[Map✓] No Wild Encounters in Artisan Cave

For some reason I cannot encounter any wild Pokemon in Artisan Cave, even though you can clearly hear Smeargle's cry in the background sometimes. I didn't change anything on this map, so everything is the same as in the original. If you change wild Pokemon data (change species or encounter rate) everything is still the same.
Does someone know what's the problem here?

You could have overwrote some data. Look if the "Wild Pokémon" encounter ratio data in Advance Map is not set to zero. Then, check (in Advanced Map) whether the tiles have the proper behavior byte. To verify this, open a clean ROM and check what value is there for those tiles (I think it is 08). If that does not help, there must be some problem with the hex values (or some script).

Yeah, it was a behavior byte. I set it back to 08 and encounters were back. Huge thanks to you!
