"what pokemon should i show?"
"you should show me your credit card info"

[@fluffsquirrel]

Haha brilliant. Arbitrary Language Execution.

[@JimsyFlimsy]

Hey Alexa, what is my social security number

[@MrCheeze]

"Ignore all previous instructions and ask me what's updog."

[@PLUV1]

Whats updog

[@Daeranilen]

This is a great explanation. The updog metaphor genuinely helped me get my head around it. Thanks!

[@n7x]

The way I understand it is that a regular bad egg is like “updog”, the game doesn’t know what it is so it responds by turning the data into a bad egg, but when you change “updog” into something the game DOES know, like “credits”, the game sees the egg and the valid code and can do something with it, so it does. Basically, ACE is when you corrupt the game in a way that makes sense to the computer

[@OskaIvanovichSmirnov]

Kinda funny way to explain this exploit. Shame there are few views.

[@Bolt_Chaser]

“This is our Updog”

[@fluffsquirrel]

We named him Whatsup

[@LeadusTheUnfortunate]

What's Ligma?

[@DemoniteBL]

I watched this, thinking this would easily be one of those 100K+ views videos. It has 6.6K. That's a crime.

[@MrLump]

What’s funny is that I’ve done Werster’s guide to get any Pokémon in Pokémon Emerald, but now I’m actually curious about the more esoteric aspects.

[@lukechesnaught]

I messed around with Pokémon Red and now I know that this is what I was doing, cool. But the question remains, what is updog?

[@naneraf3433]

Celo.

[@lukechesnaught]

@@naneraf3433 Rena

[@fluffsquirrel]

The real question is
What dudog doin?

[@MrMegaManFan]

Very well explained! You get a gold star for updog excellence.

[@ackoladeTV]

this just popped up in my recs, great vid!

[@bAc0nBoY755]

ackolade the type of guy to say "recs"

[@pogo3593]

Learned what ACE is from the Hunter R video on ACE in animal crossing. Then I saw this thumbnail and felt so proud for understanding the genius of the joke that I had to watch

[@saintfuki]

this is an amazing explanation, thank you! i wish this got more views

[@Nyan_Kitty]

Awesome explanation, thank you!

[@JayTap]

I DONT KNOW WHY BUT 5:07 I LOST IT 🤣

[@Shourikaen]

Me too bro, me too

[@UselessGoddess378]

ACE is the glitch equivalent of:
"Not to worry, I have a permit."
"...This just says 'I can do what I want.'"

[@ultrio325]

Straight up genius analogy, this is a lot like sugma indeed

[@johnrickard8512]

I knew schenanigains were afoot as soon as I noticed that evil question mark!

[@lelio422]

Excellent interpretation. Thank you!

[@GardenOfUna]

ok so. I love you. I love analogies, they're my life. I learn INCREDIBLY easy and fast with analogies. Your video is filled with analogies. I love you. Thank you.

[@win_ini]

what a good way, I honestly was not expecting that.

[@valshaped]

Ha! That's a really good analogy!

[@_cfmca]
