Notes
Special contestant flag
6-bit binary number. For Lisia, Wallace, Chaz, 0x21 or 0b100001. For other contestants, denotes contest rank:
000000 -----1 Always 1 ----1- Appears in Normal rank contests, is not Lisia, Wallace, or Chaz ---1-- Appears in Super rank contests, is not Lisia, Wallace, or Chaz --1--- Appears in Hyper rank contests, is not Lisia, Wallace, or Chaz -1---- Appears in Master rank contests, is not Lisia, Wallace, or Chaz 1----- Lisia, Wallace, or Chaz
Contest participation flags
Contestant categories are controlled by a 5-bit binary number, in the order Toughness, Cleverness, Cuteness, Beauty, Coolness (reversed from the usual in-game order). The bit will be 1 if the Pokémon appears in that category and 0 otherwise:
00000 Appears in no contests ----1 Appears in Coolness Contests ---1- Appears in Beauty Contests --1-- Appears in Cuteness Contests -1--- Appears in Cleverness Contests 1---- Appears in Toughness Contests
