Guides:Wrong Pocket TM ACE setup (JP): Difference between revisions

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.

In practice, the initial ACE setup will be created using the following general process:

The method described on this page requires fairly heavy abuse of glitches that will produce a small amount of side effects. All these side effects can be fixed with later applications of ACE and are never permanently harmful for the game in any way:

Later parts of the guide will offer methods to fix these side effects.

'''When playing on original cartridge or on emulator, it is absolutely required to have used the Clear Save Data feature (press SELECT + UP + B on the title screen) at least once since owning the game.'''

* The guide requires having reached Goldenrod City, to access the Day Care and the GoldenRod Dept. Store.

* Due to technical reasons, please ensure that the following is true for your trainer ID:

** Your trainer ID must not be equal or higher than 65280.

* '''This method is only possible if you've never had a full party at any point since starting the game.''' Follow step 1b if you don't fulfill this requirement.

* Catch an Abra (10% spawn rate on route 34 all day). Save and reset to save on poké balls used.

==Obtaining the bad clone==

# TELEPORT to Goldenrod city. Deposit all pokémon except one. Return to the National Park.

# You'll be asked if you want to quit the contest. This time, select "Yes".

Now that you have the bad clone, continue to step 3.

# Using the [[Pokémon cloning (Generation II)|cloning glitch]], get at least six copies of Machop (it is recommended to keep some spares just to be safe). We'll be using these Machop in the remainder of the setup.

(Both can be bought in the Goldenrod Dept. Store if needed, make sure to store or sell everything else you have in the Ball pocket.)

Have the following pokémon in the box:

# Go to the bottom of the key item list. The bottom of the list should consist of three separate bicycles.

# Press select on the '''second''' bicycle and swap it with the '''third''' bicycle. The number of bicycles will decrease, the "Cancel" button will change to a "Teru-Sama" item.

Do not worry about the glitch pokémon that's still in your party or the key item list that lacks a cancel button, we'll fix both in the last step of the guide.

==Testing the setup==

* Rename box code 1:

* Use TM17 once. If executed successfully, it will add 255 copies of TM27 to the TM/HM pocket.

If the code crashes, check the following:

This causes a redirection of execution to a region right in front of wBoxNames. This region is mostly unused and consists of $00 values, with the exception of $D8AF which describes the current active box. After safely sliding through this region, the box name code is executed.
