Pokemon Gold/Silver - Generic Coin Case ACE setup for almost any purpose (no item list required)
This video expands on the known Coin Case abitrary code execution (ACE) exploit that exists in the english versions of Pokemon Gold and Silver. It provides step-by-step instructions with plenty of details and examples on how to set up a single versatile ACE method and use it for multiple different purposes. Specific items aren't required, as box names are used instead to spell out the code, in order to make the setup more accessible and appealing.
Don't be scared about the length of the video. It's only so long because it contains plenty of details, examples, and some useful troubleshooting. It also begins with an introduction that you can skip by going right to 2:15. The length of this video is actually about the same amount of time that it would take to you to set everything up, if not more.
Any information not covered in the video that is found important or relevant will go here:
- At 9:58, the bolded text should have been "make Quagsire hold one of the TM09, replacing its current TM02".
- The pinned comment contains various useful box name codes compatible with this setup (thanks to user Timothy Gerritsen), so does this document (thanks to user Matt, also in the comments): https://pastebin.com/y3SJ4ZqV

Use the following spreadsheet for additional help -
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Wu2v3gnqzdj1QF2thz6xGKJaObVwPkpg0VR6HCJJYp0
It contains the following information:
- "IDs" sheet: Internal numbers (IDs) of Pokemon, moves, and items.
- "Addresses" sheet: Location and meaning of relevant memory addresses, including additional information on how to use them for the most requested purposes. I will be adding more useful memory addresses in the future.
- "Hex2Text" sheet: Table to convert each pair of digits to its respective pair of text symbols.
You will know how and why to use this spreadsheet after watching the video.
