The Pokémon will animate at a certain rate (perhaps depending on how much HP it has). Every time the Pokémon animates, the memory address representing its tile number will increase by 0x40 with respect to exceeding 0xFF will loop the value back to 0x00; so |
The Pokémon will animate at a certain rate (perhaps depending on how much HP it has). Every time the Pokémon animates, the memory address representing its tile number will increase by 0x40 with respect to exceeding 0xFF will loop the value back to 0x00; so three different corruptions of the original are possible (+0x40, +0x80 or +0xC0) modulo 256 depending on when the player chose to exit the selected Pokémon. |
