Invalid phone numbers in Crystal (W.I.P)

Posted by: Charmy
Date: 2016-08-27 11:03:45
I wanted to do some research on glitch\invalid Pokégear phone numbers, i didn't find any threads about this so i made my own.
Modify this address to a value you want:
DC7C - DC85 =Pokégear phone numbers
Note:Hex 25 is the last valid number, being Buena.

Ok then, let's start.

Please note that some might be based on RAM data, so this might not be very accurate.

More coming soon.

- Female sign

~ - Rival name
% - Player name
Po , Ke - as in PoKéBLOCK or something like that
Pk , Mn - as in PkMn
< - Arrow (left)
> - Arrow (right not active)
|> - Arrow (right active)

$ - PokéDollar sign (that's how it's represented in the text dumps of gen 6)

And now if you say "Wrong section" or something, this IS glitch oriented, so i think it should be here.

Question. How would you obtain these glitch phone numbers? Through ACE assumably?

Possibly, the addresses are
DC7C - number 01
DC7D - number 02
DC7E - number 03
DC7F - number 04
DC80 - number 05
DC81 - number 06
DC82 - number 07
DC83 - number 08
DC84 - number 09
DC85 - number 10
I think they can be manipulated with ACE, but this list is for Crystal so it will be harder and Bag corruption might be needed.
I just modified the addresses via VBA's Memory Viewer.

Also, "1st turn: PreY" was pretty funny.

There was a video on the WyeTubz somewhere about this in G/S and he had a way to force them to call YOU. This resulted in some… odd… effects on a few. The call-force thing might be possible in Crystal too, so I'd check it out.

Also, does anyone know the addresses for G\S Pokégear phone numbers, and ones for the person calling you? I need those for my research.
For now, I know only one way to force a call with a NPC with a number hex of 26 and higher and it's going out of bounds via WTW.
Ok… more.

Charmy, sorry to point this out late but I'm afraid that this research has already been done by Yuzihax in this thread.

Pigdevil2010 also has a video compilation of the effects:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfEOPImYnpQ (in Crystal)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rR0no0_M7s (in Gold)

Some of the effects you experience may differ depending on the writable memory, however.

But… what if the glitch trainers call YOU? I don't think that was researched yet. But i need to find the address though… or wait for someone else to find it. :)
And i don't want my time to go to waste.
