Unknown English Yellow ver. Pokemon Center Glitch?

My brother's girlfriend came across a glitch while screwing around with various other glitches in an English cop of Pokemon Yellow that I've never seen any information about. Unfortunately I don't know exactly what she did before the glitch occurred, but the result was that, upon entering a Pokemon Center, she accessed what seems to be an unused map of a Pokemon Center with a much darker tileset, a different sprite for Nurse Joy, and the counter far closer to the door (so that it could be seen immediately upon entering.) As she wasn't expecting anything unusual to happen, she didn't keep track of everything she'd done with her cartridge before encountering the strange Pokemon Center, and we haven't been able to recreate the glitch so far. Tiles from the dark tileset have appeared in Glitch City and similar circumstances.

I assume she did something similar to the Dokokashira Door and rerouted where the door lead, but I'm not sure how this is accomplished in an English Yellow version, and I've never seen any record of this particular unused map before.

Has anyone else found this "dark Pokemon Center" in Yellow? More information would be appreciated, thank you. :)

As I said, we only pulled off this glitch once. There wasn't a chance to record footage of it when we first found it as no one was prepared/expecting it to happen. If we manage to recreate the glitch I'll be sure to provide a video, but at this point I'm hoping someone recognizes it by description alone.

It's possible she tried doing the Glitch City glitch inside a Pokémon Center.

That won't work. Glitch City destination depends on "last outdoor map visited" rather than "current map", so Pokemon Center Glitch City normally can't be accessed.

You can do it with proper setup - something to change D365 (D364 in Yellow) to the ID of the Pokemon Center.
