One possible way would be to use decomp to change the value and build the rom file from that (so you have a fire red rom file with the only change being the "+1" change). Then you compare that file to an unmodified Fire Red file in a hex editor and see exactly what byte changed.
Just note that some changes (and perhaps even this one) mess up the entire hex structure of the built file, making it impossible to compare the rom files. The only way to find out would be to try it out.
