and TM08 actually lives
+   on Route 37 (`RED_APRICORN`, `BLU_APRICORN`, `BLK_APRICORN`; Ledyba/Spinarak/Pidgeotto),
+   which this section never enters. Vulpix/Growlithe and Stantler appear on both routes.
+8. **"Route 35 & National Park" item list omits the hidden FULL HEAL** at National Park
+   bg (6, 47) and lists no hidden items at all. Not a contradiction, just incomplete.
+9. **"Head back to Arnie and talk to *her*."** `BUG_CATCHER, ARNIE1` uses the male phone
+   std scripts (`AskNumber1MScript`, `RegisteredNumberMScript`). Cosmetic only.
+10. **"Then, we're ready to head into Route 35 after Liz's offer for a rematch on Route
+    32."** Liz's rematch is a phone event outside this section's maps; no code on any map
+    in this section references it, so it was not resolved here.
+11. **`EVENT_FOUGHT_SUDOWOODO` is set before the DRAW check** in
+    `WateredWeirdTreeScript`, and both the win branch and `DidntCatchSudowoodo` run
+    `disappear ROUTE36_WEIRD_TREE`. So the walkthrough's "catch it or else" is a
+    preference, not a gate - fainting or fleeing still opens the road and still unlocks
+    TM08. Worth confirming in-game that a *black-out* mid-battle does not leave a
+    half-applied state, which the asm alone cannot answer.
+12. **`MAP_NATIONAL_PARK_BUG_CONTEST` warps 2 and 4 point at destination warp 1**, not 2,
+    in `maps/NationalParkBugContest.asm:228,230`. Transcribed verbatim; a bot pathing off
+    those rows should expect the asymmetry rather than assume a typo.

+Object-event visibility convention (verified in `engine/overworld/scripting.asm:879-898`): `appear`
+*clears* the flag and `disappear` *sets* it, so **an object is on the map only while its event flag
+is clear.**

+**Scripts of interest**
+
+- `GoldenrodUndergroundCheckDayOfWeekCallback` (`callback MAPCALLBACK_OBJECTS`): `readvar VAR_WEEKDAY`
+  and appear/disappear the four merchants. Who is standing there:
+  - Sunday: younger brother + granny
+  - Monday: gramps only, and only during `MORN` (`checktime MORN`)
+  - Tuesday / Thursday: **older brother**
+  - Wednesday / Friday: younger brother
+  - Saturday: older brother + granny
+
+  The walkthrough's "500 haircut" therefore only exists on **Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday**.
+- `OlderHaircutBrotherScript` (`46:4129`): `readvar VAR_WEEKDAY`, bails to
+  `GoldenrodUndergroundScript_ShopClosed` unless TUE/THU/SAT. Then
+  `checkflag ENGINE_GOLDENROD_UNDERGROUND_GOT_HAIRCUT` (one cut per day, cleared by the daily
+  reset), `yesorno`, `checkmoney YOUR_MONEY, 500`, `special OlderHaircutBrother`, then
+  `takemoney YOUR_MONEY, 500`. `DEF GOLDENRODUNDERGROUND_OLDER_HAIRCUT_PRICE EQU 500` is at the top
+  of the file. The special returns 0/1 (cancel or Egg) or 2/3/4, which the script mirrors into
+  `EVENT_TEMPORARY_UNTIL_MAP_RELOAD_1/2/3` just to pick which of three "looks happier" lines to
+  print.
+- `special OlderHaircutBrother` -> `engine/events/haircut.asm:15` -> `HaircutOrGrooming`, weighted
+  roll over `HappinessData_OlderHaircutBrother` (`data/events/happiness_probabilities.asm:1`):
+  30% -> `HAPPINESS_OLDERCUT1`, 50%+1 -> `HAPPINESS_OLDERCUT2`, remainder -> `HAPPINESS_OLDERCUT3`.

+  `+1/+1/+1`, `+3/+3/+1`, `+5/+5/+2` (columns are happiness <100 / <200 / otherwise).
+  The younger brother (300, SUN/WED/FRI) rolls 60%+1 / 30% / rest for `+1/+1/+1`, `+3/+3/+1`,

+
+  `VAR_BADGES` is `CountSetBits` over the two `wBadges` bytes

+  `GoldenrodRocketsScript` fires: `clearevent EVENT_GOLDENROD_CITY_ROCKET_TAKEOVER`
+  (`engine/events/std_scripts.asm:251-253`), which makes the two Rocket grunts appear in Goldenrod
+  City at (28, 20) and (8, 15) (`maps/GoldenrodCity.asm:376-377`). Every gym carries the same
+  `scall` (`maps/VioletGym.asm:31`, `maps/MahoganyGym.asm:34`, ...), so whichever gym hands you

+`engine/battle/core.asm:2340-2360` adds `wBattleReward` **four times** (`ld c, 4`). 875 x 4 =
+**3500**, which matches the walkthrough exactly. (Note Jasmine's AI holds a `HYPER_POTION`.)
+
+Badge effect check: `BadgeStatBoosts` (`engine/battle/core.asm:6533-6588`) - the comment block
+states "MineralBadge: Defense", and the code deliberately swaps the PlainBadge and MineralBadge
+bits before the every-other-badge walk, boosting the stat at `wBattleMonDefense` by 1/8
+(`BoostStat`). Separately `data/types/badge_type_boosts.asm:7` maps MINERALBADGE to `STEEL` for the
+type-matching trainer-card/boost table. So the walkthrough's "raises your Pokemon's defense
+slightly" is correct.
+
+**Trainers**
+
+| const | class | id | party (`data/trainers/parties.asm` label) | script label | rematch/phone |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `JASMINE` / `JASMINE1` | `JASMINE` (trainer class 6, `constants/trainer_constants.asm:42-43`) | 1 | `JasmineGroup` (`0e:5a42`, `data/trainers/parties.asm:53`) | `OlivineGymJasmineScript` | none (gym leaders have no phone row) |
+
+`JasmineGroup`, verbatim (`TRAINERTYPE_MOVES`):
+
+```
+db "JASMINE@", TRAINERTYPE_MOVES
+db 30, MAGNEMITE,  THUNDERBOLT, SUPERSONIC, SONICBOOM, THUNDER_WAVE
+db 30, MAGNEMITE,  THUNDERBOLT, SUPERSONIC, SONICBOOM, THUNDER_WAVE
+db 35, STEELIX,    SCREECH, SUNNY_DAY, ROCK_THROW, IRON_TAIL
+db -1 ; end
+```
+
+EXP check against the walkthrough's numbers: trainer EXP is `base * level / 7 * 3 / 2`.
+Magnemite base exp 89 (`data/pokemon/base_stats/magnemite.asm:8`) -> `89*30/7 = 381`, `*3/2 = 571`.
+Steelix base exp 196 (`data/pokemon/base_stats/steelix.asm:8`) -> `196*35/7 = 980`, `*3/2 = 1470`.
+Both match.
+
+**Wild encounters** - none (`INDOOR`).

+## 3. Blockers and gates
+
+| Gate | Enforced by (file:label) | Requirement | Unlock condition |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Jasmine is not in her gym | `maps/OlivineGym.asm:212` object row, event flag `EVENT_OLIVINE_GYM_JASMINE`; visibility semantics in `engine/overworld/scripting.asm:879-898` | flag must be **clear** | `clearevent EVENT_OLIVINE_GYM_JASMINE` at `maps/OlivineLighthouse6F.asm:69` |
+| Jasmine will not leave the lighthouse | `maps/OlivineLighthouse6F.asm:14` `checkitem SECRETPOTION` | `SECRETPOTION` in the bag (from the Cianwood Pharmacy, section 8) | hand it over and answer **Yes** to `JasmineCureAmphyText` (`yesorno` at line 29; `iffalse .Refused` aborts the whole scene) |
+| Cannot Fly to Olivine / Goldenrod | `engine/events/overworld.asm:544-547` (`FlyFunction.TryFly` -> `ld de, ENGINE_STORMBADGE` / `call CheckBadge`), mirrored in the port at `src/world/gen2/FieldMoves.lua:107` (`FLY = "STORM"`), plus `ENGINE_FLYPOINT_OLIVINE` (id 70) / `ENGINE_FLYPOINT_GOLDENROD` (id 69) set by each town's `MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP` (`maps/OlivineCity.asm:22`, `maps/GoldenrodCity.asm:24`) | `ENGINE_STORMBADGE` + having visited the town on foot | both already true entering this section |
+| Haircut unavailable | `OlderHaircutBrotherScript` `readvar VAR_WEEKDAY` + `GoldenrodUndergroundCheckDayOfWeekCallback` | in-game weekday must be TUE/THU/SAT for the 500 brother | wait for the day, or use the younger brother SUN/WED/FRI for 300 |
+| Second haircut same day | `checkflag ENGINE_GOLDENROD_UNDERGROUND_GOT_HAIRCUT` (engine flag 89) | flag clear | daily reset |
+| 4F of the lighthouse is a dead end from the (13, 3) ladder | geometry: 4F pit at (8, 3)/(9, 3), block `$28` in `maps/OlivineLighthouse4F.blk`, warps 7/8 | must step into the pit and re-climb via 3F warp 3 at (9, 5) | no flag, purely navigational |
+| No TM pocket room | `verbosegiveitem TM_IRON_TAIL` -> `iffalse .NoRoomForIronTail` (`maps/OlivineGym.asm:35-36`) | free TM slot | drop a TM and re-talk to Jasmine |
+
+Nothing in this section requires `CUT`, `SURF`, `STRENGTH`, `WHIRLPOOL`, `WATERFALL` or `FLASH`.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Bot checklist
+
+Optional Eevee-happiness detour (steps 1-5) can be skipped entirely.
+
+1. **Fly** to `SPAWN_GOLDENROD`. Precondition: `ENGINE_STORMBADGE` set and `ENGINE_FLYPOINT_GOLDENROD` (id 69) set. Postcondition: on `GOLDENROD_CITY`.
+2. `GOLDENROD_CITY`: walk to (11, 29), step onto warp 15. Postcondition: on `GOLDENROD_UNDERGROUND_SWITCH_ROOM_ENTRANCES` at warp 5 (4, 29).
+3. `GOLDENROD_UNDERGROUND_SWITCH_ROOM_ENTRANCES`: walk to (5, 25), step onto warp 4. Postcondition: on `GOLDENROD_UNDERGROUND` at warp 2 (3, 34).
+4. `GOLDENROD_UNDERGROUND`: precondition `VAR_WEEKDAY in {TUESDAY, THURSDAY, SATURDAY}` and `ENGINE_GOLDENROD_UNDERGROUND_GOT_HAIRCUT` clear and money >= 500. Walk to (6, 14) and face RIGHT (the brother stands at (7, 14) facing left); talk. Answer **Yes**, pick the Eevee. Postcondition: `ENGINE_GOLDENROD_UNDERGROUND_GOT_HAIRCUT` set, money -500, Eevee happiness +1/+3/+5.
+5. Retrace warps out (warp 2 at (3, 34) -> switch-room warp 5/6 at (4, 29)/(5, 29) -> `GOLDENROD_CITY`).
+6. **Fly** to `SPAWN_OLIVINE`. Precondition: `ENGINE_FLYPOINT_OLIVINE` (id 70). Postcondition: on `OLIVINE_CITY`.
+7. `OLIVINE_CITY`: walk to (29, 27), step onto warp 9. Postcondition: on `OLIVINE_LIGHTHOUSE_1F` at warp 1 (10, 17).
+8. `1F`: walk to (3, 11), step on ladder-up. -> `2F` (3, 11).
+9. `2F`: walk to (5, 3), ladder-up. -> `3F` (5, 3). (Sailor Huey (9, 3) and Gentleman Alfred (17, 8) are already beaten; their `EVENT_BEAT_*` flags guard re-battle.)
+10. `3F`: walk to (13, 3), ladder-up. -> `4F` (13, 3).
+11. `4F`: walk to the pit at (8, 3) or (9, 3) - "left of Lass Connie at (11, 2)". Step in. -> `3F` (8, 3)/(9, 3).
+12. `3F`: walk to (9, 5), ladder-up. -> `4F` (9, 5).
+13. `4F`: walk to (9, 7), ladder-up. -> `5F` (9, 7). (Alternative: 4F (3, 5) -> 5F (3, 5).)
+14. `5F`: walk to (9, 15), ladder-up. -> `6F` (9, 15). Confirm arrival by `MUSIC_VIOLET_CITY` playing (6F is the only lighthouse floor with it).
+15. `6F`: precondition `SECRETPOTION` in bag and `EVENT_OLIVINE_LIGHTHOUSE_JASMINE` clear. Walk to (8, 9) and face UP (Jasmine at (8, 8) faces down) and talk. Answer **Yes** to `JasmineCureAmphyText`. Sit through ~120 frames of cutscene (`pause 60`, `pause 15`, several `pause 10`). Postcondition: `SECRETPOTION` removed, `EVENT_JASMINE_RETURNED_TO_GYM` set, `EVENT_OLIVINE_GYM_JASMINE` **cleared**, `EVENT_OLIVINE_LIGHTHOUSE_JASMINE` set.
+16. Descend: `6F` pit at (16, 5)/(17, 5) -> `5F`; `5F` pit at (16, 7)/(17, 7) -> `4F`; `4F` pit at (16, 9)/(17, 9) -> `3F`; `3F` pit at (16, 11)/(17, 11) -> `2F`; `2F` pit at (16, 13)/(17, 13) -> `1F`. Then `1F` (10, 17)/(11, 17) facing DOWN -> `OLIVINE_CITY` warp 9 at (29, 27).
+17. `OLIVINE_CITY`: (optional) heal at the Pokecenter, warp 1 at (13, 21). Save before the gym.
+18. `OLIVINE_CITY`: walk to (10, 11), step onto warp 2. Postcondition: on `OLIVINE_GYM` at warp 1 (4, 15).
+19. `OLIVINE_GYM`: (optional) talk to the guide by walking to (7, 14) and facing UP.
+20. `OLIVINE_GYM`: hold UP along x=5 from (5, 14) to (5, 4), face UP, talk to Jasmine at (5, 3). Precondition: `EVENT_OLIVINE_GYM_JASMINE` clear, `EVENT_BEAT_JASMINE` clear, a free TM slot. Battle `loadtrainer JASMINE, JASMINE1`.
+21. Win. Postconditions in order: `EVENT_BEAT_JASMINE` set -> `ENGINE_MINERALBADGE` set -> money +3500 -> `VAR_BADGES` re-read -> if it equals 6, `EVENT_GOLDENROD_CITY_ROCKET_TAKEOVER` cleared (Rockets appear in Goldenrod) -> `verbosegiveitem TM_IRON_TAIL` -> `EVENT_GOT_TM23_IRON_TAIL` set.
+22. Leave via (4, 15)/(5, 15) facing DOWN -> `OLIVINE_CITY` warp 2 (10, 11).
+
+Battle notes for the driver: lead a Fire or Fighting attacker; both Magnemite carry
+`THUNDER_WAVE` (paralysis risk) and `SONICBOOM` (fixed 20 damage, ignores type - it will connect on
+a Ground type); Steelix has `IRON_TAIL` and `SUNNY_DAY` (which boosts your own Fire moves too).

+| Trainer card badge display | `src/ui/gen2/TrainerCard.lua`; leader palette list at `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua:4982` | implemented |
+| **`BadgeStatBoosts`** - the MINERALBADGE +1/8 Defense (and the PlainBadge/MineralBadge bit swap) | nothing found. `grep -i badge src/battle/gen2/` returns no hits; the only badge-boost code in the repo is Gen 1's (`src/battle/Damage.lua:24`, `src/battle/BattleState.lua:439`) | **missing** |
+| **`BadgeTypeBoosts`** (`data/types/badge_type_boosts.asm`, MINERALBADGE -> STEEL) | no hits for `BadgeTypeBoosts` anywhere in `src/` | **missing** |
+| A driver that walks the lighthouse or fights a gym leader | `tests/drivers/gold_*.lua` - `gold_trainer_smoke.lua` and `gold_battle_smoke.lua` exist but neither names Olivine or Jasmine | **missing** (no section-9 driver) |
+
+---
+
+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+- **"Climb up the Olivine Lighthouse in the EXACT same way you came up."** The ladder/pit graph in
+  section 2 is fully decoded from the `.blk` files and `data/tilesets/lighthouse_collision.asm`, but
+  I did **not** flood-fill each floor to prove the specific walking path between a ladder and the
+  next pit. Steps 8-14 of the checklist are the geometrically obvious route (and the pit at 4F
+  (8, 3)/(9, 3) really is left of Lass Connie at (11, 2)), but the intermediate tile-by-tile route
+  on 3F, 4F and 5F should be confirmed in-game before a driver hard-codes it.
+- **"Talk to the man who is running the second/middle shop."** The asm has four merchant objects in
+  one column at x=7: gramps y=11, older brother y=14, younger brother y=15, granny y=21, and
+  `GoldenrodUndergroundCheckDayOfWeekCallback` hides most of them on any given day. "Middle" is
+  therefore day-dependent; the unambiguous identifier is the **500 price**
+  (`GOLDENRODUNDERGROUND_OLDER_HAIRCUT_PRICE`), i.e. the older brother at (7, 14), available
+  TUE/THU/SAT only. The walkthrough does not mention the weekday restriction at all.
+- **"Eevee's happiness meter should get a nice boost."** The older brother's roll is +1 (30%),
+  +3 (50%) or +5 (20%) at happiness < 200. The younger brother's top roll is +10. The walkthrough's
+  implied "500 is the better option" is not supported by
+  `data/events/happiness_probabilities.asm` / `data/events/happiness_changes.asm`.
+- **"Say Yes to the fact that Ampharos will be cured by the medicine."** Confirmed as a hard
+  requirement (`yesorno` / `iffalse .Refused` at `maps/OlivineLighthouse6F.asm:29-30`), but note the
+  refusal path is *recoverable*: it sets nothing, so the player can simply talk again.
+- **EXP values (571 / 1470)** are reproduced by the standard trainer formula from the base-exp bytes
+  I read, but I did not open the EXP-award routine itself to confirm the `*3/2` trainer multiplier
+  in this disassembly; treat those two numbers as arithmetic agreement rather than a code citation.
+- **`data/trainers/attributes.asm` Jasmine row**: the file has no per-class labels, only ordered
+  comment headers. I identified Jasmine's row by the `; Jasmine` comment (sixth block, `db 25 ;
+  base reward`, `db HYPER_POTION, NO_ITEM`). If that comment ever drifts from the class order in
+  `constants/trainer_constants.asm`, the 3500 derivation drifts with it.
+- The walkthrough's "you can go to the Lake of Rage first" branch is out of scope here; nothing in
+  the Olivine Gym asm checks for it.

+## 5. Port coverage
+
+| Beat | Port file | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| Map headers / warps / coord events / bg events / objects for all six maps | `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua`, `src/world/gen2/Map.lua` | implemented (generic extraction, nothing map-specific needed) |
+| Map scenes + `sdefer` scene scripts | `src/world/gen2/World.lua` (`World:scene`, `mapScenes`), `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua` (`sdefer`, `setscene`, `setmapscene`) | implemented |
+| Coord-event trip-wires | `src/world/gen2/World.lua` (coord event dispatch) | implemented |
+| `changeblock` (mart staircase, both password doors) | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua:1006` - the comment cites `MahoganyMart1F`'s `changeblock 6, 2, $1e` and cell `(7,3)` by name | implemented |
+| `BGEVENT_IFNOTSET` / `conditional_event` (both password doors) | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:5147 World:bgEventAt` only matches `(ev.kind or 0) == 0`; `src/world/gen2/HiddenItems.lua` handles kind 7 | **missing** - pressing A on the transmitter door or Giovanni's door does nothing in the port |
+| Ice sliding (`STEP_ICE`, `CheckStandingOnIce` forced d-pad) | `src/world/gen2/Permissions.lua:128 ICE` exists but is only consumed by `FieldMoves.canEncounterWildMon`; `World:movePlayer` picks step frames from `Bike.stepFrames` only | **missing** - Mahogany Gym floor behaves as ordinary floor, so the puzzle and the trainer sight lines are wrong |
+| Trainer sight range / approach | `src/world/gen2/Trainers.lua` (`Trainers.sees`, `Trainers.approach`) | implemented (`sight 0` on GruntF5 falls out naturally) |
+| `itemball` / `hiddenitem` | `src/script/gen2/CallAsm.lua`, `src/world/gen2/HiddenItems.lua` | implemented |
+| `verbosegiveitem HM_WHIRLPOOL` | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua`, `src/script/gen2/Opcodes.lua` | implemented |
+| Whirlpool field move + GLACIERBADGE gate | `src/world/gen2/FieldMoves.lua:109` (`WHIRLPOOL = "GLACIER"`), `.somethingToWhirlpool`, `.whirlpoolFromMenu`, `.tryWhirlpoolOW`, `WHIRLPOOL_BLOCKS` | implemented |
+| `loadwildmon` + `BATTLETYPE_TRAP` | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:4587` (names "TRAP 9 (the Rocket base)"), `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua:699` | implemented |
+| `special HealParty` / `FadeOutToWhite` / `FadeInFromWhite` / `PlayMapMusic` / `ReloadSpritesNoPalettes` / `FadeOutToBlack` / `FadeInFromBlack` / `RestartMapMusic` / `FadeOutMusic` | `src/script/gen2/Specials.lua:450, 992-1066` | implemented |
+| `moveobject` / `appear` / `disappear` / `applymovement` / `follow` / `showemote` | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua`, `src/script/gen2/Movement.lua`, `src/world/gen2/World.lua` | implemented |
+| `jumpstd` (`TeamRocketOathScript`, `GymStatue1/2Script`, `PokecenterSignScript`, `RadioTowerRocketsScript`) | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua:742`, `data/generated/std_scripts.lua` via `World.lua:635` | implemented (generic) |
+| `readvar VAR_BADGES` for `MahoganyGymActivateRockets` | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:117,1240` | implemented |
+| `specialphonecall SPECIALCALL_WEIRDBROADCAST` | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua:1364` stores the id; `src/core/gen2/Phone.lua` delivers | implemented |
+| `ENGINE_ROCKET_SIGNAL_ON_CH20` radio behaviour | `src/ui/gen2/Pokegear.lua:816-821, 1097` | implemented |
+| Driver coverage for this stretch | `tests/drivers/gold_*.lua` - none touches Mahogany, the hideout or Pryce (`gold_icepath_boulder.lua` is the only Mahogany-adjacent one, and it is Ice Path boulders) | **missing** |
+
+The two "missing" rows are the blocking ones: without `BGEVENT_IFNOTSET` the
+hideout cannot be completed, and without ice sliding the gym cannot be crossed.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+- **Floor labels in the walkthrough are wrong past the first password.** It says
+  "go up the stairs at the upper-right part of the floor, then head left on Negative
+  Floor 2 ... Head up the stairs to Negative Floor 1. Head right and then before you
+  reach the locked door, your rival will come." The rival coord event
+  (`8,10`) and Giovanni's office are both on **B3F**, not B1F. The route is
+  B3F(right) -> B2F(top) -> B3F(left). Verified by flood-filling
+  `maps/TeamRocketBaseB2F.blk` / `maps/TeamRocketBaseB3F.blk`: the four B2F warps
+  and four B3F warps sit in disconnected rooms, and B2F warp 2 `(3,2)` reaches
+  B3F `(3,2)` which is the region containing `8,10`.
+- **Boarder Ronald's party order.** Walkthrough lists Seel 24 / Seel 24 / Dewgong 25;
+  `data/trainers/parties.asm` `BOARDER (1)` is SEEL 24, DEWGONG 25, SEEL 24.
+  Same three mon, different lead order. Same class of discrepancy for
+  `GRUNTM_18` (walkthrough Rattata/Rattata/Zubat, asm Rattata/Zubat/Rattata).
+- **Item list is incomplete.** The walkthrough's "Items in the Team Rocket Hideout"
+  block lists six; the asm has ten: the six named plus `FULL_HEAL` and `DIRE_HIT`
+  item balls on B3F (mentioned later in the prose) and two hidden items the
+  walkthrough never mentions - `REVIVE` at B1F `(3,11)` and `FULL_HEAL` at B2F
+  `(26,7)`.
+- **"Every time you pass one of those statues, two Team Rocket grunts will fight
+  you"** is right, but the walkthrough implies only two statues on the first floor.
+  There are five (`bg_event` at `24,1`, `6,1`, `24,5`, `8,15`, `22,15`) with eight
+  trigger cells, i.e. up to ten grunt battles if none are skipped.
+- **`EVENT_TEAM_ROCKET_BASE_POPULATION` is dead.** It is the shared visibility flag
+  of eleven base NPCs and is read by all eight `SecurityCamera*` scripts, but a
+  full-tree grep finds no `setevent`, `clearevent` or `disappear` that writes it.
+  Those `checkevent ... iftrue NoSecurityCamera` arms therefore never take, and the
+  Rocket NPCs stay on the maps forever - including after the hideout is cleared.
+  Flagged in case a bot author expects the base to empty out.
+- **Lance's three right-hand Electrodes are never battled.** `RocketElectrodeN`
+  disappears both members of a mirrored pair, and the objects at `22,5`/`22,7`/`22,9`
+  point at the no-op `ObjectEvent` script. The walkthrough's "Lance runs to the right
+  to take the Electrodes on the right" is flavour; the game just hides them.
+- **Exact reachability of `19,11` (the secret switch)** was checked by collision
+  (`19,11` is a WALL, `19,12` is FLOOR and in the single B1F region), but the
+  in-game facing direction for the `BGEVENT_READ` was not observed running - the
+  bg event type is `BGEVENT_READ`, not `BGEVENT_UP`, so any adjacent facing should
+  work; worth confirming on hardware if a driver misses it.
+- The gym slide table in section 2 was produced by simulating
+  `engine/overworld/player_movement.asm`'s ice rule against the decoded
+  `maps/MahoganyGym.blk`, treating NPCs as blockers. It reproduces every direction
+  string in the walkthrough, but it has not been executed in an emulator.

+
+Source: `../section-15-mount-mortar-and-dark-cave.txt`
+Maps covered: `MAP_MOUNT_MORTAR_1F_OUTSIDE`, `MAP_MOUNT_MORTAR_1F_INSIDE`,
+`MAP_MOUNT_MORTAR_2F_INSIDE`, `MAP_MOUNT_MORTAR_B1F`,
+`MAP_DARK_CAVE_BLACKTHORN_ENTRANCE`, `MAP_DARK_CAVE_VIOLET_ENTRANCE`.
+Touched in passing (owned by neighbouring sections): `MAP_MAHOGANY_TOWN`,
+`MAP_ROUTE_42`, `MAP_BLACKTHORN_CITY`, `MAP_ROUTE_45`, `MAP_ROUTE_31`,
+`MAP_ROUTE_46`.
+
+Badges / key milestones in this section: **no badge**. The milestones are
+`EVENT_BEAT_BLACKBELT_KIYO` + `EVENT_GOT_TYROGUE_FROM_KIYO` (a free level 10
+`TYROGUE`, the only one in the game) and `EVENT_GOT_BLACKGLASSES_IN_DARK_CAVE`.
+Everything else here is optional loot. Nothing in this section gates any later
+section.
+
+A note on coordinates: every table below is transcribed verbatim from the map's
+`_MapEvents` block in the named `maps/*.asm` file. `warp_event`, `coord_event`,
+`bg_event` and `object_event` all share one coordinate space (the
+`object_event` macro in `macros/scripts/maps.asm` applies the +4 border offset
+itself), so the numbers are directly comparable. A map declared
+`map_const NAME, W, H` spans x in `0 .. 2W-1` and y in `0 .. 2H-1`.
+
+A note on the `event flag` column of `object_event`:
+`engine/overworld/map_objects_2.asm` `CheckObjectFlag` **hides** the object when
+the flag is set, and `-1` means always visible. So for a Poke Ball, "flag set =
+already taken = gone".
+
+A note on darkness: all six maps in this section are `PALETTE_DARK` in
+`data/maps/maps.asm`. `engine/tilesets/timeofday_pals.asm`
+`ReplaceTimeOfDayPals` (`23:43e9`) sends `PALETTE_DARK` down `.NeedsFlash`,
+which writes `DARKNESS_PALSET` unless `STATUSFLAGS_FLASH_F` is set in
+`wStatusFlags`. That bit is set by `BlindingFlash` (`engine/events/field_moves.asm`)
+and cleared by `ResetFlashIfOutOfCave` (`home/flag.asm`, `00:2f1d`) on any map
+whose `wEnvironment` is `ROUTE` or `TOWN`. **A bot must re-cast Flash every time
+it re-enters, including after every Fly.**

+Spill into the next section: the walkthrough's video links name Blackthorn Gym,
+Route 45/46, Tohjo Falls, Routes 26/27, Victory Road and the Elite Four, but its
+**prose** stops at "head back south to actually take Route 45". `MAP_ROUTE_45`
+proper, `MAP_ROUTE_46`, `MAP_BLACKTHORN_GYM` and everything past them belong to
+the next section; only the Route 45 warp that reaches Dark Cave is documented
+here.
+
+`MAP_DARK_CAVE_VIOLET_ENTRANCE` is also reachable from `ROUTE_46` warp 3 at
+(14,5) (-> Dark Cave warp 3 at (35,33)) and from `ROUTE_31` warp 3; the earlier
+sections that visit Route 31 already touch the north end of this map. This
+section only walks it top-to-bottom-left, from the Blackthorn side out to

+- The battle is unconditional on first talk (no `checkevent` guard before

+- `readvar VAR_PARTYCOUNT` / `ifequal PARTY_LENGTH` is the "you have no room"
+  branch. `PARTY_LENGTH` is 6. **If the party is full, `EVENT_BEAT_BLACKBELT_KIYO`
+  is already set but `EVENT_GOT_TYROGUE_FROM_KIYO` is not**, so re-talking
+  re-enters at `.BeatKiyo` and offers the Tyrogue again. This is why the
+  walkthrough tells you to free a slot in advance - but it is recoverable, not
+  missable.
+- `givepoke TYROGUE, 10` - level 10, no held item, no nickname prompt in this

+Note the four rocks all share one script label; the smash `disappear LAST_TALKED`

+on every map reload.

+**Scripts of interest**
+
+`DarkCaveVioletEntranceRock` - `jumpstd SmashRockScript`
+(`engine/events/std_scripts.asm:199` -> `farsjump AskRockSmashScript`, `03:4f60`).
+`AskRockSmashScript` calls `HasRockSmash` (`03:4f7f`), which is **inverted**
+(`wScriptVar = 1` when the party does NOT know ROCK SMASH); on 0 it prompts
+yes/no and falls into `RockSmashScript` (`03:4f35`):
+`playsound SFX_STRENGTH` / `earthquake 84` / `applymovementlasttalked MovementData_RockSmash`
+/ `disappear LAST_TALKED` / `callasm RockMonEncounter` / `randomwildmon` /

+
+**Rock smash encounters** - this map IS in `data/wild/treemon_maps.asm:46`
+`RockMonMaps`: `treemon_map DARK_CAVE_VIOLET_ENTRANCE, TREEMON_SET_ROCK`.
+`RockMonEncounter` (`2e:63a1`) rolls `RandomRange 10 < 4` (a 40% chance) and then

+
+## 3. Blockers and gates
+
+| Gate | Enforced by (file:label) | Requirement | Unlock condition |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Darkness on all six maps | `engine/tilesets/timeofday_pals.asm` `ReplaceTimeOfDayPals` (`23:43e9`) `.NeedsFlash` -> `DARKNESS_PALSET`, because `data/maps/maps.asm` lines 127-130 / 148-149 all say `PALETTE_DARK` | FLASH cast, i.e. `STATUSFLAGS_FLASH_F` set in `wStatusFlags` | `engine/events/overworld.asm` `FlashFunction.CheckUseFlash` (`03:48f1`): `ENGINE_ZEPHYRBADGE` **and** `wTimeOfDayPalset == DARKNESS_PALSET`. The bit is cleared by `home/flag.asm` `ResetFlashIfOutOfCave` (`00:2f1d`) on any `ROUTE`/`TOWN` map, so **re-cast after every exit and every Fly** |
+| Mt. Mortar middle entrance (`ROUTE_42` warp 4 at (28,9)) | terrain: the tile is across water on Route 42 | SURF | `engine/events/overworld.asm` `SurfFunction` (`03:493b`), `.TrySurf` arm / `TrySurfOW` (`03:4a06`): `ENGINE_FOGBADGE` + a party member knowing SURF |
+| The lake and the waterfall between 1F Outside and 2F | terrain on `MountMortar1FOutside.blk`; the only route to warp 4 at (17,5) | SURF, then WATERFALL | `WaterfallFunction.TryWaterfall` (`03:4af6`) / `TryWaterfallOW` (`03:4b5f`): `ENGINE_RISINGBADGE`, then `CheckMapCanWaterfall` - **player must be facing UP and the tile ABOVE (`wTileUp`) must be a waterfall tile** |
+| `MOUNTMORTAR1FINSIDE_BOULDER` at (21,43) | `MountMortar1FBoulder` -> `jumpstd StrengthBoulderScript` -> `AskStrengthScript` (`03:4d4e`) | STRENGTH toggled on | `TryStrengthOW` (`03:4d7b`): party knows STRENGTH **and** `ENGINE_PLAINBADGE` **and** `BIKEFLAGS_STRENGTH_ACTIVE_F` set. `StrengthFunction.TryStrength` (`03:4cf1`) only checks the badge. Note `ResetBikeFlags` clears the active bit on **every map load** - Strength must be re-activated per floor |
+| `MOUNTMORTARB1F_BOULDER` at (9,10) | `MountMortarB1FBoulder`, same std script | STRENGTH | as above. This is the walkthrough's "move the rock with HM Strength to get out"; the alternative is an Escape Rope |
+| Kiyo's Tyrogue | `MountMortarB1FKiyoScript` `readvar VAR_PARTYCOUNT` / `ifequal PARTY_LENGTH, .NoRoom` | 5 or fewer party members | free a slot and re-talk; `EVENT_BEAT_BLACKBELT_KIYO` stays set so the battle is not repeated |
+| Dark Cave water crossings (both entrances) | terrain | SURF | `ENGINE_FOGBADGE` as above |
+| `DARKCAVEVIOLETENTRANCE_ROCK1..4` | `DarkCaveVioletEntranceRock` -> `jumpstd SmashRockScript` -> `AskRockSmashScript` (`03:4f60`) | a party member knowing ROCK SMASH (TM08) | `HasRockSmash` (`03:4f7f`) - **no badge check at all** for Rock Smash |
+| Fly between Mahogany and Blackthorn | `engine/events/overworld.asm:545` (the `.TryFly` arm of the Fly jumptable) `ld de, ENGINE_STORMBADGE` | `ENGINE_STORMBADGE` + the destination's `ENGINE_FLYPOINT_*` (`constants/engine_flags.asm:87`, `:89`) | both flypoints are set by visiting the towns in earlier sections |
+
+Badge constants used above: `ENGINE_ZEPHYRBADGE` (`constants/engine_flags.asm:38`),
+`ENGINE_PLAINBADGE` (`:40`), `ENGINE_FOGBADGE` (`:41`), `ENGINE_STORMBADGE`
+(`:43`), `ENGINE_RISINGBADGE` (`:45`). All are checked through
+`engine/events/overworld.asm` `CheckBadge` (line 50), which prints
+"Badge required" and returns carry.
+
+**Nothing in this section gates anything else.** Both Mt. Mortar and Dark Cave
+are entirely optional; a bot that skips them loses only items, the Tyrogue and
+the Blackglasses.

+No driver in `tests/drivers/gold_*.lua` visits Mt. Mortar or Dark Cave.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+1. **The walkthrough's Mt. Mortar item list is the HGSS list, not the GS list.**
+   It names Carbos, Escape Rope x2, Full Restore, Hyper Potion x2, Max Ether,
+   Max Potion, Max Revive, PP Up, Rare Candy, Dragon Scale and "TM40 Aerial
+   Ace". What is actually in `maps/MountMortar*.asm` is: ETHER, GUARD_SPEC,
+   hidden HYPER_POTION (1F Outside); ESCAPE_ROPE, MAX_REVIVE, HYPER_POTION,
+   hidden MAX_REPEL (1F Inside); MAX_POTION, RARE_CANDY, TM_DEFENSE_CURL,
+   DRAGON_SCALE, ELIXER, ESCAPE_ROPE, hidden FULL_RESTORE (2F Inside);
+   HYPER_POTION, FULL_HEAL, hidden MAX_REVIVE (B1F). **No CARBOS, no PP_UP, no
+   MAX_ETHER, no IRON anywhere in Mt. Mortar.** TM40 is the right *number* but
+   the move is DEFENSE_CURL (`constants/item_constants.asm:261`); Aerial Ace is
+   a Gen 3 move that does not exist in this disassembly.
+2. **"grab the free Iron on the cliff" (1F Inside, after coming down from 2F).**
+   There is no IRON object on any Mt. Mortar map. The nearest items to warp 6 at
+   (9,9) are the MAX_REVIVE ball at (16,10) and the hidden MAX_REPEL bg event at
+   (31,9). Treat "Iron" as an HGSS-only pickup.
+3. **"surf clockwise around and reach a Hyper Potion and a Max Ether."** There is
+   no MAX_ETHER in Mt. Mortar. If the intended floor is B1F (the ladder from the
+   central entrance) the pair is HYPER_POTION (31,17) + FULL_HEAL (4,16); if 2F,
+   the closest analogue is ELIXER (8,9). Which one the author meant could not be
+   determined from the asm.
+4. **Kiyo's prize money and EXP yields.** The walkthrough gives 816G and
+   1012/1020 EXP. `data/trainers/parties.asm` only carries the class, name, type
+   byte and party; the money formula lives in the battle engine's
+   `data/trainers/attributes.asm` base-money table times level, which was not
+   opened for this document. The party itself is verified: L34 HITMONLEE, L34
+   HITMONCHAN, `TRAINERTYPE_NORMAL` (default moves, no held items).
+5. **"a giant room where you can zig zag around ... and get two items, to include
+   a Hyper Potion and Escape Rope."** `MOUNT_MORTAR_1F_INSIDE` actually holds
+   *three* balls (ESCAPE_ROPE (33,22), MAX_REVIVE (16,10), HYPER_POTION (12,21))
+   plus a hidden MAX_REPEL - but MAX_REVIVE and the hidden item sit on the
+   section of the map only reachable from 2F, which is presumably why the
+   walkthrough counts two.
+6. **"The west entrance and east entrance lead to each other."** All three Route
+   42 doors land on the same map, `MOUNT_MORTAR_1F_OUTSIDE`; the west/east link
+   runs through `MOUNT_MORTAR_1F_INSIDE` via warp pairs 5/6 (at y=21) and 8/9
+   (at y=13). The blk files were not decoded, so the exact walkable path between
+   any two of these warps is not verified here - only the warp graph is.
+7. **Dark Cave Pokemon list.** The walkthrough lists Zubat, Golbat, Geodude,
+   Graveler, Magikarp and Wobbuffet - that is the `DARK_CAVE_BLACKTHORN_ENTRANCE`
+   table exactly. It omits DUNSPARCE, which is slot 7 of
+   `DARK_CAVE_VIOLET_ENTRANCE` and is on the map the route exits through.
+8. **Dark Cave item list.** The walkthrough lists Blackglasses, Full Heal, Hyper
+   Potion, Revive and TM13. The Full Heal (36,22) and Hyper Potion (35,9) are on
+   `DARK_CAVE_VIOLET_ENTRANCE`'s north-east lobe, which this route does not pass
+   through; the hidden ELIXER at (26,3) is not mentioned at all. The POTION at
+   (6,8) is named in the prose but missing from the list.
+9. **The Shuckle/Krabby rock-smash table** (`data/wild/treemon_maps.asm:46`,
+   `data/wild/treemons.asm:91`) is real and reachable at
+   `DARK_CAVE_VIOLET_ENTRANCE`, but the walkthrough never mentions it. Worth
+   flagging to a bot author as a cheap Shuckle source.
+10. **`MOUNT_MORTAR_1F_OUTSIDE` object 2 flag naming.** The item is
+    `GUARD_SPEC` but the event flag is `EVENT_MOUNT_MORTAR_1F_OUTSIDE_REVIVE`
+    (`constants/event_flags.asm:1053`). Verbatim from the disassembly; not a
+    transcription error here, but it will look like one to anyone grepping by
+    item name.
+11. **Mahogany Town and Blackthorn City interiors** (Poke Center, Mart, gym) were
+    not opened for this document - only their `data/maps/maps.asm` header rows
+    and `data/maps/spawn_points.asm` entries. Those maps belong to neighbouring
+    sections.

+# Section 17 - Victory Road
+
+Source: `../section-17-victory-road.txt` (the FAQ numbers this chapter "23 > Victory Road")
+Maps covered: `MAP_VICTORY_ROAD`, `MAP_VICTORY_ROAD_GATE` (entry gate, badge check)
+Badges / key milestones in this section: no badge. Milestones are the fifth and
+final `RIVAL1` battle (`EVENT_RIVAL_VICTORY_ROAD`), TM26 Earthquake, and the
+north exit onto Route 23 / Indigo Plateau.
+
+Important structural fact the walkthrough hides: **Gold/Silver Victory Road is a
+single 10x36-block map**, not three floors. What the FAQ calls "first / second /
+third floor" are three vertically stacked regions of the same map joined by
+`warp_event` rows whose destination map is `VICTORY_ROAD` itself. Every "ladder"
+and the "hole" are self-warps inside `maps/VictoryRoad.asm`.
+

+## 2. Maps
+
+### MAP_VICTORY_ROAD
+
+- Script: `maps/VictoryRoad.asm` (included from `data/maps/scripts.asm:24`)
+- Blocks: `maps/VictoryRoad.blk` (360 bytes; `data/maps/blocks.asm:962`)
+- Header: `data/maps/maps.asm:160`
+  `map VictoryRoad, TILESET_CAVE, CAVE, LANDMARK_VICTORY_ROAD, MUSIC_VICTORY_ROAD, TRUE, PALETTE_NITE, FISHGROUP_SHORE`
+  (per the `map` macro at the head of `data/maps/maps.asm`: tileset, environment,
+  location, music, phone-service flag TRUE = phone calls suppressed, time-of-day
+  palette, fishing group.)
+- Attributes: `data/maps/attributes.asm:494` `map_attributes VictoryRoad, VICTORY_ROAD, $1d` - border block `$1d`, and **no `connection` rows follow**, so the map has no overworld connections.
+- Dimensions: `constants/map_constants.asm:147` `map_const VICTORY_ROAD, 10, 36` -> 10x36 blocks = **20x72 walk cells**. Group `DUNGEONS` (group 3), map id 82.
+- Scene variable: `data/maps/scenes.asm:60` `scene_var VICTORY_ROAD, wVictoryRoadSceneID` (sym `01:d6eb`)
+- Callbacks: `def_callbacks` is empty - no `MAPCALLBACK_*` for this map.
+- Connections: none.
+
+**Warps** (`def_warp_events`, transcribed from `maps/VictoryRoad.asm:242-252`)
+
+| idx | x | y | destination map | dest warp |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | 9 | 67 | `VICTORY_ROAD_GATE` | 5 |
+| 2 | 1 | 49 | `VICTORY_ROAD` | 3 |
+| 3 | 1 | 35 | `VICTORY_ROAD` | 2 |
+| 4 | 13 | 31 | `VICTORY_ROAD` | 5 |
+| 5 | 13 | 17 | `VICTORY_ROAD` | 4 |
+| 6 | 17 | 33 | `VICTORY_ROAD` | 7 |
+| 7 | 17 | 19 | `VICTORY_ROAD` | 6 |
+| 8 | 0 | 11 | `VICTORY_ROAD` | 9 |
+| 9 | 0 | 27 | `VICTORY_ROAD` | 8 |
+| 10 | 13 | 5 | `ROUTE_23` | 3 |
+
+Self-warp pairs, as a bot should read them: 2<->3, 4<->5, 6<->7, 8->9.
+Warp 8's tile is `COLL_PIT` and warp 9's tile is plain `COLL_FLOOR`, so **warp 9
+never fires**: the hole at (0,11) is one-way down to (0,27). (Tile kinds verified
+below.)
+
+**Coord events** (`def_coord_events`, `maps/VictoryRoad.asm:254-256`)
+
+| scene | x | y | script label | effect |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `SCENE_VICTORYROAD_RIVAL_BATTLE` (0) | 12 | 8 | `VictoryRoadRivalLeft` (sym `42:59ba`) | rival is teleported to (18,11), walks LEFTx6 + UPx2 to (12,9), battle, then leaves DOWNx2 + RIGHTx6 |
+| `SCENE_VICTORYROAD_RIVAL_BATTLE` (0) | 13 | 8 | `VictoryRoadRivalRight` (sym `42:59dd`) | rival walks from (18,13) UPx2 + LEFTx5 + UPx2 to (13,9), battle, then leaves DOWNx2 + RIGHTx5 + DOWNx2 |
+
+These two tiles are the entire width of the corridor that leads to the exit
+(y=8 is walkable only at x=6,7 and x=12,13), so the ambush is unavoidable.
+
+**BG events** (`def_bg_events`, `maps/VictoryRoad.asm:258-260`)
+
+| x | y | type | script/item |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 3 | 29 | `BGEVENT_ITEM` | `VictoryRoadHiddenMaxPotion` = `hiddenitem MAX_POTION, EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_HIDDEN_MAX_POTION` |
+| 3 | 65 | `BGEVENT_ITEM` | `VictoryRoadHiddenFullHeal` = `hiddenitem FULL_HEAL, EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_HIDDEN_FULL_HEAL` |
+
+Both target tiles are `COLL_WALL`, i.e. the player stands next to them and
+presses A into the wall. (3,29) is faced from (2,29), (4,29) or (3,28);
+(3,65) is faced from (2,65), (4,65), (3,64) or (3,66).
+
+**Object events** (`def_object_events`, `maps/VictoryRoad.asm:262-268`)
+
+Column order follows the `object_event` macro in `macros/scripts/maps.asm:113`:
+x, y, sprite, movement, radius x, radius y, hour1, hour2, palette, type, sight,
+script, event flag.
+
+| const | sprite | x | y | movement | type | script label | event flag |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `VICTORYROAD_RIVAL` | `SPRITE_RIVAL` | 18 | 13 | `SPRITEMOVEDATA_STANDING_UP` | `OBJECTTYPE_SCRIPT` | `ObjectEvent` (shared ROM0 stub, sym `00:2812`) | `EVENT_RIVAL_VICTORY_ROAD` |
+| `VICTORYROAD_POKE_BALL1` | `SPRITE_POKE_BALL` | 3 | 28 | `SPRITEMOVEDATA_STILL` | `OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL` | `VictoryRoadTMEarthquake` = `itemball TM_EARTHQUAKE` | `EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_TM_EARTHQUAKE` |
+| `VICTORYROAD_POKE_BALL2` | `SPRITE_POKE_BALL` | 12 | 48 | `SPRITEMOVEDATA_STILL` | `OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL` | `VictoryRoadMaxRevive` = `itemball MAX_REVIVE` | `EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_MAX_REVIVE` |
+| `VICTORYROAD_POKE_BALL3` | `SPRITE_POKE_BALL` | 18 | 29 | `SPRITEMOVEDATA_STILL` | `OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL` | `VictoryRoadFullRestore` = `itemball FULL_RESTORE` | `EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_FULL_RESTORE` |
+| `VICTORYROAD_POKE_BALL4` | `SPRITE_POKE_BALL` | 15 | 48 | `SPRITEMOVEDATA_STILL` | `OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL` | `VictoryRoadFullHeal` = `itemball FULL_HEAL` | `EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_FULL_HEAL` |
+| `VICTORYROAD_POKE_BALL5` | `SPRITE_POKE_BALL` | 7 | 38 | `SPRITEMOVEDATA_STILL` | `OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL` | `VictoryRoadXSpecial` = `itemball X_SPECIAL` | `EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_X_SPECIAL` |
+
+All rows use radius 0,0, hours -1,-1 (always present), palette 0, sight 0.
+
+Object-flag polarity (this bites bot authors): `CheckObjectFlag` in
+`engine/overworld/map_objects_2.asm:32` masks an object when its event flag is
+**set**, and shows it when the flag is clear or is `-1`. `Script_appear` clears
+the flag, `Script_disappear` sets it (`engine/overworld/scripting.asm:879-897`).
+`InitializeEventsScript` in `engine/events/std_scripts.asm:521` sets
+`EVENT_RIVAL_VICTORY_ROAD` at new game, so the rival object starts hidden and is
+only revealed by the `appear` inside the ambush script.
+
+**Derived collision map** (not verbatim asm - built by decoding
+`maps/VictoryRoad.blk` through `data/tilesets/cave_collision.asm` and
+`data/collision/collision_permissions.asm`, with the quadrant index
+`(x & 1) + 2 * (y & 1)` taken from `GetCoordTileCollision` in
+`home/map.asm:2065`). It is included because Victory Road is the one map in this
+section where "which tile can I stand on" is the whole problem.
+
+Verification: all ten `warp_event` tiles land on the expected collision
+(`WARP_CARPET_DOWN`, six `LADDER`, `PIT`, `FLOOR`, `CAVE`) and all six
+`object_event` tiles land on walkable tiles, so the decode is aligned.
+
+Legend: `.` floor, `#` wall (impassable), `^` `COLL_UP_WALL` (walkable, but you
+cannot step *down* into it and cannot step *up* off it), `L` ladder, `P` pit,
+`C` cave exit, `W` warp carpet (needs a DOWN press), `<` `HOP_LEFT`,
+`>` `HOP_RIGHT`, `v` `HOP_DOWN` (all three are walkable land; pressing the
+matching direction while standing on one jumps two tiles - see `.TryJump` and
+`.ledge_table` in `engine/overworld/player_movement.asm:354-391`, which reads the
+tile the player is **standing on**, not the tile ahead).

+One-way transitions a bot must respect (all derived from the grid above):
+
+- (0,11) `PIT` -> (0,27). No route back up from (0,27); the return is a ledge.
+- (8,28) or (8,29) `HOP_RIGHT` + RIGHT -> (10,28) / (10,29), which reaches the (13,31) ladder. This is the short way out of the TM pocket.
+- (2,30) or (3,30) `HOP_DOWN` + DOWN -> (2,32) / (3,32), which drops into the pocket that holds the (1,35) ladder. This is the long way out of the TM pocket.
+- (16..19, 34) `HOP_DOWN` + DOWN -> (16..19, 36). This is the only exit from the Full Restore shelf, and it is why the FAQ says "jump down".
+- (8,20) or (8,21) `HOP_RIGHT` + RIGHT -> (10,20) / (10,21) in the top region.
+- Rows of `^` (`COLL_UP_WALL`) are walkable dead strips: you may enter them from the side or from below and leave sideways or downward, never upward, and you can never step down onto one.

+Row 11 is walkable only at x=8 (where the officer stands) and x=10, so

+**Scripts of interest**
+
+- `_VictoryRoadGateBadgeCheckScript` (`maps/VictoryRoadGate.asm:25`, sym `5f:4fe3`):
+  `writetext VictoryRoadGateOfficerText`, `promptbutton`, `readvar VAR_BADGES`,
+  `ifgreater NUM_JOHTO_BADGES - 1, .AllEightBadges`. On failure it prints
+  `VictoryRoadGateNotEnoughBadgesText` and `applymovement PLAYER,
+  VictoryRoadGateStepDownMovement` (one `step DOWN`, pushing the player back
+  south). On success it prints `VictoryRoadGateEightBadgesText` and
+  `setscene SCENE_VICTORYROADGATE_NOOP`, permanently disarming the coord event.
+- `VictoryRoadGateOfficerScript` (`maps/VictoryRoadGate.asm:23`) - `faceplayer`
+  then the same body, so talking to the officer also opens the gate.
+
+## 3. Blockers and gates
+
+| Gate | Enforced by (file:label) | Requirement | Unlock condition |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Entry to Victory Road | `maps/VictoryRoadGate.asm:19` `VictoryRoadGateBadgeCheckScript` / `_VictoryRoadGateBadgeCheckScript` | `readvar VAR_BADGES` then `ifgreater NUM_JOHTO_BADGES - 1` (that is, badge count must be >= 8). `NUM_JOHTO_BADGES` = 8 (`constants/ram_constants.asm:260`). `VAR_BADGES` resolves to `.CountBadges` in `engine/overworld/variables.asm:80`, which is `CountSetBits` over **two** bytes (`wBadges`, b = 2), i.e. Johto **and** Kanto badges together | own all eight Johto badges. The script then sets `SCENE_VICTORYROADGATE_NOOP`, so the check runs at most once |
+| Physical block west to Route 28 | `maps/VictoryRoadGate.asm:118` object `VICTORYROADGATE_BLACK_BELT1` at (7,5), masked when `EVENT_OPENED_MT_SILVER` is set | row 5 is the only east-west corridor in the gate and he stands in it | out of scope here (Mt. Silver, later section) |
+| Physical block east to Route 22 | `maps/VictoryRoadGate.asm:119` object `VICTORYROADGATE_BLACK_BELT2` at (12,5), masked when `EVENT_FOUGHT_SNORLAX` is set | same corridor | out of scope here (Kanto, later section) |
+| Rival ambush before the exit | `maps/VictoryRoad.asm:255-256` coord events at (12,8) and (13,8), gated on `SCENE_VICTORYROAD_RIVAL_BATTLE` | those two tiles are the whole corridor to the exit at (13,5) | win the battle; the script then runs `setscene SCENE_VICTORYROAD_NOOP` |
+| TM26 Earthquake | geometry only, no flag: (3,28) is inside the y=26..30 pocket whose only entrance is the `COLL_PIT` at (0,11) | reach the top region first (so: beat the ladders, not the rival) | none |
+| Full Restore | geometry only: (18,29) is on a shelf whose only entrance is warp 7 (17,19) -> (17,33) | reach the top region | none |
+
+Field moves: **none required**. There is no `COLL_CUT_TREE`, no water, no
+strength boulder and no whirlpool anywhere in the decoded map, and the header
+palette is `PALETTE_NITE`, not `PALETTE_DARK`, so **Flash is not needed** either.
+The FAQ's "no puzzles to solve now" is accurate.
+
+## 4. Bot checklist
+
+Coordinates are map cells `(x, y)` on the named map. "step" means walk onto the
+tile; ladders and the pit fire on arrival (`Permissions.isImmediateWarp`
+equivalent: `COLL_LADDER` = `$72` and `COLL_PIT` = `$60` are warp collisions),
+while the entrance carpet at (9,67) fires on a DOWN press.
+
+1. `MAP_VICTORY_ROAD_GATE`: from the Route 26 door at (9,17)/(10,17) walk north along x=10. Precondition: 8 Johto badges. Step (10,11) -> `VictoryRoadGateBadgeCheckScript` fires. Postcondition: `wVictoryRoadGateSceneID` = `SCENE_VICTORYROADGATE_NOOP`. If badges < 8 the script pushes you one step DOWN and you cannot pass.
+2. `MAP_VICTORY_ROAD_GATE`: step (9,0) or (10,0) -> warp to `MAP_VICTORY_ROAD` (9,67).
+3. `MAP_VICTORY_ROAD` entrance region. Waypoints that were checked against the
+   collision map: (9,66) -> west along y=66 to (7,66) -> north x=7 through
+   y=65,64 to (7,63) -> (7,62) -> east along y=62 to (11,62)/(12,62) -> north
+   x=11/12 through y=61..55 -> (11,54) -> the long y=53/54 corridor (x=5..16).
+4. Max Revive and Full Heal: from the y=53/54 corridor go east to (15,54) ->
+   (15,55) -> (15,56) -> east along y=56 to (18,56) -> north along x=18 through
+   y=55,54,53,52 to (18,51) -> west along y=51 to (15,51) -> (15,50) -> (16,50)
+   -> (16,49) -> (16,48), press A facing LEFT
+   into (15,48) -> Full Heal (`EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_FULL_HEAL`). Then west along
+   y=50 to (12,50) -> (12,49) -> press A facing UP into (12,48) -> Max Revive
+   (`EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_MAX_REVIVE`).
+5. Optional hidden Full Heal: face the wall at (3,65) from (2,65), (4,65),
+   (3,64) or (3,66) and press A. Postcondition
+   `EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_HIDDEN_FULL_HEAL`.
+6. Back along the y=53/54 corridor to its west end, (3,53) -> (2,52) -> (2,51)
+   -> (2,50) -> (1,49); the ladder fires on arrival -> warp 2 -> (1,35).
+7. X Special. Verified chain from the ladder landing: (1,35) -> (1,36) -> (1,37)
+   -> (1,38) -> east along y=38 to (5,38) -> (5,37) -> (5,36) -> east along y=36
+   to (9,36)/(10,36) -> (9,37)/(10,37) -> (9,38)/(10,38) -> south through
+   y=39,40 (x=9..16 is open) -> (13,41) -> (13,42) -> west along y=42 to (7,42)
+   -> north along x=7 (the `HOP_LEFT` column is walkable) through y=41,40,39 to
+   (7,38). Press A -> X Special. Postcondition `EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_X_SPECIAL`.
+   Do **not** press LEFT while on that column (it triggers a two-tile jump into
+   a wall column).
+8. To the (13,31) ladder: back to (7,42) -> east along y=42 to (18,42) -> north
+   along x=18 through y=41,40,39,38 to (18,37) -> west along y=37 then y=36 to
+   (13,36) -> north (13,35), (13,34), (13,33), (13,32) -> step (13,31) -> warp 4
+   -> arrive (13,17). Note you cannot climb x=13 straight up from y=41: (13,38)
+   is `COLL_UP_WALL` and blocks the step up out of it, and the x=11 column walls
+   off the y=34..36 strip on its west side.
+9. Optional Full Restore detour. The verified chain from the ladder to (17,19) is:
+   (13,17) -> (13,16) -> east along y=16 to (16,16) -> (16,15) -> (16,14) ->
+   west along y=14 to (9,14)/(10,14) -> south x=9/10 through y=15,16,17 to
+   (9,18)/(10,18) -> west along y=18 to (5,18) -> (5,17) -> (5,16) -> west along
+   y=16 to (3,16) -> (3,17) -> (3,18) -> (3,19) -> (3,20) -> east along y=20 to
+   (8,20) -> **press RIGHT to hop the ledge**, landing (10,20) -> east/north to
+   (16,19) -> (17,19). On the cart that `HOP_RIGHT` is the only way into the
+   (17,19) pocket. Step (17,19) -> warp 7 -> arrive (17,33). Walk north along
+   x=17..19 to (18,29), press A -> Full Restore. Postcondition
+   `EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_FULL_RESTORE`. Return to y=34 (x=16..19) and press DOWN to
+   hop the ledge, landing on y=36 - which is already the y=36 corridor, so go
+   west to (13,36) and north to (13,31), warp 4, back to (13,17).
+10. From (13,17): (13,16) -> east along y=16 to (18,16) -> north along x=18
+    through (18,15), (18,14), (18,13) (the rival's masked object tile), (18,12)
+    to (18,11) -> west along y=11 to (13,11) -> north (13,10), (13,9) to (13,8).
+11. Step (12,8) or (13,8) -> rival ambush. Precondition `wVictoryRoadSceneID` = 0. Battle `RIVAL1` member 13/14/15 depending on the starter events. Postconditions: `EVENT_RIVAL_VICTORY_ROAD` set, `wVictoryRoadSceneID` = `SCENE_VICTORYROAD_NOOP`.
+12. TM26 detour. The x=6,7 wall pair on y=10 and the x=5..8 wall run on y=11 mean
+    you cannot walk straight west; the verified chain is (9,11) -> (9,10) ->
+    (8,10) -> (8,9) -> west along y=9 to (5,9) -> (5,10) -> west along y=10 to
+    (0,10) -> (0,11), the `COLL_PIT`, which fires on arrival -> land at (0,27).
+    Then (0,28) -> east along y=28 to (2,28), press A facing RIGHT into the ball
+    object at (3,28) -> TM26 Earthquake (`EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_TM_EARTHQUAKE`).
+    Optionally step to (2,29) and press A facing RIGHT into the wall at (3,29)
+    -> hidden Max Potion (`EVENT_VICTORY_ROAD_HIDDEN_MAX_POTION`).
+13. Leave the pocket: east along y=28 to (7,28) -> step onto (8,28), the
+    `HOP_RIGHT` tile -> press RIGHT to hop to (10,28) -> (10,29) -> east to
+    (12,29) -> (12,30) -> (12,31) -> step (13,31) -> warp 4 -> (13,17).
+    (Alternative, longer: stand on (2,30) or (3,30) and press DOWN, landing at
+    y=32, which drops you back in the (1,35) ladder pocket and forces a full
+    re-cross of the middle region via steps 7 and 8.)
+14. Repeat step 10 to return to the exit corridor. The coord events no longer fire.
+15. Walk (13,7) -> (13,6) -> step (13,5) (`COLL_CAVE`) -> warp 10 -> `MAP_ROUTE_23` (9,13). End of section.

+## 5. Port coverage
+
+| Beat | Port file | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| Map header, dimensions, warps, coord events, bg events, object events for any Gold map | `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua` (map event reader at lines 785-865, `extractMaps` from 866) | implemented - data driven off the ROM, so `VICTORY_ROAD` needs no hand port |
+| `OBJECTTYPE_ITEMBALL` item data extraction | `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua:2968` (`obj.itemball = readItemBall(...)`) | implemented (extraction only) |
+| **Picking up a Poke Ball object** (all five Victory Road items) | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:5257` `World:interact` | **missing** - the A-press path handles trainers, strength boulders, `scriptKey` NPCs, `BGEVENT_READ` signs, `BGEVENT_ITEM` hidden items and the tile-collision field moves. Nothing consumes `obj.itemball`, and an itemball object has no `scriptKey`, so the press falls through |
+| Hidden items (`BGEVENT_ITEM`, the two here) | `src/world/gen2/HiddenItems.lua`, used at `src/world/gen2/World.lua:5290` | implemented |
+| Ladder / cave / pit warps | `src/world/gen2/Permissions.lua:162` `isWarpCollision` (covers `$60` PIT and the `$7x` block) and `isImmediateWarp` | implemented - the (0,11) hole and all six ladders work |
+| Warp carpet needing a direction press (the (9,67) entrance) | `src/world/gen2/Permissions.lua:170` `CARPET_DIR` | implemented |
+| Walkability from `CollisionPermissionTable` | `src/world/gen2/Permissions.lua:11` (256-entry table), `src/world/gen2/Map.lua:59` | implemented |
+| **Ledge hops** (`COLL_HOP_LEFT/RIGHT/DOWN`, five of them in this map) | - | **missing** - no `$a0..$a7` handling anywhere under `src/world/gen2/`. The tiles are LAND in the port's permission table, so a bot can walk over them freely. Net effect: the one-way ledges become two-way, and the Full Restore shelf / TM pocket exits behave differently from the cart |
+| **Directional side walls** (`COLL_UP_WALL`, heavily used here) | `src/world/gen2/FieldMoves.lua:313` `BLOCKED_BY` | partial - the `$b0..$b7` table exists but is only consulted by `FieldMoves.directionBlocked` for surf/field-move refusals. There is no port equivalent of `GetMovementPermissions` (`home/map.asm:1868`), so `UP_WALL` does not restrict ordinary walking |
+| Coord events gated on the map scene | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:5007` `World:tryCoordScript`, scene storage at `World.lua:740` / `World:scene` at 1161 | implemented |
+| Scene scripts / `setscene` persistence across save | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:558-584`, `src/core/gen2/Save.lua` | implemented |

+| `VAR_BADGES` (the gate check) | `src/world/gen2/World.lua:1240` - counts `player.badges` + `player.kantoBadges`, matching `CountSetBits` over two bytes | implemented |
+| Object masking by event flag | `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua` object `eventFlag` field; `src/world/gen2/Npc.lua` | partial - the flag is extracted, but confirm the mask polarity (hidden when **set**) matches `CheckObjectFlag`; not verified in this pass |
+| Wild encounters for this map | `src/import/RomExtractorGen2.lua:3720` (`JohtoGrassWildMons` / `KantoGrassWildMons`), `src/battle/gen2/Encounter.lua` | implemented |
+| Battle music landmark split | `src/battle/gen2/BattleMusic.lua:45-56` explicitly names the Victory Road landmark boundary | implemented |
+| A driver that walks Victory Road | - | **missing** - no `tests/drivers/gold_*.lua` mentions Victory Road |

+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+- **Rival Magneton level.** The FAQ says "Level 34 Magneton". The asm has 35 in
+  RIVAL1 (13) and RIVAL1 (14) and 34 only in RIVAL1 (15), the Feraligatr set
+  loaded when the player picked Cyndaquil. The FAQ appears to have been written
+  from one playthrough.
+- **Rival party order.** The FAQ lists the starter evolution fourth. The asm
+  order is Sneasel, Golbat, Magneton, Haunter, Kadabra, starter (starter last).
+- **"You get: 2280G"** and the per-mon EXP figures were not verified; base money
+  for the `RIVAL1` class lives in the trainer class attribute table, which was
+  not opened for this pass.
+- **Wild list.** The FAQ lists only Golbat, Graveler, Rhyhorn and "Donphan
+  (Silver only)". The asm table also carries Onix (two slots, L34 and L36) and,
+  in Gold, Ursaring at L33 in the slot Silver gives to Donphan.
+- **Item list.** The FAQ's item list omits the hidden Max Potion at (3,29) and
+  does not distinguish the itemball Full Heal at (15,48) from the hidden Full
+  Heal at (3,65).
+- **"Head up the stairway"** - there is no `COLL_STAIRCASE` in the decoded
+  Victory Road map. What the FAQ calls stairways and cliffs are ordinary floor
+  plus the `COLL_UP_WALL` strips; the only vertical transitions are the six
+  ladders, the pit and the five ledges.
+- **"Head back up the ladder to get back to the third floor"** (after TM26).
+  There is no ladder inside the TM pocket. The two ways out are the `HOP_RIGHT`
+  at (8,28)/(8,29) into the x=10..13 corridor that reaches the (13,31) ladder,
+  and the `HOP_DOWN` at (2,30)/(3,30) into the (1,35) pocket. The checklist above
+  prefers the first; which one the FAQ author meant is not recoverable from the
+  text.
+- **X Special tile.** The Poke Ball at (7,38) sits on a `COLL_HOP_LEFT` tile with
+  `COLL_WALL` on both sides and above. Ledge tiles are `LAND_TILE` in
+  `CollisionPermissionTable`, so the column x=7, y=38..41 is walkable from
+  (7,42) upward and the ball is reachable; but this should be confirmed on
+  hardware or in an emulator, because it is the one placement in this map that
+  looks like a mistake rather than a design.
+- **The gate's black belts as physical blockers.** The claim that
+  `VICTORYROADGATE_BLACK_BELT1` at (7,5) and `BLACK_BELT2` at (12,5) block the
+  only east-west corridor is inferred from the decoded gate collision (row 5 is
+  the sole corridor and rows 4/6 are walls beside it) plus the fact that NPCs are
+  solid. It is not stated in any script, and it belongs to later sections
+  (Route 28 / Route 22) rather than this one.
+- **Object flag polarity in the port** was not tested; see the Port coverage row.

+
+**Scripts of interest**
+
+- `Route23FlypointCallback` (`50:5888`), registered as `callback MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP`.
+  Body is two opcodes: `setflag ENGINE_FLYPOINT_INDIGO_PLATEAU` / `endcallback`.
+  This is the whole of the walkthrough's "You'll now be able to fly to this
+  location directly", and it is also the gate on the Kanto half of the Fly map
+  (see section 5 - Blockers).
+- `IndigoPlateauSign` -> `jumptext IndigoPlateauSignText`.
+
+**Flags and events**
+
+| constant | defined in | read/written by | meaning for a bot |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `ENGINE_FLYPOINT_INDIGO_PLATEAU` | `constants/engine_flags.asm:78` | set by `Route23FlypointCallback` | after one step onto Route 23, Fly to Indigo Plateau is available; also unlocks the Kanto Fly map |
+
+**Items** - none.

+`data/wild/kanto_grass.asm`, `data/wild/johto_water.asm` or
+`data/wild/kanto_water.asm` (grepped; `kanto_grass.asm` jumps
+`ROUTE_22` -> `ROUTE_24`). The header's `FISHGROUP_SHORE` is the header default and
+there is no water to fish from.
+

+
+### MAP_INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_1F
+
+- Script: `maps/IndigoPlateauPokecenter1F.asm`
+- Blocks: `maps/IndigoPlateauPokecenter1F.blk`

+| `..._ABRA` | `SPRITE_JYNX` (`PAL_NPC_BROWN`) | 0 | 9 | `SPRITEMOVEDATA_POKEMON` | `OBJECTTYPE_SCRIPT` | `AbraScript` | `EVENT_TELEPORT_GUY` |
+
+Note the last row: the "Abra" the walkthrough names is declared with
+`SPRITE_JYNX` (`constants/sprite_constants.asm:122`; `data/sprites/sprite_mons.asm`
+maps that slot to `JYNX`). Its script is `AbraScript`, which does
+`cry ABRA`. Verbatim from the file, not a typo of mine.
+
+An object's event flag hides it when the flag is **set** (`Script_disappear`
+sets, `Script_appear` clears - `engine/overworld/scripting.asm:879-898`).
+`EVENT_INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_RIVAL` is set on New Game by
+`engine/events/std_scripts.asm:556` (the `EVENT_INITIALIZED_EVENTS` block), so
+the rival starts hidden. `EVENT_TELEPORT_GUY` is not in that block, so the old
+man and his Pokémon are visible from the first visit.
+
+**Scripts of interest**
+
+- `IndigoPlateauPokecenter1FPrepareElite4Callback` (`5a:48b6`), a
+  `callback MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP`. **This is the single most important script in
+  the section for a bot**: every time you set foot in the lobby it resets the
+  whole Elite Four run.
+
+  ```
+  setmapscene WILLS_ROOM,   SCENE_WILLSROOM_LOCK_DOOR
+  setmapscene KOGAS_ROOM,   SCENE_KOGASROOM_LOCK_DOOR
+  setmapscene BRUNOS_ROOM,  SCENE_BRUNOSROOM_LOCK_DOOR
+  setmapscene KARENS_ROOM,  SCENE_KARENSROOM_LOCK_DOOR
+  setmapscene LANCES_ROOM,  SCENE_LANCESROOM_LOCK_DOOR
+  setmapscene HALL_OF_FAME, SCENE_HALLOFFAME_ENTER

+  clearevent EVENT_BEAT_CHAMPION_LANCE
+  setevent   EVENT_LANCES_ROOM_OAK_AND_MARY   ; hide Oak + Mary again
+  endcallback
+  ```
+
+  Consequences: the five `EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_4_*` flags are **not** durable
+  progress markers - they only survive within one uninterrupted run. The durable
+  "I beat the League" flag is `EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_FOUR`, set in `HallOfFameEnterScript`.
+- `PlateauRivalBattle1` / `PlateauRivalBattle2` -> `PlateauRivalBattleCommon`.
+  Guards, in order:
+  1. `checkevent EVENT_BEAT_RIVAL_IN_MT_MOON` / `iffalse` -> done (so this only
+     ever fires post-game, after the Mt. Moon rematch),
+  2. `checkflag ENGINE_INDIGO_PLATEAU_RIVAL_FIGHT` / `iftrue` -> done (once a day),
+  3. `readvar VAR_WEEKDAY` with `ifequal SUNDAY / TUESDAY / THURSDAY / FRIDAY /
+     SATURDAY` -> done. **Only Monday and Wednesday.**
+
+  Then `moveobject`/`appear` the rival, `showemote EMOTE_SHOCK`,
+  `special FadeOutMusic`, a 5-step `applymovement`, `playmusic MUSIC_RIVAL_ENCOUNTER`,
+  `setevent EVENT_INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_RIVAL`, then a starter-dependent
+  `loadtrainer RIVAL2, RIVAL2_2_*` + `startbattle`. Afterwards
+  `PlateauRivalPostBattle` plays `MUSIC_RIVAL_AFTER`, walks him off with
+  `disappear`, and `setflag ENGINE_INDIGO_PLATEAU_RIVAL_FIGHT`.
+- `IndigoPlateauPokecenter1FNurseScript` -> `jumpstd PokecenterNurseScript` (free heal).
+- `IndigoPlateauPokecenter1FClerkScript` -> `pokemart MARTTYPE_STANDARD, MART_INDIGO_PLATEAU`.
+- `TeleportGuyScript` (`5a:49e5`): `yesorno`; on yes, `playsound SFX_WARP_TO`,
+  `special FadeOutToWhite`, `warp NEW_BARK_TOWN, 13, 6`. The walkthrough's "Abra
+  will teleport you back" lands you in **New Bark Town**, specifically, not
+  "back to Johto" generically.
+- `AbraScript`: text + `cry ABRA`, nothing else.
+
+**Flags and events**
+
+| constant | defined in | read/written by | meaning for a bot |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `EVENT_INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_RIVAL` | `constants/event_flags.asm:1309` | set by `std_scripts.asm:556` on New Game and by `PlateauRivalBattleCommon`; cleared by `appear` | hides the rival object |
+| `EVENT_TELEPORT_GUY` | `constants/event_flags.asm:1310` | set by `HallOfFameEnterScript` | after the Hall of Fame the old man **and** his Pokémon vanish; the ride home is a pre-champion service only |
+| `EVENT_BEAT_RIVAL_IN_MT_MOON` | `constants/event_flags.asm:456` | read by both `PlateauRivalBattle*` | precondition for the lobby ambush |
+| `ENGINE_INDIGO_PLATEAU_RIVAL_FIGHT` | `constants/engine_flags.asm:111` (in the `wDailyFlags2` block) | read/set by `PlateauRivalBattle*` | daily one-shot; cleared with the rest of the daily flags at midnight |
+| `SCENE_INDIGOPLATEAUPOKECENTER1F_RIVAL_BATTLE` | the map's own `def_scene_scripts` (value 0) | coord events | see the quirk note below |
+
+Scene quirk worth knowing: this map declares exactly one scene script, so
+`SCENE_INDIGOPLATEAUPOKECENTER1F_RIVAL_BATTLE == 0`, which is also the default
+value of `wMapScenes` for the map. `PlateauRivalPostBattle`'s
+`setscene SCENE_INDIGOPLATEAUPOKECENTER1F_RIVAL_BATTLE` therefore writes 0 over
+0 and the two coord events stay armed forever. The real one-shot guards are
+`ENGINE_INDIGO_PLATEAU_RIVAL_FIGHT` and the weekday check.
+
+**Items**
+
+| item | how obtained | source (label / bg_event / hidden) | one-time flag |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `ULTRA_BALL`, `MAX_REPEL`, `HYPER_POTION`, `MAX_POTION`, `FULL_RESTORE`, `REVIVE`, `FULL_HEAL` | bought | `MartIndigoPlateau` (`data/items/marts.asm:384`, symbol `05:645a`), opened by `IndigoPlateauPokecenter1FClerkScript` | n/a |
+
+This is where the walkthrough's "ten Hyper Potions, ten Revives, ten Full Heals"
+shopping list is actually satisfiable - the mart carries all three plus Full
+Restore.
+
+**Trainers**
+
+| const | class | id | party (`data/trainers/parties.asm` label) | script label | rematch/phone |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `RIVAL2` | `RIVAL2` (`$2a`) | `RIVAL2_2_CHIKORITA` / `RIVAL2_2_CYNDAQUIL` / `RIVAL2_2_TOTODILE` (chosen by which starter the player took: `checkevent EVENT_GOT_TOTODILE_FROM_ELM` -> Chikorita team, `EVENT_GOT_CHIKORITA_FROM_ELM` -> Cyndaquil team, else Totodile team) | `Rival2Group` entries 4/5/6 | `PlateauRivalBattleCommon` | daily, Mon/Wed only, post Mt. Moon |
+
+`Rival2Group` (4)-(6), all `TRAINERTYPE_MOVES`:
+`45 SNEASEL`, `48 CROBAT`, `45 MAGNETON`, `46 GENGAR`, `46 ALAKAZAM`, and then
+`50 MEGANIUM` / `50 TYPHLOSION` / `50 FERALIGATR` respectively. The walkthrough
+does not mention this fight at all - a bot that walks the lobby on a Monday
+will hit it whether or not it planned to.
+
+**Wild encounters** - none (indoor).

+| 3 | 5 | 2 | `KOGAS_ROOM` | 2 |
+
+**Coord events** - none. The door-lock cutscene is a **scene script**, not a

+fires on map load via `sdefer`.
+
+**BG events** - none.
+
+**Object events** (`def_object_events`)
+

+| `WILLSROOM_WILL` | `SPRITE_WILL` (`PAL_NPC_RED`) | 5 | 7 | `SPRITEMOVEDATA_STANDING_DOWN` | `OBJECTTYPE_SCRIPT` | `WillScript_Battle` | -1 |
+
+**Scripts of interest**
+
+- `WillsRoomDoorLocksBehindYouScript` (`5a:4d8c`), deferred by the scene script:
+  `applymovement PLAYER, WillsRoom_EnterMovement` (4 x `step UP`, so you enter at
+  `(5, 17)` and end at `(5, 13)`), `reanchormap $85`, `playsound SFX_STRENGTH`,
+  `earthquake 80`, `changeblock 4, 14, $2a` (wall), `refreshmap`,
+  `setscene SCENE_WILLSROOM_NOOP`, `setevent EVENT_WILLS_ROOM_ENTRANCE_CLOSED`.
+  `changeblock` operands are in the same tile space as warps but are halved
+  internally (`Script_changeblock` adds 4 then `GetBlockLocation` shifts right,
+  `home/map.asm:2099`), so `4, 14` is the block covering tiles `(4..5, 14..15)` -
+  the corridor square immediately below where the walk-in leaves you. That is
+  what makes the walkthrough's "You can't go back to the Pokémon Center to heal
+  between battles" literally true.
+- `WillsRoomDoorsCallback`, `callback MAPCALLBACK_TILES`: re-applies
+  `changeblock 4, 14, $2a` while `EVENT_WILLS_ROOM_ENTRANCE_CLOSED` is set and
+  `changeblock 4, 2, $16` (open door) while `EVENT_WILLS_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN` is set,
+  so the room's geometry survives a battle reload.
+- `WillScript_Battle` (`5a:4da4`): `faceplayer`, `opentext`,

+  `changeblock 4, 2, $16` (open the north door), `refreshmap`,
+  `setevent EVENT_WILLS_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN`.
+
+  Note there is **no `winlosstext` loss branch** (the second operand is `0`) and
+  no `BATTLETYPE_CANLOSE`: losing to any Elite Four member is an ordinary
+  blackout, which is why the FAQ says "If you lose, you have to start all over".

+| Each room's north door | `WillScript_Battle` / `KogaScript_Battle` / `BrunoScript_Battle` / `KarenScript_Battle` - `changeblock 4, 2, $16` + `setevent EVENT_*_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN`, replayed by the map's `MAPCALLBACK_TILES` | beat that member | door block becomes `$16` (open) and warps at `(4, 2)`/`(5, 2)` become reachable |
+| Lance's north door | `maps/LancesRoom.asm:LancesRoomLanceScript` - `changeblock 4, 0, $0b` | beat Lance | opened, but the script warps you through immediately anyway |
+| Approaching Lance at all | `def_coord_events` at `(4, 5)` / `(5, 5)` gated on `SCENE_LANCESROOM_APPROACH_LANCE` | that scene is only set at the end of `LancesRoomDoorLocksBehindYouScript` | walking in through warp 1/2 always sets it; a bot teleported straight to y < 5 would skip the fight |
+| Lobby rival ambush | `maps/IndigoPlateauPokecenter1F.asm:PlateauRivalBattle1/2` | `EVENT_BEAT_RIVAL_IN_MT_MOON` set, `ENGINE_INDIGO_PLATEAU_RIVAL_FIGHT` clear, `VAR_WEEKDAY` in {MONDAY, WEDNESDAY} | not a progress gate - a hazard. Avoid tiles `(16, 4)` / `(17, 4)` if the run cannot afford a level-45-50 six-mon fight |
+| No HM field move is required anywhere in this section | grep: no `Route23`/Elite Four map references any `engine/overworld/` field-move script; the walkthrough's "you do NOT need to have every HM" is correct | - | - |

+## 4. Bot checklist
+
+Coordinates are the raw asm map coordinates (tile grid, origin top-left, before
+the +4 border offset the object/warp readers apply).
+
+| # | Map | Target | Intent | Precondition | Postcondition |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|

+| 2 | `ROUTE_23` | any tile (map load) | step | - | `ENGINE_FLYPOINT_INDIGO_PLATEAU` set |
+| 3 | `ROUTE_23` | `(9, 5)` or `(10, 5)` | walk onto warp | - | in `INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_1F` at `(5, 13)`/`(6, 13)`; the `MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP` resets all Elite Four scenes/flags |
+| 4 | `INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_1F` | `INDIGOPLATEAUPOKECENTER1F_NURSE` at `(3, 7)` | talk (A, facing up from `(3, 8)`) | - | party healed (`jumpstd PokecenterNurseScript`) |
+| 5 | `INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_1F` | `INDIGOPLATEAUPOKECENTER1F_CLERK` at `(11, 7)` | talk, buy | money | stock Hyper Potion / Full Heal / Revive / Full Restore from `MartIndigoPlateau` |
+| 6 | `INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_1F` | avoid `(16, 4)` and `(17, 4)` | pathing constraint | only matters if `EVENT_BEAT_RIVAL_IN_MT_MOON` is set and today is Mon/Wed | skipping avoids `RIVAL2_2_*` |
+| 7 | `INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_1F` | warp at `(14, 3)` | walk onto warp | - | in `WILLS_ROOM` at `(5, 17)`; scene 0 fires `WillsRoomDoorLocksBehindYouScript` |
+| 8 | `WILLS_ROOM` | (automatic) | wait out `applymovement` | - | player at `(5, 13)`, `EVENT_WILLS_ROOM_ENTRANCE_CLOSED` set, scene = 1 |
+| 9 | `WILLS_ROOM` | `WILLSROOM_WILL` at `(5, 7)` | walk to `(5, 8)`, face up, A | - | win -> `EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_4_WILL`, `EVENT_WILLS_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN` |
+| 10 | `WILLS_ROOM` | `(4, 2)` or `(5, 2)` | walk onto warp | `EVENT_WILLS_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN` | in `KOGAS_ROOM` at `(4, 17)`/`(5, 17)` |
+| 11 | `KOGAS_ROOM` | `KOGASROOM_KOGA` at `(5, 7)` | walk to `(5, 8)`, face up, A | door-lock cutscene done (player at `(4|5, 13)`) | `EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_4_KOGA`, `EVENT_KOGAS_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN` |
+| 12 | `KOGAS_ROOM` | `(4, 2)` / `(5, 2)` | walk onto warp | exit open | in `BRUNOS_ROOM` at `(4, 17)`/`(5, 17)` |
+| 13 | `BRUNOS_ROOM` | `BRUNOSROOM_BRUNO` at `(5, 7)` | talk | cutscene done | `EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_4_BRUNO`, `EVENT_BRUNOS_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN` |
+| 14 | `BRUNOS_ROOM` | `(4, 2)` / `(5, 2)` | walk onto warp | exit open | in `KARENS_ROOM` at `(4, 17)`/`(5, 17)` |
+| 15 | `KARENS_ROOM` | `KARENSROOM_KAREN` at `(5, 7)` | talk | cutscene done | `EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_4_KAREN`, `EVENT_KARENS_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN` |
+| 16 | `KARENS_ROOM` | `(4, 2)` / `(5, 2)` | walk onto warp | exit open | in `LANCES_ROOM` at `(4, 23)`/`(5, 23)` |
+| 17 | `LANCES_ROOM` | (automatic) | wait out `applymovement` | - | player at `(4|5, 19)`, `EVENT_LANCES_ROOM_ENTRANCE_CLOSED` set, scene = `SCENE_LANCESROOM_APPROACH_LANCE` |
+| 18 | `LANCES_ROOM` | walk to `(4, 5)` (or `(5, 5)`) | walk onto coord event | scene = 1 | `Script_ApproachLanceFromLeft/Right` -> Champion battle vs `CHAMPION`/`LANCE` |
+| 19 | `LANCES_ROOM` | (automatic) | hold A through the Mary / Oak cutscene | won | `EVENT_BEAT_CHAMPION_LANCE`, then `warp HALL_OF_FAME, 4, 13` |
+| 20 | `HALL_OF_FAME` | (automatic) | hold A through Lance's speech | scene = `SCENE_HALLOFFAME_ENTER` | `EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_FOUR`, `EVENT_TELEPORT_GUY`, S.S. Ticket call queued if needed, `halloffame` runs |
+| 21 | (screens) | Hall of Fame roster -> credits -> "The End" | wait; B skips **only** if `STATUSFLAGS_HALL_OF_FAME_F` was already set before this induction | - | back to title; save has been written by `SaveGameData` inside the ceremony |
+| 22 | (title) | CONTINUE | select | `wSpawnAfterChampion == SPAWN_LANCE` | game resumes at `SPAWN_NEW_BARK`, not at Indigo Plateau |
+
+Bot notes:
+
+- Do **not** re-enter `INDIGO_PLATEAU_POKECENTER_1F` mid-run to heal. You cannot
+  (the doors are sealed), and if some other path got you there, its
+  `MAPCALLBACK_NEWMAP` wipes `EVENT_BEAT_ELITE_4_*` and re-arms all five
+  door-lock scenes, restarting the gauntlet from Will.
+- Every fight uses `winlosstext <win>, 0` - no loss branch, no
+  `BATTLETYPE_CANLOSE` - so a loss is a full blackout to the last Pokémon Center.
+- After each `startbattle` the scripts run `reloadmapafterbattle`, which re-runs
+  the map's `MAPCALLBACK_TILES` and therefore restores both the sealed south door
+  and (once its flag is set) the opened north door.

+| `earthquake 80` shake | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua:1044` -> `earthquakeFn`, `World:earthquake` (`src/world/gen2/World.lua:1537`) | implemented |

+| `specialphonecall SPECIALCALL_SSTICKET` from the induction | `src/script/gen2/Vm.lua` (`specialphonecall`), `src/core/gen2/Phone.lua:394` (`SPECIALCALL_SSTICKET`, id 5) | implemented |

+
+---
+
+## 6. Unresolved / verify by hand
+
+1. **"Route 32 is very short, and you'll immediately be at the Pokémon League
+   building."** The map between Victory Road and the Plateau is `MAP_ROUTE_23`
+   (`constants/map_constants.asm:322`), not Route 32 (which is south of Violet
+   City). Walkthrough typo.
+2. **The walkthrough is describing HeartGold/SoulSilver parties, not Gold.** Four
+   concrete divergences, all verified against `data/trainers/parties.asm`:
+   - Will's send-out order is Xatu, Jynx, **Exeggutor, Slowbro**, Xatu; the FAQ
+     lists Slowbro third and Exeggutor fifth.
+   - Koga's order is Ariados, **Venomoth, Forretress**, Muk, Crobat; the FAQ
+     swaps 2 and 3.
+   - Bruno's order is Hitmontop, **Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan**, Onix, Machamp; the
+     FAQ swaps 2 and 3.
+   - Karen and Lance match in order and level.
+3. **Prize money.** The FAQ's 4200 / 4400 / 4600 / 4700 / 5000 G are 100 x the
+   last mon's level (HGSS). GS pays `base reward x level`
+   (`ComputeTrainerReward`, `engine/battle/read_trainer_party.asm:300`) with a
+   base reward of 25 for every one of these classes
+   (`data/trainers/attributes.asm`), i.e. **1050 / 1100 / 1150 / 1175 / 1250 G**.
+   The EXP figures quoted per Pokémon were not checked against
+   `data/pokemon/base_stats/` and should be treated as HGSS numbers too.
+4. **Held items and AI items.** "Koga has three Full Restores", "Karen has one
+   Full Restore", "Lance has three Full Restores", "Houndoom holding a Sitrus
+   Berry", "One of the Dragonites may be holding a Sitrus Berry". In GS these
+   parties are `TRAINERTYPE_MOVES`, which carries **no held item field at all**,
+   and the AI's item pool is the two-byte class row: Will `MAX_POTION, NO_ITEM`;
+   Bruno `MAX_POTION, NO_ITEM`; Karen `FULL_HEAL, MAX_POTION` (no Full Restore);
+   Koga `FULL_HEAL, FULL_RESTORE`; Champion `FULL_HEAL, FULL_RESTORE`. Sitrus
+   Berry does not exist in Gen 2.
+5. **Move names.** "Dragon Rush" (Lance's Dragonites) is a Gen 4 move; the GS
+   Dragonites run Thunder Wave / Twister / Thunder or Blizzard / Hyper Beam, and
+   the level-50 one runs Fire Blast / Safeguard / Outrage / Hyper Beam. Lugia's
+   "Aero Blast" and Donphan/Sudowoodo suggestions in the sample lineup are fine
+   as species, but none of that is asm-checkable.
+6. **"Routes 46 and 47 aren't bad, either."** `ROUTE_47` does not exist in
+   pokegold (`constants/map_constants.asm` has `ROUTE_45` and `ROUTE_46` and then
+   moves on). Route 47/48 are HGSS additions.
+7. **"You can go back to the Move Deleter in Blackthorn City."** There is a
+   `maps/MoveDeletersHouse.asm` reached from `maps/BlackthornCity.asm`; I did not
+   read its script, so the claim is plausible but unverified here.
+8. **"If you trade a Red Scale to Mr. Pokémon, he will give you EXP Share."**
+   `maps/MrPokemonsHouse.asm` does `checkitem RED_SCALE` (line 53),
+   `verbosegiveitem EXP_SHARE` (line 72), `takeitem RED_SCALE` (line 74), so the
+   claim holds; the surrounding flag guards were not read (out of scope).
+9. **The "Abra" sprite.** `maps/IndigoPlateauPokecenter1F.asm:324` declares
+   `SPRITE_JYNX` for the object whose script is `AbraScript` and whose cry is
+   `cry ABRA`. There is no `SPRITE_ABRA` in `constants/sprite_constants.asm`.
+   Whether this renders as a Jynx on hardware, or whether some `variablesprite`
+   elsewhere rewrites it, was not chased down - no `variablesprite` targeting
+   `SPRITE_JYNX` appears in `engine/events/std_scripts.asm`'s init block.
+10. **`EVENT_LANCES_ROOM_EXIT_OPEN` is never set.** `LancesRoomDoorsCallback`
+    reads it, the lobby callback clears it, but no script in the tree sets it
+    (grepped `maps/`). The champion's north door is opened by a bare
+    `changeblock 4, 0, $0b`, which does not survive a map reload. Harmless in
+    practice because the script warps you out immediately, but a bot that
+    somehow re-enters Lance's room post-battle will find the door shut again.
+11. **`setevent EVENT_LANCES_ROOM_ENTRANCE_CLOSED` appears twice**: once in
+    `LancesRoomDoorLocksBehindYouScript` (correct) and again immediately after
+    the champion's after-battle text in `LancesRoomLanceScript`. The second one
+    looks like it was meant to be the `EXIT_OPEN` set in item 10; recorded as
+    observed, not corrected.
+12. **The lobby's redundant `setscene`.** `PlateauRivalPostBattle` sets the scene
+    to `SCENE_INDIGOPLATEAUPOKECENTER1F_RIVAL_BATTLE`, which is 0, which is the
+    map's only scene and its default. Whether this was intended to disarm the
+    coord events (it does not) is a judgement call; the effective guards are the
+    engine flag and the weekday check.
+13. **"Fully heal your Pokémon and save after every trainer battle."** There is
+    no heal source inside the sealed rooms - no nurse object, no
+    `special HealParty` until `HallOfFameEnterScript`. The advice is about bag
+    items, and the asm agrees that nothing else is available.
