In the generation 2 games, items are stored in their own dedicated compartiments. All TMs and HMs are stored in their own pocket, all key items are kept in their own pocket, etc..
⚫
In this guide, an initial ACE setup will be created using the following general process:

By glitching an item into a pocket that it's not supposed to be, we can use the item to achieve various glitchy effects. In particular, using TMs from the wrong pocket will confuse the game, causing it to treat the TM as a "normal" item and execute invalid item effects, some of which can lead to arbitrary code execution.

TM17, in particular, executes code starting from $FA47, a duplicate of address $DA47. This region corresponds to party pokémon #2's data. In this guide, we'll go through the process of obtaining TM15 outside the TM/HM pocket, along with how to obtain a pokémon that can redirect TM15's effect to the start of box names ($D8AD).

In practice, the initial ACE setup will be created using the following general process:
# Obtain the necessary items and pokémon for the setup.
# Obtain the necessary items and pokémon for the setup.
# Obtain a [[Bad clone glitch|bad clone]].

This works in any language version on any generation 2 game, the method is based on a translation of a [[https://nakayoshibaddi.hatenadiary.jp/entry/2017/08/15/223932 blogpost from 任意コード]]. When in the ball pocket, TM17 functions as a wrong pocket TM with its effect pointer at $DA47 (middle of the first party pokémon's data).
