Another way of accessing arbitrary code in {{GSC}} is through the [[Coin Case glitch]] (in English Gold/Silver only) or [[Glitch item#TMs and HMs outside of the correct pocket|TMs and HMs outside of the correct pocket]]. The glitch TM/HM method is ideal because TMs and HMs can be forced into the PC items; also available through the expanded Balls pocket.
