EV-enhancing items (Power Items)


Spoiler:


The routine now does not require any new Held Effect Item Byte. The new power items are tied to Macho Brace's Held Item Effect Byte. (Thanks to MrDollSteak for giving the idea.)
The type of EV gain is now differentiated by the Second Held Effect Byte (the byte just after the Primary Held Effect Byte in the Item Table).
There is no need to code the Speed Drop explicitly for Power Items.

Usage is now like this by using the following parameters in the Item Table:
Primary Byte | Secondary Byte | Item Name
0x18 | 0x0 | Macho Brace
0x18 | 0x1 | Power Weight
0x18 | 0x2 | Power Bracer
0x18 | 0x3 | Power Belt
0x18 | 0x4 | Power Anklet
0x18 | 0x5 | Power Lens
0x18 | 0x6 | Power Band

Also, there are additional byte changes mentioned in the Spoiler to limit the EVs for each stat from 255 to 252 to avoid wastage of EVs by normal battling.
