Sorry for the double post but.

I BEAT THE GAME.

Managed to figure out a way to walk through walls (someone said to move the Glitchmon 2 spaces above the first Pokemon with the fifth Glitchmon) and went to the League. Instead of going into the building, I went "around" it, through a bunch of glitch tiles and eventually would up at the Indigo Plateau.

I didn't even bother fighting anyone, instead I exploited the WTW glitch and went straight to the Hall of Fame Room.

The game only acknowledged the first four Glitchmons, which were an Alakazam, an Arcanine, and two random glitch things. The game carried on as normal.

'Twas I who discovered that WTW quirk.

I've tried to use it to get through the Elite Four, but I can never manage to get by Lance for some reason. My secondary concern is that on entering my Rival's room, I'll be forced to battle with him, WTW or no WTW.

The manipulation of items to alter warps is still far more effective, if you can copy how it is done on tutorial videos.

~~~

Messing with the Day Care south of Cerulean is interesting, but most glitchmons crash the game when given.

After depositing the first Pokemon, taking it out, doing the same with the one after (which is now in the top slot), and then doing the same with the third, I walked two steps south, and back again to the Day Care man.

Suddenly, I was flown to a glitched landscape where I could only travel east. There was nothing to do there, and the game, of course, crashed after a sizable period of east-travelling.

This episode was worthless, but it illustrated to me that the Day Care may have very intriguing effects on the game. This should be investigated in a little bit more detail.  :D

The day-care stablizes any Pokemon you put into (even if those are not even Pokemon!). Is this the cause of the effects?

When you're in Lance's room, approach one of the statues in front of the door that leads to your rival's room. You should be behind him, and the battle won't be triggered. Go through the door as normal, and walk on the statues; this stops the battle with your rival from starting. Then, go into the Hall of Fame room.

Due to the shuffling of bytes presumably from changing the order of the party pokemon, which of course past the 6th slot represent other data (assuming past the 6th slot is accessible).

Two discoveries:

By switching the third Pokemon with the thirty-sixth immediately after corrupting the save, I was told that my Safari game was over. I paid to get "back" in, and swapped those two Pokemon again. This disabled the step count (500/500) and allowed me to walk around for as long as I liked.

There's good reason to think that this would work similarly with Repels and other in-game concepts founded on the step count.

More significantly, I also discovered that if there is a non-glitched Pokemon in the PC, it is perfectly possible to deposit as many glitched Pokemon as you want.

I cannot test this any further at the moment, because the map messed up after I deposited the item ????? (surfboard) into my item box. My phone's emulator was in a kind of automatic save mode at the time, so that particular file of mine is in a permanent crash state now.

Well, I got a copy of Pokemon Red from the thrift store. Sorry, save file with the level 58 Blastoise, you're going to be sacrificed…FOR SCIENCE.

I'd just like to emphasize that the glitch is considerably harder to do on R/B than on Yellow. The 2-frame pause is almost nonexistent on my copy of Red.

So I'm trying this on my (physical) Blue version. Took me about five times to get the file data is destroyed. I'm about to try again.
Okay I just tried three more times. Still no glitch. I suck at timing.

It took me a bit to finally get this to work in my physical copy of Red as well as various different ROMs. (Note this glitch works in Green and Red as well as all other foreign language versions too.) I couldn't tell you when the best time is to turn off your gameboy (or reset the game) but just keep trying it does work. I like this glitch, it's interesting to see that the save file is fine though it corrupts tons of other data instead.

I'll keep trying and hopefully get it eventually… :|

Sorry if this is kinda bumping, but I found some WEIRD effects!

First of all, I switched some random Pokemon around and got the NPCs to go random places.

Second, this happened when I switched around other Pokemon:

THEN I MADE THE WHOLE SCREEN GREEN?!

[img]http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/9121/926414b7adbd46dd9a51814.png[/img]

Then the game froze after I closed the start menu!

The game has been going /really/ slow now, like it takes 30 seconds for a word to show up.

Okay, now the "YOUR SAFARI GAME IS OVER" Thing came up, I wonder..
Oh great, glitch city.

Anyways, I reset and switched some more random Pokemon around and the "HEY WAIT DON'T GO OUT!" Message appeared and Oak just appeared for a split second and then the game locked up.

When I moonwalked (Yes, moonwalked.) Into the glitched up grass, Oak did the whole message, but it was in glitchy text.

I made the whole thing green again by switching Pokemon..

Unknown opcode, I better try again later.

More crap!

This happened, it's quite funny.

This happens just about every time the screen color changes. Not totally sure why, though.

I managed to walk around with a different color scheme once. It was pretty neat, everything was inverted.
