How's it possible?
 
While looking over the topic Missing No., it reminded me of something that happened in my yellow game. My sis took it to school for her last day of class and when she came home, she had a lvl 100 zapdos. When I asked her how she got it, she said that some guy told her he could get it for her and after "pressing a couple of buttons" she got it. How could he have done that?

Might have done the Missing No. glitch. That can also get you infinite items, and that item might've just been Rare Candy. Pressing buttons is a vague description though. It's how you do everything in the games.

..but I thought that glitch was fixed in Yellow?
Unless there was another method of it. I never played yellow. ):

I think that was fixed in Yellow, however, there are different Missing No.'s that can be found in Yellow. Bulbapedia is your friend.

No no we didin't catch zapdos yet which resulted in me catching the lvl 50 one with the lvl 100 one

By the way, it was disobediant to us (of course) but it obeyed us after we beat
Sabrina. Wouldn't it have to be Goivanni we have to beat to get a lvl 100 zapdos to obey you?

In my experience you have to beat the eleite 4 to get pkmn lv 100 to obey you. lv99 will obey you with the last badge though

It was probably just like the Mew glitch but every trainer gives a different pokemon so the guy knew who to fight for Zapdos.

The thing is though, the data is the same with the level, which is level 8. As far as I'm concerned, I don't think the level changes, since the same data would be involved, except the Pokemon.

Perhaps beatting Missigno, multiplies your 6th item in bag, if it was a rare candy, she trained the zapdos with it. Lucky you.

If there were no glitches performed on your game, chances are it's a trade. That's the only reasonable conclusion. You could estimate from the stats whether it has been Rare Candy Levelled/hacked or trained naturally by working out whether it has any EVs. It's not foolproof, as you don't know the IVs.

Could've been a gameshark, or a Missigno. item duplication glitch(rare candies.)
Otherwise, it could've been a trade.

Maybe The PokeGods blessed u with the zapdos LOL

theDIRTYAVENGER August 11th, 2009 7:55 AM

The only explanation is that the Pokegods sent down this PokeAngel, who has
Blessed you with this Zapdos.

From now on you must use Electric and Flying types only, for that is what the
Pokegods want! :D

MiniEggs August 11th, 2009 8:32 AM

Hmmm. It could be anything.

glaceonatcef August 11th, 2009 9:30 AM

The most likely thing that happened is a Missingno glitch- If I remember correctly, theres a way to see Missingno in yellow. I may be wrong, but it's the most likely explanation. She probably using the glitch and saw a Zapdos and caught it. Otherwises, I have NO idea besides Gamshark.
