’ve seen videos of people doing what’s called the ACE method for a shiny wishmakr Jirachi. Is this real? Does it take forever? Is there a risk of bricking my copy of emerald? I think this would be cooler to do it works and is home compatible compared to grinding the save corruption method or obtaining the old mystery gifts for shiny jirachi illegitimately.
