Talk:Pokémon base stats data structure in Generation III

I noticed that the Color byte sometimes contains an extra bit of data...

Just wondered if anyone knew anything more about them?

Pokemon which feature it (National/GBA Index numbers)

60 (Polywag)

99 (Kingler)

125 (Electabuzz)

159 (Croconaw)

174 (Igglybuff)

186 (Politoed)

201 (Unown)

215 (Sneasel)

216 (Teddiursa)

239 (Elekid)

by GBA-game index numbers:

308 (Spinda)

363 (Roselia)

376 (Absol)

379 (Seviper)

380 (Zangoose)

410 (Deoxsys)

Also, I have made HexWorkshop bookmark and structures allowing to view the data if anyone cares.

--- Two points here:

I haven't found out why the color byte contains extra info. The article says something about a MSB bit. What is an MSB bit?
The information in this article was extremely useful (except for the ROM offsets). Thanks you so much. Using it, I was able to extract all the base stats info directly from Pokémon Leaf Green (English). (It was out of order at the end in the game storage - this must have something to do with extra evolutions not working until Pokédex upgrade. What a bugger.)
