  • Through a combination of the void glitch, the RETIRE trick and 2 years of hard work, Arbitrary Code Execution has been achieved in the generation 4 games of Pokémon.

    This is absolutely incredible.
    As someone who was among the pioneers of the void glitch all the way back in the back in the, I've already had an itch this was possible, but we'd probably never get there.
    Today, a decade from when I left, I cannot express how proud this makes me feel of this incredible community.
    So, so many thanks to everyone involved in this project, this is indeed the Holy Grail.
    ACE is here, sky's the limit!

      People knew how to catch Mew in 2008. The trainer-fly mew glitch was known about.
      Go back in time and tell people that surfing through that Elite Four door isn't a game-ruiner, and that void out there is gonna get wild.

    There may be a ton of prerequisite steps and the actual keys pressed aren't actually random but I still think the comparison is cool.

    saved this to watch while soft resetting for a shiny chimchar in brilliant diamond and i’m so glad i did, what a captivating video! i’ve been following research and developments with glitches in dp for 7 or 8 years now and i can’t believe how far things have come just while i’ve been around to watch. i remember almost crying the day the method to catch arceus via the void glitch and retire trick was discovered, and look at how far things have come just since then! i can’t begin to thank you and everyone involved enough for all the time and effort and dedication you put into making this possible. seeing this come together bit by bit over the years with the discovery of the retire glitch, alt retire, ledge canceling, etc has been so exciting and simply amazing to watch. thank you again so much for your dedication, and here’s to figuring out both ASE and ACE in diamond and pearl after all these years!

  • @Clownieo
    @Clownieo 2 роки тому +10

    You seem to take this stuff seriously, so I was hoping you could replicate something for me. I used to mess around with the link cables for Gen 1. Basically, I'd get to the confirmation screen, turn off one game, set up a different trade with that game, get to the confirmation screen again, turn off game two again, and then facilitate a trade between games one and three. You could trade for an empty slot on another game doing this. I got a particularly strange glitch. It's hard to explain, but the game would become buggier with each step while you held this Pokemon in your party. I know Gen I is already a confirmed mess, but this was... different. I've encountered all of the normal glitch mons through Cinnabar and the Mew glitch (including the unique variants in Yellow), but this is different. Hope you get the chance to read this.

Lastly, does the final step count that you make in the void correspond to the Pokédex ID number of the Pokémon, thus being able to get Manaphy? Thanks!

      You can manipulate the games code by "going bonkers," giving you any item or pokemon you could want.
      However, "going bonkers" is very intricate and complicated, so you must do it right in order to get what you want

    regardless though i have a few questions :
    is this only possible on the japanese game file then ? is this even humanly doable ? how long did it take the tas (i presume) shown at the end of the video ?

    Also at 35:23 did you turn your character sprite into Giratina? 😆
    You and your team have been going insane with the research over the years. I admire the commitment that you all have.

    • @RETIREglitch
      @RETIREglitch  2 роки тому +6

      The numbers being input are code that writes the sprite of giratina over mine, and created a manaphy byte by byte into memory. This was obviously not done by hand, I wrote a script that converted the memory writes to inputs to automatically play frameperfectly. And thank you! :)
