#### My Box 1 Is glitched. Is there any way to reset it?

I Was cloning pokemon in the crystal virtual consol and ended up getting a bad clone that turned into a kingdra. I ended up withdrawing it and putting it in the day care to stabilize it, but when i checked my boxes I found that my box 1 said it had 0 pokemon in it when it actually had 20. I withdrew a pokemon from it and then all the pokemon ended up disappearing. A glitched symbol appeared where it says how many pokemon are in the box. I filled the box with pokemon and they would glitch out (the names of the pokemon becoming my characters name, and getting shorter by one letter every time i added an extra pokemon). I kept filling the box with pokemon, thinking it might fix itself once its full again. However, after filling it up with pokemon, it is still glitched. Nothing shows up in the box when i look inside it, but it still has the glitched symbol where it says how many pokemon are in the box. also when i try putting pokemon in it, it restarts the game in gameboy mode for some reason.
The point is, i was wondering if there is any way to reset the box to having 0 pokemon it it, as i can't seem to find a way to fix this.
EDIT: would it be possible to possibly reset the box with ACE? Like maybe set all the values to 00 to completely empty it/reset it? Or is it more complicated than that? If there is a way to possibly undo it with ACE that would be good to know, as then I can continue to play through the game till I can perform the ACE needed to fix it.

The glitched symbol means you underflowed the number of Pokémon in the box. I suppose you might be able to fix it by capturing Pokémon and getting them sent to the PC, but I think you would end up triggering Withdraw Smash.
Anyways, to fix this using ACE, you'd simply need to set the number of mons in that box to 0, and write a $FF in the first slot of the ID list.
This could be done by :

[li]Switching to box 1[/li]
[li]Setting up a RAM writer setup[/li]
[li]Writing 0A to 0000[/li]
[li]Writing 01 to 4000[/li]
[li]Writing 00 to AD10[/li]
[li]Writing FF to AD11[/li]
[li]Switching boxes[/li]

Nooooo you did the mistake to clone in box 1 hahaha
Anyway a while back someone had this issue on Prama's Discord and issotm made that process to help him. I still have the tm code version of it and will post it asap
EDIT: I made this in form of a TM code.
Use a code to get 255 TMs of all TMs (or at least 1 to 20) then store/toss all the following TMs
- 80 TM01 (you now have x175)
- 168 TM02 (you now have x87)
- 160 TM03 (you now have x95)
- 193 TM04 (you now have x62)
- 245 TM05 (you now have x10)
- 237 TM06 (you now have x18)
- 193 TM07 (you now have x62).
- 254 TM08 (you now have x1)
- 21 TM09 (you now have x234)
- 254 TM10, then, the last TM10 (don't store 255 as once)
- 191 TM11 (you now have x64)
- 222 TM12 (you now have x33)
- 239 TM13 (you now have x16)
- 82 TM14 (you now have x173)
- 80 TM15 (you now have x175)
- 221 TM16 (you now have x34)
- 194 TM17 (you now have x61)
- 136 TM18 (you now have x119)
- 237 TM19 (you now have x18)
- 54 TM20 (you now have x201)
Organise stored items this way:
TM04 x89 (not the real TM04 but the fake one, that you can obtained with a 'get any item' code)
TM25 x4
TM10 x(any quantity)
Execute code from items.

I ran into a similar problem with the box I was using for bad clones, but I did find a relatively easy solution. But, if you're too far into your game it might not be one you want to use.
What I did was to withdraw the 6 most important pokemon from my boxes, and put another 2 in daycare, then restart the game.
Don't save over your old game, but play through until you catch your first pokemon.
Head to the Pokémon centre and clone your starter.
Risky, as you only get 1 shot. But if done correctly, a set of fresh, uncorrupted boxes will be saved into your old save game without saving over any of your progress.
The Pokémon in your party and daycare will be unaffected, but anything left in your boxes will be lost. You will end up with the cloned starter from the new game as well, so take that into consideration when choosing which Pokémon to save.
Depending on how far through you are, that might be an option :)

Are you able to Move Pokemon w/o Mail? See if that works, I read that someone had a similar issue and fixed it that way: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/7ubmo0/warning_you_can_in_fact_glitch_out_your_game_to/
