Route 124 half rock [Pokémon Emerald]

This is a minor graphical glitch that is avaible in Pokémon Emerald but for some reason It's not avaible in the original R/S releases. When Emerald came out I remember a friend of mine telling me about it but apparently It's not documented anywhere (not even GCL). Apparently when they were re-building Hoenn they forgot to add a small tile on the rock on the northern part of route 124 (north-right side of the shard house).

The glitch isn't avaible in Ruby/Sapphire because there aren't any rocks over there.

I think your image needs to be edited to have something to indicate where the rock is (a line, a circle, etc). I stared at this for a solid 3 minutes before noticing the difference, since the rock is in the corner of the image in an easily missed position.

Huh! That's a good find. Nice work being the first to spot it.

If we had the old system in place, I'd move this to Approved Submissions, but it can be added right away now if you want to do that. I thought at first it could have been intentional and just the only instance of the "half-rock", but the dive tiles strongly suggest it wasn't meant to be that way.

There you go! It's on the northern right side though.

Sure thing! I'm not entirely sure whether it was intentional or not. But well, at least we have some documentation about it!
