A pokemon's name, however, only contains 10 bytes of data but this still lets us modify what pokemon it is, it's item, and it's four moves. They will simply correspond to the hex of the characters/letters of the pokemon's name. This is where we realize a very big limitation to this glitch. Character's that can be put into your pokemon's name only span about 64 slots out of the 256 total slots. (refer to http://glitchcity.info/biglist.htm) These 64 slots include the Generation I legendaries including mew. They also include the move sketch which can of course be used to learn any move.

Text Procedure:
Prerequisites:
An Egg
An FF in the daycare
Five pokemon you do not care about.
Possibly a good bit of money. (Clone half a dozen or so nuggets first)
A rare candy
1. Nickname a pokemon. The first letter of its name will determine what pokemon it becomes. The second letter will determine the item it is holding. Letters/characters 3-6 will determine what moves the pokemon will have. The level of this pokemon should be one level lower than the desired end result. (refer to http://glitchcity.info/biglist.htm for hex conversions)
2. Have in your party the nicknamed pokemon, the egg, and three other pokemon.
3. Take out your FF.
4. Form your party like this:
FF
A pokemon
The nicknamed pokemon
The egg
A pokemon
A pokemon
5. Open your PC. Use Move PKMN to move a pokemon to your party.
6. View your party. Your nicknamed pokemon is now an egg.
7. Switch your seventh pokemon with your sixth.
8. Switch your nicknamed pokemon/egg with the very first or top pokemon.
9. Switch your nicknamed pokemon/egg with the very last or bottom pokemon.
10. Switch it back with position four where it originally was.
11. Put your FF into the daycare.
12. Your bottom two pokemon will now appear to be FFs but they will revert into the original pokemon once each one is put into and taken out of the daycare. Go ahead and do this.
13. While you have this egg attempting to deposit your pokemon with the PC will likely freeze the game. Even using Move PKMN will result in freezing. This is somehow due to the egg youve created. Once you hatch the egg this shouldnt be a problem anymore.
14. Hatch the egg. It should hatch into the pokemon you wanted, holding the item you wanted, with the moves you wanted. Everything about the newly hatched pokemon is glitch free except its experience points will be abnormally high. This will cause it to jump to level 100 if put in the daycare or used in battle.
15. Use a rare candy on it. This will set its experience points to a normal level.
16. Save your game. Open your PC. Using deposit release any pokemon with a glitch name or that is at level zero. (Your first Pokemon should be the only abnormal one and is essentially a "bad clone".) Your remaining pokemon (other than the one that was converted) will be hybrids of the pokemon that was below them. Putting them into and taking them out of the daycare will cause them to revert back to what they once were.
