_getSubStatObject: Returns the second byte; 2 values up to 3 for the HiByte, and a third one just for the LoByte. Labeled: State1, State2, ExtraState. _getSubStatMode: Can be a mix of booleans and a number. Configured by byte 0x3's HiNibble. It sets a value from 0-8, allocating the high area of byte 0x6 for bools. The remaining is for a number.
