[[Character encoding in Generation III|In the Generation III games]] (primarily RSE), the word "^P_O^K_éBLOCK" is written with 5 bytes (in hex: <code>55 56 57 58 59</code>). The first two are easily ^P_O and ^K_é, but for the last three bytes, there's no way to tell just from "BLOCK" which byte corresponds to what exactly. If someone could mod and play a ROM (or RAM) so that 0x58 shows up (isolated from 0x57 and 0x59) in a town sign or someone's dialogue or something and see what that byte produces, we could know for sure what each of the bytes is.

(And while we're discussing [[Character encoding in Generation III|character bytes]], it might be neat if someone checked all the characters that are currently "unused" bytes, just to see if a few coherent characters turn up. I suspect that "×" might be hiding somewhere (like shows up in the [[Bag]]), and I wouldn't be too surprised to find miscellaneous other characters that will print, even if they may have never been used.)
