ROM File Structure

A detailed list of the file structure of the ROM's nitro-fs filesystem.

First/Second level directories:

/BACK/
Contains large compressed BGP images. Some of those appear during the game startup, some later during the game.
/BALANCE/
Seems to contain value relative to pokemon stats and various information about levels/dungeons.

Contains what seems to be some dungeon tiles.
/DWC/
Data for the standard NDS Wifi setup screen.
/EFFECT/
Contains some of the effect sprites.

Contains fonts, UI element resources, palettes, and the portraits for the talking pokemon during the game.

Contains various sprites, apparently mostly for decorating the maps.
/MAP_BG/
Contains what seems to be map tiles.
/MESSAGE/
Contains the strings for most of the game!
/MONSTER/
Contains the pokemon sprites for battle and the "overworld".

/SCRIPT/
Contains the scripts for the whole game. Each directories has an identifier related to the context it takes place in.
