#### Would it be possible to patch out the abnormal check?

If so, it would be cool to trade glitch Pokemon and glitch move Pokemon from gen 1 to gen 2. I don't care if it's ACE or memory editing or patching the ROM, I just think it would be cool

The abnormal check is based on typing. Using ACE, change the typing of the glitch Pokemon from gen 1 into it's corresponding hex's typing. Then try trading it over.
As for glitch moves, i'm not sure.
EDIT: Glanced in Pokecrystal. Here's what the game checks for
- Is the pokemon's level greater than 100?
- Do the two values the control the parties species match/is it an egg?
- Do they have valid typing?
AFAIK it does not check for moves

It definitely doesn't check for moves. That's why you can trade a Graveller over at lv 34, he'll
evolve and learn Rollout, and it'll be a glitch move if you trade it back.

Yep. The check is typing, level and instable hybrids. That's it :)

I put a ret right at the start of the function, the checksum fails, but otherwise I can trade whatever I want over, provided it doesn't freeze.
