Struck by the never growing Cheri Berry glitch. Possible fix with PKHeX?

[SwagKey]

So there's this little known glitch in Pokemon Emerald where if you trade with either Colosseum or XD it automatically plants a Cheri Berry next to the Berry Master's house that never fully grows. Unfortunately it happened to me and now I can't plant anything there, but since I have access to my save file I was wondering if there's a way to use PKHeX to remove it.

Any help is appreciated!

I don't know how the berry planting system works, but if you have a save that is before planting the berry at that spot, and a save directly after planting a berry at the spot, we may be able to try to work something out.

Unfortunately, I don't have a save file from before it happened, only after. At best I can provide a save that has no other berries planted but the glitched Cheri Berry.

mind showing me a picture which exact plot you're referring to? I can try to work it out in my free time.

This spot right here. It's happened to other people as well so I'm not alone with this weird glitch.

So the matter has been resolved.

Anyhow, I'm gonna use this to document my findings until I get I get a separate page done.

So far, these are the bytes for the berries. They're stored in Section ID 02 Block of the save.

For this specific berry plot, it'll be at 0x924 of the block.
