▲Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE) is the use of glitches to force the game to execute custom code written by the player. This gives the player near-complete control of the game, allowing the following uses:
* Add any pokémon, regardless of version.
* Add any item to the item bag.
* Freely edit pokémon data, including giving a pokémon any move, editing stat experience and editing DVs to obtain shiny pokémon.
* Experiment with more complex behaviour, such as walking through walls or adding a run function.
* For Virtual Console versions, transfer pokémon that could otherwise not be transferred like Mew, the full Treecko line and Torchic.
* And many more uses.

==What does this set of guides install?==
Line 17 ⟶ 24:
# Provide several useful scripts and programs that can be used in combination with the mail writer.
ACE for Gold and Silver can be set up after reaching Goldenrod City, requiring at least two badges. ACE for Crystal can be set up after reaching
In addition, more technically demanding alternative setups exist for Gold and Silver that can be set up in Violet City, right after obtaining the first badge.

The following are guides that allows a faster setup on Pokémon Gold & Silver (from Violet City onwards instead of Goldenrod City). The drawback is that these are more technical to perform compared to the guides in the next table.

==Acknowledgements==
* This collection of guides wouldn't have been possible without the setups and programs written by [https://flag3833753.hatenablog.com/entry/2022/08/17/192006 flag3833753] and other members of the JP glitching community, most of which could be easily adapted to other versions.
* Thanks to Crystal_'s earlier contributions on setups for Gold/Silver, along with working out advanced box name code application.
* Thanks to TheZZAZZGlitch for demonstrating efficient ways to program a RAM writer program.
* Thanks to LuckyTyphlosion for working out rough guides on how to abuse 0x1500 ACE on Crystal.
* Thanks to the members of the Glitch City Research Institute discord for providing valuable support and feedback.
* Thanks to Scotteh for providing invaluable help in the development of the mail code converter tool.
* Thanks for Trent and Retire for proofreading the full set of guides.
