[@jeshirekitenkatt1212]

literally witchcraft, how the hell did people figure that out

[@SgvSth]

@@jeshirekitenkatt1212 I think someone on the Glitch City Labs figured it out. It used to just be the Glitch Dimension trick, but someone checked the code to figure out why it happened in the non-Japanese game and realized the wrong terminator was used. (The best way for me to explain it is that terminators tell the game to stop executing code at a specific point once they are reached.) In any case, once it was discovered that the wrong terminator was used, it then became a game to figure out how best to exploit it as it was manipulatable, but you had to figure out which tiles would work, which was a pain back then with less resources. Edit: Sanqui figured it out and posted it on July 10th, 2013. The ZZAZZ Glitch then contributed to it the next day and in December used it as part of a TAS run.

Wow. Another moment of "Thing I thought originated in Gen 3 actually originated in Gen 2" Just shows how much they could stuff into that Game Boy Color cart

[@petrie911]

So they made the event have about a 1/500 chance of happening and used a PRNG with only 256 states? That's quite the bizarre choice, especially since the game already has a 32-bit PRNG with 4 billion states.

[@morgan4574]

As someone actively in the crystal hacking community, yes, this is the problem. Even for situations that call for clear cut percent (out of 100) odds they instead roll a number out of 256 and apply a ratio to calculate the odds out of 100 but its obviously not able to be exact... We aren't sure why, the best guess is its easier and faster for the CPU to use 256 which is fair I guess... But I would think any gain you got from that would be wasted by having to do extra calculations after 💀

[@Sev_Henry]

Heya! Fantastic video, but I wanted to add a little something: the list showing Mystery Gift drops is either incomplete, or upon porting the games to Virtual Console the list was edited, because I somehow got an EXP. Share from Mystery Gift. I've only ever heard one other person mention this and as far as I know she and I have the only documented instances of this occurring. I'm further convinced that the Virtual Console Mystery Gift yields were updated because I have Unown Doll and Pikachu Bed on one of my gen 2 saves, which I don't believe should be possible?

[@skunkface_]

Game Freak is so confounding because they can competently program a processor-intensive action game like Pulseman or Drill Dozer, but a simple RPG is just beyond them

[@WillowEpp]

In a lot of ways, it's a different skillset. Especially on harware as anemic as a Z80, an RPG of this scale is much more about memory accounting, data structures, data layout, flag/failsafe management, etc.

[@DigiEggz]

I've made both types of games and I personally think that creating an RPG engine and mechanics is significantly more difficult, especially on a tight time frame.

[@succojones]

If anyone's wondering about the Generation 1 mons having held items, they actually store the item ID in the Pokemon's catch rate. Since every individual Pokemon stored a catch rate before Gen 3 (which is useless when the Pokemon is already caught), it's used to store held items when trading between Gen 1 and 2. Pretty nifty. Those Stadium 1 mons had the trophies of course, but also Yellow's starter Pikachu is programmed to have a Light Ball, and any wild Kadabra from Yellow has a Twisted Spoon. Any Pokemon traded to Gen 1 will also keep their current held item.

So crazy to think they used a single byte to power such poorly thought out RNG. Dealing with prng myself a bit, and always paranoid about falling for these traps, but dang, I'm impressed they did that on an N64 game and didn't expect it not to work lol.

[@retrogamer2407]

Man seeing this makes me wish someone could fix this lmao

[@GuyDude-hk8uy]

This is why it's good to have (alternative) versions of functions that take an explicit seed and return a (newSeed, randomNumber) pair. Makes testing a lot easier, rather than just having this ephemeral, implicit randomness bouncing around your program without any of the code declaring or really being aware of it. Global variables are a well-known code wart, but I see this sort of thing done all of the time and it's arguably as bad for the same sorts of reasons. As tedious as this sounds, imagine how much easier it would have been to ensure this code would have worked, when you can easily generate a huge list of potential seeds and manually (as in, not calling rand(); you'd obviously automate it) pass the parameters to the function to see if you can actually generate the full range of expected results.

[@Pacca64]

@@GuyDude-hk8uy yeah, I usually prefer to have multiple seeds. My projects on more modern engines usually have different instances of random for different purposes. My current, more assembly based project has 4 different seeds that are all longwords, and are all used for various different purposes. Might even introduce more if I ever need 5 rng calls in a row.

What was the mystery? The fact that gen 2 has decorations at all? Honestly something I completely forgot about.

Also, if you really care about people not realizing the mystery, you could add chapters to timestamp it.

[@TheDenssy]

[@00Krohnos]

I wish more people had passion for such niche collectables - I always love these videos!

[@ShiraCheshire]

This is SO interesting to me. The way the chance to give out those last items is coded perfectly fine, there should be no problem with it, but a flaw in the game's own RNG makes it so luck will never be on your side. Who could have anticipated that? Making an object that runs on specific logic and instruction produce a random number is and continues to be an extremely difficult task. I've seen so many things in games manipulated because of that, but I've never before seen a perfectly functional feature being made straight up impossible because of it.

[@EnigmaBarry]

I remember using Mystery Gift with my sister several times. I got many small dolls and two plants. My sis got a Virtual Boy, and I was thinking "what is this".

Carrie in Stadium 2 was my only way to Mystery Gift in the GSC days. Though, I remember reading in Nintendo Power or a players guide that the Pikachu Bed is obtainable from Mystery Gifting with the Pocket Pikachu virtual pets that look like the lovechild of a GBC and a Tamagotchi... Wonder if that's true or if those are bugged as well... Or if it was just plain wrong(it might have been from a Prima Guide instead of a Nintendo guide).

Unfortunately their batteries all dried up around 2008/2009, but I am pretty sure I took a picture of the 3D version of my room on my tv at one point. I might have to track that down again.
