1st Gen Help! My game just got all mixed up!

[QT Plusle]

Ok, I've had yellow for years now, but I dont think that is why it mucked up. I dont think its missingno ether, because I havent seen one never mind caught one. And it is not my game boy advance SP because every other game works fine on it. Heres a few examples of whats happining:

1) All my pokemon have all got names like ?????? or no name at all.
2) Some are level 0. And some are over lv100 but when I take them out of the PC they are back to ether lv 0 or normal.
3) When I try to withdraw them the screen sometimes just goes blank.
4) Sometimes when I try to view the pokemon's summary while it is in the PC the screen goes blank and the GBA plays the pokeflute tune-(quite funny really-lol!)
5) Sometimes the pictures of the pokemon go all fuzzy and mixed up - especially when I turn and talk to Chou-my pikachu.

So any ideas of why this is happening? Has this happened to anyone else?

 

[Eon-Rider]

Odd... Did you catch missingno.? That might be the problem.

 

[QT Plusle]

no- I havent even seen one!

 

[Eon-Rider]

Oh. Then that's weird. I've never encountered a problem like that.

 

[Shiny Meganium]

Have you cheated on it? Cheating can cause odd glitches. It's definately not your Gameboy-that wouldn't happen.

 

[QT Plusle]

I dont think I cheated on it ever...but I completed it once and thats where the problem started. I remember! The first ever sign of it being mixed up was when my Butterfree got to lv 100. A short while after that the game started again! I was really upset! But then, after the second time it started again...the weird things started to happen....

May be that it is telling you to catch MEW.
Or mayby that your game is messed up.

 

[Recknin]

that happend to someone else,u tried to clone a pokemon and then got it to L100 and changed it movesets,that what hapend to ma pal but he tried to clone missigno

 

[QT Plusle]

I didnt even know about cloning the last time I played on it!

 

[Kylie-chan]

That happened to my brother's Yellow Version, Jake... it died. ._. *sigh*

And Crystal... Mystery Gift made it go mental. I had to restart. >_>

And cloning... apparently... can be quite dangerous for the game... if you succeed, you have a clone, if ya don't... bye-bye data... happened to me several times X_X;

Something similar happened to Gold. Not too long I chucked it in and started playing. Then suddenly all my names were glitched.

I had it sharked a few years before that and was manipulating the Clock Code. Do you think I deserved it? XD

 

[Faltzer]

I have heard that if you play the game for over a year then your game will die...I traded my friend my yellow for his silver..So that must mean.....UH-OH.He want's the game back!!But I'm here and he's in dominican republic.MUAHAHAHAHHA.

I think my game was doing that sort.My blue was acting all glitchy.Everytime I get into a house it starts doing the screeches for Missing.No. when he appearsi in yellow.That scared me alot.I always get goosebumps when hearing that screech.

 

[code zerro the deluge]

i left mine in the washing machine once
and all my pokemon were charizards at lvl 99
the couldnt go to 100
then i got mad and threw it and the pokemon turned into Raichu's
true story i swear

Batesymon, QT Plusle, where did you store your cardtridges before you began to play them again? Any dust inside the cartridge?

I've been luckier *knock wood*. I left my Red lying untouched on my bedside table for about six months, during that time water was spilt on it countless times, dust was collecting inside and around the cartridge, and it had formerly been my glitching "crash test" cartridge. It has been turned off while saving since I got it. I popped it into my GBC (connecting the pins wrong a couple of times before it clicked) and turned it on. Everything was just as I had saved it 6 months ago.

 

[Rokusho]

Is it true that if u play for to long the cartidges will die?
I hope not.

 

[~Amethyst_Callista_Moon~]

Looks like someone has a glitch in their game. Maybe you've approached Glitch City.

 

[Shattered Moon]

Thats odd. A glitch such as that...you should try starting over again..

 

[QT Plusle]

*Sigh*...I've tried starting the game again, and I stored the game in a special cartridge case.

 

[saint jimmmey]

i'm lucky i caught missingo and it didn't muck up my game.
but yeah i think it's just old.

 

[It@chi Bl@st]

My gold version just died last month. It's been 5 years since I played that game. It's because it is old and I might as well buy a new gold version.:(
