I did this as a kid. I was on vacation at my uncle's and his neighbor had a kid that also had a gameboy and pokemon red. I had blue. We freaked out with excitement making a boring vacation in the mountains so much better with someone to play pokemon with. I had an idea!!! I started a file picked a starter then traded it to him. Did it again and traded it to him. Kept doing it until he 2 of each starter and just one of the third starter I started another new game and picked the starter that he didnt have a double of, then he traded me the other 2 I was missing leaving him with 1 of each starter and I had 1 of each starter. Yes I figured that out on my own as a 10 year old ;)
Nah, they weren't as badly coded as people think. It's just that people dug into and searched for each and every flaw as much as possible.... And they tries to spread the info on these flaws and hacks.... Think about how many years worth of research went into finding all these flaws... More than 20+ years... Cut them some slack...
This one isn’t that bad, it’s standard save corruption. Honestly, newer games would have the potential for these ludicrous bugs, but they have patches to fix them later, and error handlers so all they do is crash the game before anything fun happens
I see what you did there, quoting Gandalf. But, yes, it's true, even after all these years I learn new things about the older generations I grew up with.
Ya I remember gen 1 and 2 having unreasonable amounts of bugs but they did make 250 pokemon and ya. Like totodile should've had waterfall Also Pokémon didn't know if they were gonna last forever or not.
This is why i loved yellow. You just talk to random people and just like the show. They gift you these demi gods 😂 and icing on top. Pikachu follows you. Just like the show
I remember playing pokemon Crystal and finding out how to clone pokemon. I had a level 88 tyranitar that I cloned multiple times and had just put them all on one team. I wrecked everything. It was an awful strategy, but it worked against the elite 4. 😂
I didn't know how to do this as a kid, but I did know how to do a glitch using the same save tactic to duplicate a held item :cough master ball cough: and the Pokemon holding said held item : Mewtwo cough:.
@@kronnie13 My cousin and I accidentally found (didn't perfect it though) a duplicate glitch with the link cable. If you time it right you both end up with the same pokemon. Sadly one of the pokemon in the trade disappears entirely in order for it to work
@@jamjam1 when I was 13, my local game store wanted to hold a Pokémon game battle challenge. You had to catch, and level up your own Pokémon. This was like 21 years ago. I worked my ass off making my Pokémon team all level 100. Seriously. No rare candy, all exp(because if you knew, rare candy levels didn’t get as many stat point ups). My friend wanted me to trade my level 100 Pidgeot, just for his Pokédex. He actually wanted to dupe it doing that cable trick. He ended up losing my Pidgeot, then gave me one that he rare candied to 100, and it was like half as strong as mine. I was furious.
You can also do this in the OG Gold & Silver games. You have to choose your starter , catch a random Pokémon , drop your starter in the PC , save & restart your game to do it all again until you have all three starters. When I first found this out I thought I was the coolest mf 😂
Dont know about this one but both blue/red as well as Gold/Silver had a trick to clone pokemon that both envolved saving and turning of power to the gameboy. So no reason why this could not work@@gregriba6896
Things to consider 1. You can keep doing this for a full set of 2 (or 6 Squirts) 2. The first two starters count as "traded" due to the ID mismatch (don't let them eclipse your badges) 3. The Rivals mon will be the Pokémon good against whoever you pick LAST. Plan accordingly.
I remember in pokemon gold/silver in 2001, we would do the same thing in the pc box to clone the pokemon you wanted more of. Then we’d put Master Ball as hold item on the pokemon you cloned so you would clone master ball too. Ahh, the good old days
Don't forget also doing it with rare candies, evo stones, TMs, nuggets, PP-UP, one off held items like leftovers, etc. And to make multiple copies of gift Pokemon like Shuckle without a ditto or multiple unbreedables/legendaries Many many uses for that glitch. Another classic one I loved is to catch an M Missingno in Red/Blue, teach it fly, give it a rare candy so it evolves into Kangaskhan and won't corrupt the game data if you save, then transfer it over to GSC
@SiliconemoldshopDE you didn't accidentally follow the steps for this. You either did it or didn't. You had to put it in a box, save, then change box and as it changed it would save again. You'd then close when it was saving the second time.
Everyone like oh man if I knew this 25 years ago, thinking how cool it would have been to have all 3... this guy here with a full team of bulbasaur LMAO I'm *skull emoji*
I discovered a very similar trick you could do with the silver, crystal and gold games. It can be done with the cloning trick. Discovered it back in 2000. Was such a helpful trick
@GameDeath that's what's up! Yea I've always had a love for Gen 1 over all others. Currently, I'm trying to Max out every Gen 1 game. So, for each game(Yellow, Blue, Red, and Green if I can ever find one) I'm looking to acquire all 151 Pokémon, maxing out every purchasable item in game, then training each individual Pokémon to lvl 100(no cheats or rare candies, just battle after battle), and finally maxing out Poké dollars to complete the game. After Gen 1 is finished, I will do the same for Gen 2 and then I'll be happy lol.
@Amfibios yea man it's taking awhile, especially not using cheats and hacks and doing everything manually battle by battle, but I love it. I don't remember what month I started this year, but I'm starting with Yellow and I've already got all purchasable items maxed(besides the game corner and tms in celadon market), and 34 Pokémon at lvl 100. Just a little clarification. In order to max out all 5 vitamins, it takes a total of 36 runs through the Elite 4 to 99 1 vitamin. So 180 Elite 4 runs just to max the vitamins. This will probably take me years to complete, but oh how the journey will be fun.
This Glitch Worked Really Well! I did them all first try. But what sucks is I tried to train my squirtle and Bulbasaur to level 13 for Brock’s gym, but after level 10 , they disobeyed me.
Actually kind of glad I didn't know this, because one of the most exciting Christmases I had was when I got Pokemon Yellow, which let you get all the starter Pokemon.
Omg so many memories! My brother did this for me when I was little. So I had a Charizard, Blastoise, Venasaur, Mew, & Raichu and Missing No as my ending team lol
I disagree. Only STAB would be surf and his special isn't the high stat. Charizard gets access to slash which crits 100% of the time even without STAB. plus he gets stab fly and flamethrower. You can throw dig in there for coverage if you'd want. His high stat was speed which means he crits all the time even outside of slash. Outside of Charizard there's only a couple of fire pokemon. Outside of Squirtle there's better water Pokemon with gyarados and starmie. You're also better off giving ice.beam to a faster pokemon so they can 1 hit that Dragonite before it takes a turn.
Edit: While the following denotes a glitch that can actually happen in gen 1, I was mistaken in that it happens when you do this particular glitch. Guess I should test things before I comment, huh? WARNING If you try to deliver Oak's Parcel after doing this, the game won't let you progress because Oak will just check your Pokédex. The game assumes that, since you have more than one Pokémon, you were able to catch one. And since that's not possible until after delivering the parcel, you're gonna be stuck in Pallet and Viridian. I'm not even sure if you can trade them out at that point
This isn't true (at least not in every case). I've just done it on red. The only slightly annoying thing is they don't appear in the Pokédex, and because of the different trainer ID they're treated like traded Pokémon so they soon don't listen to you.. although get boosted exp too.
Alternatively you can use Pokemon Stadium and the transfer pak to do this but with any Pokemon. Start Stadium with your Pokemon Red or Blue copy connected, store your Pokemon in Stadium then start a new game in Red or Blue, then transfer your Pokemon back into Red or Blue and there you go. You can start the game with a Level 100 Mewtwo this way if you wish.
The problem with this method is the previous 2 starters obtained will not be registered in the Pokédex. A player is better off doing the ditto train fly glitch with Kadabra and Alakazam special stats to get the other starters. Just glitch rare candy and calcium starting with the earliest MissingNo trainer at SS Anne.
Saying gen 1 was "held together" at all is a dubious statement, imo. (Said with love, blue was my first game. Some people get way too defensive over gen 1.)
I'm so glad nobody knew this. The fact that everyone would have had all 3 starters would have changed the dynamic forever. Everyone's journey was different in the game and that's what made it so damn cool
Eh, our friend group accomplished this by trading our starters to one cartridge, restarting, and doing it two more times, then trading them all back so everyone got their 3 starters. Of course, this required at least 2 carts and hours of patience.
The only downside to this is, that the two starters that you don't pick normally won't obey you fully. You have to get the badges so that you can train them over a specific level cap. For example until Misty only your "true" starter and the Pokemons you catch will obey over lvl.10.
The only side effect is that two of the three base form of the starter Pokémon won't be registered to the Pokédex when you do this, unless you evolve them. But if you don't really care about that, the glitch works wonders if you wanted all 3!
@@kahoo2428 yeah there's also the method of putting it in bill's storage and restarting while the game is saving, but that sooo much later since this is the first minute of the game
I remember doing similar on gen 2 involving the pokebox, after I got the 3 starters, I realized chik wasn’t gonna get used…love the Pokémon, hate the original moveset 😅
A similar glitch can be used in gold and silver to clone Pokémon when moving them between PC boxes, since the game saved with every move back then. I had three level 100 Typhlosions back in second grade
If you play Pokémon red or blue on the game boy color. When the Nintendo logo pops up you can actually change the color scheme of the game by pressing a directional button. And if you hold B and push the directional buttons you can change it to 4 more colors
I think the only downside is it treats the first two Pokemon like traded Pokemon that get belligerent after they level up, no? I could be mistaken, but I think when I did it, it got hard after Misty’s gym because the first two Pokemon I picked never listened.
Once Pokemon stadium came out, I just used that and the transfer pak accessory. Another way was to get a friend to hold your starters while you start the game over.
In this case, high-level Pokémon may not obey their Trainer's commands because they're considered traded. You need to obtain Gym Badges to control two other Pokémon. It's a bit troublesome.
Ridiculous. I've played the hell out of this game, knew all about the duplication glitch in Silver and had no idea you could do this on red and blue. That would make the game SO much more fun.
Reminds me of the duplication glitch in the 2nd generation, specifically Gold and Silver. It also worked in Crystal but results were much more likely to give you a glitch Pokemon with the potential of messing up your game.
To be fair I did too. It's the only one with an edge over the first 3 gyms. 5 if you factor in the duel poison typing makes cancels out erika and koga, really the only gyms it struggles in would be the fire and psychic gyms but by then you have have a chance to get better pokemon
I still have the Gameboy Advanced that my uncle gave to me when I was little- I haven't touched it in a while, but now I know exactly what sort of run that'll bring me back to my gaming roots :)
I remember playing blue version as far as I could without saving before the batteries finally ran out just to see what I could do with a different starter without erasing my original game…… this would have been very helpful 😂
This would have been legendary back in the day lol. I loved using charmander but it always shot myself in the foot for the Pokédex because venusaur isn’t an encounter in blue.
@@AiyetoroFeligrus The potential was always there, yes. But i think this was discovered rather recently. At least well after the Gameboy era. I was all over the net learning about & doing the mew glitch, a few of the missingnos, checked out the truck… I don’t remember this one
It wouldn't be the same, it was different then, I remember going to a card shop in the mall certain nights a week they'd have a list of cards they were buying and if you had one you could sell them it. Also weekly YuGiOh tournaments at ToysRUs were pretty lit

@@cjbakalukits very well known how you can clone pokemon in gsc. The trick to get all starters in gsc was to make the origin save at starter choosing and catch a random wild mon asap
Usually, when you clone, you save just before the cloning. Getting all starters has you talk to mr. Pokemon three times and catch 2 random mons to have in team
I’ll have to try this. I have found out that you can use the “mew” glitch and get rare Pokemon early in your game. You can get a level 7 Lapras, Scyther, Pinser, Chansey, Nidoqueen, etc. I even found a level 7 Dragonite and Moltres. Also you can catch a second Mew. Only problem is is that you can only do this glitch in gyms and locations that don’t require the menu option. Meaning you can’t use this onto the third gym, forth, seventh, and eighth. It’s a pain in the ass, but well worth it.
for the people who want to know, he's just joking.... Gary will only got one starter..... but the bad part is that the caracked starter will always disobey you
How do I learn this 20 years later man… we used to create new game and then play until you could trade, catch 3 Ratatas and swap starters to each other and then clone them so we didn’t have to do this 6 times instead of 3.
This is very old trick, all 1st gen game can do that even yellow. I remember figuring it out way back when I was a child and me and my brother figuring that out. There was no internet that time and we were able to do that by accident. 😂 it was like we found a gold bar that time
This does not work on the original cartridge games. I tried it several times on blue version and only got a message saying the data was destroyed and mostly just not working. I did not have charmander on my team when I did get it to work and got to "continue" after resetting instead of the data being destroyed. Is there a trick to this or something or is it only possible on emulators?
Ive been trying to get this to work on cartridge without success but theoretically, it should be able to work - if your data is getting corrupted you're likely resetting too soon, and if you can continue with the save and you don't have any Pokémon in your party you're resetting too late. these kinda of glitches are usually frame perfect and difficult to do without a LOT of attempts, kinda like the bad clone glitch in gen 2. good luck! EDIT: i just managed to do this on cartridge today, so it definitely does work on cartridge!! it did take quite a few tries but you have to reset right when the 'yes/no' text box disappears when you are saving on the new save file, without the larger text box changing it's text. id also recommend erasing your old save file before starting to attempt this glitch in case it effects the process (i know it can do with the gold/silver/crystal bad clone glitch so i'd just play it safe with this one too)
@@ohmhasmeaning7292 it's got nothing to do with the age of the components, these glitches have been the same ever since the games released with the same tricky difficulty. components have some influence but age isn't really a factor (except for with the battery i guess, but then you just wouldn't be able to save at all). i personally don't really understand all the technical stuff behind it but a lot of save corruption glitches will, as the name suggests, corrupt your save file. you're just aiming for the intended corruption (carrying over the party from the previous save) instead of the completely garbled corruption (which makes the save unplayable). sorry for the long reply, just very passionate about Pokémon glitches!
I hav tried this on a CGB-001 with original pokemon blue. Cant get it to work, no corrupted file but just saves. Anyone know if by "reset" he means a power cycle or using A+B+Select+start soft reset.
This is pretty awesome but I wouldn't have been as excited then as I was, when you could unlock starters in Stadium to transfer to your game. Such fun times.

@@hooky91 Oh, if they don't appear in the dex it's fine. The glitch only happens when a second mon is registered in the dex

Alternatively you can use Pokemon Stadium and the transfer pak to do this but with any Pokemon. Start Stadium with your Pokemon Red or Blue copy connected, store your Pokemon in Stadium then start a new game in Red or Blue, then transfer your Pokemon back into Red or Blue and there you go. You can start the game with a Level 100 Mewtwo this way if you wish.
The problem with this method is the previous 2 starters obtained will not be registered in the Pokédex.
A player is better off doing the ditto train fly glitch with Kadabra and Alakazam special stats to get the other starters. Just glitch rare candy and calcium starting with the earliest MissingNo trainer at SS Anne.
Anybody remember Missingno and infinite masterballs/rare candy.
I do i remember messing it up too not doing it the right order 😊
Ahhh Yes Red/Blue was held together by hopes and dreams
Similar to how Super Metroid on the SNES was held together with thousands of dollars worth of duct tape.
Saying gen 1 was "held together" at all is a dubious statement, imo. (Said with love, blue was my first game. Some people get way too defensive over gen 1.)
It was literally held together with a paper clip, a rubber band, and a prayer.
This is save data manipulation, the fact that's it's even playable is a miracle. It's not quite a thing you can easily prevent
@@devent10n sure it was.. You open shitting on the game and close saying people are defensive about a game you literally opened shitting on
I honestly bet you could beat the game with just the 3 starters. If you farm hard charmeleon can dominate the first 3 gyms by himself.
I don't know why, but this guy has the most "sunny d/danimals" voice I've ever heard.
8 year old me with a GameShark: Yeah, I did that - I did that too, I swear.😅
and everyone with a link cable
I'm so glad nobody knew this. The fact that everyone would have had all 3 starters would have changed the dynamic forever. Everyone's journey was different in the game and that's what made it so damn cool
Eh, our friend group accomplished this by trading our starters to one cartridge, restarting, and doing it two more times, then trading them all back so everyone got their 3 starters. Of course, this required at least 2 carts and hours of patience.
The only downside to this is, that the two starters that you don't pick normally won't obey you fully. You have to get the badges so that you can train them over a specific level cap. For example until Misty only your "true" starter and the Pokemons you catch will obey over lvl.10.
Very similar to the Gen 2 cloning trick, used that a lot in school before it was fixed in Crystal.
This one was much less known, though.
i have a feeling my childhood would have been a bit different had i known this
Or if you'd gotten Yellow
@@marcusmclean132 I did get yellow but it wasn't out when i played red/blue
Now I want to see a playthrough of this.
You can also get all 3 starters in Gold and Silver as well with a similarly convoluted method i just cant quite remember it right now
The only side effect is that two of the three base form of the starter Pokémon won't be registered to the Pokédex when you do this, unless you evolve them.
But if you don't really care about that, the glitch works wonders if you wanted all 3!
How to build the Squirtle Squad...
U can clone pokemon. I 4got how the glitch goes tho. Its been ages
@@kahoo2428 yeah there's also the method of putting it in bill's storage and restarting while the game is saving, but that sooo much later since this is the first minute of the game
Yesss
God this gave me such nostalgia for searching for stuff like this in these old games and doing these
This just destroyed my previous save file.
I remember doing similar on gen 2 involving the pokebox, after I got the 3 starters, I realized chik wasn’t gonna get used…love the Pokémon, hate the original moveset 😅
Def could’ve used this video back in the 90’s lmao
Holy shit this is perfect for completing the Dex. Now you only have to worry about the exclusive route pokemon
That can be cheated using the Mew/Fly trainer glitch. Thanks to all the exploits, it's stupid easy to complete the dex in gen 1.
And the trade evos because no friends
The trade evos are the real challenge
@@sentry007 Mew/Fly glitch exists to fix that.
A similar glitch can be used in gold and silver to clone Pokémon when moving them between PC boxes, since the game saved with every move back then.
I had three level 100 Typhlosions back in second grade
Damn bro its crazy how far the vraphics have come but dont get me wrong the og pokemon graphics still are sick as fuck
If you play Pokémon red or blue on the game boy color. When the Nintendo logo pops up you can actually change the color scheme of the game by pressing a directional button. And if you hold B and push the directional buttons you can change it to 4 more colors
This would of been the best thing ever to know back then!
Right!!
Pokemon Red, Blue, Green, Gold and Silver it works
I think the only downside is it treats the first two Pokemon like traded Pokemon that get belligerent after they level up, no? I could be mistaken, but I think when I did it, it got hard after Misty’s gym because the first two Pokemon I picked never listened.
Once Pokemon stadium came out, I just used that and the transfer pak accessory. Another way was to get a friend to hold your starters while you start the game over.
From the look of things, it's likely your first two have different trainer IDs. Would make things difficult, they won't listen above certain levels.
That's why you beat them into submission
I loved getting the level 100 Nidoking in red (Nidoqueen in blue) by doing a sequence in the viridian forest
In this case, high-level Pokémon may not obey their Trainer's commands because they're considered traded. You need to obtain Gym Badges to control two other Pokémon. It's a bit troublesome.
This is wild to me. I figured I knew about all of the glitches in the first games but I've never seen this one
When was this discovered? It would have been so helpful back in the 90s
Believe it or not this cheat was out back then too
Ridiculous. I've played the hell out of this game, knew all about the duplication glitch in Silver and had no idea you could do this on red and blue. That would make the game SO much more fun.
Reminds me of the duplication glitch in the 2nd generation, specifically Gold and Silver. It also worked in Crystal but results were much more likely to give you a glitch Pokemon with the potential of messing up your game.
I was always the weird one who would pick Bulbasaur as my starter
To be fair I did too. It's the only one with an edge over the first 3 gyms. 5 if you factor in the duel poison typing makes cancels out erika and koga, really the only gyms it struggles in would be the fire and psychic gyms but by then you have have a chance to get better pokemon
@@taipansghost like an earthquake snorlax or slowbro with body slam
the Nintendo hot line told you to pick bulbasaur. yes the was an official Nintendo automated hot line that gave free advice on games.
that dude is overrated, but extremely powerfull.... never doubt on bulbasaur
Nostalgic mind blown ❤️
This is the only video I ever liked and really meant it.
I think this is the first video of this kind that I've come across that is actually good. Usually, people show things that everyone already knows.
I still have the Gameboy Advanced that my uncle gave to me when I was little- I haven't touched it in a while, but now I know exactly what sort of run that'll bring me back to my gaming roots :)
How do I reset on game boy advance
@@angelonajera5101 start new game and save it'll tell what button to continue with
I tried this one day and it fucked my game up. I wouldn’t recommend it
I remember playing blue version as far as I could without saving before the batteries finally ran out just to see what I could do with a different starter without erasing my original game…… this would have been very helpful 😂
This would have been legendary back in the day lol. I loved using charmander but it always shot myself in the foot for the Pokédex because venusaur isn’t an encounter in blue.
Why couldnt this had existed before we aged with internet 😢
It always existed yall just didnt know it 😩
@@AiyetoroFeligrus The potential was always there, yes. But i think this was discovered rather recently. At least well after the Gameboy era. I was all over the net learning about & doing the mew glitch, a few of the missingnos, checked out the truck… I don’t remember this one
It happens when you move the truck next to SS-Anne😏
@@MarvinTurner nah this was around in the 90s..
It wouldn't be the same, it was different then, I remember going to a card shop in the mall certain nights a week they'd have a list of cards they were buying and if you had one you could sell them it. Also weekly YuGiOh tournaments at ToysRUs were pretty lit
Professor oak having a dementia attack as he sees the same multi-dimensional kid steal his shit for the third time: "What...what in the mukking muk is happening right now!"
That will be so Good if well i remember the Game softlocks to have more than one pokemon before the Pokedex i think
You can get anything you want on yellow that ditto glitch was fun
This is how Red gets all the starters when you battle him in Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal😂
I knew about this in GSC, but i didn't know it was also possible in RB! Awesome!
Wait its possible in gen 2?
@@cjbakalukits very well known how you can clone pokemon in gsc. The trick to get all starters in gsc was to make the origin save at starter choosing and catch a random wild mon asap
Usually, when you clone, you save just before the cloning. Getting all starters has you talk to mr. Pokemon three times and catch 2 random mons to have in team
Instructions unclear. Ended up in North Korea.
I’ll have to try this.
I have found out that you can use the “mew” glitch and get rare Pokemon early in your game. You can get a level 7 Lapras, Scyther, Pinser, Chansey, Nidoqueen, etc. I even found a level 7 Dragonite and Moltres.
Also you can catch a second Mew.
Only problem is is that you can only do this glitch in gyms and locations that don’t require the menu option. Meaning you can’t use this onto the third gym, forth, seventh, and eighth.
It’s a pain in the ass, but well worth it.
Bro this actually blew my mind hold up what
Fun thing. When you do it, Gary ALSO has all the starters!
Actually?!
Hahahaha not bad 😂
God
True or just joking lol
for the people who want to know, he's just joking.... Gary will only got one starter..... but the bad part is that the caracked starter will always disobey you
I wish i knew this and the mew glitch as a kid
the missingno glitch was awesome but rare candy glitches left your monsters weaker
Bro School would have went so different if I knew how to do this 😂😂😂😂
All this time I thought I had to choose a starter. Now you’re telling me I could have just had all three?! AAAAAmcishdjixjx
We are the most entitled generation ever lol we dont even have to choose a starter pokemon, we can have all three
You just blew my neanderthal mind
How do I learn this 20 years later man… we used to create new game and then play until you could trade, catch 3 Ratatas and swap starters to each other and then clone them so we didn’t have to do this 6 times instead of 3.
I think this was the most influential video game from people born in 1990.
If not this then Diablo 2 on pc
no way... THATS INSANE!!!!
Crazy right !!
I did not work I saved as soon as I got my starter but the game did not save what am I doing wrong
Aww I forgot that the Pokémon in the menu looked nothing like the actual Pokémon. How nostalgic.
This is very old trick, all 1st gen game can do that even yellow. I remember figuring it out way back when I was a child and me and my brother figuring that out. There was no internet that time and we were able to do that by accident. 😂 it was like we found a gold bar that time
We just cloner them back in the day. Was a beast having a full team of lvl100 Charizards.
This does not work on the original cartridge games. I tried it several times on blue version and only got a message saying the data was destroyed and mostly just not working. I did not have charmander on my team when I did get it to work and got to "continue" after resetting instead of the data being destroyed. Is there a trick to this or something or is it only possible on emulators?
Can confirm this didn't work for me also on the old GBC with Pokemon Red, just corrupts game file sadly.
Ive been trying to get this to work on cartridge without success but theoretically, it should be able to work - if your data is getting corrupted you're likely resetting too soon, and if you can continue with the save and you don't have any Pokémon in your party you're resetting too late. these kinda of glitches are usually frame perfect and difficult to do without a LOT of attempts, kinda like the bad clone glitch in gen 2. good luck!
EDIT: i just managed to do this on cartridge today, so it definitely does work on cartridge!! it did take quite a few tries but you have to reset right when the 'yes/no' text box disappears when you are saving on the new save file, without the larger text box changing it's text. id also recommend erasing your old save file before starting to attempt this glitch in case it effects the process (i know it can do with the gold/silver/crystal bad clone glitch so i'd just play it safe with this one too)
I feel like in 2023 if it damaged the same data its because of aged components in the cartridge @@SheepWolfe
@@ohmhasmeaning7292 it's got nothing to do with the age of the components, these glitches have been the same ever since the games released with the same tricky difficulty. components have some influence but age isn't really a factor (except for with the battery i guess, but then you just wouldn't be able to save at all). i personally don't really understand all the technical stuff behind it but a lot of save corruption glitches will, as the name suggests, corrupt your save file. you're just aiming for the intended corruption (carrying over the party from the previous save) instead of the completely garbled corruption (which makes the save unplayable). sorry for the long reply, just very passionate about Pokémon glitches!
I hav tried this on a CGB-001 with original pokemon blue. Cant get it to work, no corrupted file but just saves. Anyone know if by "reset" he means a power cycle or using A+B+Select+start soft reset.
5 year old me would have loved this info back in 1999 😅😂
1994
@@FS-gl9cg 1999 was most likely when they played the game
I actually knew this back in the day. It was such a fun thing to do.
This is pretty awesome but I wouldn't have been as excited then as I was, when you could unlock starters in Stadium to transfer to your game. Such fun times.
Vinny: "Here's a complicated way to get all three Starters!"
Me with my Gameshark: "huh....neat."
If I had known this when I was a kid, I have no doubt my life would have amounted to something meaningful. But now my life is a shambles…
That wasn't a childhood, I miss that time so incredibly much 😢
It works for Gold and Silver too. You can also clone your pokemone.
