Does it work in the Europe games or just US and Japan versions?
Not sure, don't own the European version.

The most awsome of awsome glitches ever to be found:

A totally legit way to obtain Celebi in your US Gold, Silver, and Crystal versions. I suggest you practice on a ROM first since this could ruin your game.


If you feel like battling, send me a message (: I do use hacked Pokemon and am not afraid to admit it. If you have an restriction (No DW Pokemon, no legendaries, etc.) I'd be happy to oblige by those rules.

I don't remember how I did this, but I had somehow messed up my Gold version to where the guy wouldn't give me a bicycle. I went through the whole game without the bike!

I heard the same thing happens in HG/SS too. I think it's something with skipping over him and going to the bike shop in Kanto before you go to the one in Johto makes him say something different than he normally would, never triggering the event to give you the bicycle.

My Nidorino just reached lv. 26 in Red and evolved into Nidoking. All by itself. >.<
That can happen in incredible rareness. My Vulpix evolved into a Ninetales... I didn't know the B cancel... 1 level before Flamethrower.

I've tried using that trick in Yellow to evolve my Pikachu, but whatever I do it doesn't seem to work.
Am I doing something wrong?
Pikachu cannot evolve in Yellow. At all.

The trick was to trade it, Thunder Stone it and trade it back. I've not actually tried it, but I've definitely read about it. I also think if you trade a second Pikachu into Yellow, the second one can be evolved. That is, assuming both of them are in the party. I'll need to try it out.

On the other hand, that's not really a glitch. How else would you get Raichu?

Right, my mistake. Your Pikachu (with the ID, SID, and OT being the same) cannot evolve in Yellow. Any other one can.

Ok, I have a question. I surfed on the shore of Seafoam islands (in Red version on my Normal Monotype) and found Pidgey, Oddish, and Venonat. Is that a glitch?

Yep, this is called the Old Man glitch. You'll eventually run into 'M and Missingno., but the Pokemon you find are due to your name. Specifically the 3rd, 5th, and 7th character in your name determines it.
