A slapdash of various little bits and pieces.
- Lake of Rage has a small culture entry at the top to illustrate what we're setting out to do. I mentioned the shell middens and canonised it alongside GSC.
- Move constants now have their 16-bit IDs set up
- Palfixed Feradactyl and Pupperon, fixed former's credit with confirmation from pokeoctober
- Wiped out the must be 8-bit errors on various Pokemon's `base_stats.asm` files.
- Fixed some aspects of Strong Arm and Water Sport calling garbage data; this was due to them using 8-bit comparison systems where there needed to be 16-bits. This fixes a good bit of their HM usage. Battle bugs need resolving (presumably due to a lack of gfx?)
- Fixed AI scoring with Water Sport (hopefully)
- Updated the readme with some of our progress over the past 5 months.
This makes the Ballsmith a general "profession" in the Pokemon world, something not elaborated on outside of SW99. I made it so Chad mentions it too, instead of "BALL creator", which makes him out to be something different.
Celadon University can elaborate on this too.
it's currently missing the custom palette but if I did I'd need to fuck with the code for it anyway when I add it properly when this stuff works so I dont think that's a big deal
* There's a Coral in my Sepia!
Quick, get it out!
Anyways, here is the new Sepia theme, along with the less new Coral theme, the latter just sat on my drive for a few months. Oh well, it do be like that sometimes :^)
* Music to my cities!
(I hope I did this right)
This adds Rock Climb functionality to Strong Arm and Dive functionality to Water Sport, as discussed in the server. HMs have been added, but we need 16bit Items to add Wind Ride, and I haven't finished their functionality.
The Rock Climb tile is a bit terrible, it's not easy to notice. Maybe change so that it works well with yellow or another colour?
This does not build due to issues with effect_commands.asm, but since Zeta is meant to be working on the mapping and Water Sport anyway, it seems to be up his alley.
I ported over much of the underwater assets Rangi was using as they looked very pretty. I imagine it'll be fun to utilise going forward. May as well, right?
I shall now lay down in a dark room.

CHANGES ARE COMMENTED IN WRAM.ASM, IF ANYTHING BREAKS, CHECK THERE.
Not thoroughly tested but I've yeeted some unused shit in WRAM to be able to fit Misc WRAM 1 back in the right bank.
Side note but according to pret if a ds has a blank space above and below it then it should be unused? May be wise to double check this
Had to split bank 2 because I ran out of unreferenced code to comment out when adding Aventurine
Fuchsia was pissing me off so I applied the changes from KEP when adding the safari zone graphics, though it's not currently super close to what it was like in LGPE
Aventurine is very early stages but it's in there :V
actual palettes are somewhat unfinished but the general idea is being applied now.
Untouched palettes (aside from whatever color was used for the water) are marked with a # next to them, though the palettes are all tentative.
This adds Ajawalcan's new name, using Mayan grammar and vocabulary resources to produce something truly befitting of the Kukulcan Pokemon. Before, we conflated Aztec and Mayan theology and have now chosen to squarely focus on the Mayan side of things, with Ruddy Ruins scheduled to be based on Chichen Itza.

Savoy City is now full of savvy younglings ready to bombard people with old slang. I wanted it to be a capitalistic hellscape where all the young ones trying to keep up with the trends. A few older people, as well as those entering, do not appreciate the babel.
