Random:: ; 2f8c
; A simple hardware-based random number generator (RNG).

; Two random numbers are generated by adding and subtracting
; the divider to the respective values every time it's called.

; The divider is a register that increments at a rate of 16384Hz.
; For comparison, the Game Boy operates at a clock speed of 4.2MHz.

; Additionally, an equivalent function is executed in VBlank.

; This leaves a with the value in hRandomSub.

BattleRandom:: ; 2f9f
; _BattleRandom lives in another bank.

; It handles all RNG calls in the battle engine, allowing
; link battles to remain in sync using a shared PRNG.
