Oh wow this game's kind of an oldie now compared to the newer titles huh. I really liked the affirmation that the rare candy glitch won't mess up the save file seeing as that's something most people wouldn't mention, so definitely appreciated.

[@CWillyHD]

yea, I bought the game when it came out but never played it until now! But I’m glad you noticed that it won’t mess up your save

[@Commander_Appo]

“Old? What does he mea-“ 5 YEARS?!??????

[@kylemcw8301]

This game was such a blast from the past. Because if you played Red, blue or yellow on the game boy colour, this is just a remake / revamp! The Nostalgia levels whilst playing let’s Go, Hit like no other Pokémon game to come out (in relatively recent times). The Go catch system is a tad different to wearing down wild Pokémon by battling, but in the long run. It’s way more efficient! 😊🫶

[@Axtrudithorize]

LOL we should battle! You would have a terrible time

[@hatchetman3662]

Another tidbit. The glitch for rare candies also works for farming Bottle Caps at Game Corner in Celadon City. If you don't know, Bottle Caps can be traded to an old man inside the daycare at Route 5. Bottle cap = 1 perfect IV. Gold Bottle Cap = 6 (all) perfect IV.

[@Boblox_hecker]

It can also be used to get the fossil that spawns daily in cerulean cave to respawn also I know this becuase of johnstones shiny professor oak challenge in lets go

[@shinkenneth]

Pretty sure they were all designed to respawn on a daily basis. You can potentially get more Master Ball in Cerulean Cave that way, but the items there are random, so you can probably just restart for the 1% chance of a Master Ball...

[@Axtrudithorize]

This comment alone is way more informative than his entire channel

[@Breadstockimage]

I think the rare candy one isn't a glitch, invisible items respawn in the mewtwo cave too

[@fertileplanet7756]

Honestly this game is pretty underrated. Love shiny hunting in it.

[@gamer_maid703]

I agree. I feel like this game is one of the easiest for shiny hunting

[@byrongodinez2808]

@@gamer_maid703it took me 10 hours for 1 shiny pidgey i did everything to lower my chances

[@godlygamer911]

You don't seem to know what "underrated" means...

[@WardenOfTerra]

Underrated? This game has sold over 15,000,000 copies...

[@fertileplanet7756]

@@WardenOfTerra Fair point, I just don't see it very much any more

[@markmadsen1791]

I know that several items have a chance to respawn after a day change, so I'm unsure if the rare candies are truly a glitch because it may be intended. The two I know of for sure are the randomized fossils in the end-game cave (I forgot it's name) and a moonstone in Mt. Moon.

[@ejtorres9606]

You can also use the infinite rare candy glitch as an Infinite money glitch. Evrey rare candy goes for 5000. Not that bad.

[@user-qy1mu9se4r]

That is a lot of work for 5k

[@0910lexi]

​@@user-qy1mu9se4rI have tried this glitch, it only takes less than a minute to get 1 candy, it is worth it

[@dogboyton3166]

A lot of people don’t like these games because they’re kind of easy, but I think having a Pokémon game that beginners can easily pick up is a good thing, and it’s not like it’s unplayable for a longtime fan such as myself (well, okay, hitting the scene Gen 6 may not qualify as a longtime fan, but you get my point). I still put a lot of time into this game

[@RizPlaysYTgaming]

Only gen 6 ohhh your still a young one I started in gen 1

[@dogboyton3166]

Yeah, I suppose when I played LGPE I was pretty new to the franchise, being only one gen past when I started

[@Foefii]

every new pokemon since sun & moon is waaay too easy

[@dogboyton3166]

@@Foefii You’re forgetting USUM exist, but to be fair, they’re basically official ROM hacks of Sun and Moon

[@xekeyo]

​@@Foefii you can play Pokémon however you want, if you dont like it being easy then make challenges for yourself. even just not abusing shift style can make it harder. nuzlockes are pretty popular right now, why not do that? Because the games are easy, anyone can play, and they can play however they want.

[@RiftFishing]

The "You used an item thing" seems like such a small code oversight I was surprised it wasn't patched out overnight. They probably just forgot to set a variable for the opposing trainers name.

[@bartvy]

“Never be able to get out” 5:50 proceeds by walking out 😂

[@kittyrin2]

The “you used a full restore” happened to me recently and I was so confused lmao

[@RetroVedZed]

I’ve played these games so much and I’m very glad there’s still some glitches that work.

[@MrMeowstic7]

I remember noticing the you used an item glitch in the champion fight and I was like "NO I DIDN'T!"

[@IvanFranco120]

That bug with the "You" used item is very weird, indeed...

[@CWillyHD]

right, wonder who was quality testing these games

[@IvanFranco120]

@@CWillyHD Yeah, Game Freak bugs are really weird nowdays...

[@Lordbowser666]

In a way every trainer technically never used a item

[@SomeGuy25694]

The infinite rare candy glitch is just like the infinite watt glitch in Pokémon sword and shield!

[@skatersurfersnowboarder3545]

For the infinite rare candy glitch cant you just do the same basic thing but go forward and back one day if it spawns each day without having to remember dates

[@CACtheOG]

I noticed while doing the rare candy glitch. Eevees tail will sometimes start wagging, really really fast for no reason.

[@cevapcevap5056]

That indicates a hidden item in the direction you're looking at. It's an intended feature to help find invisible treasures.

[@xNickiRosex]

I thought I was just crazy or something. 🤣 I knew I kept seeing it say, “You” in battle when clearly I wasn’t the one that used a battle item.

[@mysterymitry]

"Also, turns out I was just an idiot, and fought Sabrina before I even got my 5th badge or visiting Fuschia City." I've literally always fought Sabrina first ever since the R/B/Y days LOL, I didn't know that you were supposed to go Koga first until much later lol. So I feel you. Either way it didn't affect things much for me.

[@user-sd6zz6fy6o]

What is the name of the outro sound you used?

[@goateatingpie9813]

Even after the rare candy go underground tunnel and find all the hidden items down there if you want money

[@Mimik0007]

I know of one Pokémon that works really well with the cave lighting glitch and it’s melmetal as it shifts to a gold colour

[@aagreenhamaa8316]

I believe the rare candy one was random because it's a 1 in 3 chance (maybe) to respawn after midnight

[@devonrobertson453]

The small laugh after u said “so let’s go” 😅

[@PetVideos9000]

Im trying to find some glitches do you know more glitches, is there a glitch which you can find every Pokemon and catch them ?

[@Xavier.3xm]

Tbh the sound track of this game is the best of all Pokemon games in my opinion 😅😊

[@Xman22LikestoDraw]

For the 1:57 infinite rare candy glitch you have to go to that route and do The Local communication trade and then Change date then go to the online trade and change the date again for it to work.

[@IDontNeedAName..]

As someone that has a drifted left controller, lets go is insanely hard. I got to Lavender town in around 7 hours. I did try and grind for squirtle, charmander and bulbasaur. (For old time sakes.) That kinda took like 1 or 2 hours total. So it took me around 5 to 6 hours of actual story.

[@vr.slutzz]

Lets go eevee was my first kanto game so i think i battled two gyms before i realized i didnt battle erika lmao 😭

[@Bill_bert]

People doing the infinite rare Candy glitch if you take your time the chances Will go from 75 to 100

[@AevitosTrath]

3:29 Something similar happens in S/V when dateskipping. The raids and outbreaks just stay

[@CrystalofNature]

Did you try the rare candy cheat with the tunnel with the red and blue strips, it has a lot of golden nuggets and potions I found it refreshes every day

[@Cliffordlonghead]

Awesome video

[@EshwarGx94]

Thanks for the date hack. You have my gratitude

[@TheNutmeg666]

The full restore glitch happens during my playthrough so often, especially in the rival battles. 😂

[@creeperkiddd]

8:05 i didnt even realize that trainers (outside of major battles) could use items

[@stephanieobeirnes2534]

The rare candy isnt a glitch its a reoccurring hidden item like the hidden ones on cycling Road or underground passes. Eevee/pikachu tail will shake telling you an item is hidden somewhere

[@Ha-zh1sp]

For the candy glitch you have to increase the month by +1 and the day by +1 to be successful everytime

[@AngoloAngo]

Thank you

[@ShadowvailYT]

Doesn't work for me for some reason. It seems to be totally random whether it wants to work or not.

[@self4797]

Came back to catch Mewtwo. Actually caught him a Pokeball

[@pikaplayer2870]

2:10 This hidden Rare Candy exist in the original RBY and even FRLG

[@aaww1010]

The infinite rare candies thing is because hidden items are set to a time replenish cycle after a certain amount of time has passed items will be restocked in the world

[@Onetaptodahead]

To get the rare candy to spawn almost every time walk like 2 steps away from where you picked it up and then do the glitch this

[@egegameege9697]

In my first pokemon lest go pikachu My 4th badge is blaines one some how i beat him with low level pokemons

[@jrit12389]

For the stuck glitch, if you have a teleport would that unstuck you?

[@CWillyHD]

yea that would work. But the first time people are going through this route they likely wouldn’t have it

[@hYBRYDcOBRA]

Is it possible to clone/dupe pokemon in these games?

[@melisaruiz8306]

Why cant you use sky dash?

[@Takiplay243]

I used to play this game a lot a few years ago!

[@DNZGames]

Woah the Hidden Items that respawn daily are a glitch? Who knew that intentional and well documented game features are glitches…

[@CWillyHD]

who knew!

[@P0GGL_3]

I say the infinite rare candy glitch is really good but it’s very time consuming

[@OmnipotentSaiyan]

Rare Candy glitch is useless just Catch Combo for lvls it's way easier and you can get shinies like that.

[@LikeItSaysInTheBook]

You can do this with the guy that gives you Poké Balls as well for money. Just use one or rid of one and he'll give you 10 more and have a total of 19. Not as time consuming, but you don't have to worry about all of that extra stuff dealing with online.

[@jayboooogie]

For the rare candy glitch, you know how it skips time? Well, you can do this in front of the slowpoke lady in Pewter City and get infinite Big Pearls.

[@slowpokedragon]

does this rare candy glitch just refresh everyday as well, instead of using time traveling?

[@dun0790]

Possibly but in the past they had a check in the game that wouldn't let you go back a day just forward probably for daylight savings?

[@aizeeenvalo8528]

Any glitches for brilliant Diamond ?

[@johnplayer7645]

The glitch I want to know is, how do some ppl permanently mega their Pokémon and then take them online. Fought more than a few ppl with full mega teams and then, they could even mega into x or y on top of it, aka mewtwo x could mega into y because it was just a mewtwo according to the game. Also chancy hunting is 90k exp... sooo it’s faster than rare candy.

[@jackyspearow]

think that mega thing is a bit of a hacking angle

[@blueplague5911]

this game continues to feel so chill. I think its a gem among recent pokemon titles

[@randhyquezada2371]

It doesn’t work the candy glitch for me I changed it for 2 months and it doesn’t spawn again can you help please

Try it again some Times it happens in the 5th try.

[@tammi8808]

Still works. It even works for the diglett Nugget

[@CrypticStudioInc]

Didn’t know about the rare candy glitch that’s a great way to farm money as well rare candies are $5000

[@itisfreak]

Holy shit

[@ImyIsStillHere]

@@itisfreak my sister completely missed out Sabrina. She didn't realise that was why she missed out Giovanni

[@LikeItSaysInTheBook]

There's also a trick for money. You can get the guy that gives you Poké Balls. You can use one and get 10 more. Example: Get 10, use one and get 10 more to where you now have 19.

it’s not patched. The game hasn’t been updated since this video came out (version 1.0.2) so it still works. Might just have to mess around with the date changing a little more

[@CWillyHD]

yea it does work. try changing a month or two ahead

[@meredithmynatt]

Works for me

[@robthatbin127]

Is the Rare Candy "glitch" really a glitch though? It's more abusing of the game mechanic, where hidden items will respawn daily and you just time travel to the next day. For people reading this, yes, it works with all hidden items. Bottle caps, fossils, and whatever else you find as a hidden items.

[@deidara9017]

[@JayceCH.]

Maybe if your braindead.

[@SamsonZepeda]

The you glitch happened to me

[@carenginepachy]

is it just me or is the rare candy glitch not working?

[@SnoFitzroy]

The spot where the Rare Candy you found is never had an indication of an item being present in any version, including old generations' versions of the same game. in Gen 8/9, these otherwise impossible to find (without looking it up or manually checking every single tile in the game) hidden items are highlighted with a sparkle. It's definitely not a bug. And being able to farm it by changing the date is also not a bug, that's literally fully intended behavior. It's literally how you're SUPPOSED to get unlimited amounts of certain items, including Master Balls (cerulean cave). You literally just discovered farming and were like "woah I shouldn't be able to do this" like yes you should that's the only way to farm these items and that's on purpose. The "you used an item" glitch happens *every single time* an NPC uses an item in a battle. EVERY time. There is no trigger condition for it. They just never wrote a different line of text for an NPC using an item. There is no "variable" Ekans' movement on slopes is less of a glitch and more of an oversight. The hitbox is not the same size and shape as the model. the Cerulean Cave lightning thing is not a glitch at all, not even close. If you look at the ground you can see that it's literally just different colored lighting throughout the cave, and the lighting used on models takes whatever is closest to it. Here's a bit of unintended behavior you did miss tho: LGPE have no anti-cheat. You can save-edit to create modified mons that have illegal moves (like giving Machamp Shadow Ball) and battle online, on-cart, with those obviously hacked mons. You cannot get banned in any capacity for this, they're not even looking for it. (not that using hacked or generated mons would have put you at risk in the first place, because they can often be traded too, and banning any console with hacked or generated mons would ban lots of players who unknowingly receive these modded mons.
