The French, German, Italian and Spanish releases store Magikarp's
length in millimetres (and print a tenth of them), start the Magikarp
house's record at their own length and holder, keep Pokédex heights in
decimetres and weights in hectograms (printed in metres and kilograms),
read the Heavy Ball's weight byte without converting it, and place the
enemy's nickname before EnemyText (French, Italian) or the trainer's
name before the class (French, Italian, Spanish).
map-revision --symbols writes each release's symbol file, so the
reference specs run against a release; specs that pin English data skip
there.

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.

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
length routine matches the original in the reference emulator.
Part of #27

- Enable Route 29, its Route 46 gate, Cherrygrove City and its buildings.
- Run item balls through FindItemInBallScript and fruit trees through
FruitTreeScript, with a native daily reset of the daily engine flags.
- Port the Pokémon Center nurse (HealParty with the PP Up clamp,
CheckPokerus, phone-call checks) and record the whiteout spawn on
entering a Pokémon Center, as EnterMapWarp does.
- Port standard Poké Marts with keyboard, D-pad and pointer menus.
- Add the recoil battle command (Struggle) and VAR_BOXSPACE.
- Save fruit trees, the daily reset day and the last spawn map; older
version-3 backups migrate by absence.
