    For those unaware about Fire Fang, there's a check that each typed damaging move has to do and it just happened to be overlooked on Fire Fang. This was never caught because Shedinja happens to be weak to Fire Fang anyway.

      You’re right, but there’s actually a specific reason as well- fire fang has an incorrect ID stored to the move. It was SUPPOSED to be one digit away from the first turn of phantom force, but instead it SHARES the ID with the first turn of phantom force, which wonder guard doesn’t block, since it’s just a charge move. Hilariously stupid

    Important to note that cartridge-accurate gen 1 pure hackmons is basically impossible to implement on showdown, due to the glitchmons and glitch moves that have all sorts of bizarre effects. Also in gen 1 you can enter link battles while statused, which is unimplemented on showdown, and would provide counterplay to sleep spam.

    • @DJFracus
      @DJFracus 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +41

      I think he likely didn't understand that you have to make the stat EXACTLY 655 to make it overflow to EXACTLY 0, not just make the stat high enough. So you don't just need a positive defensive nature, you also need 240 EVs to not get too high in the stat, which he seemed like he didn't know since he didn't mention it. Incorrect EVs was probably the mistake he was making.

    about the eternamax thing, it only takes 1 point of damage if it has a + defense nature with 240 ev specifically in the boosted stat, and itll take 1 point rather than 0 because 0 is always rounded to 1 (though it might as well be 0 because of that 255 hp)

  • @MEPlaysGames
    @MEPlaysGames 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

    The Fire Fang glitch happens because of a typo. When a move has a charging turn, the game won’t check if the target has Wonder Guard on the charging turn. So if someone uses a standard Solar Beam for example, the game will wait until turn 2 to see if Wonder Guard should activate or not. Shadow Force was meant to be on the list of moves with that property, and it was listed as number 272 in the game’s code. But Fire Fang was accidentally put on the list instead, because it was listed as move number 273. Since Fire Fang has no charging turn, it skips the Wonder Guard check during the actual attack

    In case anyone is curious why you can’t change a Pokémon’s ability on the gen 3 cartridge: each Pokémon’s data only contains a single bit (a 0 or 1) indicating its ability. 0 means it gets its species’ first possible ability, 1 means it gets the second (if it has one, otherwise it gets no ability which is how you can remove the ability on some Pokémon).
    As I was learning about the internals of the game I was curious for the longest time how I heard rumors of wonderguard sabeleye in gen 3 since that’s impossible with the model I described. So it’s really validating to hear jim say that it’s not possible haha.

    An interesting note about eterna-max and stat overflow. You actually need to NOT max out your chosen defensive EV in order to hit 0 in it exactly. If you go to high then you instead wrap all the way around to a single didget defensive stat. Meaning you take infinitely MORE damage then if you had even just left the EV at 0.
    Iirc you want 240 EVs and a boosting nature to hit 0 exactly

    With the stat over flow for eternamax eternatus, It would only take one HP of damage. Not nothing.

    I played a lot of gen 8 PH so let me add a few things. Eternamax can only be immune to damage on the physical or special side. Not both. That was a way to get around it as well. A common pick was shell smash calyrex shadow with moongeist beam and psystrike. And then normally a fairy move. You just sus out which eternamax was immune to which side (usually they’d bring one of each) and then click the physical or special move.
    Additionally, Regieleki was huge in gen 8. And comatose was really common. Typical set was choice scarf with comatose, sleep talk, whirlwind, and roar. Set up hazards and then phase spam until they have 1 mon left. Magic bounce was a big counter and also helped vs toxic spamming eternamaxs.

    Finally I may have some useful knowledge here.
    As I understand it, the 0 DEF bug works almost exactly as Jimothy described but with 1 key difference. When the damage calculation is ran with 0 DEF it actually produces a value of 2 damage before modifiers every time (from Gen V onward anyway.) This is mostly because the formula includes a three tiered division, which (simplifying it down to the relevant parts only for this example) includes (Attack/Defence)/50 and when Defence is 0, the total sum tends toward infinity, which the game spits out as a 0, then a flat +2 is added onto the sum, which results in the consistent 2 damage (before modifiers)
    People say it's "taking no damage" because it's a negligible amount but it's not actually 0, that's also why Jimothy wouldn't have been able to recreate it the way he originally expected.

    Gen 3 not being able to hack abilities makes me think about creating restricted hackmon formats.

    iirc with eternamax's stat overflowing you have to get the stat to exactly 655 (which is 240 EVs and plus nature i think)?, and it still technically takes damage, however it will only be 2 damage before applying any other modifiers like STAB or type effectiveness so it's still basically immune. every stat except HP can overflow but there's no real reason to overflow anything but defense.

      Yesn't. Gamefreak usually plans their games well ahead of time, however, this isn't the reason megas are programmed in SV. Every Pokemon and forme in the national dex is actually programmed in SV. The dexited Pokemon don't have models, but all their other data is programmed in to make things less tedious for them.
