Pocket Definitions [ObjectDefinitionsTable]

The label [ObjectDefinitionsTable] in the sourcecode, at BW439[???] and BEXT[$EF4A] respectively is used to give initial definitions for all 85 objects as they appear in the Champions Pockets.

This block of data is $154 bytes long, with 4 bytes per object

Icon/Byte 1	Colour/Byte 2	Name 1/Byte3	Name 2/Byte 4
2B	05	33	3D
	Green	Long	Bow

The Object's Icon is determined according the the main Tile sheet, which is 20 tiles wide by 6 tiles tall. A full list of all available icons are detailed here: Icon List
