Pokégen does not display bred-pokémons' trashbytes properly in 4th gen games

[Shiannui]

Hi, I noticed that Pokégen (previous revision and this last one, 3.1.10) messes up trashbytes of bred pokés in 4th gen games (I've checked with Soul Silver and Heart Gold). It shows this:

RATTATA\FFFFA\0000\4008

TORCHIC\FFFFA\0000\4008

PIPLUP\FFFF\0211A\0000\4008

Sometimes, Pokégen shows this:

SCYTHER\FFFFぁ\4008\0000

It seems that it always occur with the 9th character. When the Pokémon evolves, trashbytes are corrected.

This is not a bug.

When trash bytes match a unicode character, PokeGen displays that unicode character instead of displaying hex.

\FFFF = FF FF (not a unicode character)

\0211 = 11 02 (not a unicode character)

A = \0041 = 41 00 (a unicode character!)

It just so happens that the trashbytes match a unicode character, that's all.

Hmmm, ok, but, why does pokégen randomly change the 9th trashbyte from A to ぁ? Besides, Legality Analysis says there are trashbytes but no associated name.

It's not randomly doing anything. The data indicates the unicode value of that character.

Also, Kaphotics, I have no idea why you decided to reverse the byte order.

If OP opened it with a hex editor it would usually default 1 byte view in that order
