+### Defog HM Uses Water Palette
+
+HM05 (Defog) is a Flying-type move, but its TM/HM icon in the bag erroneously
+uses the water-type palette instead of the flying-type palette.
+
+**Fix:** Edit the `sItemArchiveIDs` entry for `ITEM_HM05` in [`src/item.c`](https://github.com/pret/pokeplatinum/blob/main/src/item.c):
+
+```diff
+     [ITEM_HM05] = {
+         .dataID = 0x192,
+         .iconID = hm_NCGR,
+-        .paletteID = tm_water_NCLR, // BUG: Defog is a flying type move, but erroneously uses the water palette.
++        .paletteID = tm_flying_NCLR,
+         .gen3ID = GBA_ITEM_HM05,
+     },
+```
