    • @undefinednan7096
      @undefinednan7096 4 ปีที่แล้ว +57

      Thanks to the small amount of error checking in Gen 1 (which is responsible for its propensity to just read in garbage and treat it as pokemon/item/trainer/move/... data), its ability to keep running after catastrophic memory overwrites, and combinatorial explosion resulting from glitch interactions, the number of possible glitches is larger than you could possibly imagine.

    • @Neubulae
      @Neubulae 4 ปีที่แล้ว +36

      Doing **absolutely** nothing is actually quite interesting already, really. As (most of) all other items would jump to an address that does some random garbage crashing the game, seeing a *useless button* type of thing makes it a bit funnier.

    • @imaginaryboy2000
      @imaginaryboy2000 3 ปีที่แล้ว +26

      RAM items can't be covered in this video, as their exact effects are dependent heavily on the game state, since they run that as code. Saying "this items runs your party data as code" is about as much as CAN be said about most of them, and while the items themselves are much MUCH more useful than an Instant Crash button, they're less interesting to talk about.

    • @Noxedwin
      @Noxedwin 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I'd argue that even doing nothing is worth dissecting, if the way in which it does nothing is at least mechanically fascinating. "The CPU does seven backflips and starts crying in one frame and goes back to rest" is more interesting than "there is no visible difference between before and after.'"
      It sounds like a lot of the skipped ones might be interesting (or chaotic) in their own way, but if ZZAZZ says they're not worth mentioning, then they're probably not worth mentioning.

    7:56 So if y'all didn't know it already, the reason why this item executes "unusable memory" is because the entire address space from $FEA0 to $FEFF is permanently frozen, and no games can read/write to it. To this day it is a mystery why they did that

    Glitch items are such a unique concept. Unlike regular items, they do things you can't even imagine. There's one that with the right amount of items and right party, you can reprogram the entire game. I feel like glitch items are underrated because they just don't get the attention they truly deserve. Even glitch Pokémon. Pokémon that even exist like MissingNo.? Like, how do you even fathom such reality?

    I want to mention that I like how you keep the demonstration detached from the workings of the item - you keep what's actually happening under wraps while showing the item, explaining it afterwards, and it makes it quite fun to watch.

      Maybe an ACE item would be the best choice. Execution ultimately comes from an item, but you could have more control over execution. You could have it read from the data beyond the table past 0x80.

    This left me with two questions:
    1) What's so bad about "rst 38" that it crashes the game?
    2) Why do the mod 80 Poké Ball and Potion items all behave like an Ultra Ball or Lemonade, respectively? Is it the default behavior for the routine, as they don't have a valid id?

    • @DelayRGC
      @DelayRGC 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Hi!
      10 months late, but I can at least explain the first one.
      RST is an instruction that pushes the current program counter (+1, but who cares) to the stack and then jumps to the address of the instruction's argument. For Pokémon, this means a jump to 0x0038, hence RST 38.
      The problem is that address 38 contains an RST 38 instruction itself, as do addresses 8, 10, 18, 20, 28 and 30 (all hex). It's quite apparent that this very quickly leads to a stack overflow. From there, it's quite a regular game crash.

    • @NebulonRanger
      @NebulonRanger 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@DelayRGC Am I then correct in assuming that rst 38 was more or less Game Freak's way of annotating certain blocks of ASM as noexecute / data rather than code? Given that $0038 itself contains it, this reads to me like a forced crash noexecute method.

    • @DelayRGC
      @DelayRGC 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@NebulonRanger Unfortunately, I cannot answer that. Might've been just a GameFreak thing for this game?
      Crystal, for instance, doesn't do that for all addresses. Some in this 0 to 0x38 range (0x10 and 0x28) are used for functions like bankswitching. But even then, 0x38 contains RST 38, and unused values are still filled with the same instruction.
      So I don't know. Maybe it was some sort of standard Nintendo required, to fill these addresses with RST38 unless used otherwise?
