Emerald: Abandoned Ship Glitch
This is to report a glitch I found in Pokemon Emerald. I don't know about R/S. Also, I’m not sure if this is where this thread should be, but it seemed the most suitable.
I’d gone to the Abandoned Ship to get a Tentacruel, being too lazy to evolve a Tentacool, caught one, and used an Escape Rope. I ended up outside, in Surf mode. I’d never activated it, so I got curious and went back inside. I used a save editor to overwrite the Surf move, so now no-one on my team knew Surf. I used an Escape Rope again, while inside, and voila, there I was on the water, in Surf mode. I went back on the ship and tried re-entering the water. No go. This glitch isn’t documented on Bulbapedia, or anywhere else that I could find, so I decided to put it up here in case its already known, and wasn’t put up since you can’t do this without cheating. |
Hmmm, curious...I might try that out to confirm it.

It's kind of like a placeholder since you can't get into or out of the Abandoned Ship without Surf. This is like the Bicycle Road glitch in Gen I games. Basically you get onto Bicycle road without a bike and you end up on a bike when you enter Bicycle Road. You're automatically put onto a bike, or in this case, in Surf mode. Though it's interesting that you've found this since I've never heard of this before.

Yeah, I figured it was like the Bicycle glitch - but what do you mean by placeholder?
I've never heard of this either, which is why I was reluctant to put it on Bulbapedia straight away. :cheeky: It's probably due to the fact that this can't be performed without cheating of some sort. Too bad the devs didn't put an in-game trade in the Ship, or this would've been discovered much sooner. :disappoin |
