    Just a clarification: the definition of a "glitch" is when the game performs in an unintended way. Many of these are very minor glitches but still are, at a technical level, glitches.
    ALSO, yes we are aware status moves that NPCs use have 75% accuracy. The example in the video we had a memory viewer open on the side and can confirm in that case it was still considered a gen 1 miss.

      I’d argue that some of these are less the game acting in unintended ways, and more so “the developers were stupid and did the wrong thing”
      For example, the audio “glitch” if the problem is just the devs using the wrong audio file, then it’s not really acting in an unintended way, it’s happening exactly as the devs intended it, they just intended the wrong thing. Of course I don’t know if that’s actually why the audio plays, that’s just an example.
      Nonetheless, good video, learned a thing or two

    Fun fact, the massive number of glitches in the original Red & Blue (or Red & Green in Japan) are so well-known, that in the FireRed & LeafGreen remakes, Nintendo added a tongue in cheek joke.
    There is an extra island in FireRed & LeafGreen called Pattern Bush. The island is designed to resemble the actual circuit board the original Red & Green was shipped on and the only type of Pokémon you can catch there are Bugs.

It occurred to me that ghosts are just souls who feel lonely. So I went out of my way to get a pokedoll, and give it to that ghost, which got rid of it, and I was able to progress.

    This was a great video, and I never even knew that Prof. Oak could give you Pokeballs, what?! As for those asking me to do this challenge: NO! That sounds horrific. Just a quick overview based on these glitches what one would need to do. First there's that 1/256 miss chance that you can't control. You get Swift after Rock Tunnel (or lvl 26 Pikachu) and in Celadon you get X-Accuracies, and that would help, but until then it's just a dice roll. All the way through you can never get hit by a status move (at least after you get the Boulder Badge) meaning you need to OHKO everything. So just grind exp. right? LOL you'll see that 1/256 miss in no time. But let's say you make it to Celadon, you're in the clear right? WRONG. At this point you still need to never lose enough health to go into Red Bar, hope that will setting up the X-Acc that you never see a status move (also you can't use them either), and that sounds awful. There's a 0% chance I ever attempt such a ridiculous challenge (remind me of this post in like 9 months when I decide to attempt it).

    Yellow fixes some glitches but also adds some fun new ones that could end a glitchless run thanks to the special Pikachu.
    It has a happiness system, and its happiness will increase every time an item is used on it. Even if it has no effect. Make sure you don't misclick!
    Also, there are a couple scenes that freeze Pikachu in place, such as the singing Jigglypuff in the Pewter PC. If you walk away from Pikachu and walk around while it's off-screen it messes with memory in the background, and can lead to some strange effects.

      You could make an argument that even for a glitchless run, that sound doesn't count since it cannot be exploited for speed gains.
      The really interesting discussion around Gen 1 glitchless is whether or not the Ghost skip counts as a glitch. You can use a Poké Doll on the ghost of Marowak to make it run from the fight even without revealing it, allowing you to skip getting the Silph Scope entirely. Right now, this isn't considered a glitch by the community- technically everything in that scene is working exactly as intended, just in a combination of ways that wasn't intended. It's seen like blowing yourself up with bombs in Zelda to get across gaps- it's a creative application of mechanics working as designed, rather than exploiting a coding mistake.

      hell, the poke doll skip isn't even caused by you being able to use poke dolls in the encounter, it's caused by the poke doll having a _different result_ than the run command. from a very quick peek of the disassembly, it's caused by the fact that the poke doll ( and moves like teleport, if you could get your pokemon to use it 'em ) don't bother setting a battle result, they just end the battle right there. which is a problem because the map script for that floor of the pokemon tower checks the battle result to tell if the player ran or not ... and since the result isn't "the player ran," but just whatever the default is, well ...
      so, yeah, it's pretty clearly a glitch caused by non-standard escape methods not setting all the values that they should

For example, the printed manual in Gen 1 CORRECTLY listed Psychic as immune to Ghost, but what makes this a glitch is the existence of _conflicting information in the same games_ (e.g. NPC dialogue), not to mention "official" strategy guides claiming Ghost was supereffective on Psychic, and the fact that it was changed in Gen 2 onwards.

      @@Blernster The badge boost glitch and 1/256 misses are definitely something you can encounter and notice in normal play. If you like using setup moves then by the end of the game you're getting something insane like a +75% boost to all stats from stacking +6 off a setup move. The 1/256 happens a hell of a lot, especially noticable using high power 100 accuracy moves like ice beam. Assuming 4 ice beams per battle, it'll happen 1/64 battles, if you account for wild pokemon grinding or refighting the elite 4, you're nearly guaranteed to see it at least once.
      And there's some other ones that do impact play quite a bit. Focus energy and dire hit being essentially useless, crits ignoring your stat buffs making them sometimes WEAKER than normal hits. Not quite a glitch, just bad coding.

    In generation one and two, your opponents’ status moves missing is actually intended behavior. All enemy status moves have a 1/3 chance to not work… for some reason. That being said, technically every single miss or fail constitutes a reset because even non-100% accurate moves are subject to the 1/256 miss meaning that any miss has the potential to be a generation 1 miss.
    Red bar also isn’t a glitch. The fact it takes priority over other sound is intentional, and the increased speed due to it isn’t necessarily coded, but it was 100% known about by the developers. Things like that are always found in playtesting.
    The 1/256 glitch also affects many other mechanics such as critical hit chance and (not entirely sure about this one) status effects. This game is littered with bugs that never were caught during playtesting because of the convoluted way many mechanics work making it difficult to discern what is and isn’t intended. Another example of this is due to the really weird way catch rate works, great balls are better than ultra balls in R/B/G/Y.

    Don't use Mirror Move on a transformed Ditto while it's not in the first move slot, or your Ditto will forget how to use Struggle.
    This happens because of how Mirror Move is coded. When you first use it, it consumes a PP, but then it consumes another PP when it uses the move that was used right before it, so then it adds a PP to that move slot. This leaves you with an invisible, unselectable, nameless move with 1/0 PP, which the Pokemon Center cannot fix.

Also there a Lass just outside of Fuchsia City that has a Clefairy that knows Metronome which can also trigger the glitch.

    The move Rage is glitched such that missing with it will forever reduce the move’s accuracy.
    Knocking out a Pokémon with a move that requires a cool down (like Hyper Beam) lets you immediately use it again. Substitutes count for this.
    If you use Substitute with exactly the amount of health required for it, you’ll make a substitute and then the Pokémon will faint.
    It’s possible to get a wild Pokémon encounter at the same time as you trigger a Trainer battle.
    The infamous MissingNo. encounter glitch is absolutely possible to do accidentally.
    Using a Pokedoll during the Marowak Ghost battle ends the fight and allows you to bypass the Silph Scope.
    And the entire Psychic type is glitched, so just never encounter a Psychic-type Pokémon ever :)

    2:47 a really less known mechanic of Gen 1 and 2 is that CPU opponents have an additional 25% chance of missing status moves, so even 100% chance status moves can miss, even without the 256 glitch, if used by the CPU.

    Speaking of crit glitches. When I did the missing no glitch, sometimes I would encounter a level 200+ golbat (character name, I know). What is interesting is that it would know razor wind and when it crit with it, the damage would overflow to be barely any (it 1 shot when no crit).

  • @TheLordTash
    @TheLordTash 3 роки тому +2

    The display message glitch also applies to NPCs when selecting their move. Most trainers are programmed to always choose a super effective move, but the way they determine it is the same way the text box does. So if a trainer had like an electric and grass move, they'd always opt for the grass move against Gyarados. It doesn't come up THAT often, but if you do something like taking a Bulbasaur into Erika's gym, every trainer will just get permanently locked into Poisonpowder because it only sees Bulbasaur is a grass type and not a poison type.

    For those of you wondering, it's not that gen 1 was lazily programmed. It's a miracle in memory optimization, and so they sacrificed stability. But like Luke says at the beginning in the video, you'll only encounter a game breaking glitch on purpose. The worst glitches you'll encounter on accident that a casual player will even notice will be of the "huh that's weird" variety.

    The audio over lap is a glitch? That is a hardware limitation if anything. the Gameboy only has like four audio channels. And the low HP takes two channels, one for the upper note and one for lower note. Meaning that any audio that should play normally be replaced with the low health jingle. That... while seems like a glitch, is likely one of the few things working as intended in this game.
