I love how when Werster discovered Glitzer Popping he was basically like "yeah I'm gonna call it Glitzer Popping because most glitches have boring names and I want this to have a cool name"
Early Zigzagoon with ability Pick Up is a godly feature. It can provide you not only nugget, but ultra balls, vitamins, potions, rare candies and more. Emerald even changed this ablity to be even more op.
It was severely nerfed in Emerald. It's only bonkers in specifically Ruby & Sapphire.
I had a team of 5 zigs with my starter and cut them down as I got my main party
@@ReginaldCosmic i still get occasional ultrablls and nuggets what are you on about.
@@tengkualiff Emerald limited the Pickup items by the level that your Pokémon is at, whereas in Ruby and Sapphire let you pick up really good items no matter the level, even at the beginning of the game.
Yeah you’re smoking grounded up Lucky Charms if you think Emerald made this OP. It got nerfed into the ground boy.
Fun Fact:
the girl being teleported to the wrong spot by her Abra also was part of an anime episode
If you fight Wallace in Ruby/Sapphire before battling Winona, Wallace gives you dialogue letting you know to go to Fortree for the last badge. There are also a couple different spots where Professor Birch can be found between different badges.
where?
So if you're exceedingly patient and skip Fly, Wallace can be done out of order? Huh.
@@FerreTrip Because the HMs for Flash and Fly are not mandatory for clearing roadblocks and there are no events scripted for when their respective gyms are beaten, both Brawly (Gym 2) and Winona (Gym 6) can be done out of order.
You must defeat Brawly before you can face Norman, so Brawly can be your 2nd (after Roxeanne), 3rd (after Watson), or 4th (after Flannery) gym fight.
You must defeat Winona before you can enter the Elite Four, so she can be your 6th (after Norman), 7th (after Lisa & Tate), or 8th (after Wallace) battle.
That means that one possible order to defeat the gyms would be Roxeanne, Watson, Flannery, Brawly, Norman, Lisa & Tate, Wallace, and lastly Winona, with only Roxeanne and Norman in their correct position.
I still wanna know where you can find Birch between badges.
@@DigitalHeliumJumper He can be found on Route 101 and Route 103. He will evaluate your Pokedex if you speak to him.
I'm not sure when he leaves his lab or comes back, or if there are other routes he can be found.
4:05 maybe you know this but didn't mention it because this video is about Emerald but in B/W2 PWT if you battle Norman second he specifically mentions his family moved from Olivine City
It means Norman and Jasmine were neighbors right?
@@Vivisheyislonger
Possible, but a bit of a reach.
It never ceases to amaze me how people learn about these various glitches that are so incredibly convoluted and detailed. Do people learn this stuff by data mining? Or is it really something people just stumbled upon from years of trial and error?
Damn that first glitch is way too complicated how do people figure these out lmfao
Reading the codes
Knowledge of codes, plenty of time, boredom and 20 years in the making of the gaming codes research.
Some gaming hackers will boldly say some code breakers know the game more than the devs themselves.
The game devs thought of everything in generation three, however in generation eight and nine the devs just said "it's fine ship it"
Do glitches count as secrets now?
I know right. How “obscure “
For the ppl who don't know its a secret, why not?
Yeah when you’re looking for content
For clickbait, anything goes
no, they don’t
It would be nice if a secrets video only explained actual secrets, not glitches. Secrets are deliberately put into things, glitches happen by random chance from unusual data interactions, so starting a secrets video off with a glitch kind of goes counter the title.
Mad
but is he wrong
@@SwolegardYes, a secret is a deliberate thing. A glitch is unintentional
@@notapplicable6985 my comment was directed to the one above mine
@@notapplicable6985Wrong. A secret is irregardless of whether it is a glitch or not. Most of you just have some weird moral high ground and treat it differently.
You’re out here making us all so nostalgic for Pokemon Emerald. Don’t leave us hanging…😢
Haha whats next? Diamond is nostalgic?
@@eduardood I hope so!
@eduardood ... Diamond came out 17 and 11/12ths years ago. People were born the same day as it and are becoming adults in a few days...
I'm actually somewhat amazed that I first of all figured out about the Johto starters back in the day but also managed to get myself chikorita eventually.
Wish Emerald had catch dates to feel even more nostalgic.
Also I think we accidentally learned how to clone in the battle tower back in the day. Kind of amazing how much random stuff we found before it was easily available on the internet.
You went through all this trouble to get the worst Gen 2 starter??
PLEASE UPVOTE THIS SO PEOPLE WILL SEE MY WARNING:
Do NOT use your main game to do the pomeg glitch for warping to the special islands as it will forever break a party slot. Do it on a preliminary playthrough for extracting rare Pokémon/items.
I did the glitzerpop thing for Lugia, Ho-oh, Celebi, Jirachi, Mew and Deoxys. I was kind of annoyed I couldn’t trade over the last 2 because they weren’t “fateful encounters”. I got the GBA operator to just unlock the events to catch them normally lol
What’s the GBA operator?
@@eriklopez1234 GB Operator. It's a USB dock for plugging GB and GBA cartridges into a PC, which can read the ROM and read or write the save file. For GBA games you can also do the same tasks with a DS Lite, an R4 card and the "GBA Backup Manager" DS homebrew, which is the way I've been doing it.
GB games are more complex to deal with though, with the most straightforward method I know of for getting at the save requiring a GBC Gameshark, the PC link cable it came with, and an old PC that has a parallel port. Though to avoid setting up an old PC just for doing that occasionally, I've been using a Gameshark to snapshot the game save, restore it onto a USB-compatible GB flashcart (EZFlash Junior does *not* work, I use a GB USB Smart Card), and then read the save off it over USB, or reverse the process to write it. It's just roundabout and annoying enough to make me consider getting a GB Operator.
@@eriklopez1234 it lets you stream gba to PC I think
Yeah, I guess you CAN do the Glitzer Popping before the Elite 4, but it's better to wait until after so you can access the battle tower and go nuts on cloning the eggs. Also allows you to create backups of the needed Pokemon in case you fuck up somewhere during the process. Also, the rabbit hole keeps going down when you look at the list of things you can do with corrupted Seedots.
Emerald started the field effects from Abilities. The best example is Synchro where you will encounter a wild Pokémon with a matching Nature based on the leading Synchro Pokémon's Nature 1/2 of the time.
Man, I wish they didn't remove that function for Synchronizing natures of wild Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet. Also, I think that in Gens. 6 through 8, Synchronize was guaranteed to make wild Pokémon have the same nature, making it even more useful.
@@SomeGuy712xThe change is true in cases. All Abilities suffered from the removal in SV too. Overworld Ability effects are fun to use like Pokémon actually helping you hunt as their training.
Don't you need to unlock the battle frontier in order to clone plusle and seedot for them to corrupt for glitzer popping?
Yes for the old sea map and the aurora ticket and stuff like that
No it just takes longer without cloning. You can just reset if you fail
You only do the cloning to increase your chances.
@@genuinebucket681 I see. The video I watched a few years ago mentioned that its necessary to clone them
It's not required but it's highly recommended to clone them to keep them to do more glitzer popping and higher odds
I think it's good to mention that you can rematch all of the gym leaders after you've beaten the game. Everytime you enter the hall of fame there's a small chance that one of the gym leaders will call you for a rematch, they'll all have full teams with kanto and johto pokemon, and they'll all be double battles. Side note, Wally can also be rematched, but I'm not sure if he'll call you the same way the gym leaders do, or if he'll act like a regular trainer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Also, the gym leaders pokémon's level will varie depending on how many times you've rematched them.
>Obscure secrets
>Starts off with a glitch
>Thumbnail is misleading on what it is, making it seem like there's a special interaction for having a Mewtwo by then
My favourite secret in Pokémon X/Y is that one tile of the Lumiouse Tower fence you can walk through
let’s make sweet love
4:12
Gen 5's World Pokémon Tournament would have Norman reveal that he is specifically from Olivine City.
IT'S HAPPENING
I CAN FEEL IT
EMERALD LEGACY
Please do Emerald Legacy!
Leading off with Glitzer Popping. While technically you do not need to make backup clones of Dots and Pluses for the glitch to work, it would be extremely foolish not to do so. If you have your EVs of the only copy of Dots and/or Pluses set up do execute the code for one glitch, you will not be able to do the many, many other glitches which require different EVs on those pokemon. You also may make it not possible to use them to get the Egg to use Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). ACE in Emerald allows you to use PC box names basically like a GameShark code but also uses the EVs on Dots and/or Pluses as a requirement. If you didn't make backup clones of Dots and Pluses when getting Mewtwo, you "might" be locked out of ACE. Papa Jefe has a couple of really good tutorial videos where he links pastebins created by a couple of other people that go more in depth about ACE. The method of obtaining ACE is the same as obtaining Mewtwo, but instead of hatching a Mewtwo you get a glitch that executes your ACE code.
I'd also argue it's a glitch and not a secret. When I think of a game secret, I think of something hidden but intended, such as out of the way signs or devs names hidden in the game and not being discovered for decades.
That first secret is just a real version of all of those playground rumors we heard as kids!
I sense something coming...
Something... That will hold up to it's predecessor's Legacy
Wish poketubers existed back when I was a kid, could have gotten all those mystery events I thought were completely closed off to me. Wouldn't have wasted so much time at the mossdeep space station.
Tbf though, most of these super glitches took ppl forever to figure out in the first place anyway, long after the games were released
I'll be the contrarian and say that Emerald Legacy isn't happening, just because. But I gotta say, playing legacy versions instead of the unwieldy original versions is such a saving grace for me because I haven't really played these older versions (my oldest emulator experience is Platinum and my oldest official experience is Sword & Shield). So as someone who really likes the amenities of the modern gaming, the legacy versions are a godsend.
Emerald has so many excellent mods for it that I'm not 100% what he'd need to do in order bring something both fresh and classic at once to the table. There was a very appreciated niche for a high-quality Crystal rebalance and QoL mod in the committed spirit of the original. But for Emerald, it might be harder for them to set their mod apart from others already out there.
Well he's confirmed he's doing both Yellow and Emerald Legacy so hurrah!
There's nothing wrong with the original versions. Just play them.
Ah man. I never owned Emerald but I put thousands of hours into Sapphire. There's still so much I don't know about gen 3.
Fun fact, it wasnt properly coded in (there's a youtube channel, Goppier or something like that, that makes it work), but instead of a Hiker you're supposed to also rarely see a wild Pokemon like a Zigzagoon. He fixed the code and it's cool to see.
I literally never noticed that the museum had the S.S. Anne music...I just had to look it up and got melancholically nostalgic listening to the song, the FRLG verion, and the RSE version, all giving me their own sort of pain
Every Rich Boy and Lady in Emerald that has a Zigzagoon or Linoone is always holding a Nugget so wait as long as possible to thief them off.
1. Their money count is always the level of their pokemon x 200 (before the Amulet Coin)
2. Their Zig or Linoone is always holding a nugget.
3. Fight the two ladies in Juan's gym with the Amulet coin and thief for about 60,000 pokedollars combined
Ok I see the first section and immediately think how tf does anyone ever discover this. This is so unbelievably obscure and random, I don’t think most people fully grasp just how absolutely ludicrous stuff like this is.
"14 obscure secrets"
1: A well-known glitch
2: The same glitch but it can be used to get items
3: oh btw you can get more items with the glitch
4: An in-game event the player is encouraged to investigate
Damn, you're off to a great start.
So hows Emerald Legacy coming along, Chief?
I only got a Gen 2 starter because my friend had the GameShark and completed my Pokédex for me. I think I chose Cyndaquil
I don't think glitches count as secrets my guy
So as it turns out, FRLG had a habit of reusing names for Trainers of the same class from RSE. Examples I could find include Youngster Joey/Takeo, Hiker Clark/Kazunori, Bug Catcher Doug/Osamu, and of course, Psychic Jaclyn/Mariko.
Ackshually, in Pokemon Emerald, any mention of the player's family being from Johto was removed and was only brought back in Pokemon Black 2/White 2 and Pokemon OR/AS. ☝🤓
glitch= secret. kinda but i find it less interesting than an intentional secret. also gen 4 mewtow backsprite in gen 3 game.
About #9, it’s good to note that the Violet and Azalea City OSTs are actually used in FRLG, in Sevii Islands 4-7. The routes in those islands also feature a rearrangement of the Route 42-44/Lake of Rage OST.
Goopier did a video a couple years ago about reverse-engineering the trading protocol to "trade" between gen 2 and 3. It's a fun watch.
In emerald both the rich boy(winston i believe) and lady at the entrance and exit of petalburg woods have the exact same setup of zigzagoon holding a nugget. They even give an insane 7200poké(before amulet coin. Using a thief Pokemon on these 2 and getting amulet coin boost is definitely easiest way to farm money.
Something similar to dive is waterfall
I played a W2 randomizer and my starter was Goldeen so I got waterfall before the HM was given to me (it worked with the required badges regardless)
Did you guys know….hold on…get this…that you can CHOOSE YOUR PLAYERS NAME when you begin the game?
i love your videos so much, keep doing what you're doing!! thank you for making these
This is more like a secret list for Emerald. Things like the Pomeg Berry glitch only work in Emerald, but you mention Ruby and Sapphire at 0:08....
If you decide to do emerald legacy (which I can see happening), you should work with Bisa. He's a youtuber bascially remaking emerald himself and I can you to making something incredible.
Huh, the Johto secret was a happy surprise
There's another interesting interaction when starting a new game and visiting your neighbor for the first time. There are a few ways you have things play out.
These aren't secrets, these are glitches. There's a difference.
Want to start off by saying I found the video entertaining and that I watched it through to the end, to start on a positive note. A couple of criticisms:
I clicked on the video because I wanted to see 17 obscure secrets in Pokemon Emerald. But there were only 14, and they weren't all Emerald-specific.
The end is way too abrupt - it switched to the next video in my playlist before I had a chance to realize the video was over.
Take them with a grain of salt if you care, as I'm just a random passerby. And to leave on a positive note, one thing I did like is the music overlay in the bottom right during that section.
thank you! i actually just had the number wrong in the title, thats my bad
@@smithplayspokemon No problem. I imagine that if you're doing all of the editing yourself, or if you have a lot of other things going on (for all I know this is something you do on the side,) I'm sure it gets to be a lot to make sure all the details are correct all the time. Lord knows I don't have that always myself.
Emerald Legacy baybeeeeeee!!!!!
That alternate rival battle is an example of quality that the pokemon company is no longer capable of implementing into the modern games. An antique of the days when a game needed to be solid and complete before it was put on shelves, and anything that wasnt right, just became part of the game
I love how the devs accounted for these issues but not the RTC glitch in Ruby and Sapphire.
The old Pokémon games had so much mystery. So many things programmed into the cartridge that you would otherwise miss or stumble upon. People used to make whole theories about secrets that could be in there
I hope you do an edit of this game, too. Some touch-ups and changing the dark and ghost physical and special split.
And unown gaining not just ancient power like crystal legacy but also secret power.
I never knew the Psy-chic was there near the Cycling road. :0
You can get ANY pokemon before the elite four with that well known and constantly covered method, why not just call it how it is.
The wallace line was for mewtwo was probably put in because some ppl who played FR/LG would trade over their Mewtwo to their R/S game, and would then proceed to trade them over to Emerald.
Emerald is my favourite game ever, from the secret base to the battle frontier, it's sad it has not gotten the remake it deserves
That subtle reference to Vsauce was genius
In the remakes you can get a gen 3-5 starter. It’s not really a secret, lots of people rechallenge the elite 4 for xp and money
The "misses" Johto soundtracks were for testing purposes, they were in the files of Ruby and Sapphire, and went unused.
Bro's headphones makes his integrated speakers on the gba sound good
A reminder that bad eggs have extremely strong potential to fuck up your game in many unpredictable new and exciting ways
Yes, we can get one of Johto's starters in theory, but completing the pokédex is an (almost) impossible mission without cheating.
Those music tracks were likely done for testing.
All these years, thinking I know everything about my favorite Pkmn game, and there's still new things being surfaced.. well, I mean, the Pomeg glitch, that is lol
I think all of the music from GSC was used to test the sounds rather than having had encounters with the beasts planned.
Regarding the cable car, there was also a 1% chance that you'll see a Pokemon, probably Zigzagoon or Poochyena, I think.........
I think if you early trade Macho Brace to train your Pokemon before the first badge, after you beat Roxanne and heading out of Rustboro City you meet May for a battle and she has a Torkoal in her team.
Hey Vsauce, Zigzagoon here
Another fun thing that reminds ppl of the johto league in emerald is the fact that u can actually copy pokemon the almost exact way u can in gen 2 games
Anyone else ever see Latios/Latias while taking the gondola? Saw Latios once as a kid and freaked out. Can’t remember how many times I tried to make it happen again but gave up.
No outro and at least half of these are glitches or unused content… i love you “do not recommend this channel” button
Who tf discovered this and how?
The big nugget thing probably with a frisk banette
I can turn Seedot into Chikorita which is another Chikorita themed Pokemon Emerald event.
I dont understand why it takes so much steps for a mewtwo. Like back then, there was no youtube or enough internet sources to actually know how to get a mewtwo.
5:40 OMG DUDE I KNEW I SEEN HIM ONCE OR TWICE GROWINNG UP I KNEW I WASINT CRAZY!!
Am I smelling an emerald legacy on the horizon?
The legendaries weren't "unnoticed" or anything, they were locked behind events or glitches
Okay, first time I knew all presented "secret", and almost all of them found myself while playing it... I definitely wouldn't call them obscure
Oh yeah Glitzer Popping. Seems legit and not like those ridiculous cheats from 2006 online to get the magic muffler.
My god, the attention to detail was just different back then.
Did you know they were giving around about a 100? Mute in generation one like each time with green red blue and yellow. They gave out a few 1000 each 1 came with a Certificate and the ID number of the pokemon/trainer and there name
Day 875 of wondering when they will add Emerald to the NSO GBA service
A lot of people should already have gen 1 and 2 games on their 3DSes
"you can get mewtwo before elite 4"
oh wow how do i do that
"you need a pomeg berry"
of course
I like how with the mew two glitch he was talking about modding in specific Pokémon with specific EV’s giving you a slightly better chance to get mew two… or hear me out… you’re nodding anyways just give yourself a mew two
My IQ is too low to understand what the hell was that Mewtwo procedure.
Man's about to fix emerald.
So much of pain just to steam roll the elite 4 with Mewtwo? Hard pass.
0:31 you mean "fainted" not "feinted"
Maaan I didn’t even know chikorita was a gen 2 pokemon….
Wait when in the gen one lore does it mention Team Rocket visiting faraway island?
Aren’t those safari Johto Pokémon also the same ones from the GameCube titles? Could be miss remembering
i wanted to ask you chris, theres one pokemon in the entire pokedex of hoenn i never was able to catch as a kid and that is feebus i had help from a friend from a trade to obtain it but then evolving it was much worse then catching it so do you know how to obtain feebas through fishing? if so can you explain it through a video perhaps?
Route 119 6 random water tiles fish with old rod gives better odds due to mechanics for good and old rod taking longer feebas has a 50% chance to appear in those random spots
Every single square on the route has a small chance of even having the chance for Feebas. It's easy to find info online
Pokemon Emerald was peak Pokemon 😍
I was scrolling and landed on one of your videis when this popped up in my notifications. Clutch timing
I believe there was also special dialog if the beldum from steven was shiny
These feel like the old playground rumors come true😂
