Note that in Generation II, if 3 × HP<sub>max</sub> > 255, then both 3 × HP<sub>max</sub> and 2 × HP<sub>current</sub> are quartered (rounded down) for use in the formula; if the latter is 0, it is made to 1 instead in this case.  Note that the subtraction itself may underflow, due to both values being unsigned 8-bit integers in Generation II.
