 * Introduction

 This article contains the results of my investigations with

 Pok\eacute{}mon Yellow as I searched for interesting

 data in the ROM. By using the Clojure language interface

 written by Robert[fn::This Clojure interface will be published to aurellem.org soon.], I

 was able to interact with the game in real-time, sending commands and

 gathering data. The result is a manifestly accurate map of

 Pok\eacute{}mon Yellow; every result 

 comes with runnable code that /works/. You can see the code and the output of

 every function and confirm for yourself that they are all correct. I

 hope you like the result!

 

 To orient yourself, you can look for a specific topic in the table of contents

 above, or browse the [[#sec-9-1][map of the ROM]], below.

 ** COMMENT Getting linguistic data: names, words, etc.

 

 Some of the simplest data 

 

 

 One of the simplest data structures in the Pok\eacute{} ROM is an

 unbroken list of strings that either (a) all have a specific length,

 or (b) are all separated by the same character.

 

 Because lots of good data has this format, we'll start by writing a

 template function to extract it:

 

 #+name: hxc-thunks

 #+begin_src clojure :results silent

 (defn hxc-thunk

   "Creates a thunk (nullary fn) that grabs data in a certain region of rom and

 splits it into a collection by 0x50. If rom is not supplied, uses the

   original rom data."

   [start length]

   (fn self

     ([rom]

        (take-nth 2

                  (partition-by #(= % 0x50)

                                (take length

                                      (drop start rom)))))

     ([]

       (self com.aurellem.gb.gb-driver/original-rom))))

 

 (def hxc-thunk-words

   "Same as hxc-thunk, except it interprets the rom data as characters,

   returning a collection of strings."

   (comp

    (partial comp (partial map character-codes->str))

    hxc-thunk))

 * Pok\eacute{}mon I

 ** Names of each species

 The names of the Pok\eacute{}mon species are stored in

 ROM@E8000. This name list is interesting, for a number of reasons:

 - The names are stored in [[ ][internal order]] rather than in the familiar

   Pok\eacute{}dex order. This seemingly random order probably represents the order in which the authors created or

   programmed in the Pok\eacute{}mon; it's used throughout the game.

 - There is enough space allocated for 190 Pok\eacute{}mon. As I

   understand it, there were originally going to be 190 Pok\eacute{}mon

   in Generation I, but the creators decided to defer some to

   Generation II. This explains why many Gen I and Gen II Pok\eacute{}mon

   have the same aesthetic feel.

 - The list is pockmarked with random gaps, due to the strange internal

   ordering

   and the 39 unused spaces [fn::190 allocated spaces minus 151 true Pok\eacute{}mon]. These missing spaces are filled with the

   placeholder name  =MISSINGNO.= (\ldquo{}Missing number\rdquo{}).

 

 Each name is exactly ten letters long; whenever a name would be too short, the extra

 space is padded with the character 0x50. 

 

 *** See the data

 

 Here you can see the raw data in three stages: in the first stage, we

 just grab the first few bytes starting from position 0xE8000. In the

 second stage, we partition the bytes into ten-letter chunks to show you

 where the names begin and end. In the final stage, we convert each

 byte into the letter it represents using the =character-codes->str=

 function. (0x50 is rendered as the symbol \ldquo{} =#= \rdquo{} for

 ease of reading).

 ** Trainer Pok\eacute{}mon

 # http://hax.iimarck.us/topic/103/

 There are two formats for specifying lists of NPC PPok\eacute{}mon:

 - If all the Pok\eacute{}mon will have the same level, the format is

   - Level (used for all the Pok\eacute{}mon)

   - Any number of Pok\eacute{}mon internal ids.

   - 0x00, to indicate end-of-list.

 - Otherwise, all the Pok\eacute{}mon will have their level

   specified. The format is

   - 0xFF, to indicate that we will be specifying the levels individually[fn::Because 0xFF is a

     forbidden level within the usual gameplay discipline, the game

     makers could safely use 0xFF as a mode indicator.].

   - Any number of alternating Level/Pokemon pairs

   - 0x00, to indicate end-of-list.

 ** Basic effects of moves

 

 *** Table of basic effects

 

 The possible effects of moves in Pok\eacute{}mon \mdash{} for example, dealing

 damage, leeching health, or potentially poisoning the opponent

 \mdash{} are stored in a table. Each move has exactly one effect, and

 different moves might have the same effect.

 

 For example, Leech Life, Mega Drain, and Absorb all have effect ID #3, which is \ldquo{}Leech half of the inflicted damage.\rdquo{}

 

 All the legitimate move effects are listed in the table

 below. Here are some notes for reading it:

 

 - Whenever an effect has a chance of doing something (like a chance of

   poisoning the opponent), I list the chance as a hexadecimal amount

   out of 256; this is to avoid rounding errors. To convert the hex amount into a percentage, divide by 256.

 - For some effects, the description is too cumbersome to

   write. Instead, I just write a move name

   in parentheses, like: (leech seed). That move gives a characteristic example

   of the effect.

 - I use the abbreviations =atk=, =def=, =spd=, =spc=, =acr=, =evd= for

   attack, defense, speed, special, accuracy, and evasiveness. 

 .
