Gogo style magic is easier to do than a custom magic list.
You can skip this menu part if you don't intend it to last more than one battle...
The big one is making sure that Umaro and guests use Gogo-style party magic.
You can change the middle pointer to match Gogo's, or you can change where the branch distinguishes the two. Either way will give Umaro and Guests party-based magic (which has no effect Umaro unless you give him the magic command, so this is the easiest approach).
You might also be able to do an 'if guest, load from a ROM learned spell table instead of from a character RAM offset'. That would require a 0x36 entry table with 0xFF in each spell position the character is meant to know. I haven't tried something like that, though, so that's all hypothetical.
The one patch MMMMMMagic might also let you give guest characters spell sets. I'm not as familiar with that one.
