todo list

remaining gen 5 abilities:

• regenerator f0595bb
• imposter f0595bb
• infiltrator 555ae59
• magic bounce e1cfe68
• sand force 555ae59
• cursed body 03a7696
• illusion data update on the hp bars (switchindataupdate? setstatusicon BATTLER_xFF, 0x0?, give it its own battle script + message), ensure it also restores the name properly consistently ceb02c3 8574702
• sheer force skips a few item effects, particularly life orb 958cb6e

fix existing forms/implement gen 5 forms that now pull their form data (especially graphics data) from a personal narc entry:

• castform 1d17f62
• cherrim d3b8f3a
• shellos d3b8f3a
• gastrodon d3b8f3a
• darmanitan 9c27dfc
• meloetta d3dfe6d
• genesect 5d4bf87 eaf3fb1
• tornadus 88634fb
• thundurus 88634fb
• landorus 88634fb
• kyurem 2edb469
• keldeo
• deerling 14a47d6 b133a93 117eec2
• sawsbuck 14a47d6 b133a93 117eec2

misc:

• fill out ability descriptions 54e5b86
• hidden abilities, get these working and assignable to pokemon. can we just expand the personal structure and highjack access method? reassigning abilities to mons that change form in battle--how do we handle this? i think we need to have a hidden ability bit in the mon structure, sadly 347dfa6
• primal reversion 61c6943
• have dragon ascent trigger rayquaza mega evolving too 7682e8b
• improve build system, utilize hella makefile features for the narc building that will be skipped automatically if they don't need to be built again. cfru building is speedy (especially on rebuild), users with crappy laptops having to wait 10+ mins to use this would be understandably frustrating as our build times are already frustrating fcaa497 f2eccc0 0f8885f fa9a62c
• sanitize the repo, get the source outta here. at least function names (it's fine by now tbh)
• confirm with adastra and maybe a few other prominent members that they don't mind the barrage that will come with a public release. this may just affect how we market the repo (reddit post? twitter thread?) instead of a release in and of itself
• make sure mega animation either always plays or the sprite is updated in the battle script d08b158
• 60 fps battles config option (config from config.h preferable) 8379db3
• when done with testing (aka ready to start new save), expand dex save structure further to catch language byte overflow. this makes the dex structure 0x4C0 so that the language bytes don't overflow into the daycare save area and create completely gibberish mons 6ec06eb
• get rid of hgss-monexpansion artefacts, mainly in rawdata f488ba6
• per brioche: new exp system (2-byte base exp, maybe even level scaling?) 6bd1086
• icon gender differences (or do we just make them forms? meowstic has completely new everything and may be better as a form) fbbc7da
• handle form egg moves 7860a60
• handle form learnsets in the wild c06a3a0
• handle form evolutions+evolving into forms baaa3e6
• selectively make mega button available/at all visible 5264936 323e302

wiki:

• document trainer data structure and how to modify in the wiki
• document dex flag save structure changes in the wiki and how that was changed to support more dex flags for existing pokemon
• document changing every aspect currently editable of pokemon
• hidden ability wiki documentation
• document move data
• document battle script systems
• document item data

stretch:

• landing pad system where we can load in new functions from a narc subfile and have it load and jump to said area to not use too much space with the synthetic overlay
• incorporate sdattool to build the sdat including the cries
• ai improvement/documentation
• dex forms
• item bag expansion
• catch experience
• build footprints from images
• add various configs for building certain features
  • mon expansion config (!) b51f8c4

  • new exp system 26d5ce5

  • 60 fps 8379db3
