[Scripting Question] I needeth help with creating two new status conditions:

[BL69]

So I have two new status condition ideas:
Deafened
Irradiated

Context: I have two new types in the game: Sonic and Radiant

Deafened as suggested means the pkmn will not be able to hear the trainer's commands so in a way works like sleep. Caused by Sonic Type moves
Irradiated means the pkmn has been exposed to radiation, and so the effect will cause the pkmn to continuously lose HP, like with poison and burn. Caused by Radiant Type moves.

It would really be great if someone could either guide me on how to script the code, write it themselves and explain or any other way you think might be more helpful.
So in short pls help me create scripts for two new status conditions.

Rule of thumb when trying to figure out how to do things yourself is to just adapt something that already exists. If Deafened "works like Sleep", then look at how Sleep is implemented and adapt Sleep. If Irradiated "works like Poison", then look at how Poison is implemented and adapt Poison.

Okay, and that is what I've done so far, but I'm struggling to find where the exact code which defines what the effects do are.
