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.

Read TileCollisionStdScripts from the ROM so the Pokémon Center PC runs
PokemonCenterPC: Bill's PC (deposit, withdraw, release, change and name
boxes), the player's item storage (withdraw, deposit, toss, mail box) and
Oak's Pokédex rating. The house PC now opens the full player's PC menu.
A catch with a full party goes to the current box through SendMonIntoBox;
a full box keeps the ball, and filling it queues Bill's call as a memory
script after the battle. Saves gain boxes, box names and PC items,
migrated by absence.

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.
