MISSINGNO and GLITCHES - talk about them HERE

[DarkBowsy]

Well I don't know if your friend would hack it or not, but all that matters is that you got out safe! Glad you didn't restart it... I would feel terrible!

By the way... Keep that Pokemon Yellow and keep it in good condition. When you sell it when you are older, that will be a lot of money! I have Pokemon Blue, Silver, and FireRed! All in great shape and I'm only 14! Just wish they were unused... Those are worth a LOT of money! Take Care!

I have a minor, but strange glitch in Pokemon Blue. I was trying to go to Glitch City, and I was surfing on the east coast of Cinnabar Island, then I ran into a Rhydon with only the front half of it's body; the other half was a jumble of messed up pixels. I tried to catch it, but unfortunately, my box was full. So I KO'ed it. Then I fan into another Rhydon. However, its cry echoed 3 times, then the game froze. After that, I never ran into another glitch Rhydon. That was plain FREAKY!!!

[ChloboShoka]

Cinnibar Island is very glitchy on my pokemon blue. I caught a level 127 Starmie and then when I trained it it went back to level 100. Interesting glitch pokemon.

um i dont know if this works or not but a frient told me that if u have the 3 birds a lapras, snorlax, and mewtwo on ur team there is a glich that gets u a level 600 squirtle?
u need to teach the lapras surf and go off the right side of cinibar island then you ger into a battle with a glitch, he said that it kinnda looked like a bar code then u catch it... when u pich it up from the pokemon center it will be a level 600 squirtle

Hi I was wondering 2 things

#1: Most of us know that when you find a chansey in the safari zone that you have to throw 2 rocks for a safari ball to even put the chansey in the ball, otherwise it will say the ball missed.
well I was searching in the area 2 for a tauros, I ran into a chansey, and was mashing the A button because I already had 1, and of course I accidently thew a ball. But the weird thing is that the chansey went in the ball, but not just that I caught it.
Then the very next battle I ran into another chansey, and was thinking if it would work again, and it did.
So am I incredibly lucky or is this a glitch.


#2: Does anyone know how to do the glitch where you can find wild safari pokemon outside of the safari zone,
Because I need a tauros, and I started calling it The 1% because it is a 1% chance of finding it and on the first turn it runs away and the ball never works, I have been trying for a week, and cannot get it so help plz.

[epicjirachifan]

i'm a glitch gamer and i've never heard of that one i have only heard of that kind of thing happening in superglitch.unless u r talking about red and ble coz i only play yellow. and yeah the blue ditto trick does work but it is really hard to do.

[epicjirachifan]

Thats happened to me before. i caught 3 the first one i caught and became a clefable. and the secondone got sent to the box and transformed into a missigno and the last one turned into a Q. all of these are on yellow.

[epicjirachifan]

this isn't true because the top lv in the first gen was 255. so it is impossible to get a pokemon above that lv.

I don't know the answer to #1, but #2 is easy.
1) Enter the Safari Zone.
2) Leave the Safari Zone.
3) Fly to Cinnabar Island.
4) Surf up and down the Coast where Missingno appears.
5) You should see Pokemon that normally only appear in the Safari Zone, including Tauros.
The developers forgot to code the types of Pokemon that should appear along that coast, so the game uses the type from the last area in it's memory. That's also why Missingno appears; when you talk to the old man in Viradian City the game writes over the portion of memory that normally holds the types of Pokemon that appear. Usually this portion of memory is re-written when you enter an area with new Pokemon, but Cinnabar's coast has no data resulting in weird behavior.

Here's a link that can explain it: http://www.unseen64.net/2009/02/04/p...red-blue-beta/

If you are referring to the missingno glitch, your name determines the level/pokemon type. Not your party.

As for the starmie jumping from 127 to 100, that is completely normal for above 100 level pokemon. I'm kinda surprised the game has such a smooth fail safe for that problem actually...

Yep. It probably checks your Pokemon's level every time the pokemon gains experience. If the Pokemon gains certain amount of experience, it gets to level up. If the level goes above 100, the game sets the level to 100.

Pseudocode:

If experience increases by x amount increase level by 1.
If level is greater than 100, set level to 100.

my friend knows this shiny glitch were you can send a shiny from gen 1 to gen 2.
i tried to do it my self with his gold cartridge, but i never got it. now that my red cartridge is missing, i lost my chance. i'm not sure if someone mentioned it in this thread, but i'm not going through 104 pages to see if anyone spoke of it. look it up on youtube because AGAIN I DO NOT KNOW IT!

[Felmarg]

I bought a copy of pokemon yellow on ebay and all the sprites are glitchy and it kind of takes the fun out of the game. Is their any way to fix this? I'm going to take the battery out, but it's already dead and I'm not sure a new one would fix this glitch problem. Is there any way to return the cartridge to normal?

[Balet]

I don't beleive there is any way to fix a corrupted game, no. Besides just restarting.

Is there a Consequence on the Mew Glitch? like I want get Mew for My Red Team by glitch but I'm kind of Scared of what might happen like a Glitch would destroy my Game or something, Is it safe to get Mew by glitch?

Don't worry, its safe. I've done it in several different games through both methods that I know of (Routes 7 and 24), and haven't encountered any damaging glitches. The only ones I've encountered are when I do it wrong or experiment to see what other Pokemon I get, and even then its only the game freezing.

Question: When you do the Mew glitch, does the mew inherit the IV's of the last pokemon you faught? Since the special stat of the last pokemon you encountered is the one that determines what pokemon will appear. So, potentially, after trading a shiny pokemon from Generation 2 with a special stat of 21, doing the Mew glitch by getting a ditto to transform into your shiny (well not anymore) pokemon gives the ditto exactly the same IV's as your pokemon, with 21 special. Then, Mew will appear when you complete the glitch, and if it inherits the IV's of the Ditto I killed, then that's awesome because that's a shiny Mew in generation 2.

So does the glitched pokemon inherit the IV's of the last pokemon you defeated?

[SpeedDeoxys]

The glitch helped me a lot in Blue. I got maximum money and an awesome team.

No I don't think so but then again I don't really pay any attention to IV s and EVs but I did master the stat exp system.




What in really don't get is y people just go around saying missing no trashes ur game when they haven't actually attempted it themselves and then when they do try and catch it they go for the one that crashes ur game, if u wannna catch missingno then go for the harmless one. (Special stats 182,183 and 184 in yellow.)

New question
About the old man glitch that will help me get lots of Rare Candy or Master Balls, since this one has the infamous Missingno, will that harm my Pokémon if I battle or or is there a safer way to do the Old Man Glitch to help me get more Rare Candy? What should I do if I don't want to harm my game or Pokémon that are my major team?
