Enable Route 38 and its Ecruteak gate, Route 39 with the MooMoo farm,
Olivine City and its buildings, the Lighthouse's six floors, Routes 40
and 41, and Cianwood City with its gym, pharmacy, Photo Studio, Mania's
house, the Poke Seer and the Lugia speech house. Olivine's port, the
Battle Tower gate and Whirl Islands stay closed. The story runs from the
rival in Olivine through Jasmine and Amphy, Suicune and Eusine, the
SecretPotion, Chuck's boulders, the STORMBADGE, TM01 and HM02, back to
Amphy's cure, Jasmine, the MINERALBADGE and TM23.
Port GiveShuckle and ReturnShuckie with every return code and Mania's
wrong last-Pokemon speech, PokeSeer with its high-byte-only OT check and
reused caught level, PhotoStudio's no-printer path (Printer Error 2),
and PlaySlowCry. wMooMooBerries joins the saved script bytes.
Port trainer item AI: the 13 healing, status and X items, the
highest-level gate, item use while Mean Look or Wrap prevents
switching, and the original's random and state quirks, checked against
the ROM over 5,632 states. Leaders with items are no longer refused.
Game Corner sprites match the original frame by frame: cursor and reel
positions, Golem's whole-frame flips, frame timing, the frame a removed
sprite is still drawn, and the Golem roll's screen shake. The Burned
Tower rival's garbage trainer header is documented as a boundary: its
seen text dispatches text command $7f into home code before any battle.
The playthrough continues for six stages to Jasmine; its driver can
Surf, fish and travel through floors joined by holes. New tests cover
trainer items, Olivine and Cianwood side content, and reference checks
for trainer items, trainer sight and Game Corner animations.

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 Goldenrod City and its buildings, the department store with its
elevator and rooftop, the Underground and its rooms, the Radio Tower
floors and the Route 35 gate.
Port what their scripts need: the herb shop, bargain shop, pharmacy and
rooftop sale marts with ROM stock, prices and text; the Name Rater; the
haircut brothers' happiness tables; the Lucky Number show over the party
and boxes with its saved number and Friday countdown (RTC day timers with
the 140-day wrap); coin and money balance boxes; Game Corner prize
registration through NewPokedexEntry; gift Pokémon to the box when the
party is full, with OT, nickname and MAIL (Kenya's 15-letter first line
now stores). Saves gain hallOfFame, timers and luckyNumber, with
defaults for older saves, and wUndergroundSwitchPositions joins the
saved script bytes.
The playthrough continues to the Bicycle, Whitney, the PLAINBADGE and the
radio card. SlotMachine and CardFlip are still refused.

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.

On Docker-Builder1 the emulator comparisons now exceed Playwright's 30 s
default (13 Chromium parity tests in run 136) although they pass locally
in under 10 s. The job limit rises to 60 minutes to fit the slower runs.

Four private runs lost the runner during the Chromium/WebKit step: the

A manifest and icons rendered from icon.svg make the app installable.
The native build emits a service worker that precaches exactly the
built files and passes everything else to the network, so ROMs never
reach its cache. New versions wait for the player's Update, which saves
before reloading. Savegames offers installation, iPhone steps and
persistent storage, and a full disk gets its own save error.
Acceptance on physical iPhone and Android devices remains.

The pack's TM/HM pocket lists TMs and HMs with their moves, gives TMs and teaches either through the ABLE/NOT ABLE party menu, the compatibility and "already knows" checks and LearnMove; a TM is used up and makes the Pokémon happier. Eggs show no level or HP in the party menus, get the Egg stats page with its hatching hint, and are skipped by HealParty. Bug Catcher Wade's number registers (VAR_CALLERID and RandomPhoneMon).
The playthrough now runs through Falkner's ZEPHYRBADGE, the Togepi Egg, Kyle's Onix, Flash in Dark Cave, Wade's number and Earl's blackboard. With MAKE_TEST_SAVES it writes a Violet City backup for the manual checks.
Validated with 610 unit tests, 157 browser tests (including all 256 badge bytes against the original BadgeStatBoosts), native/reference builds and reference/vendor/release checks. Egg hatching (#29) and trainer calls (#30) remain on their cards.

Enable Route 31 and its gate, Dark Cave's Violet entrance, Violet City with its buildings and Sprout Tower. Port the script commands they use: gettrainername, askforphonenumber (with AddPhoneNumber's room for Mom and Elm; addcellnum now reports failure as the original does), checkpokemail, loadmenu/_2dmenu/closewindow, giveegg and trade (NPCTrade, with wTradeFlags saved).
Eggs keep their species with an egg flag, as wPartySpecies does. The pack's TM/HM counts receive, check and toss TMs and HMs, which are named TM01-HM07.
The playthrough continues through Route 31 (with Mom's call), Violet City and Sprout Tower to Elder Li's Flash.

BadgeStatBoosts runs where the original calls it: when a Pokémon is sent out, after an in-battle level-up, and in CalcPlayerStats. It keeps the PlainBadge/MineralBadge swap and the Glacier Badge's Special Defense register bug. A transformed Pokémon that levels up now keeps its copied stats.
The reference emulator compares all 256 badge bytes over 28 stat sets per browser against the unmodified routine.

Run the forced-shiny, trap, forced-item, Celebi, Suicune, roaming and Bug-Catching Contest battle types. Roaming battles keep their struct's DVs and HP byte, and every other battle makes CleanUpBattleRAM's roaming roll. The contest shows PARKBALL×, counts down Park Balls, ends when they run out, keeps its catch outside the party and asks before switching. Scripts load the special types with loadvar, and while a contest runs, encounters use BugCatchingContestBattleScript and ContestMons.
Validated with 596 unit tests, 155 browser tests (including the contest menu and switch screen), native/reference builds and reference/vendor/release checks. National Park's contest event, the roaming release and the Ilex Forest Celebi event come with their maps.

Add the Heavy, Level, Lure, Fast, Friend, Moon and Love Balls with their documented bugs, the Park Ball's multiplier outside the contest, and Friend Ball happiness in the party and the PC. The Heavy Ball is refused for Kadabra and Sunflora, whose original weight read runs into VRAM.
The reference emulator compares 6,153 more catch states per browser against the unmodified PokeBallEffect. Validated with 582 unit tests, 153 browser tests, native/reference builds and reference/vendor/release checks. The Bug-Catching Contest and other special battle types remain on #28.

Translate every AI_Smart_EffectHandlers entry, so trainers with the Smart layer are no longer refused. The AI's type checks keep the CheckTypeMatchup bug: they read the move type and Foresight flag through hBattleTurn, and Conversion2's write to the player's move type persists.
The reference emulator runs the unmodified AI_Smart routine over 6,024 states per browser, comparing scores, Random consumption, hBattleTurn and the player's move type. Validated with 579 unit tests, 151 browser tests, native/reference builds and reference/vendor/release checks. Kurt's balls, Park and Safari balls and special battle types remain on #28.

Spin, AncientPower and Future Sight now run, with Future Sight, Perish
Song, Safeguard and Encore handled between turns and Spikes on entry.
A trainer's party struct now follows its Pokémon where the original
updates it, and the enemy's moves spend PP there or in the wild
Pokémon's kept PP, so a caught Pokémon keeps the PP it used.

A recharging, charged, rampaging or rolling Pokémon plays on without the
battle menu on either side, and a biding one uses FIGHT without the move
list. Razor Wind, Solarbeam, Skull Bash, Sky Attack, Fly and Dig charge
first; flying and digging Pokémon can only be hit by the original's
exceptions. Hyper Beam recharges, Thrash and its kind end in confusion,
Rollout and Fury Cutter double up, and Bide returns twice the damage it
took.
The trapping moves hurt their target between turns until it is released,
Mind Reader and Lock-On make the next move hit, and Pursuit strikes a
Pokémon being withdrawn first, on either side.
The new commands are compared with the original in the reference
emulator. Its fixture no longer zeroes wPlayerScreens with its sentinel.

Multi-hit moves loop back to the script's critical command as EndLoop
does, with its hit-count draws, Triple Kick's growing kicks and Beat Up's
party members, and say "Hit n times!" from the borrowed high byte of the
user's damage taken. ConstantDamage covers Seismic Toss, Night Shade,
Sonicboom, Dragon Rage, Psywave, Super Fang and Flail/Reversal.
One-hit KO moves, Counter, Mirror Coat, False Swipe, Magnitude, Present,
Hidden Power, Return, Frustration, Selfdestruct, Dream Eater, Thief, Pay
Day, freezing, Tri Attack, added confusion, Swagger, thawing by fire
moves, Jump Kick's crash and Minimize with Stomp now run. Pay Day's coins

Giving MAIL opens the mail entry: two lines of up to sixteen characters,
kept with the player's name and ID, the holder's species and the MAIL.
The party submenu's MAIL reads the letter or takes it, either to the PC's
MAILBOX (ten at most) or into the pack without its message. The player's
PC lists the MAILBOX by author to read, put in the pack or attach, and
Bill's PC keeps a Pokémon holding MAIL out of the boxes. Saves keep each
holder's MAIL and the MAILBOX.

The Old, Good and Super Rods run FishFunction facing water: the map's fish
group and Fish pick no fish, no bite, or a Pokémon from FishGroups and the
time of day's TimeFishGroups. The player casts and jiggles with the
fishing frames drawn from LoadFishingGFX's tiles, shows "!" on a bite, and
the hooked Pokémon attacks as BATTLETYPE_FISH. Facing pieces now use
signed offsets, which the rod above and left of the player needs.
Wild Magikarp no longer stop a battle: LoadEnemyMon redraws their DVs
through CalcMagikarpLength and its filters, as the original does. The

Repel, Super Repel and Max Repel count down 100, 200 or 250 steps where
CountStep does, keep weaker wild Pokémon away from the first party member
that has not fainted, and print "REPEL's effect wore off." on the last
step. The Coin Case and the Blue Card show their balances, Sacred Ash
revives the party once one Pokémon has fainted, and the Normal and
Gorgeous Boxes send their trophy home.
The Itemfinder looks for unfound hidden items on the original's screen
around the player. The Card Key, the Basement Key and the Squirtbottle

Facing a Headbutt tree asks to HEADBUTT it, and HEADBUTT from the party
menu skips the question. ShakeHeadbuttTree shakes the tree as a sprite over
grass, then TreeMonEncounter scores the facing tile against the trainer ID
and draws from the map's common or rare tree table. A Pokémon that falls
fights as BATTLETYPE_TREE: "fell out of the tree!", and the time of day's
AsleepTreeMons species start asleep.
Smashable rocks run SmashRockScript, and ROCK SMASH from the party menu

OPTION in the start menu runs _Option with the ROM's labels and settings,
OptionsControl's cursor wrapping and each option's bit handling. The four
