About This File
This save file has been set up with ACE to be able to shiny hunt any Kanto or Johto Pokémon in Pokémon Red using the fossil conversion glitch. The current Pokémon to hunt is Ho-oh, though it will be explained how to change it to any Pokémon (except Celebi). This save file should only work with the English version of Pokémon Red (including 3DS VC), though it is also possible to perform it on Blue and Yellow. The OT has been changed to PPorg. If you want to use this save file for the original Game Boy version, change the extension to .sav.
This glitch allows to change the Pokémon that you can recieve from the fossil researcher in Cinnabar Island. All the required stats for each species can be found in the Generation 1 Shiny Tool, where you will also find a guide to set up manually the fossil conversion glitch. This save file is exactly in Part 10 - Step 15 of the guide. If you are hunting a Johto Pokémon (with a few exceptions) it is absolutely recommended to read the remaining steps in order to peform ACE to change the type of the Pokémon.
How to use
Once you have transfered your Pokémon to Gold/Silver/Crystal, you can perform the following ACE codes to clear the received flag and/or change the species of the Pokémon:
0101A3D7 (Clear the received flag)
01XX10D7 (Set the species of the Pokémon, where XX is its internal ID number in hexadecimal)
The codes have this format: 01XXYYZZ
XX: the number of Lemonades you need to have in the inventory.
YY: the number of X Accuracies you need to have in the inventory.
ZZ: the number of Carbos you need to have in the inventory.
Once you have the exact amount of each item, double check you have the same item amounts as in Part 12 - Step 2 of the previously mentioned guide (except Lemonades, X Accuracies and Carbos), and use the "4F" item to perform the code. Keep in mind that, for example, "D7" is "215" in decimal, the exact amount of the item you should have.
