While we now have a way to execute box name codes using ACE, the current setup has a few drawbacks:
* Executing ACE requires performing various specific steps, preventing us from using ACE whenever we want.
* Executing ACE requires reading a mail before every execution
* Box name codes have a limited characterset, effectively meaning that it's difficult to set up more complicated ACE effects.

To resolve this issue, we're going to install the Mail Writer. This is a 50 byte program, installed as a series of TM quantities, that will allow us to quickly and efficiently write and execute any arbitrary code we want.

To do that, we're going to use a box name code to obtain 255 copies of all TMs, then sell them in specific quantities to write out a program. Alongside that, the box name code will also add a TM25 to the main item pocket. Using this TM25, outside of the TM/HM pocket, will allow us to execute the Mail Writer at any time as long as a specific pokémon is kept in the second party slot.

The mail writer itself will be installed in the TM/HM pocket through the following two step process:
# Execute a box code using Coin Case ACE that sets the quantities of all 50 TMs to x255, as well as placing a TM25 in the main item pocket. On top of that, it will modify the data of party pokémon #5 so that they allow TM25 to be safely used, as long as it is kept in the second party slot.
# Execute a box code using Coin Case ACE that sets the quantities of all 50 TMs to x255, as well as placing a TM25 in the main item pocket. On top of that, it will modify the data of party pokémon #3 so that TM25's effect gets redirected to the start of the TM/HM pocket, as long as it is kept in the second party slot.
# Sell TMs in specific quantities so that the amount of TMs in the TM/HM pocket spell out a small mail writer program.

* Rename box names to form the following language dependent codes. '''Please mind the differences between uppercase X ([[File:Character UCX.png]]), lowercase x ([[File:Character lcx.png]]) and multiplication symbol ([[File:Character mul.png]])'''.
