CalcMagikarpLength: ; fbbfc
; Return Magikarp's length (in mm) in MagikarpLength (big endian)
;
; input:
;   de: EnemyMonDVs
;   bc: PlayerID

; This function is needlessly convoluted, and poorly commented.
; Reading is discouraged.

; In short, it generates a value between 190 and 1786 using
; a Magikarp's DVs and its trainer ID. This value is further
; scrutinized in GetEnemyMon to make longer Magikarp even rarer.

; This is done by calculating the value using operands from
; a conversion lookup table.

; Our index is calculated by xoring DVs with the trainer ID:

; bc = rrc(rrc(dvs)) xor rrc(id)

; if bc < $a:     MagikarpLength = c + 190
; if bc >= $ff00: MagikarpLength = c + 1370
; else:           MagikarpLength = z*100 + (bc-x)/y

; X, Y, and Z depend on the value of b as follows:

; if b = 0:        x =   310,  y =   2,  z =  3
; if b = 1:        x =   710,  y =   4,  z =  4
; if b = 2-9:      x =  2710,  y =  20,  z =  5
; if b = 10-29:    x =  7710,  y =  50,  z =  6
; if b = 30-68:    x = 17710,  y = 100,  z =  7
; if b = 69-126:   x = 32710,  y = 150,  z =  8
; if b = 127-185:  x = 47710,  y = 150,  z =  9
; if b = 186-224:  x = 57710,  y = 100,  z = 10
; if b = 225-243:  x = 62710,  y =  50,  z = 11
; if b = 244-251:  x = 64710,  y =  20,  z = 12
; if b = 252-253:  x = 65210,  y =   5,  z = 13
; if b = 254:      x = 65410,  y =   2,  z = 14

; These values represent arbitrary conversion points.
