Stadium 2 memory map

[Felk]

The goal is to be able to play automated stadium 2 matches, and that without any visuals based automation like what was used before. The following things need to be mapped.

• [X] pre-battle pokemon data suitable for pokemon injection

  • 0x165CB8 (88 bytes total)
    {
    u8 species
    u8 item
    u8[4] moves 1-4
    u16 null?
    u32 exp (?)
    u16[5] stat exp (?) (hp, atk, def, speed, special)
    u4[4] DVs (atk, def, speed, special)
    
    u8[4] PP move 1-4
    u8 happiness
    u8 level
    u8[8] null?
    
    u16 HP
    u16 max HP
    u16 atk
    u16 def
    u16 speed
    u16 sp atk
    u16 sp def
    u8[10] nickname, last must be null apparently?
    u8[26] null?
    }[6]

• [X] in-battle pokemon data (read only) for overlay extraction
  • 0x0D1DC0
• [X] turn announcer on/off
  • 0x091B6C
• [X] disable music (we used to use a custom rom)
  • using the midi channels: 0xEB11C + 0x100 offset per music channel's pitch, set to 0 to mute
• [ ] move/switch prompt detection
• [ ] move/switch injection
• [ ] win detection
  • might be possible by obersving each pokemon's HP. I don't know if there will be special cases where that's not sufficient
• [ ] RNG seed, for re-seeding to avoid RNG patterns
• [ ] (nice to have) modify animation speed
• [ ] (nice to have) adjust FOV

I don't want my head on this. Kappa
