clone help

[sonic17]

I want to clone, but I am scared my pokemon would get deleted. Could anyone tell me steps how to clone a pokemon without deleting it and without making it confusing?

1. Save in front of the PC in the Battle Tower.
2. Deposit the pokemon you want to clone in an empty box.
3. Leave the PC and save again.
4. Go to the PC one more time and withdraw the pokemon you want to clone, the one that's in an empty box.
5. Talk to the lady on the far right, and she will ask you to join a Multi Battle.
6. Select Yes and choose any two pokemon.
7. When she asks if you want to save, select Yes.
8. If everything so far has been done correctly, the game will wait about one second before doing anything else.
9. The one second wait was the glitch taking place. You should turn the game off without saving after the one second wait ends.
10. Turn off your game, and now the cloned pokemon is both in the PC and in your party.

Be sure to use the Deposit and Withdraw options instead of Move Pokemon.

There is a pokemon CLoning thread. It should contain every step, and what not to do. I was the one who found out how to mess it up, and believe me, I dont think you will screw it up. Also, You wont be able to clone until you beat the game, so dont worry about it yet.
