[@christopher19894]

This Mew glitch made me feel like I was in the illuminati. I'd battle someone that didn't know the trick and then bust out Mew. They'd be like "Whoaaaa. Do you have one of those GameSharks? Did you just get really lucky?!" So I'd be like "What... you haven't heard of it yet?" --"Heard of WHAT?!" ...Then I'd show them the glitch and it was like I was initiating them into an occult society. "Be careful who you share this secret wisdom with." Lol. Guaranteed friends forever. When I showed younger kids they looked at me as if I was a sorcerer putting a magic spell on the game. Pokemon was the best fad of my childhood.

[@xyzzy-dv6te]

Some Pokemon glitches seriously feel like black magic

[@rydersonthestorm7175]

I've lived your life haha I was the only kid in my school who knew about it and I used to kick everyone's ass when we'd battle using that cord. If someone could beat at least 3 of my pokemon, I would share this wisdom. Pretty funny stuff for a 10 yr old, but I told myself I was my school's real-life gym leader haha.

It's funny that this is how I really met my bestfriend and we're still friends till now for 12 years.

[@MoonShadeStuff]

[@tommoore2012]

Sounds a lot like for a long time being the only kid in school that managed to find Mewtwo. Come back to the school the next day then during lunch and recess link your gameboy with another and battle. You only managed to take down just one of their pokemon and they've defeated 5 of yours. Your classmate is gloating and laughing at you saying you have no chance and you suck and you say something along the lines of "probably, but I still have one left so we'll see." Your classmate will gloat more and a lot of your other friends and peers are watching waiting to see the thrashing to be finished in glorious fashion. Then you grin ever so slightly and toss out your final pokemon, Mewtwo. Your opponent and everyone else watching is aghast and they're all asking, "Mewtwo! I've never heard of him! Where did you find him? How did you catch him?" You keep your secret to yourself and either don't speak at all or only give very basic and non-helpful answers. The battle continues but your opponent still being a butt continues to gloat proclaiming that even with a cool pokemon you still have no chance. You stomp all of his pokemon including his Zapdos and Dragonite and win. You then battle someone else who has a Gengar claiming their ghost pokemon is exactly what's needed to takedown Mewtwo and you thrash them too. This keeps up for weeks and your the talk of the whole school until the unfortunate but inevitable day when someone else comes in that and they've added Mewtwo to their team as well. Eventually the word on how to get him spreads and while you're still the first person to get him, you're no longer the king of the playground.

[@Gaizure]

The nugget bridge Mew glitch is probably the best thing ever since you don't need to go all the way to the part where you get Fly, you can just use an Abra that has teleport. I used this glitch to get a Mew in less than two hours play time and then sent it over to a fresh Crystal playthrough lol.

[@LiatKolink]

Yeah. Back in the day I used this to get a Mew there and another in Cerulean Gym having just one badge on my hands.

[@PilliamWilliam]

Ayyyy I did the exact same thing. Turned on that crystal about 4 months ago, battery had run dry... F

[@NightmareRex420]

also can get a 2nd mew from the first trainer in the celedon gym. i was going to maby go thrugh and make a list of all the trainers glitch mon drops.

[@blainy-o93]

The best thing about that is if you growl 6 times at the Slowpoke, you can catch Mew at level 1 and instantly level it to level 100, then cheese the game with it.

You should talk about the stack buffer overflow attack used on Melee's name tag that allows Tournament 20XX Melee to run on gamecubes with just special memory in the memory card. I know a lot of people would be interested in knowing how stack buffer overflow attacks actually work.

[@MagicScrumpy]

I'm actually planning a collab video with Dan Salvato about exactly that!

[@kidpitch]

Sweet! I'm looking forward to it.

[@jongyon7192p]

[@kidpitch]

Yeah, Its real. Look here for more info: www.20xx.me/

[@jongyon7192p]

Shazambom I don't understand what it is. From what I can see, it's like lvl11 CPUs, like you're fighting 20XX opponents or something?

[@Atratzu]

"In this video I hope to have caught 3 things: the Mew, the Chansey and your interest" I wasn't expecting that line. 10/10 perfect video. haha

[@robogiraffe]

Why no mention of the experience underflow glitch? By using 6 growls on the pokemon you fight with 21 special, Mew's level will be set to 1 instead of 7. Then if Mew battles and gains less than 54 exp, it will be leveled up to 100 immediately. This is due to Mew having the medium-slow growth rate, which gives it -54 exp at level 1. The game interprets this negative number as a huge positive number and determines Mew's level is 100.

[@MagicScrumpy]

+Andrew Garvin It's a different glitch entirely. I'll eventually cover it in another video.

[@JAKESPANEDDA]

I do believe mentioning you can control the level of the Pokemon that appears is important though.

[@kryzethx]

Yeah, mentioning at least that the level of the Pokemon found can be controlled sounds pretty related to me. The experience underflow less so, but considering you can't obtain level 1 Pokemon without glitching makes it a bit related as well. Doesn't seem like enough to make an entire video about specifically

[@ninetails6218]

Chris Reyes It is when you get into the whys and hows and such.

[@justinhhhfan]

In relation to another video you posted about MissingNo, what player name would I need to choose at the beginning to assure that I encounter Mew on Cinnabar during the MissingNo Glitch? I do not understand this Hex/Decimal coding system, but in theory, the right chosen name at the beginning of the game would assure one of the encountered pokemon during that glitch would be a Mew, thanks for any help you can provide.

[@jeanloui7]

Honestly this is very interesting, but the real question that nobody answers is how on earth did someone found this glitch in the beginning? Is it by studying the code of the game? Did it happen randomly?

[@Proud_Knight]

Both are equally probable possibilities. ARGs have shown than people are willing to go above and beyond to find secrets, even in the games code. It's absolutely possible that someone was looking into how the game worked and discovered the glitch via how it functions and decided to use it and even spread it around. I also know from experience that people can just wander around in games for hours doing random stuff just to see what happens. It's actually a pastime of mine to try and find ways to reach places you are not supposed to be able to reach in Dark Souls. It's possible someone was just wandering around in Gen1 Pokemon and happened to press pause at the right time. That would be the spark of curiosity that would personally send me wondering "Hey, I'm not supposed to be able to do this, I wonder what I can do from here"

[@taxa1569]

Randomly is highly likely, my first memorable glitch experience was when GTA San Andreas released on PS2, I played a hell of a lot when somehow my ammo doubled for a whole heap of weapons I was holding and I had no idea how, that progressed into realising it has something to do with the gun range which I was messing around with at the time. After a good pile more random messing around I found out that by entering an Ammu nation gun range and immediately cancelling out of it before it brings up the first challenge. You activate the glitch. The only ammo types you can't double are grenades and heavy weapons as far as I can remember. Helped a lot when I wanted to get 100% completion (cheats gave you a negative percentage, the glitch did not)

[@laggianput]

Most likey randomly like maybe some kid or something accidentally flew away the started the battle. Makes sense

[@fleetfootgreyhound3903]

i reckon it's probably a bit of both; someone probably found out the start menu oversight (allowing you to open the menu before a trainer sees you) by accident, wondered what exactly this does to the game's code, and then either compared it to what we know of the code to work out what it could be used for or trial and error'd that shit until this trick was discovered. I know for sure the trick wasn't discovered until 2003, but i'm not sure exactly how well gen 1 was documented in 2003. we're still discovering new oddities in these games all the time; arbitrary code execution within gen 1 wasn't discovered until the early 2010s, at the earliest. :P

[@wanderingrandomer]

People who go into a game and think of how they can break it is a level of curiousity that I can only aspire to have. I never think of or notice any of this stuff on my own.

[@b4ttlemast0r]

I love these videos actually explaining the glitches in-depth! Very interesting due to how old games handle storage. Keep up the great work!

[@legionbeast]

So, interesting side effect with the missingno glitch as it allows a near exact recreation of this. -Go to the safari zone -Go into a grassy patch containing pokemon you want (chansey, tauros, etc) -Let the footstep counter run to zero so that you're pulled out of the safari zone -Fly to Cinnebar as soon as you can -Surf along the coastline like you're looking for Missingno. This will have changed the value of the shoreline tiles to match the grass patch you were last in, which in this case is somewhere in the safari zone. Thus, you can now encounter Chansey and Tauros and such but they WON'T be able to run away from you like a little bitch.

[@daijimenez]

Cool. When I'm running the footsteps to 0, do you mean in the grass patch (meaning running away from any pkm) or going to the grass patch, then leave to a different zone and run the fsc to zero?

[@legionbeast]

@@daijimenez You want to be IN a grassy patch when the counter hits zero. This is easy to do if you have two steps in the grass and just go side to side or up and down. Doing this will freeze the value at THAT patch of safari zone grass and will let you surf up and down the coast and run into the pokemon there. So my suggestion is: -go to safari zone -go as deep into the safari zone as possible for the patches containing chansey and tauros -stay in the grass and keep running the Step counter down -you can try to catch pokemon or run away, whatever you want -after the timer is up and you are kicked out, fly to cinnebar island and surf up and down the coast. Boom.

[@daijimenez]

[@nathantomsic7330]

I think I battled the elite four 60 times without stopping at a poke centre between challenges... I'll never get that time back.. I never saw a mew...

[@TheOrplaya86]

Yeah i was told i had to catch all 150 pokemon, get a machamp to lvl 100, teach it strength, wait for the USS ANN to come back which i believe occurs at 300 hours, then surf over to the red truck and use stength. Yeah and i did all this to find out its bullshit.

[@summalibertas4588]

@marcus hicks from what I remember this was for mewtwo and it works but you have to save looking in a certain direction or something before surfing, I dont remember details I just remember doing it lol

[@acomp250]

It's worth mentioning that you don't need to have HM03 (Fly) for this to work. If you catch an Abra just north of Cerulean in the grass next to the Nugget Bridge, you can use Teleport instead. This way, you can get a Mew incredibly early in the game, before even fighting Misty.

[@marieaudrey.talbot]

I can't thank you enough for this tutorial. Thank you for actually explaining why the glitch happens and how to make it happen, the map in the description is all I needed to be able to do it myself. See, I had already defeated the trainers everyone shows in the tutorials. And everyone seems to be using the same route, so I thought it just wasn't possible for me to get Mew... And I didn't want to start a new file because this one has pokémons from other versions that I exchanged and I didn't want to lose them. The route you choose in your video wouldn't work for me because I had already defeated the 1st trainer. But looking at the map, I ran all around Kanto to find a compatible trainer that I hadn't defeated yet until I found one in the water south of Pallet town. And it worked, when I saw Mew appear I was so happy! Thank you so much! Instant subscribe from me :D

[@tannerbroyles]

I remember doing this for the first time as a kid and thinking “yea right this won’t work”. Then Mew appeared and I shit my pants! Good times....

[@GuillinCorp]

Yes lol I remember my older sister had a friend who had pokemon yellow. I must have been 12 or so but I knew about this glitch and told him I could get Mew for him. He gave me his game and the next day I gave it back to him at school and everyone was flipping out, suddenly I became the cool younger brother

[@thepotato513]

You forgot to mention that the in battle attack modifier of the Pokémon you last caught (which starts at 7) determines the level of the Pokémon you catch allowing you to obtain a level 1 Pokémon and get an experience underflow that makes it level 100

[@VinceOfAllTrades]

Thanks for this! I just asked it in my comment.

[@aldrnarienby4756]

[@JustenHarper]

The production of these videos is great. I appreciate three things in particular: 1. You don't waste time ever, especially in the beginning of the video. A quick intro that tells what you're going to be going over. None of this "hey it's my birthday plz sub" nonsense. Thank you. 2. Clear, concise, well-researched explanations of the glitches. A layperson can understand what's going on. This is not an easy feat. 3. Tight editing & good production values. Your videos are well planned and executed. The sound and video quality are great and greatly help the narrative of your glitch-explanation. I wish more content makers were so sharp. A well-earned sub.

[@VenomClaus]

Okay if I'm understanding this properly I have to build up speed for 12 hours in order to QPU jump off the scuttlebug into the shadow realm and collect my mew, right?

[@ShinyHunterHunter]

only if your defacto speed is high enough, but be warned, the distance you move isn't necessarily equal to your speed

[@Unk0wnHope]

But first, we have to talk about parallel universes.

[@adlumia]

Yes, but if you're QPU misaligned, then it won't work since the scuttlebug and mew are only present in the original universe.

[@ismaelhamilton4730]

This is actually achievable in only half an A press. Check out my new video, Mew glitch in 0.5xA presses

[@Alienrun]

Then finally once you get your mew, you will acend to an alternate universe, where you have to question whether its a good idea if "Snow Halation" should exist or not!? :P

[@fuji941]

Hey scrumpy I really like these glitch in depth videos keep up the good work

[@Neogeddon]

This is pretty good, but I feel like it should have included the "Ditto glitch" extension - where after fighting a trainer (to fix the RAM values, since otherwise it won't work) you fight a wild Ditto and get it to Transform into one of your own Pokemon with a specific Special stat, thereby having complete control over what you can encounter. I believe there's also a more recent method that lets you not have to fight any Trainers at all, but I don't remember how that one works.

[@SkilledRoy]

Instead of battling a second trainer, you can use Strength and push a boulder. That will reset the first two bits, allowing you to access your start menu again. If you do that, you can then go on to battle a Ditto to set the special stat you want.

[@Neogeddon]

Wait, but... You can't use Strength without opening the start menu in the first place. Are you having a jape, m8?

[@SkilledRoy]

Frez Person Before using Strength, you need to save by switching boxes in your PC, then reload the game. Yes, you can use the PC even when dialog is disabled. This method is good if you have no extra trainers left to battle. It's best done by flying to Fuchsia City, saving there, then walking over to the Warden's house.

[@Neogeddon]

Oooh. Cool. :D

[@DrGonzo-hf4xh]

If you have no trainer to battle left, you can either use strength on a boulder, battle the Elite 4, or talk to the guy in pewter city that shows you around. You have to save through a PC (switching boxes) first though (and reset the game afterwards), to be able to talk to the guy or to use strength. Easiest way is to talk to the guy in pewter city imo.

[@Ultizeta]

[@jeffreycanfield1939]

I assume your asking about what Scykoh did in his glitch play through. It's essentially the same thing, but a couple more glitches had to be done. Scykoh even explains it in the video.

[@xpanserbjorne]

Scykoh is such a good channel. This series remained me of his stuff

[@BillehBobJoe]

its 11 months later but he did exp underflow, and the nidoking before brock is actually the exact same glitch as the mew glitch in every way, including long range trainer, regaining proper control, fighting a Pokemon with a specific special stat, and then executing the exp underflow glitch much like you would fighting mew so its the sort of "proof" that the glitch can be used for any pokemon

[@erike5865]

Does catching missing no this way still give you 128 of whatever is in your sixth slot, just like the old man glitch?

[@MagicScrumpy]

Yes

[@cancer5219]

Watch his missing.no video

[@SkilledRoy]

This glitch also can be used to duplicate items in Yellow, since the old man glitch only works in Red and Blue.

[@ccandrew111]

it most definitely will. the item duplication occurs because of the game writing the 'seen' bit for MissigNo. in the pokedex. because there are only meant to be 150 pokedex entries, the value that is set will be outside of the pokedex in memory. it just happens to be the bit for the amount of items in your 6th inventory slot, and will add 128 due to it being the most significant bit.

One thing I may suggest is posting a video kinda going over the basics of codes and stuff. If it weren't for me installing some of your Melee mods, I would have had no idea how this all worked.

Hey Scrumpy, first off thank you so much for showing how this glitch is done and the map to show us where we can get the Pokemon we need! I've tried looking for that map years ago as a Youngerster (pun intended ;) )but never found it so I'm finally relieved so see it now! My only question is that can we use the same Gambler as you did to catch different Pokemon over and over again? Like use him as the dummy to fly away and fight the different trainer to get the Pokemon we want? Thanks so much! :D

I'm surprised how you didn't touch on the fact that the value for the attack stat modifier is also used for the wild Pokemon's level, which means that using Growl 6 times on the Pokemon you're using to pick the Mew Glitch Pokemon will make said Mew Glitch Pokemon Level 1, and stuff like that.

[@redtaileddolphin1875]

The "caught three things" joke was so obvious, yet still so good. Also, what determines the pokemon's level when it appears? I'd assume the DVs are called randomly but how is the level determined?

[@SkilledRoy]

That's mentioned in the video, the level is determined by the attack stat modifier. Defaults to 7, but is increased/decreased by up to 6 by moves like Growl and Swords Dance.

[@humongofrog]

The level is determined by how many times you lowered (or raised) the attack that of the pokemon you fought to make mew appear, the lowest being one (6 stages lowered), and the highest being 13 (6 stages raised).

[@redtaileddolphin1875]

Frick thanks guys

[@PrincessAquos]

There's a particularly great glitch involving level 1 Pokemon acquired from this glitch. You see, they never intended you to get a Level 1 Pokemon - This was before breeding, and the lowest level Pokemon on the first route are level 2. As such, level 1 Pokemon have a negative amount of experience, or something of the sort. I don't know exactly why, but if a level 1 Pokemon gets less experience than they need to level up, the game all of a sudden thinks they have a lot of experience, and makes them level 100 instantly.

[@TaismoFanBoy]

It's because it reads a negative integer as an unsigned integer. 11110 as a negative, reads -1. 11110 as an unsigned reads 30. The more 1s you add, the worse it gets. This glitch only works with slower experience curves though, because the faster experience curves don't start you negative in level 1 (happy accident. The curves were made intending level 2 to be the start, but the faster ones coincidentally are fast enough to not be negative at level 1). Scrumpy could probably elaborate better later on.

[@requiom3361]

I like this series, keep it up Scrumpy!

[@DarkAngelEU]

This is smth I always wanted to know. Thanks for actually explaining the glitch and not just showing us again what we have to do just to get the glitch.

[@the1whoplayz]

Hey magicscrumpy, while you are making these videos, do you still take suggestions for melee?

[@MagicScrumpy]

I'm still saving good suggestions. I just haven't made any Melee videos recently because I'm burned out and need a break.

[@user-wm7mk2nt4d]

What if Mewtwo had the Shine?

[@redrider578]

Liked only because of the interest joke, oh... and the content

[@redphoenix2m101]

Your channel is amazing you are one of the best glitch channels if not the BEST !

[@mycophil]

This is so awesome dude! I've always wanted to fully complete the pokédex... And now I can!!! I'm playing on my old Gold cartridge, just got a copy of Crystal that I refurbished and I'm borrowing my friend's Yellow - going down memory lane! :D

[@sirhandsome8070]

What if Mew had Captain Foxigi Spacie's Kneeshinedash?

[@TheTintedHalo]

I did something akin to this in my Pokemon Yellow on 3DS using the Pokemon Mansion Ditto, allowing to get the skeleton sprites for kabutops and aerodactyl, giving 255 of whatever item is in slot 6. Hopefully in sun and moon they make it so you can transfer from those 3DS releases they made so I can see what happens trying to move those mons, and hopefully trade over my unlimited master balls.

[@TheTintedHalo]

*128, sorry, haven't done the glitch in a while.

[@EpicOdysseus]

You can't give items in Gen I, so you wouldn't be able to give Master Balls.

[@PikaChu-qv4lz]

Mew will end up not being transferred and mess up

[@likeanshadow4610]

Pika Chu You can transfer Mews...

[@stompingpeak2043]

Crystal Kanashii yea you can get new on the 3ds version. I've done it...

[@Landon783]

I knew that ending was gonna be good. Well done and thanks for showing us the dex entry for missing no. :D

[@Simikins]

These videos make me feel like I know how old games work. Loving it. Something something write code in your name something something

[@laptopmonkey4157]

can you make a video about the celebi glitch in the gen 2 games?

[@laptopmonkey4157]

It is. But it is also awesome. People who still have the games or the emulators can get celebi because of the glitch. And there are not so many tutorials about how to get it

[@PhoenixClank]

Watch Scykoh's tutorial. I bet you can easily follow it ; )

[@laptopmonkey4157]

Ｆｅｌｉｘ Ｋｌｅｎｋ a + start also made a video about it

[@PhoenixClank]

I know.

[@ichigoapanchal9935]

well just get a Japaneses rom and trad it back to your game ._.

[@wfow1448]

Does catching MissingNo that way corrupt your game the same as using the Old Man glitch? Also, smooth catching MissingNo like that! Awesome!

[@xyzzy-dv6te]

@John M. Boger Missingno and 'M both dupe the 6th item slot. 'M evolves into Kangaskhan at an insane level, Missingno doesn't evolve. Missingno's normal form is safe in RB (apart from corrupting hall of fame data), but VERY DANGEROUS in Y (can crash your game, corrupt save and if it doesn't crash, it plays a very long and creepy cry). Missingno also has ghost and fossil forms which are safe in Yellow.

[@SSJSonikku]

These Glitch explaination videos are awesome! I've done this glitch many times, but seeing the logic behind it is great. I'm wondering if you'll do a video explaining the glitch items 8F or WS M (in pokemon yellow), and explain Arbitrary Code Execution?

[@JJcx82]

Great video. Not sure if you mentioned it, but when you battle a trainer like the youngster with the slowpoke to manipulate what Pokémon you can catch, you don't necessarily have to win the battle. If you lose the battle you can still catch mew, but you leave the trainer open to being battled again so you can repeat the glitch with the same trainer.

[@enen5007]

Hey Scrumpy, can you make a 'Glitch in Depth' about the Minus Worlds in Super Mario Bros. - NES?

[@TheHollowSaturn]

Good Idea

[@UnknownFortune]

I second this!

[@MagicScrumpy]

Sure thing!

[@enen5007]

MagicScrumpy Wow, thanks!

[@fortunegaming1583]

I'm excited for this!

[@marowakcity8578]

you didn't talk about using growl to lower the pokemon's level

[@Double-Negative]

There is 1 side effect. encountering a mew counts as a stationary legendary battle too. Encountering it with a value other than 0 in the text ID can reset a missable flag. this can cause an item, legendary bird, or something else to disappear from the route.

[@collinschubert6940]

This is awesome how in depth u are with things like this. Very informative and weather or not ur into the game (which I am) it is very entertaining.

[@oussama7132]

In-depth video of Ocarina of time Bug bottle glitch!

[@jongyon7192p]

The bottle stuff in OoT and MM are so weird. Bottle duping, items on B, items deleted in the menu, but still there in the c-items, items swapped but change back 3 seconds later because of 0th day, holding a bottle in hand does some weird stuff, the entirety of Stick Crap. It's really hard to follow...

[@Sauraen]

RBA itself is relatively easy to understand. Four bytes corresponding to the items on B, C. Next three bytes saying which slot in your inventory the C button items are equipped from. Say you catch a fish in a bottle you have equipped to C is. So by changing what item you have on C>, you can get it to write bottle-of-fish to many different slots in your inventory, including to slots which store your quest progress (Medallions, etc.). And by changing what you catch in the bottle, you can write different values to those addresses.

[@JSledge825]

I just kept doing the Cerulean Bridge glitch a whole bunch of times and got 6 Mews.

[@AkaiAzul]

By losing to them and never beating Misty. Edit: make sure to lose to them after they throw out their last Pokémon.

[@sydneynichols7562]

You have no idea how long I have been looking for material covering these exact subjects. Ever since I’ve learned these glitches when I was younger, I always wanted to know exactly what was happening in the computer part of the game and how all of that works. I know it is read in C++, which is considered a super primitive form of code now. But I had never encountered such material before and grew frustrated. You did an absolutely wonderful job explaining everything, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS NERDY GIRLS’ DAY❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@clehaxze]

I love this series. Keep them coming.

[@SonicTheCutehog]

Don't you mean to "Exeggcute" this glitch?

[@imsomeone2369]

The Cutehog Team -_-

[@thetaylors4348]

I'm just snorlaxing around

[@rachelrpl]

Ba dum tss

[@Sarah-nt4lw]

Don't you mean 'Eggxecute'? ;)

[@sherlockowiec1693]

@Bill The Bull Gates You mean "mewtwo" :)

[@SupLuiKir]

Do arbitrary code execution next!

[@farquaadsquaad8163]

yes super mario TASing

[@flarmie]

he already did one on zelda it explained it well, what he should explain in that regard is SMW's ACE, since zelda's was a lot simpler

[@muizzsiddique]

MissingnoXpert

[@RaesaK]

I love this series, keep it up Scrumpy! Can I suggest explaining the Sketch glitch from FFVI in one of the next videos?

[@BryanMotives]

Great video dude, love your content honestly

[@KeinNiemand]

The Gambler on rout 8 isn't the earlyest trainer you can use for that glitch I used a long range trainer on route 24 and an teleport from an abra to do this glich much earlyer in the game Also you can battle a wild pokemon(after you battled a trainer) and the special stat of the pokemon you last encounterd determens the pokemon you will see you can also fight against a wild ditto after fighting a trainer ditto to use whatever special stat your pokemon has

[@MapCRimSoNCobRa117]

You should have also added that changing the stages of the attack stat affects the Level of the pokemon found when returning to the original route. a pokemon with no stat changes will be level 7, and a pokemon with -6 attack, or in otherwords, affected with 6 growls, will be level 1. likewise any pokemon with +6 attack will be level 13, however ive never encountered an opponent using 6 sharpen or 3 swords dance while performing the Trainer fly glitch, but it should result in that.

[@g1ngrrrawr]

Yo this shit is super awesome. Love all the content you put out, by far my favorite channel

[@OrigamiAhsoka]

Note that because it’s based on the special of the last Pokémon you fought, if you fight a ditto and have it transform into one of *your* Pokémon, that Pokémon’s special stat will be used. This lets you manipulate it even more

[@PaintballWillis]

Here's my question; why is Mew even in the game? Why does it have a number if it was never meant to be seen in the game at all?

[@drsalt328]

HxC Underground I heard that a programmer put Mew in last minute. Plus Mew was an event Pokémon of K am correct from some giveaways is what it said on Bulbapedia. Also Missingno was 39 missing Pokémon who when sent to Gen 2 all become Johto Pokémon too which I feel related for some reason

[@roguevet7333]

Cristiano Euronaldo I agreed with you

[@ZenoDovahkiin]

It's a giveaway. It wouldn't have been possible to receive Mew as an event Pokémon if your game didn't know what a Mew was.

[@xyzzy-dv6te]

he was given away in events a long time ago

[@okey7281]

red is the only trainer I know who can fly around Kanto for 12 hours

[@Tanks.With.Teeth.Malloy]

This has to be one of my favorite glitch videos ever. +1 sub :)

[@Fsilone]

You can also do the glitch without battling another trainer if you Fly to Fuchsia, save your game by changing PC boxes and resetting (which re-opens your start menu because the game no longer thinks you're engaged, but is still trying to move an NPC), then go next door to the Safari Zone warden's house and use Strength on the boulder. Then you can use the Ditto method with a Pokemon of your own with a Special of 21, or battle any wild Pokemon and see what pops up. I believe the wild Drowzee on Route 11 sometimes have a Special of 21, but I'm not sure, nor at which of the levels they appear at.

[@therealautman416]

There's a glitch I found by accident that makes one of the vendors in the department store sell his items for free. For some reason, he also sold Master Balls for free. I have no idea how I did, and I haven't been able to repeat it since. Any ideas?

[@kylefluharty5565]

Ryan McMillin very late response, but in case you're still wondering, I think you might have accidentally executed this glitch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaXOoodspLBogas

[@qwerty6699]

how did people find this out is still a mystery to me

[@bennybos5733]

That was always my question,who was the first person that's crazy

[@steellegion1490]

Just using the code

[@cosplayeranime]

Good vids, Scrumpy. Keep the good work.

[@josemiro7304]

So clever. This brings back so many great memories from 20 years ago. Thank you for giving an explanation to this infamous mystery.

[@RmnGnzlz]

Wouldn't it be easier to just get the on inside the truck?

[@SophiaLilithUwU]

1. No You can get Mew way before that. 2. There is no Mew under the truck. 3. Please tell me you're trolling.

[@ProtoPropski]

Nice Finally My Life Has Meaning I Can Now Truly Catch Them All, But Why Won't Prof Oak Talk To Me Anymore.... is he not pleased with what he has created, is he not pleased in what I've become... I no longer have the will to answer it myself for I fear what I might learn, no, no, for what I am, a monster *looks at hands in agony* it can't be

[@ninjaisastreamsniper429]

lmao

[@meyers323]

Thanks for making this, inspired my newest playthrough of the classics prior to the new gen.

[@jonnylu_]

Scrumpy has become the Stryder7x for pokemon glitches- calming voice with nice in-depth analysis of actual game code :) ty scrumps

[@Lugmillord]

I wonder how this was found in the first place.

[@torifort717]

A nerd with WAY too much time on their hands breaking apart the code.

[@Lugmillord]

Akaba Senju It was discovered way before people knew how to access the code

[@torifort717]

***** Yep. But what I say still stands. If you understand how games of the era were coded, you could figure it out through trial and error.

[@thomaspickin9376]

There were Gameboy emulators around in 1995/1996 when this game came out, so I think some people did know how to access the code... Accessing the code isn't that hard if you know anything about electrical engineering. It's just a ROM chip inside a cartridge, so you just rip the data from that. There were also cheat cartidges around then to mess around with memory. A glitch isn't found all at once anyway, usually something breaks and then you go back and figure out why by trial and error and possibly examining the code. This was also probably found by many people contributing. It's a long process for something useful to be found.

[@DastardlyGamer]

Nooo! Why did you have to spoil it all by catching that hideous glitchy monster at the end? That thing still gives me nightmares haha

[@will000748]

These are amazing! Keep 'em coming!

[@samanthapage3513]

I've always wondered how this works! Great video!
