Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but a logical explanation as to why Mewtwo has an animation for Fly is very simple: Metronome already allows any Pokémon to use any move, so they had to program that in. It's just that what you're doing isn't causing Fly to be used randomly. It's deliberate. Great video!
It's also used for his Struggle animation. I was at a Tourney when the game was new and everyone had a Mewtwo and Mew on their teams which meant everyone ran our of PP and had to use Struggle.
Don't worry. The rabbit hole goes WAY deeper than this :) 8F, which was mentioned in the video, for example, completely negates the need for a Gameshark... As it has the ability to let you program your own Gameshark in the game itself.
I don't think anyone has reached the bottom of this rabbit hole that is gen 1, lol! I've seen crazy stuff with ACE before, like people programming Breakout and Centipede into Super Mario World on the SNES, so I'm sure there's endless possibilities with 8F!
@@CKLaboratories Also, in case you don't know, using a corrupted Ditto, Glitch City, and a Diglett, you can get Pokemon FF in Red/Blue without trading :)
When you said merging Pokemon together, I thought you meant the Pokemon would be made glitchy amalgamations, but then I saw that I was wrong and you made a Caterpie really swole.
'M is not the same as missingno. 'M is id no 000, while Missigno is one of the "empty" slots dispursed between the regular id no.s. They share a sprite and item duplication, but they are separate.
'M can also be aggressive to the game and wipe your save (Charizard form) or just brick the whole thing while MissingNo has no real permanent damage IIRC.
Man I remember using this glitch back in the day to teach fly to Scyther just to prove a point. Ain't nobody gonna tell me that Scyther can't learn fly.
i remember showing a friend of mine the "beat the game in 0:00" glitch and the 255 pokemon you get given. i was showing her on my gamecube gameboy adapter thing so we were playing on the tv screen. i remember i showed her healing at a pokemon center and how we watched the screen slowly become corrupt with garbage from nurse joy attempting to heal all 255 /things/ i had on me. once healed, the PA came overhead and transported me into a glitch city. because we were still very young (like 13), we flipped and turned the gamecube off lol
Glitch cities can be surreal sometimes. Safari Zone is broken, but I guess that's to be expected since this is gen 1 lol, anything is possible. Thanks for watching!
@@CKLaboratories it was super cool since i was able to pull off the glitch and show my friend and experience the weirdness with her. and no problem! nice video
Another thing I remember about this "fusion" glitch is that those fusions or hybrids also have interesting properties when its comes to leveling them up. For example, i remember how I fused Lapras with Pikachu to make an "Aquachu". Pikachu with Ice Beam and Surf, colored blue, like "Pikablue". Aquachu was locked to I believe Level 92 as max level, due to the EXP number gaining oddity. Even if I reached level 100 with rare candies, the level would revert back to 92. And same goes for Laprachu. Yellow Lapras fusion. This case goes the other way around. I believe it went as far as Level 107 instead, but I dont remember from top of my head if and how levels reset on that guy. So my bad for being little less informative, but its simply been a decade since I was messing around with these. I honestly never tried fusing 2 glitchmons together to create some form of "Pokegods". Never thought of doing that as a kid heh, only now thanks to this video.
The level-cap thing could be possible, though I have not heard of that happening before. I am aware that certain attributes of pokemon are only held on one of the two species bytes, with their EXP level (fast, slow, very slow for legendaries, etc) being one of these attributes. Perhaps if the EXP level and the EXP cap are held on two different species bytes, I think it could cause a situation like you've tried to explain. Since Lapras and Pikachu both have different growth rates for leveling, the game may think its hit the level 100 cap when it hasnt. Again, this is only speculation, but it appears like it could be plausible. Thanks a bunch for watching!
you should actually try that glitch pokemon fusion, like maybe you can get a glitch pokemon that doesnt break the game much to the point it's unplayable, then maybe put that fusion into pokemon stadium and if you dont have it just record it lol
There was a glitch where you could battle a glitch when battling another player via link cable. I encountered it only 1 time when I was younger. It was actually kinda creepy. I don't know how it happened but when attempting to battle, instead of my friend it started a glitch battle only on my end, His game didn't connect.
That sounds like it may have been some sort of hardware/connection issue with the Link Cable, kinda like what happens when you cartridge-tilt an n64 game. All kinds of weird stuff can happen in cases like that. Thank you for watching!
It also happened to me when i played with a friend. But his silver edition wasnt the true silver edition. It was a rom loaded on his cartridge. At least i think that this was the case. I couldnt fight against the friend of mine. I was only able to fight the glicht trainer. He switched his pokemon with himself. So i had to fight the trainer sprite. His HP was tripple the usual one. I couldnt defeat him. We turned our gameboys of. We never tried to repeat that fight again.
I remember being told about the cinnabar/old man/missingno stuff when I was a kid, and I abused it extensively. A couple of years ago, I read about the trainer fly glitch, which recommended using the long range trainer just outside Lavender Town. After, it said to fly to cerulean, and use a trigger on nugget bridge to initiate the encounter with the wild pokemon. It explained that you needed to have a pokemon with a certain special stat in a certain position of the party to trigger mew, specifically. It worked. I never heard about the hybrid glitch until now.
Yep! There are two trainers around Cerulean that can give a Mew, because their last pokemon will have a special stat of 21. The first is the Youngster with a Slowpoke on Route 25, and the other one is the Swimmer inside of Misty's Gym. As for the Q glitch, I wouldn't have thought it was nearly as insane if you weren't able to stabilize the hybrids and transfer them to other games. To me, that's what makes it "extra broken" lol. Thanks for watching!
I replayed Red earlier this year. I was surprised at how over leveled I was for most of the game. Then I hit the Elite Four and went from over leveled to severely under leveled. Instead of grinding and taking several more days to finish the game, I just used missingno to get more Rare Candies and finished the game the same day. I'm too old, have too many responsibilities now, to mindlessly grind levels on wild Pokemon that barely give any EXP. That was younger me's thing. Current me ain't got time for that.
@@CKLaboratories I say do the Swimmer because it means you can get Mew as early as possible. Just defeat Nugget Bridge and your rival, then catch an Abra in the grass by the side while avoiding the Trainer you need for the glitch to work. It also works in Yellow too so you don't have to look at the ugly ass original sprites.
So that's what this was. Years ago, I brought my old german Pokemon Red version to school and an older kid told me he knew of a way to get Mew, so I gave it to him and he showed us the process. Except we didn't know about the Special thing so we ended up encountering a Gengar. We thought we should have progressed further into the game.
Yea its very strange and unintuitive that the game takes data from a previous battles and uses it to spawn pokemon. That's definitely not something I would have figured out on my own lol. Thanks a bunch for watching and commenting!
I try to get to everyone that I can! I really appreciate all the positive feedback I've gotten, its given me even more motivation to continue pushing my channel further. And further we will push! Lol
I remember reading in an old videogame magazine that this glitch, along with Mew's, was the #1 responsible for the Pokemon craze that started in Japan back in the '90s. I used to think otherwise, but seeing how people from every age and walk of life can are easily enraptured by the magic of glitches and such small but interesting minor details (compared to the plot of the games in their entirety), in hindsight I believe at least a bit of this theory. (Super cool video, obviously.)
I would say that such a strange glitch could invite more popularity, but I would say it's more likely to have more of an impact on people who have already played the game. But nowadays with speedrunning and Esports getting as big as they are, I think it is something that could draw players that speedrun or glitch other games toward it. Thanks a bunch for watching and commenting!
I think the glitches really helped add to this game's popularity. They mostly weren't fatal but added a layer of mystery and intrigue, unintentionally turning the game into a sort of dark psychological thriller, better than a lot of games that try to be one. It meant there was still an unknowable amount left to explore even when you finished the game. Some were just subtle quirks that gave you the impression that something isn't quite right, like an NPC briefly appearing in an inaccessible place, or a wrong sound effect playing. The deeper you dig, the more you get to peek behind the veil and see that this universe isn't what it seems; get a glimpse into the Lovecraft horror that is its true, corrupted workings. Of course you knew it was all fiction, but as a 7-year-old - especially the kind who likes to take things apart to see how they work - it's so much more intriguing than the game would have been without any bugs. I suspect it also sparked a lot of people's interest into computer science. I also thought the badge boost bug was pretty neat. Most people would have never known, but would have been affected. The game does tell you the badges make them a little stronger, but the effect is more than intended - every time your stats change at all, the boost re-applies. So as you progress, your Pokemon are literally getting stronger than should be possible, giving the impression that the power of friendship or some such thing is helping them out.
This has been the first video about missingno I’ve seen that actually explains the data behind the encounters. Amazing vid! (Edit): sorry to those who are upset that I don’t spend all my time watching every Pokémon RUclips video out there, thanks tho :)
Thanks a bunch! If you want to experiment with it yourself - or just want to know more about it, you can find links to the Old Man Glitch and Pokemon Index Table in the description!
ISG is another fun glitch to mess with, but bomb-superslides and bombchu hovering are very strange, especially since they differ so much between OoT and MM. In MM, bombchu hovering is simple and easy compared to OoT. Ive done all sorts of stuff like Reverse Dungeon Order for MM, but in OoT I just can't get it down lol. I messed around with Reverse Bottle Adventure a lot too lol. Thanks for watching!
@@CKLaboratories I never delved into the more complicated stuff since I was like...5 when I was playing those games, but I've been super invested in watching speedrunning and OoT categories like Max% Child and 100% Source Requirement are super great showcases of just all the things you can do to destroy that game. I wish more people would talk about niche categories like that since they showcase way more glitches, routes, etc.
There's a lot of games I speedrun that I think are overlooked by a lot. Certain games like Rogue Squadron on the N64 have so many variables due to different flight patterns and ships used, but are extremely easy to learn at their core. It creates a lot of variety that I think isn't seen in many other games.
It's crazy how badly players can break these games with simple glitches. On my 3DS I used the Trainer "Fly" glitch to get a Mew using teleport very early on and playing Yellow with a Mew was awesome.
@@abadgurl2010 It can be, if you know how. The only "Compatible" Mew is the one Game Freak gave as an event. This particular Mew is marked because the "trainer" that "owned" it before giving it to you was named "GF", and had the Trainer ID of 22796. All you have to do is start a new game, name yourself "GF", and use a particular glitch to edit Mew's info so that its trainer ID matches 22796. There, now it's compatible with Pokebank. Yes people have done it, yes there are tutorials, yes I have a link if you want it.
I don't know why, but glitches in games like this always scare me a lot for some reason. Anyways, I'm surprised you don't have many subscribers though the content in the video is outstanding. I appreciate when people take the time to research stuff like this!
Some of these glitches look like they were taken from a creepypasta lol. Missingno messes up the Hall of Fame and can sometimes cause the screen to go red, and getting random textboxes when doing the Ditto glitch always feels off lol. Thanks for watching and commenting! This video has already gotten my channel a bunch of exposure and I'm gonna keep working on more commentary stuff to keep it going!
@@CKLaboratories Yup, honestly if I were just enjoying my day and getting Missingno and then the screen were to go red I would probably be traumatized, haha. I also find the entire simplicity of the older Pokémon games to also unnerve me, so I'm surprised people just go along and perform these glitches without batting an eye. (Though I'm not that experienced with using glitches to complete games, so maybe its commonplace.)
Yeah. A lot of these glitch Pokémon are incredibly creepy. Have you heard any of their cries? IIRC, they almost sound like randomized unhinged songs. I've always thought of them as terrifying eldritch creatures that nobody in-universe can even begin to understand. So to everybody else, they come up as indescribable blocks of squares. And that they're so powerful, that they break the Pokémon world just by existing.
Mewtwo having it's own fly animation is so cool. Maybe a Mewtwo with fly was going to be in some sort of Japan giveaway so they coded it into the game.
a few things. many of these are slightly more technical explanations than CK provided deriven from my understanding of this mess 1: only 2 entries are dedicated to the fossil missignos, the rest are the respective game version's regular form. also, all the misigno forms are from various slots before slot 190 (which is victreebell, gen 1/2 index numbers are based on order of implementation with missingno filling slots that were probably cut mons) 2: The water tiles right off of cinnabar are counted as Grass tiles rather than water because of the fact that their buttom left subtile is not water (iirc gen 1 tiles are divided into 4 subtiles? i forget how this works other than how these subtile's index numbers often factor into many RAM-based glitches) 3: btw, if you intend on keeping the unstable Hybrid, i'd suggest making sure the doner and recipient are in the same exp group. if you don't, things can get wierd since the Doner provides the exp cap but the recipient ends up keeping their exp group also, i see you mentioned 8F, aka the true king of the glitches. seriously, i'm pretty sure it's the most powerful form of Arbitrary Code execution within both the 8 bit and possibly exceeding everything in the 16 bit era, while being absurdly controllable as well.
1. Correct, and those Missingno can "transform" into gen 2 pokemon if moved to GSC. That's because those "unused slots" have become used in gen 2. The pokemon index table on Bulbapedia lists what monsters the Missingno will turn into based on its index value. 2. While I do not clearly remember, it is either the top-left or bottom-left 8x8 tile that the game uses to determine the properties of the whole 16x16 tile. While this works as intended 99% of the time, it does create that issue with the shore tiles. 3. This is also true. Another person who commented stated that they had odd EXP caps with unstable hybrids, and I assumed that was the reasoning for it. Its strange how some pokemon attributes are held to one species byte and not the other, with seemingly no sensible structure or reasoning. 4. Anything to do with ACE is like opening Pandora's box and finding that there's a rabbit hole inside, with infinite branching tunnels lol. Thanks a bunch for watching and commenting, it helps out the channel!
@@CKLaboratories It's either bottom left or bottom right in Red/Blue. The Old Man Glitch caused by this subtile wasn't in Red/Green (for some reason they swapped it when programming Blue, which is what Red/Blue is based off of) and they fixed it for Yellow. It also caused there to be many tiles in viridian forest's grass that are unable to generate encounters because there's a flower in that corner.
Yeah I felt like the video gave the impression that there were originally 256 species, rather than that number just being a quirk of how computers work.
9:43 That picture was lowkey terrifying... I thought honestly for a second, this Machoke held that girls bodyless spine and head in front of him for another machoke to display This is the reason you do NOT use simillar colours for BG and mainframe in cartoons/animes
Oh man, I see what you mean! Lol I felt obligated to use that picture because its one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I just can't get over Ditto's dopey face XD
In the years of Pokemon glitch video content I've watched, this is the ONLY one that explains the Cinnabar coastline tiles. Other videos just say it's glitched and to go there, but you actually explained what the problem with those tiles is and why they work like they do. Fantastic video!
At 4:30 this is slightly misleading. While it's true that it pulls from grass encounter data, it only works when there's data stored there. Which under normal circumstances wouldn't happen for long enough to be noticeable through intended gameplay. Any time you change map zones (either by entering/exiting a building via warp tile, or going to a different route via map connections) the game reloads the encounter data from ROM on the game cartridge and stores that to RAM. By default, Cinnabar Island has no data in that section so when it loads into RAM, it's loading an empty set. The glitch comes into play through two factors, the game pulls weather or not you can encounter something from the bottom right tile your character is on (player sprite is 2x2 tiles) but it pulls encounter data (which Pokémon you should encounter) from the top left I believe. So it's saying "hmm yes. You can get encounters because I see an encounter (in this case ocean) tile here. And I see a land tile here so I should load the land encounter table". Which normally, when you reach Cinnabar through travel, will be empty and not have any Pokémon to encounter. But when you fly to a city, the game doesn't reload the encounter table as you're not supposed to be able to encounter anything on land in the city anyway. But due to the way encounters are determined at that coast in particular, the game pulls from the land encounter table that's still loaded in memory and actually has entries. And the old man glitch works because the game stores the player's name in the land encounter table, assuming it'll just be reloaded anyway when you move to the next route. But flying prevents that reload, and your name typically isn't valid encounter data so the game just interprets what it gets as such anyway causing so much glitchy behavior
I remember missingnoXpert had created one of these hybrids in his “let’s glitch Pokémon yellow” series, but for some reason, when he transferred it to gen 2 and leveled it up, it got stuck in an endless loop of growing to level 255. I’ve always wondered why that was. Probably had something to do with the different exp curves for the Pokémon. I also remember he later had that gold version corrupted, but he said that he didn’t think it was due to the hybrid, but I wonder about that.
Hooooooly crap, you just brought back some _ancient_ memories! The hybrid you mentioned was the Gyarados/Arcanine one, where he tried to transfer its shininess to the Arcanine. It kept levelling up in the loop you described, hahaha.
Honestly I think that save file was probably ruined because I repeatedly interrupted saving to clone stuff, hah. Never did figure out why that level loop happened, though. I imagine it must have had something to do with the experience curves not being the same between the two Pokemon, but I never tested it any further
@@MissingnoXpert The man himself! I'm really wanting to teach any move to any Pokemon. I tried before but I'm hoping to succeed this time.. I've beaten the League, caught them all no Badges
Oh, it gets worse. Encounter a few Missingno after beating the Elite 4 and then check the "Hall of Fame" section of the PC. For some reason Missingno messes with the HoF data and fills it with all kinds of glitched-out pokemon. Sometimes the screen will even go black or red-tinted and play distorted music tracks. If thats not creepypasta material, I dont know what is LOL. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@CKLaboratories If I recall an explanation, it’s due to the Pokémon graphic decompression routine using a memory location near the Hall of Fame data location, and because MissingNo uses a random location in memory for its “sprite”, the decompressed data ends up a little bigger than the buffer for the decompression - the buffer overflows, and the decompressed data overflows into the HoF data. This video describes the process, and at 26:10 they show why Missingno’s sprite behaves the way it does. ruclips.net/video/aF1Yw_wu2cM/видео.html
8F, if I remember correctly, draws code from your inventory data. This allows you to change the outcome of using the glitch item 8F. For example with a very specific amount of very specific items, one could start a game of pong with 8F. The possibilities are endless.
I used to rom hack and experiment with Pokemon Red about 20 years ago and as you said, there are several types of Missingno and its variations like 'M. The reason why we can only encounter these glitched Pokemon and Pokemon from other places in Route 19 and 20 because those two routes doesn't have wild Pokemon that can be found on the grass so the shore sprite acts like a grass.
Yep! Those other spots aren't discussed much because it usually ends up being more convenient to travel to Cinnabar, but still useable nonetheless. Thanks for watching!
Well the shore tile acts like grass everywhere, but most places that have them also have grass, and thus have a grass encounter table assigned, which replaces the glitched one. (There might be other places that have it without grass but are impossible to reach without going through a place that has grass? I can't remember...)
Thank you very much for watching! I barely know anyone who has any knowledge of the Q glitch, so I'm happy to see that a lot of people are recognizing it and interested to hear how it works!
I remember actually encountering 4 4 Hy in the out of bounds "tree" area just after Lavender Town on the left. I encountered MissingNo. like usual in Yellow to the left of Lavender, and sometimes the games lets you walk out of bounds. I went there and out popped 4 4 Hy. I caught it and messed with it a little before restarting the game without saving. It even evolved into Q and I noticed what it was doing to my Pokemon menu. Crazy to see a video about it all these years later.
This is the one game (all three of 'em) where I can watch a video covering major exploits and get nostalgic. Everyone was just so communicative about ways to break it, even offline, and I've never seen anything quite like it with any other game.
It was enough to create the most successful video game franchise ever made, that in itself says a lot. These games truly are timeless. Thanks for watching!
It worked out kinda perfectly because it coincided with the rise of the early Internet. You had global communication and anyone could just throw up a simple site on one of the free hosts, but you didn't have Wikipedia and a decent search engine to quickly fact check, or experts who'd fully analyzed the code. You couldn't easily translate things or ask Japanese people what something meant because there was no good automatic translator, you didn't know where to find Japanese communities, and your PC couldn't render Japanese text anyway, so there was still a lot of information coming across the ocean third or fourth hand, getting corrupted in transit. You had lots of sites posting clearly fake info just for laughs. It was playground rumours but the playground covered the whole world. It was glorious. I remember reading about how the Japanese versions had cheat codes to get Mew and useful items by just going to certain menu items and pressing Select. I was so bummed they took the cool cheat codes out of the English versions. The site didn't mention that this was a glitch that corrupted a lot of other things, rather than a deliberate cheat... 😆
There's a gltichmon in the C4 slot that has higher base stats than Mega Rayquaza, which currently has the most stats of anything as of Scarlet and Violet It also turns enemy sprites into glitch spaghetti when it hits them, and enemy trainers spirtes do the same in the overworld when it levels up. So this glitchmon is sort of this eldritch God of yellow version
It should be mentioned that while MISSINGNO. can be encountered in Yellow, it’s much more unstable than its Red/Blue Counterpart during battle, often resulting in crashes. Sometimes, when encountered, it tends to have a high pitched cry that stretches for approximately 12 minutes. It’s also one of some Glitch Pokémon capable of learning Super Glitch, which is a super destructive move that can corrupt the game into an unplayable state when used. It’s recommended to save before activating Super Glitch and not after. It’s that deadly to the save. If you’re gonna try going for Yellow MISSINGNO., be advised of these cautions. Luckily it crashing at the start of battle doesn’t harm your save, but I recommend to save before fighting, as it WILL crash a lot. Both on Emulator and on Hardware. Whether that’s save states or actual saves is up to you, but Emulator is recommended.
I completely agree lol. Years back I read a YT comment that said the gen 1 games are "held together with ducktape, glass, and hope" and its surprising how accurate that statement is lol. Thanks for watching!
They're not though. When you have people picking apart an old game on hardware that was bad even for the time for almost two decades, you're gonna find a lot of glitches
@@missingno2401 I mean it's most advanced game on the original Gameboy, and they were running out of funding and time. Be grateful they even got it out
Thanks a bunch man! I've messed around with these glitches for quite a long time, but I learned a lot from making this video. My main focus was to hone my skills with the video editor so that I could make proper visual explanations. Its been quite a process but now I'm at a point where I'm comfortable with the editor, so it shouldn't be as difficult or time consuming to make future videos!
I used to shark my GBA games, but only after beating them a few times. Specifically, I gave myself an Ice Beam Pikachu as a starter just to see how far it could take me through Ruby. Never had the patience to go through some of these convoluted glitches though, but it's interesting to see a deeper level of *why* these things happen.
Oh god this remind me the time I binge watched the entire playlist of MissingNoXpert about those glitches on Pokemon Yellow and Blue. The good times...
All their videos are unlisted now, since they wanted to play it safe around COPPA. If there's any way to contact them, I hope we could convince them to unlist a few of the important ones!
Thank you for this. When Red/Blue came out back then I was 12, so in a sense, "Missingno" was one of my earliest internet exploits. I know I learned about missingno in school first, as most kids in my school were playing, and especially at my lunch table, it was nothing but link cable battles. Over the years though, I became deeply fascinated by this glitch. It was pretty much my introduction to what "unused content" was. It made me realize in hindsight that all the time i spent on gameshark with my Nintendo 64 and PSone (Back then I called it "My Sony" as a lot of people would. This was a leftover of saying things like "my Sega" and "my Nintendo") was time spent browsing all of this unused stuff as well as arbitrary code injection. That's what drew me to things like the cutting room floor, your video here, and other related things in the future. It seems every time I revist Missingno I am amazed by what else is discovered, or how many times I get the feeling "wait, theres more to this gltich?". It's as if since 12 I've never stopped learning about the programming of Red, Blue, and Yellow. Q would have scared the shit out of me as a kid.
I love the E4 military (kind of) remix you used when you started talking about '' the abomination, known as 'Q '' Was so fitting. Great content btw, keep it up !
Holy hell, how do you only have around 760 subscribers? I've always loved this type of content and have been interested in researching game glitches my whole life - And as such, I'll be sure to stick around for more! (Besides that, your whole video style is amazing on its own, keep up the great work!)
Thanks a ton! If you watch a lot of other game--based content creators on youtube that have similar styles, a lot of my inspiration comes from those channels!
Great video CK I enjoyed your explanation! Keep making more videos like these and your channel will blow up in popularity. The music of these old games is so great and nostalgic, I never see other people put these classic tunes in Pokemon RBY videos.
Nice to see someone do a good quality, non clickbait video, that takes the time to heart and reply to so many comments, keep up the great work, and thanks for the amazing video!
Thank you very much! Most of my commentary content will focus on N64 and GB games, but with many topics and other videos that don't necessarily fit that criteria. You can always find something crazy going on in the Laboratory! lol
The kinds of things you can do in the 1st gen pokemon games are absolutely insane. The reason for making this video was because the original videos on Q are about a decade old, and don't go in-depth to explain exactly why the glitch works the way it does. Q has fascinated me for a long time, but only recently was I able to learn what goes on behind the scenes to make it work the way that it does. I consider it to be one of the most game-breaking glitches ever, save for things like Arbitrary Code Execution, Stale Reference Manipulation, and the like. Thanks a bunch for watching!
Firstly, i really have to say, im glad this video has a voice over. Its hard to get invested in an explination of a glitch, when i have to read a 400 word essay every 15 seconds. Secondly, its really cool to see people still talk about glitch pokemon, even if the topic has been done so many times, over the years. It makes it really easy for younger audiences, who may never have experienced these glitches before, to get introduced, and may help inspire a new generation of glitch hunters Also, its just cool i get to be like 8000. Thats neat.
Thanks a ton! I'm always working on something for the channel lol. I have a list of more commentary videos planned, so you can definitely look forward to more of this stuff in the future!
Thank you very much, I appreciate the feedback! I've wanted to try and make sure my commentary videos start from the ground up, to help anyone who isn't too familiar with the topics understand what's happening. In doing so, I try to break everything down to its simplest form, as talking about things like memory addresses can easily get confusing.
Breaking Pokemon Red open with glitches when I was younger is one of my fondest memories. Mystery city with the safari zone, Missongno and Mew, my cartridge nuking itself after continuous glitching.... Amazing times ☺️ awesome video, I learned a lot!
13:20 wow this is such a throwback. Back in the days of GSC I remember cloning pokemon via the box was super easy in GS but the timing was a lot harder in Crystal. I kept trying to practise it on my Crystal cartridge and one time when trying to clone my lv 100 Red Gyarados while holding a lv 40 Entei in my team I somehow messed up and after restarting there wasn't an additional Gyarados but instead a shiny lv 100 Entei with the moves and stats of my Gyarados. I freaked out thinking I had broken my game and immediately released the shiny Entei lol. I hadn't glitched the save in any other way before that so to this day I wonder how the hell it happened. The game was fully functional after this too. So weird!
Theres almost always something you can mess with on the PCs in pokemon games lol. I've done some messing around with the cloning glitch myself, but not on Crystal version. I would always use it to dupe rare items since things like the evolution stones are much less common in the gen 2 games. Thanks for watching!
I practiced that glitch a lot. you had to turn off the gameboy exactly when the period of the saving message appeared. I got a flying eevee that way, but he was a dragonite in the stat screen.
I wonder what happens when you use Q to fuse 2 glitch Pokemon. Also did you know that you can stack super glitch? Since super glitch activates when you see it in the battle menu if you manage to get a pokemon with super glitch in more than one of their move slots and look at the battle menu all of them activate at once. With this you can get double, triple, and even quadruple super glitch and break the game beyond all comprehension.
you only have 279 subs?? oh boy im sure your channels gonna grow in no time. really great amount of effort on this video and it was really interesting. keep it up man youre going somewhere
Your kind words are greatly appreciated, seriously! I'm just another guy trying to carve out his own little spot of the internet haha. This video has already garnered a lot of attention and I'm absolutely elated from all the positive feedback I've gotten. I'm working on more commentary videos and hope to get myself into some sort of upload schedule in the coming future!
At the time of this comment, there are over 110,000 views and almost 400 comments...This is absolutely insane! At this rate, it would be extremely tough to respond to everyone as I normally would do, but I am taking the time to read everything! Thank you all for your support, every ounce of it is greatly appreciated! Planning and recording for future videos is going well. I have several different topics I would like to cover, not all of which are related to pokemon (but this next one is :P) I want to try making the commentary videos more of a regular thing on the channel, as well as some other stuff I have planned. Once I have solid updates to give on those things, I will be sure to let you all know! Thanks again everyone! Every view, like, subscription and comment does NOT go unnoticed!
Loved the video! Red and Blue are even more broken than I thought at first (Which is saying something, and these are the "fixed" versions compared to Red and Green) It'll be fun to see how the Cheat Code video goes with Red & Blue's spaghetti code and how it interacts with Stadium
Congratulations on your success, I have subbed also. It's not easy to get the views sometimes, I'm creating content regularly and getting next to nothing.
It's pretty crazy! The only thing about the GB games is that you can win battles easy if you're overleveled, making the glitch less rewarding. That's why I like to stabilize them and use them for Stadium, because those opponents almost always have the same levels as your team. The game itself requires a lot more strategy and understanding of the mechanics to do well. Thanks for watching!
@@CKLaboratories random question: what got u into learning about glitches in pokemon red blue and yellow? For me, it was a RUclipsr called "MissingnoXpert", his let's glitch pokemon yellow videos were awsome, and I'm also surprised how I withstood the mic quality looking back lol
Haha I've been playing Stadium 1 since I was a kid, and it's an extremely unforgiving game if you don't know what your doing. Little 10-year old me would get trashed in tournaments, so when I came back to the game (about a decade ago) I started looking for things that would give me an additional advantage. Shortly after figuring out the Trainer-Fly glitch, I found a video showing how to do the Q glitch, and I immediately started experimenting with giving all sorts of moves to different pokemon. SInce then, Ive only seen maybe one other video on Q, with no explanations as to how it worked. Thats what gave me the idea for this video before I even started the channel. So yea, I blame Stadium as the reason I started doing these glitches lol
@@CKLaboratories I've only played a little of staduim 2, and I didnt get that far, so based on what I've heard, yeah it's a hard game. That's a really interesting reason to do glitches tho! I remember at a pokemon league I used to go to, I had a level 100 venusaur from the trainer fly glitch in yellow, and challenged a person there who hadn't done any glitches. I sweep lol. That was the only time I got to battle some1 in gen 1, and it was on the virtual console. Fun times. Another random question: what was your 1st pokemon game? My dad had a phone with emulators on it and I technically started there with gold, but I feel like my real 1st pokemon game was pokemon white with tepig as my starter. Still have that emboar in pokemon home
@@Mimiyan_or_Pikapikafan I had a copy of Red as a kid, and got Blue and Yellow somewhere down the line after my Red became unplayable. Besides that, it was Stadium 1. It was a trip getting to see all 151 monsters in 3d for the first time. I only played Stadium 2 much later, and Id say its even more difficult -- even if you exclude things like the Challenge Cup (which picks a team from a random set for you to play with). After that though, I didn't mess with Pokemon much until my friend lent me a copy of Ruby, which I really liked. Then I went back to play GSC and Stadium 2. I lost a lot of my good N64 and GB stuff a few years back, but I found my old Yellow and bought a new Blue. I also needed to familiarize myself with replacing the batteries in the cartridge so that save files don't get wiped. Its especially needed for GSC because of the Real-Time-Clock the games use, as it puts more strain on the battery.
what an awesome video! very well made, I especially appreciated the visual where you moved up the data values for the mons and gave mewtwo the caterpie face and such~
im surprised the moves arent in red. back in gen 1 i taught an abra (evolved eventually to alakazam) all the punch attacks (didnt know gen 2 would give us exactly that) and when i threw them on to stadium the game accepted the pokemon however the when i would go into battle and look at the menu for the attacks they were in bright red. similar to youtube icon red.
Yep, moves that aren't in the pokemon's learnset will be discolored in Stadium, but thankfully the game doesnt prohibit you from using them in any way. They likely had to program it this way because Stadium allowed you to teach a Pikachu Surf or (if you put an absurd amount of time in) receive a Psyduck with Amnesia.
I've been wanting to make a video like this myself because there has been such a lack of easily accessible information about the glitches in these games. TheZZAZZGlitch and Evie are both amazing but their lack of voiceover makes their content more difficult to consume imo. Great job! Also, I'm pretty sure Q is actually a slowbro, not starmie
I could see that being the case, because Q does have a lot of moves that a Slowbro would have. I suppose I was speaking in a bit more of a general term there, related to the typing and not the species itself. But it definitely seems like youre right on that. Thanks for watching!
I did not know that I would find this so fascinating. 🤯 As a kid, this might have bored me, but as a big kid, I'm geeking out over it. 😁 Thanks for the video!
I'm going to need a sequel to this video. I don't care what it's about, as long as it's on Gen 1 Pokemon. This is the rabbit hole I've been waiting all my life to fall down. And I'm not stopping until I see the Queen of Hearts.
Okay, so I saw all the comments and thought, "oh hey I guess I'm lucky, I found a new up and coming creator of the kind of videos I like, and I was early lol" but then I looked at the numbers and my mind was *BLOWN* 176 subscribers!?! Well, +1 now! Excellent work, please keep it up! Also, if you don't mind me asking, where are you from? I'm assuming in the US, but I can't quite place your accent 🤔 it's really interesting though, not distracting or bad at all. It sounds decently "normal" to me as an Ohioan, but then suddenly when you say an A sound as in "grass," the form of the vowel that you choose, and that it's a bit nasally, make you have a bit of southern twang, or at least it sounds like that to me lol.
Thanks for your reply! While not giving away my exact location, Ohio isn't too far off lol, I'd be east of there. Glad you enjoy the content, I've already got more stuff in the works so you can look forward to new videos (hopefully) soon!
The numbers have jumped considerably since you posted this comment, and I'm really thankful for all the exposure its gotten! I realized I might have been a bit rude by giving an extremely vague answer to your question, but I'm one state over in the eastern side of PA! I do have a very nasally voice by default, and try to do what I can to avoid that bleeding through into my commentary videos lol. I vividly remember being very out of breath by the time I said "a patch of grass" at one part of the video, maybe that's it? Lol either way, I'm sure the nasally part does give some credit to you saying it almost sounds southern haha. Thanks again for watching!
Hello there! I've finally posted what was supposed to be the follow up to this video, you can check it out here! ruclips.net/video/1pCc7HGJisc/видео.html
Thank you very much! I do plan on having more Pokemon content, as well as a lot of other interesting stuff! I had thought about doing one for 8F, but the Time Capsule thing could be a good topic as well, thanks for your input!
It can normally learn selfdestruct! Lol I assume they realized just how powerful it would be with explosion and decided to remove it from the moveset entirely
Something fun you probably didn't know. You can get over 1000 hp on pokemon, as long as they're over lv100. Just catch any Pokemon above lvl100 with the Missingno trick, Duplicate Rare Candies with it too, level up a pokemon to anywhere between 246-249 I believe it was (its been awhile), put em in your PC and pull em out. They'll level-down, but still be over 100. Their current HP stays the same, but base HP drops, resulting in example, 249/145 (essentially a higher number than they can have). Rinse repeat, and your Pokemon's health bar in battle will look insane. But also a warning, healing the Pokemon will reset this. Neat little trick I found in my adventures
Thank you very much! My channel started as a place that I could use to upload good quality videos of my runs, but I'm currently working on expanding the channel to much more than that. I don't want to go into specifics until I have those things set up, but my goal is to focus on a variety of topics like speedruns, glitch explanation/exploration, challenge runs and more!
@@CKLaboratories I'm looking forward to seeing those goals achieved! If it's not asking too much, I enjoy commented (speed) runs since what got me into RUclips all those years ago was people doing Let's Play.
@@FernandoRafaelNogueiraReis I had a similar thought today, because Id like to make some commentary videos on some lesser-known games that I like to run. Will definitely do something like that in the future!
Specifically for a Squirtle using Flamethrower, I definitely think it'd be easier to use cheats for that. The problem is that you need to hybridize Squirtle with another pokemon that can learn Flamethrower, level it up until it learns Flamethrower, and then correct it back to a Squirtle (Or evolve Squirtle if using the other method)
I grew up playing these games and I'm just hearing about most of this now. That would explain why I was able to find missingno in Yellow version in Cerulean city, even tho I got no idea how I made it happen back then since I wasn't aware of the glitches and the Cinnabar Island one didn't even work.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but a logical explanation as to why Mewtwo has an animation for Fly is very simple: Metronome already allows any Pokémon to use any move, so they had to program that in. It's just that what you're doing isn't causing Fly to be used randomly. It's deliberate. Great video!
So pokémon with metronome HAVE to have an animation for every move in the whole game.
I did not think of that
Good job the programmers did
@@Tr0lliPop Better yet, Metronome had a tm in gen 1, and almost everything could learn it
With that being said, this means every pokemon capable of using metronome probably has an animation for FLY as well
It's also used for his Struggle animation. I was at a Tourney when the game was new and everyone had a Mewtwo and Mew on their teams which meant everyone ran our of PP and had to use Struggle.
Don't worry. The rabbit hole goes WAY deeper than this :)
8F, which was mentioned in the video, for example, completely negates the need for a Gameshark... As it has the ability to let you program your own Gameshark in the game itself.
I don't think anyone has reached the bottom of this rabbit hole that is gen 1, lol! I've seen crazy stuff with ACE before, like people programming Breakout and Centipede into Super Mario World on the SNES, so I'm sure there's endless possibilities with 8F!
@@CKLaboratories Also, in case you don't know, using a corrupted Ditto, Glitch City, and a Diglett, you can get Pokemon FF in Red/Blue without trading :)
@@elfmonster1476 I was not aware of that! By a "corrupted Ditto", are you referring to the CoolTrainer glitch?
@@CKLaboratories That I am.
If you were quick enough you could use 8F to program something into the data, switch the game, and then break *any* gameboy game with it, too.
When you said merging Pokemon together, I thought you meant the Pokemon would be made glitchy amalgamations, but then I saw that I was wrong and you made a Caterpie really swole.

i remember showing a friend of mine the "beat the game in 0:00" glitch and the 255 pokemon you get given. i was showing her on my gamecube gameboy adapter thing so we were playing on the tv screen. i remember i showed her healing at a pokemon center and how we watched the screen slowly become corrupt with garbage from nurse joy attempting to heal all 255 /things/ i had on me. once healed, the PA came overhead and transported me into a glitch city. because we were still very young (like 13), we flipped and turned the gamecube off lol
Glitch cities can be surreal sometimes. Safari Zone is broken, but I guess that's to be expected since this is gen 1 lol, anything is possible. Thanks for watching!
@@CKLaboratories it was super cool since i was able to pull off the glitch and show my friend and experience the weirdness with her. and no problem! nice video
Blursed lol
I performed this glitch the other day! I got the same result, except my game crashed rather than getting glitch city
@@whizzersbaldspot7087 i know it crashes on emulator, were you using that? or the actual yellow cartridge?
Another thing I remember about this "fusion" glitch is that those fusions or hybrids also have interesting properties when its comes to leveling them up.
For example, i remember how I fused Lapras with Pikachu to make an "Aquachu". Pikachu with Ice Beam and Surf, colored blue, like "Pikablue".
Aquachu was locked to I believe Level 92 as max level, due to the EXP number gaining oddity. Even if I reached level 100 with rare candies, the level would revert back to 92.
And same goes for Laprachu. Yellow Lapras fusion. This case goes the other way around.
I believe it went as far as Level 107 instead, but I dont remember from top of my head if and how levels reset on that guy.
So my bad for being little less informative, but its simply been a decade since I was messing around with these.
I honestly never tried fusing 2 glitchmons together to create some form of "Pokegods".
Never thought of doing that as a kid heh, only now thanks to this video.
The level-cap thing could be possible, though I have not heard of that happening before. I am aware that certain attributes of pokemon are only held on one of the two species bytes, with their EXP level (fast, slow, very slow for legendaries, etc) being one of these attributes. Perhaps if the EXP level and the EXP cap are held on two different species bytes, I think it could cause a situation like you've tried to explain. Since Lapras and Pikachu both have different growth rates for leveling, the game may think its hit the level 100 cap when it hasnt. Again, this is only speculation, but it appears like it could be plausible. Thanks a bunch for watching!
@@CKLaboratories Yep. That's precisely what I was referring too. I just didnt know in detail as its been a long time. No problem.
you should actually try that glitch pokemon fusion, like maybe you can get a glitch pokemon that doesnt break the game much to the point it's unplayable, then maybe put that fusion into pokemon stadium and if you dont have it just record it lol
i can imagine you fuse 2 glitchy messes of codes, just to get some sort of glitched spirit thing that looks like professor oak in your inventory
We need something like this in the games
Fun Fact: Using these insane glitches you can obtain all of Gen 2’s Pokémon in Gen 1, and with a bit of work you can even send them to Gen 2.
That also means that the code of the gen 1 games can be modified to have all the gen 2 pokemon included without anything breaking the game.

Hell. Someone managed to transfer a Pokémon from the Spaceworld ‘97 beta into Gen 2 through the glitches
@@borby4584 I was able to insert my magmar Pokémon card into my game boy and trade it to my red version. It was pretty cool.
There was a glitch where you could battle a glitch when battling another player via link cable. I encountered it only 1 time when I was younger. It was actually kinda creepy. I don't know how it happened but when attempting to battle, instead of my friend it started a glitch battle only on my end, His game didn't connect.
That sounds like it may have been some sort of hardware/connection issue with the Link Cable, kinda like what happens when you cartridge-tilt an n64 game. All kinds of weird stuff can happen in cases like that. Thank you for watching!
Psywave causes desync.
Who won you or your "friend"
Me and my friend would unplug our game boys at different times and that sometimes resulted in really weird battles.
It also happened to me when i played with a friend. But his silver edition wasnt the true silver edition. It was a rom loaded on his cartridge. At least i think that this was the case.
I couldnt fight against the friend of mine.
I was only able to fight the glicht trainer. He switched his pokemon with himself. So i had to fight the trainer sprite. His HP was tripple the usual one. I couldnt defeat him. We turned our gameboys of. We never tried to repeat that fight again.
I remember being told about the cinnabar/old man/missingno stuff when I was a kid, and I abused it extensively.
A couple of years ago, I read about the trainer fly glitch, which recommended using the long range trainer just outside Lavender Town. After, it said to fly to cerulean, and use a trigger on nugget bridge to initiate the encounter with the wild pokemon. It explained that you needed to have a pokemon with a certain special stat in a certain position of the party to trigger mew, specifically. It worked.
I never heard about the hybrid glitch until now.
Yep! There are two trainers around Cerulean that can give a Mew, because their last pokemon will have a special stat of 21. The first is the Youngster with a Slowpoke on Route 25, and the other one is the Swimmer inside of Misty's Gym. As for the Q glitch, I wouldn't have thought it was nearly as insane if you weren't able to stabilize the hybrids and transfer them to other games. To me, that's what makes it "extra broken" lol. Thanks for watching!
all the old mew rumors and this was the one to be true
I replayed Red earlier this year. I was surprised at how over leveled I was for most of the game. Then I hit the Elite Four and went from over leveled to severely under leveled.
Instead of grinding and taking several more days to finish the game, I just used missingno to get more Rare Candies and finished the game the same day. I'm too old, have too many responsibilities now, to mindlessly grind levels on wild Pokemon that barely give any EXP. That was younger me's thing. Current me ain't got time for that.
@@CKLaboratories I say do the Swimmer because it means you can get Mew as early as possible. Just defeat Nugget Bridge and your rival, then catch an Abra in the grass by the side while avoiding the Trainer you need for the glitch to work. It also works in Yellow too so you don't have to look at the ugly ass original sprites.
I knew about them after spending way too much time on Bulbapedia lol
The classic genre of Pokémon lore-glitch-theory discussion, deserving of study in its own right.
your either a part of this culture, or not.
So that's what this was. Years ago, I brought my old german Pokemon Red version to school and an older kid told me he knew of a way to get Mew, so I gave it to him and he showed us the process. Except we didn't know about the Special thing so we ended up encountering a Gengar. We thought we should have progressed further into the game.
Yea its very strange and unintuitive that the game takes data from a previous battles and uses it to spawn pokemon. That's definitely not something I would have figured out on my own lol. Thanks a bunch for watching and commenting!
@@CKLaboratories Love your video's man. You even respond to comments made one hour ago, and this video was made on November 1. Keep up the good work!
I try to get to everyone that I can! I really appreciate all the positive feedback I've gotten, its given me even more motivation to continue pushing my channel further. And further we will push! Lol
@@CKLaboratories Lol. You’re a funny guy. I’ll try to watch more of your videos. You gained a subscriber. :)
You’re really underrated. I’ll suggest you to my friends.
I remember reading in an old videogame magazine that this glitch, along with Mew's, was the #1 responsible for the Pokemon craze that started in Japan back in the '90s. I used to think otherwise, but seeing how people from every age and walk of life can are easily enraptured by the magic of glitches and such small but interesting minor details (compared to the plot of the games in their entirety), in hindsight I believe at least a bit of this theory. (Super cool video, obviously.)
I would say that such a strange glitch could invite more popularity, but I would say it's more likely to have more of an impact on people who have already played the game. But nowadays with speedrunning and Esports getting as big as they are, I think it is something that could draw players that speedrun or glitch other games toward it. Thanks a bunch for watching and commenting!
I think the glitches really helped add to this game's popularity. They mostly weren't fatal but added a layer of mystery and intrigue, unintentionally turning the game into a sort of dark psychological thriller, better than a lot of games that try to be one. It meant there was still an unknowable amount left to explore even when you finished the game.
Some were just subtle quirks that gave you the impression that something isn't quite right, like an NPC briefly appearing in an inaccessible place, or a wrong sound effect playing. The deeper you dig, the more you get to peek behind the veil and see that this universe isn't what it seems; get a glimpse into the Lovecraft horror that is its true, corrupted workings.
Of course you knew it was all fiction, but as a 7-year-old - especially the kind who likes to take things apart to see how they work - it's so much more intriguing than the game would have been without any bugs. I suspect it also sparked a lot of people's interest into computer science.
I also thought the badge boost bug was pretty neat. Most people would have never known, but would have been affected. The game does tell you the badges make them a little stronger, but the effect is more than intended - every time your stats change at all, the boost re-applies. So as you progress, your Pokemon are literally getting stronger than should be possible, giving the impression that the power of friendship or some such thing is helping them out.
Yhea, MissingNo and Mew made it seem that there was more to the games than there really was
This has been the first video about missingno I’ve seen that actually explains the data behind the encounters. Amazing vid!
(Edit): sorry to those who are upset that I don’t spend all my time watching every Pokémon RUclips video out there, thanks tho :)

The fly exploit is like one of the only major glitches I remember commonly using as a kid, that and ISG in OoT and Majora's Mask
ISG is another fun glitch to mess with, but bomb-superslides and bombchu hovering are very strange, especially since they differ so much between OoT and MM. In MM, bombchu hovering is simple and easy compared to OoT. Ive done all sorts of stuff like Reverse Dungeon Order for MM, but in OoT I just can't get it down lol. I messed around with Reverse Bottle Adventure a lot too lol. Thanks for watching!
@@CKLaboratories I never delved into the more complicated stuff since I was like...5 when I was playing those games, but I've been super invested in watching speedrunning and OoT categories like Max% Child and 100% Source Requirement are super great showcases of just all the things you can do to destroy that game.
I wish more people would talk about niche categories like that since they showcase way more glitches, routes, etc.
There's a lot of games I speedrun that I think are overlooked by a lot. Certain games like Rogue Squadron on the N64 have so many variables due to different flight patterns and ships used, but are extremely easy to learn at their core. It creates a lot of variety that I think isn't seen in many other games.
It's crazy how badly players can break these games with simple glitches. On my 3DS I used the Trainer "Fly" glitch to get a Mew using teleport very early on and playing Yellow with a Mew was awesome.
@Satyoshi That's super awesome! Thanks for the advice, I might try some of this if I decide to reset my gen 1 games someday!
But was the Mew compatible with Pokebank?
@@abadgurl2010
It can be, if you know how.
The only "Compatible" Mew is the one Game Freak gave as an event.
This particular Mew is marked because the "trainer" that "owned" it before giving it to you was named "GF", and had the Trainer ID of 22796.
All you have to do is start a new game, name yourself "GF", and use a particular glitch to edit Mew's info so that its trainer ID matches 22796.
There, now it's compatible with Pokebank. Yes people have done it, yes there are tutorials, yes I have a link if you want it.

Anyways, I'm surprised you don't have many subscribers though the content in the video is outstanding. I appreciate when people take the time to research stuff like this!
Some of these glitches look like they were taken from a creepypasta lol. Missingno messes up the Hall of Fame and can sometimes cause the screen to go red, and getting random textboxes when doing the Ditto glitch always feels off lol. Thanks for watching and commenting! This video has already gotten my channel a bunch of exposure and I'm gonna keep working on more commentary stuff to keep it going!
@@CKLaboratories Yup, honestly if I were just enjoying my day and getting Missingno and then the screen were to go red I would probably be traumatized, haha.
I also find the entire simplicity of the older Pokémon games to also unnerve me, so I'm surprised people just go along and perform these glitches without batting an eye. (Though I'm not that experienced with using glitches to complete games, so maybe its commonplace.)
Dude, when I was a kid glitching out games used to give me the heebie jeebies.
Yeah. A lot of these glitch Pokémon are incredibly creepy. Have you heard any of their cries? IIRC, they almost sound like randomized unhinged songs. I've always thought of them as terrifying eldritch creatures that nobody in-universe can even begin to understand. So to everybody else, they come up as indescribable blocks of squares. And that they're so powerful, that they break the Pokémon world just by existing.
@@user-jl7cz2pe6d Sounds like you've got the brain of a writer, friend, but yes!
Mewtwo having it's own fly animation is so cool. Maybe a Mewtwo with fly was going to be in some sort of Japan giveaway so they coded it into the game.
metronome/mimic into fly ?
Mimic is a near universal move in Generation 1 so every pokemon needed to have a valid animation for every move.
a few things. many of these are slightly more technical explanations than CK provided deriven from my understanding of this mess
1: only 2 entries are dedicated to the fossil missignos, the rest are the respective game version's regular form. also, all the misigno forms are from various slots before slot 190 (which is victreebell, gen 1/2 index numbers are based on order of implementation with missingno filling slots that were probably cut mons)
2: The water tiles right off of cinnabar are counted as Grass tiles rather than water because of the fact that their buttom left subtile is not water (iirc gen 1 tiles are divided into 4 subtiles? i forget how this works other than how these subtile's index numbers often factor into many RAM-based glitches)
3: btw, if you intend on keeping the unstable Hybrid, i'd suggest making sure the doner and recipient are in the same exp group. if you don't, things can get wierd since the Doner provides the exp cap but the recipient ends up keeping their exp group
also, i see you mentioned 8F, aka the true king of the glitches. seriously, i'm pretty sure it's the most powerful form of Arbitrary Code execution within both the 8 bit and possibly exceeding everything in the 16 bit era, while being absurdly controllable as well.
1. Correct, and those Missingno can "transform" into gen 2 pokemon if moved to GSC. That's because those "unused slots" have become used in gen 2. The pokemon index table on Bulbapedia lists what monsters the Missingno will turn into based on its index value.
2. While I do not clearly remember, it is either the top-left or bottom-left 8x8 tile that the game uses to determine the properties of the whole 16x16 tile. While this works as intended 99% of the time, it does create that issue with the shore tiles.
3. This is also true. Another person who commented stated that they had odd EXP caps with unstable hybrids, and I assumed that was the reasoning for it. Its strange how some pokemon attributes are held to one species byte and not the other, with seemingly no sensible structure or reasoning.
4. Anything to do with ACE is like opening Pandora's box and finding that there's a rabbit hole inside, with infinite branching tunnels lol.
Thanks a bunch for watching and commenting, it helps out the channel!
@@CKLaboratories It's either bottom left or bottom right in Red/Blue. The Old Man Glitch caused by this subtile wasn't in Red/Green (for some reason they swapped it when programming Blue, which is what Red/Blue is based off of) and they fixed it for Yellow. It also caused there to be many tiles in viridian forest's grass that are unable to generate encounters because there's a flower in that corner.
Yeah I felt like the video gave the impression that there were originally 256 species, rather than that number just being a quirk of how computers work.

In the years of Pokemon glitch video content I've watched, this is the ONLY one that explains the Cinnabar coastline tiles. Other videos just say it's glitched and to go there, but you actually explained what the problem with those tiles is and why they work like they do. Fantastic video!
At 4:30 this is slightly misleading. While it's true that it pulls from grass encounter data, it only works when there's data stored there. Which under normal circumstances wouldn't happen for long enough to be noticeable through intended gameplay. Any time you change map zones (either by entering/exiting a building via warp tile, or going to a different route via map connections) the game reloads the encounter data from ROM on the game cartridge and stores that to RAM. By default, Cinnabar Island has no data in that section so when it loads into RAM, it's loading an empty set. The glitch comes into play through two factors, the game pulls weather or not you can encounter something from the bottom right tile your character is on (player sprite is 2x2 tiles) but it pulls encounter data (which Pokémon you should encounter) from the top left I believe. So it's saying "hmm yes. You can get encounters because I see an encounter (in this case ocean) tile here. And I see a land tile here so I should load the land encounter table". Which normally, when you reach Cinnabar through travel, will be empty and not have any Pokémon to encounter. But when you fly to a city, the game doesn't reload the encounter table as you're not supposed to be able to encounter anything on land in the city anyway. But due to the way encounters are determined at that coast in particular, the game pulls from the land encounter table that's still loaded in memory and actually has entries. And the old man glitch works because the game stores the player's name in the land encounter table, assuming it'll just be reloaded anyway when you move to the next route. But flying prevents that reload, and your name typically isn't valid encounter data so the game just interprets what it gets as such anyway causing so much glitchy behavior
I remember missingnoXpert had created one of these hybrids in his “let’s glitch Pokémon yellow” series, but for some reason, when he transferred it to gen 2 and leveled it up, it got stuck in an endless loop of growing to level 255. I’ve always wondered why that was. Probably had something to do with the different exp curves for the Pokémon. I also remember he later had that gold version corrupted, but he said that he didn’t think it was due to the hybrid, but I wonder about that.
Hooooooly crap, you just brought back some _ancient_ memories! The hybrid you mentioned was the Gyarados/Arcanine one, where he tried to transfer its shininess to the Arcanine. It kept levelling up in the loop you described, hahaha.
Childhood, where did you go?
Honestly I think that save file was probably ruined because I repeatedly interrupted saving to clone stuff, hah.
Never did figure out why that level loop happened, though. I imagine it must have had something to do with the experience curves not being the same between the two Pokemon, but I never tested it any further
@@MissingnoXpert
The man himself! I'm really wanting to teach any move to any Pokemon. I tried before but I'm hoping to succeed this time.. I've beaten the League, caught them all no Badges

Perfectly balanced...as all things should be
@@CKLaboratories yep... “Perfectly” balanced
@@CKLaboratories bro I never seen anything more balanced
Missingo really does feel like an actual creepypasta
Oh, it gets worse. Encounter a few Missingno after beating the Elite 4 and then check the "Hall of Fame" section of the PC. For some reason Missingno messes with the HoF data and fills it with all kinds of glitched-out pokemon. Sometimes the screen will even go black or red-tinted and play distorted music tracks. If thats not creepypasta material, I dont know what is LOL. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@CKLaboratories thats exe material right there
More like an SCP to be more specific, but yeah.
@@CKLaboratories If I recall an explanation, it’s due to the Pokémon graphic decompression routine using a memory location near the Hall of Fame data location, and because MissingNo uses a random location in memory for its “sprite”, the decompressed data ends up a little bigger than the buffer for the decompression - the buffer overflows, and the decompressed data overflows into the HoF data.
This video describes the process, and at 26:10 they show why Missingno’s sprite behaves the way it does. ruclips.net/video/aF1Yw_wu2cM/видео.html
Pokemon gen 1 is accidentally a better creepy game than a lot of intentionally creepy games.
8F, if I remember correctly, draws code from your inventory data. This allows you to change the outcome of using the glitch item 8F. For example with a very specific amount of very specific items, one could start a game of pong with 8F. The possibilities are endless.
Exactly! I have seen some demonstrations but havent experimented with it myself yet. Though there are definitely some things Id like to try!
You can make a hex editor with 8F
I used to rom hack and experiment with Pokemon Red about 20 years ago and as you said, there are several types of Missingno and its variations like 'M. The reason why we can only encounter these glitched Pokemon and Pokemon from other places in Route 19 and 20 because those two routes doesn't have wild Pokemon that can be found on the grass so the shore sprite acts like a grass.
Yep! Those other spots aren't discussed much because it usually ends up being more convenient to travel to Cinnabar, but still useable nonetheless. Thanks for watching!
Well the shore tile acts like grass everywhere, but most places that have them also have grass, and thus have a grass encounter table assigned, which replaces the glitched one.
(There might be other places that have it without grass but are impossible to reach without going through a place that has grass? I can't remember...)

Now, this brings back memories. I remember messing around with all kind of glitches in gen 1.
Thank you very much for watching! I barely know anyone who has any knowledge of the Q glitch, so I'm happy to see that a lot of people are recognizing it and interested to hear how it works!
Very extensive and informative! Hearing about the shortcomings and oddities in the early Pokemon games is always interesting.
Good job!!
Thanks a ton for your feedback, greatly appreciated!
The shortcomings and oddities is what made these the best ones
Just wanted to say fantastic video & explanations 👍🏻 I really enjoyed this!
Thank you very much!
@@CKLaboratories can it be used in battle?
Glasscock indeed
Missingno:Finally. A worthy opponenet. Our battle will be MYTHICAL
A battle that will tear the world and reality itself asunder!
I remember actually encountering 4 4 Hy in the out of bounds "tree" area just after Lavender Town on the left. I encountered MissingNo. like usual in Yellow to the left of Lavender, and sometimes the games lets you walk out of bounds. I went there and out popped 4 4 Hy. I caught it and messed with it a little before restarting the game without saving. It even evolved into Q and I noticed what it was doing to my Pokemon menu. Crazy to see a video about it all these years later.
Picard: Dammit Q what are you up to now?!
This is the one game (all three of 'em) where I can watch a video covering major exploits and get nostalgic. Everyone was just so communicative about ways to break it, even offline, and I've never seen anything quite like it with any other game.
It was enough to create the most successful video game franchise ever made, that in itself says a lot. These games truly are timeless. Thanks for watching!
It worked out kinda perfectly because it coincided with the rise of the early Internet. You had global communication and anyone could just throw up a simple site on one of the free hosts, but you didn't have Wikipedia and a decent search engine to quickly fact check, or experts who'd fully analyzed the code. You couldn't easily translate things or ask Japanese people what something meant because there was no good automatic translator, you didn't know where to find Japanese communities, and your PC couldn't render Japanese text anyway, so there was still a lot of information coming across the ocean third or fourth hand, getting corrupted in transit. You had lots of sites posting clearly fake info just for laughs. It was playground rumours but the playground covered the whole world. It was glorious.
I remember reading about how the Japanese versions had cheat codes to get Mew and useful items by just going to certain menu items and pressing Select. I was so bummed they took the cool cheat codes out of the English versions. The site didn't mention that this was a glitch that corrupted a lot of other things, rather than a deliberate cheat... 😆
Great job, man! Interesting and entertaining video.
I really appreciate the feedback, thank you very much!
There's a gltichmon in the C4 slot that has higher base stats than Mega Rayquaza, which currently has the most stats of anything as of Scarlet and Violet
It also turns enemy sprites into glitch spaghetti when it hits them, and enemy trainers spirtes do the same in the overworld when it levels up. So this glitchmon is sort of this eldritch God of yellow version

It should be mentioned that while MISSINGNO. can be encountered in Yellow, it’s much more unstable than its Red/Blue Counterpart during battle, often resulting in crashes. Sometimes, when encountered, it tends to have a high pitched cry that stretches for approximately 12 minutes. It’s also one of some Glitch Pokémon capable of learning Super Glitch, which is a super destructive move that can corrupt the game into an unplayable state when used. It’s recommended to save before activating Super Glitch and not after. It’s that deadly to the save. If you’re gonna try going for Yellow MISSINGNO., be advised of these cautions. Luckily it crashing at the start of battle doesn’t harm your save, but I recommend to save before fighting, as it WILL crash a lot. Both on Emulator and on Hardware. Whether that’s save states or actual saves is up to you, but Emulator is recommended.
it never fails to amaze me how broken the gen 1 games are
I completely agree lol. Years back I read a YT comment that said the gen 1 games are "held together with ducktape, glass, and hope" and its surprising how accurate that statement is lol. Thanks for watching!
yea except duct tape was used 27 times beforehand, the glass is literally sand and there wasnt much hope to begin with
They're not though. When you have people picking apart an old game on hardware that was bad even for the time for almost two decades, you're gonna find a lot of glitches
@@missingno2401 I mean it's most advanced game on the original Gameboy, and they were running out of funding and time. Be grateful they even got it out

Great video I remember doing the Mew glitch as a kid but never knew exactly how it worked. This video had amazing editing also great work!
Thanks a bunch man! I've messed around with these glitches for quite a long time, but I learned a lot from making this video. My main focus was to hone my skills with the video editor so that I could make proper visual explanations. Its been quite a process but now I'm at a point where I'm comfortable with the editor, so it shouldn't be as difficult or time consuming to make future videos!
This video was so well researched and entertaining, and im appalled that your channel has only 1.12k subs. Never stop making videos!
Thank you so much!
I used to shark my GBA games, but only after beating them a few times. Specifically, I gave myself an Ice Beam Pikachu as a starter just to see how far it could take me through Ruby. Never had the patience to go through some of these convoluted glitches though, but it's interesting to see a deeper level of *why* these things happen.
Shark??? Lol
@@wegaxd yeah o.o GameShark
Oh god this remind me the time I binge watched the entire playlist of MissingNoXpert about those glitches on Pokemon Yellow and Blue. The good times...

@@amberhernandez In their community tab there's links to the original playlists in the second most recent post!
Thank you for this. When Red/Blue came out back then I was 12, so in a sense, "Missingno" was one of my earliest internet exploits. I know I learned about missingno in school first, as most kids in my school were playing, and especially at my lunch table, it was nothing but link cable battles. Over the years though, I became deeply fascinated by this glitch. It was pretty much my introduction to what "unused content" was. It made me realize in hindsight that all the time i spent on gameshark with my Nintendo 64 and PSone (Back then I called it "My Sony" as a lot of people would. This was a leftover of saying things like "my Sega" and "my Nintendo") was time spent browsing all of this unused stuff as well as arbitrary code injection. That's what drew me to things like the cutting room floor, your video here, and other related things in the future. It seems every time I revist Missingno I am amazed by what else is discovered, or how many times I get the feeling "wait, theres more to this gltich?". It's as if since 12 I've never stopped learning about the programming of Red, Blue, and Yellow. Q would have scared the shit out of me as a kid.
Q is such a powerful glitch it even broke real life and made my mom think JFK is still alive.

I love the E4 military (kind of) remix you used when you started talking about '' the abomination, known as 'Q ''
Was so fitting. Great content btw, keep it up !
Holy hell, how do you only have around 760 subscribers? I've always loved this type of content and have been interested in researching game glitches my whole life - And as such, I'll be sure to stick around for more!
(Besides that, your whole video style is amazing on its own, keep up the great work!)
Thanks a ton! If you watch a lot of other game--based content creators on youtube that have similar styles, a lot of my inspiration comes from those channels!
Great video CK I enjoyed your explanation! Keep making more videos like these and your channel will blow up in popularity. The music of these old games is so great and nostalgic, I never see other people put these classic tunes in Pokemon RBY videos.
Pokemon Stadium and Stadium 2's OSTs are some of the most underrated game music in my opinion, they're amazing remixes of the GB tunes!
Nice to see someone do a good quality, non clickbait video, that takes the time to heart and reply to so many comments, keep up the great work, and thanks for the amazing video!
Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words!
Your channel is underrated
this content is so mind blowing and i didnt even know that q existed
Thank you very much! Most of my commentary content will focus on N64 and GB games, but with many topics and other videos that don't necessarily fit that criteria. You can always find something crazy going on in the Laboratory! lol
This is one of the coolest videos I've seen in a while! I never knew about Mewtwo's Fly animation, it looks awesome
"There's also whatever this is."
That's a science man.
A "Lab" Man lol
This Video Is Really Underrated. It Taught me stuff i didn't even know could happen in games.
The kinds of things you can do in the 1st gen pokemon games are absolutely insane. The reason for making this video was because the original videos on Q are about a decade old, and don't go in-depth to explain exactly why the glitch works the way it does. Q has fascinated me for a long time, but only recently was I able to learn what goes on behind the scenes to make it work the way that it does. I consider it to be one of the most game-breaking glitches ever, save for things like Arbitrary Code Execution, Stale Reference Manipulation, and the like. Thanks a bunch for watching!
Firstly, i really have to say, im glad this video has a voice over. Its hard to get invested in an explination of a glitch, when i have to read a 400 word essay every 15 seconds.
Secondly, its really cool to see people still talk about glitch pokemon, even if the topic has been done so many times, over the years. It makes it really easy for younger audiences, who may never have experienced these glitches before, to get introduced, and may help inspire a new generation of glitch hunters
Also, its just cool i get to be like 8000. Thats neat.
Thanks a bunch for watching!
This was a great video! I went on to find more videos of yours and realized your a small video creator. I cant wait to see the next video from you.
Thanks a ton! I'm always working on something for the channel lol. I have a list of more commentary videos planned, so you can definitely look forward to more of this stuff in the future!
As others have said, you should cover 8F, and I'm also going to throw out Super Glitch and the Cooltrainer Glitch. Good vid!
2:55 I’ve always wondered why missingno would shift into those three Pokémon tin the FNF lullaby mod!
The person who made that mod did their research! Lol thanks for watching!
Love how you explain how the glitches work instead of just showing how to use them and what they do.
A very interesting video! A lot of things explained in a very simple way, well done!
Thank you very much, I appreciate the feedback! I've wanted to try and make sure my commentary videos start from the ground up, to help anyone who isn't too familiar with the topics understand what's happening. In doing so, I try to break everything down to its simplest form, as talking about things like memory addresses can easily get confusing.
Yeah those were some smooth transitions from one topic to another, I applaud you and your narrating skills!
Awesome

man, this takes me back to the days of missingnoxpert's lgpy
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Breaking Pokemon Red open with glitches when I was younger is one of my fondest memories. Mystery city with the safari zone, Missongno and Mew, my cartridge nuking itself after continuous glitching.... Amazing times ☺️ awesome video, I learned a lot!
Thanks for watching!
13:20 wow this is such a throwback. Back in the days of GSC I remember cloning pokemon via the box was super easy in GS but the timing was a lot harder in Crystal. I kept trying to practise it on my Crystal cartridge and one time when trying to clone my lv 100 Red Gyarados while holding a lv 40 Entei in my team I somehow messed up and after restarting there wasn't an additional Gyarados but instead a shiny lv 100 Entei with the moves and stats of my Gyarados. I freaked out thinking I had broken my game and immediately released the shiny Entei lol. I hadn't glitched the save in any other way before that so to this day I wonder how the hell it happened. The game was fully functional after this too. So weird!
Theres almost always something you can mess with on the PCs in pokemon games lol. I've done some messing around with the cloning glitch myself, but not on Crystal version. I would always use it to dupe rare items since things like the evolution stones are much less common in the gen 2 games. Thanks for watching!
I practiced that glitch a lot. you had to turn off the gameboy exactly when the period of the saving message appeared. I got a flying eevee that way, but he was a dragonite in the stat screen.
"We've just turned a tiny worm into a huge threat." 😂 Great video. Love the inner workings of these old games.
I wonder what happens when you use Q to fuse 2 glitch Pokemon. Also did you know that you can stack super glitch? Since super glitch activates when you see it in the battle menu if you manage to get a pokemon with super glitch in more than one of their move slots and look at the battle menu all of them activate at once. With this you can get double, triple, and even quadruple super glitch and break the game beyond all comprehension.
That's pretty interesting! There are so many ways to break the gen 1 games, its unbelievable! lol
You should make more of these videos!!! Pokémon never ceases to amaze me with its bugs.
Babe wake up more MissingNo lore just dropped
Grabbed the popcorn, someone's glitching pokemon! XD

This video has already garnered a lot of attention and I'm absolutely elated from all the positive feedback I've gotten.

I remember doing it in yellow with Q, man that was neat. And it was on virtual console
(I forgot 44HY evolved into Q lol)
It's pretty crazy! The only thing about the GB games is that you can win battles easy if you're overleveled, making the glitch less rewarding. That's why I like to stabilize them and use them for Stadium, because those opponents almost always have the same levels as your team. The game itself requires a lot more strategy and understanding of the mechanics to do well. Thanks for watching!
@@CKLaboratories random question: what got u into learning about glitches in pokemon red blue and yellow? For me, it was a RUclipsr called "MissingnoXpert", his let's glitch pokemon yellow videos were awsome, and I'm also surprised how I withstood the mic quality looking back lol
Haha I've been playing Stadium 1 since I was a kid, and it's an extremely unforgiving game if you don't know what your doing. Little 10-year old me would get trashed in tournaments, so when I came back to the game (about a decade ago) I started looking for things that would give me an additional advantage. Shortly after figuring out the Trainer-Fly glitch, I found a video showing how to do the Q glitch, and I immediately started experimenting with giving all sorts of moves to different pokemon. SInce then, Ive only seen maybe one other video on Q, with no explanations as to how it worked. Thats what gave me the idea for this video before I even started the channel. So yea, I blame Stadium as the reason I started doing these glitches lol
@@CKLaboratories I've only played a little of staduim 2, and I didnt get that far, so based on what I've heard, yeah it's a hard game. That's a really interesting reason to do glitches tho! I remember at a pokemon league I used to go to, I had a level 100 venusaur from the trainer fly glitch in yellow, and challenged a person there who hadn't done any glitches. I sweep lol. That was the only time I got to battle some1 in gen 1, and it was on the virtual console. Fun times. Another random question: what was your 1st pokemon game? My dad had a phone with emulators on it and I technically started there with gold, but I feel like my real 1st pokemon game was pokemon white with tepig as my starter. Still have that emboar in pokemon home
@@Mimiyan_or_Pikapikafan I had a copy of Red as a kid, and got Blue and Yellow somewhere down the line after my Red became unplayable. Besides that, it was Stadium 1. It was a trip getting to see all 151 monsters in 3d for the first time. I only played Stadium 2 much later, and Id say its even more difficult -- even if you exclude things like the Challenge Cup (which picks a team from a random set for you to play with). After that though, I didn't mess with Pokemon much until my friend lent me a copy of Ruby, which I really liked. Then I went back to play GSC and Stadium 2. I lost a lot of my good N64 and GB stuff a few years back, but I found my old Yellow and bought a new Blue. I also needed to familiarize myself with replacing the batteries in the cartridge so that save files don't get wiped. Its especially needed for GSC because of the Real-Time-Clock the games use, as it puts more strain on the battery.
what an awesome video! very well made, I especially appreciated the visual where you moved up the data values for the mons and gave mewtwo the caterpie face and such~

didn’t know about some of these glitches, great video
im surprised the moves arent in red. back in gen 1 i taught an abra (evolved eventually to alakazam) all the punch attacks (didnt know gen 2 would give us exactly that) and when i threw them on to stadium the game accepted the pokemon however the when i would go into battle and look at the menu for the attacks they were in bright red. similar to youtube icon red.
Yep, moves that aren't in the pokemon's learnset will be discolored in Stadium, but thankfully the game doesnt prohibit you from using them in any way. They likely had to program it this way because Stadium allowed you to teach a Pikachu Surf or (if you put an absurd amount of time in) receive a Psyduck with Amnesia.
@@CKLaboratories how do you get psyduck with amnesia?
Great analysis video! Thanks for uploading!
I wonder if anyone will ever do a video about the Glitch Pokemon with absurdly high base stat totals....
I've been wanting to make a video like this myself because there has been such a lack of easily accessible information about the glitches in these games. TheZZAZZGlitch and Evie are both amazing but their lack of voiceover makes their content more difficult to consume imo. Great job! Also, I'm pretty sure Q is actually a slowbro, not starmie
I could see that being the case, because Q does have a lot of moves that a Slowbro would have. I suppose I was speaking in a bit more of a general term there, related to the typing and not the species itself. But it definitely seems like youre right on that. Thanks for watching!

I vividly remember being very out of breath by the time I said "a patch of grass" at one part of the video, maybe that's it?

It can normally learn selfdestruct! Lol I assume they realized just how powerful it would be with explosion and decided to remove it from the moveset entirely
Something fun you probably didn't know. You can get over 1000 hp on pokemon, as long as they're over lv100. Just catch any Pokemon above lvl100 with the Missingno trick, Duplicate Rare Candies with it too, level up a pokemon to anywhere between 246-249 I believe it was (its been awhile), put em in your PC and pull em out. They'll level-down, but still be over 100. Their current HP stays the same, but base HP drops, resulting in example, 249/145 (essentially a higher number than they can have). Rinse repeat, and your Pokemon's health bar in battle will look insane. But also a warning, healing the Pokemon will reset this. Neat little trick I found in my adventures
Really good vid, never knew someone could make pokemon math so entertaining I watch it all. Good luck on the future!

Thank you very much! My channel started as a place that I could use to upload good quality videos of my runs, but I'm currently working on expanding the channel to much more than that. I don't want to go into specifics until I have those things set up, but my goal is to focus on a variety of topics like speedruns, glitch explanation/exploration, challenge runs and more!
@@CKLaboratories I'm looking forward to seeing those goals achieved! If it's not asking too much, I enjoy commented (speed) runs since what got me into RUclips all those years ago was people doing Let's Play.
@@FernandoRafaelNogueiraReis I had a similar thought today, because Id like to make some commentary videos on some lesser-known games that I like to run. Will definitely do something like that in the future!
you deserve way more then you have
Thank you very much for watching and commenting! It really helps the channel get more exposure :)
3:54 that almost sounds like an unused track which is cool
It's the rival theme slowed..
So... you can make Squirtle use Flamethrower and Mewtwo use Explosion.
It's better to use a cheat device for that, far less messy of a process.
Specifically for a Squirtle using Flamethrower, I definitely think it'd be easier to use cheats for that. The problem is that you need to hybridize Squirtle with another pokemon that can learn Flamethrower, level it up until it learns Flamethrower, and then correct it back to a Squirtle (Or evolve Squirtle if using the other method)
I grew up playing these games and I'm just hearing about most of this now. That would explain why I was able to find missingno in Yellow version in Cerulean city, even tho I got no idea how I made it happen back then since I wasn't aware of the glitches and the Cinnabar Island one didn't even work.
