-Some fixes are mentioned as breaking compatibility with link battles. This can be avoided by writing more complicated fixes that only apply if the value at `[wLinkMode]` is not `LINK_COLOSSEUM`. That's how Crystal itself fixed two bugs in Gold and Silver regarding the moves [Reflect and Light Screen](#reflect-and-light-screen-can-make-special-defense-wrap-around-above-1024) and [Present](#present-damage-is-incorrect-in-link-battles).
+Fixes in the [multi-player battle engine](#multi-player-battle-engine) category will break compatibility with standard Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal for link battles, unless otherwise noted. This can be avoided by writing more complicated fixes that only apply if the value at `[wLinkMode]` is not `LINK_COLOSSEUM`. That's how Crystal itself fixed two bugs in Gold and Silver regarding the moves [Reflect and Light Screen](#reflect-and-light-screen-can-make-special-defense-wrap-around-above-1024) and [Present](#present-damage-is-incorrect-in-link-battles).

-## Glacier Badge may not boost Special Defense depending on the value of Special Attack
+### Moves with a 100% secondary effect chance will not trigger it in 1/256 uses
-As Pryce's dialog ("That BADGE will raise the SPECIAL stats of POKéMON.") implies, Glacier Badge is intended to boost both Special Attack and Special Defense. However, due to BoostStat overwriting `a` when boosting Special Attack, the Special Defense boost will not happen if the unboosted Special Attack stat is either 0-205 or 433-660.

+To select a move in battle, you have to press and release the Up or Down buttons. However, after playing the credits sequence, holding down either button will continuously scroll through the moves.
+**Fix:** Edit `Credits` in [engine/movie/credits.asm](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/engine/movie/credits.asm):
-## Magikarp lengths can be miscalculated
+```diff

++ pop af
++ ldh [hInMenu], a
+ pop af
+ ldh [hVBlank], a
+ pop af
+ ldh [rSVBK], a
+```
+
+The `[hInMenu]` value determines this button behavior. However, the battle moves menu doesn't actually set `[hInMenu]` to anything, so either behavior *may* have been intentional. The default 0 prevents continuous scrolling; a value of 1 allows it. (The Japanese release sets it to 0.)
+
+**Optional fix:** To explicitly set a `[hInMenu]` for the moves menu, edit `BattleTurn` in [engine/battle/core.asm](https://github.com/pret/pokecrystal/blob/master/engine/battle/core.asm):
