Enable Route 35, Route 36, Route 37, the National Park and its gates,
Ecruteak City and its buildings, the Tin Tower entrance, the Wise Trio's
room and both floors of the Burned Tower. The story runs from Floria,
the SquirtBottle and Sudowoodo through the Kimono Girls' HM03 Surf, the
rival in the Burned Tower and the beasts' release to Ecruteak Gym,
Morty, the FOGBADGE and TM30.
Port roaming Pokémon (InitRoamMons, UpdateRoamMons, JumpRoamMons,
CheckEncounterRoamMon) with their state in the save; only Continue moves
them on restore, so a failed import's rollback keeps them in place.
Port the Bug-Catching Contest: registration on contest days, Park Balls,
contestants, the timer, QUIT, the catch-and-swap prompt, judging from
the ROM's contestant table, prizes and the saved contest state.
Port the Game Corner's SlotMachine and CardFlip on a new realtime tile
screen that advances two frames per tick with buffered buttons: reel
strips and scrolling, bias tables, the seven streak, Golem and Chansey,
payouts, the Card Flip board, cursor and navigation. Their tilemaps are
checked against the ROM's own data.
Also port getnum, a plain warp that continues its script on the new map,
and PokemonNames' EGG entry. A trainer whose script is ObjectEvent (the
Burned Tower rival) is no longer sighted once its own flag is set, as
the original's read of bit 1 of wNumKeyItems gives with the usual key
items.
The playthrough walks through the National Park and continues to Morty;
its driver chooses moves by type matchup, buys at Marts and uses Super
Potions and Awakenings in trainer battles. New tests cover roaming, the
contest, the Game Corner and Ecruteak's side content.

Enable Route 32 and its Pokémon Center, the Ruins of Alph with the four
chambers, item and word rooms, inner chamber and research center, Union
Cave, Route 33, Azalea Town with Kurt's house, the kiln and Bugsy's gym,
the Slowpoke Well, Ilex Forest and Route 34.
Port what their scripts need: saved WRAM bytes by label (readmem,
writemem, loadmem: wFarfetchdPosition, wKurtApricornQuantity),
VAR_UNOWNCOUNT and VAR_KURT_APRICORNS, SelectApricornForKurt and
verbosegiveitemvar, Unown letters (GetUnownLetter, per-letter pictures,
CheckUnownLetter's redraw, UpdateUnownDex, wFirstUnownSeen), the chamber
puzzles (_UnownPuzzle), DisplayUnownWords, HoOhChamber and
OmanyteChamber.
Minigames and specials that draw a whole screen in tiles now share a
tile screen effect with ROM graphics, palettes and sprites, answered
with buttons; the standard font and textbox frame load for them.
The playthrough continues through Kurt's Slowpoke Well, Bugsy, the rival
and the Farfetch'd to the Route 34 gate; its helpers move to
tests/playthrough-driver.ts. New tests solve the Kabuto puzzle through
the world, catch Unown and make Kurt's balls.

The player's name in the start menu opens TrainerCard: page 1 with the
name, ID, money, Pokédex count and play time, page 2 with the Johto
leaders and the badges owned, turned and closed with the original
buttons. The card picture, leader faces and animated badges come from the
ROM with _CGB_TrainerCard's palettes. GameTimer now counts the play time
from the end of the introduction, capped at 999:59:59, and saves keep it.

A new game now runs NewGame's InitGender and OakSpeech natively before
the bedroom: Boy or Girl, InitClock's hour and minute steppers with
their YES/NO confirmations, Oak's speech with Wooper, and NamePlayer's
preset names or naming field (a blank name takes CHRIS or KRIS). Texts,
menus and time strings come from a new INTRO profile table verified by
check:reference; Oak's and the player's pictures decode from
TrainerPicPointers, ChrisPic/KrisPic and TrainerPalettes.
The chosen time is kept as a minute offset from the device clock, which
time of day, the weekday, NPC hours and the daily reset now read. The
intro runs only when nothing is saved; a save made during it starts it
again. Saves gain intro and clock.minuteOffset, migrated by absence. The
shell's name and character fields are gone. Intentional change: the
steppers start at the device time rather than 10:00.

Port forced movement (turn delays, bumps, ice, currents, pits), dynamic
return warps, elevators, Surf, Cut, Strength and cycling rules, working
map blocks with changeblock/changemapblocks, and the remaining NPC
movement types and movement commands.
Add tileset animation from the ROM's command tables, grass sprite
priority and special map palettes; room decorations with ownership, the
bedroom PC and save migration; and Key Items access to the Bicycle.
Fourteen original-engine traces compare positions, facing, actors, event
flags and scripted poses. Tile animation matches original VRAM for four
tilesets, and LoadMapPals matches 192 palette cases. skyfall_top now
keeps the $60 sprite offset its step function leaves behind.

- Random walks and spins from SpriteMovementData, with random sleeps.
- CanObjectMoveInDirection: side walls, land, objects' current and
previous tiles, the radius (stored plus one) and the screen edge.
- Objects freeze while text is open and during applymovement, and
return home when both they and their home leave the object window.
- Wandering positions are not saved; test helpers replan around NPCs.
