R/B - Fire Spin glitch

Edit: I am editing this on August 20th, 2012 just to polish this post. I have never died at all.

To activate this glitch, you need to be in a link battle with the following Pokemon in your side:

Ditto
A Pokemon with Mirror Move

On your opponent's side, they must have:

Ditto
A Pokemon with Fire Spin
Weaker Pokemon

What you need to do, is let the enemy use Fire Spin. After that, use Mirror Move to use Fire Spin at the enemy. Let your opponent change Pokemon. If the Pokemon - they changed - faints, then the glitch will start.

Here is the video. I have made it on August 20th, 2012.

I like this, looks very promising with pictures and all. A because of the pictures, and your credibility, this is approved on spot.

Do you have to transform into the pokemon? Or can you just use Firespin.

I know you can cause this glitch if both pokemon have the same speed. They will both attack first, then one pokemon is fainted one game but not the other, so it crashes in the same way.

Either, unless if you are doing the Super Glitch from "t8.".

Because upon doing that, you don't need the link anymore, until the game locks-up.

That's…pretty awesome, actually. And one I can do myself, whenever I feel like it.

Looks like the game just throws in random crap to make up for the miscommunicated data.

I like it!
Something like this actually happened to me once, when my friend's pok?mon used an attack at about the same time i did, for some reason. In my game, his pokemon fainted. In his, my pok?mon fainted and he won. As left the battle in his game, in mine Missingno. appeared. I turned the game off immediatly.

Guess the games got a bit confused because of some sort of misconnection between them. Weird.

This comment is a bit confusing, but I'm aware of it. Gah!
