== Consistent, but confusing. ==
I've noticed in this and several other related articles, there's the convention that 2-byte structures are called words, while 4-byte structures are called dwords (double-words). This is kept consistent throughout Bulbapedia (as much as I can tell, anyway), however, it's not really correct. The hardware is 32-bit. A word should be 32-bits, and the 16-bit numbers should be hwords (half-words).
As long as it's consistent, it's not that big a deal, but for people who are using this as for documentation for hex editing or ASM, it'll probably throw them off.--[[User:Goukazaru|Gou]] ([[User talk:Goukazaru|talk]]) 18:47, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
