The '''glitch dimension''' (as it is often referred to by fans) is a [[glitch]] in {{v|Gold and Silver|s}}. Unlike some other glitches, this glitch is merely for altering the visuals of the game, and will not negatively affect or delete the saved file once it is executed.
This article is about the '''graphical glitches''' which can occur in the Pokémon games.

The '''glitch dimension''' (as it is often referred to by fans) is a [[glitch]] in {{v|Gold and Silver|s}}. Unlike some other glitches, this glitch is merely for altering the visuals of the game, and will not negatively affect or erase the saved file once it is executed.
Several different things can happen upon activating this glitch, one being that the [[game freeze]]s upon activating it. The other is that the screen turns white with a small pink rectangle in the top right-hand corner and the game restarts with different colors. When activated, it alters the colors of everything from the area the {{player}} walks around in to the wild and {{pkmn|Trainer}} battles. Also, it slows the processing speed when trying to view the player's [[party]] Pokémon when not in battle. Pitch black places like [[Dark Cave]] will be illuminated without the use of the move {{m|Flash}}. The '''<sup>P</sup><sub>o</sub><sup>k</sup><sub>é</sub>''' in [[Pokégear]] changes to ど◀ when the player enters their Pokémon selection. All fade-in and fade-out transitions are disabled.

Interestingly, the {{p|Ho-Oh}} on the title screen of Gold Version changes from a silhouette to a fully colored Pokémon.

===Explanation===
{{incomplete|section|Figure out if hex:FE can be done on other systems}}
The glitch causes the game to reset unexpectedly. When this happens it repeats the process used at startup to determine what type of [[Game Boy]] it is running on. This process relies on the fact that different models leave different information in memory at startup. Since the game was already running, that information is no longer present, so the process fails and believes it is running on a [[Game Boy|classic Game Boy]].
===Other methods===
 
Move hex:FE (a move with a blank name, thus is referred to here as its hexadecimal identifier) has also been found to cause glitch dimension, but this has not been confirmed outside of Crystal on emulator, as in this video.
This can be confirmed by talking to the girl in the [[Goldenrod Department Store]] who enables [[Mystery Gift#Generation II|Mystery Gift]]; she will explain that it requires a [[Game Boy Color]].

==Sprite glitch==
[[File:Sprite glitch.png|thumb|170px|right|The Sprite Glitch as seen in [[Generation I]] games]]
The '''sprite glitch''' is a [[glitch]] that alters the appearance of the {{wp|Sprite (computer graphics)|sprites}} in [[Generation I]], making the sprites appear to be cut into pieces or even unrecognizable in some instances.
 
In [[Generation I]], many [[glitch Pokémon]] will distort battle sprites upon their encounter; however, this can be fixed by viewing the stats of a non-glitched Pokémon.
There are other methods to the glitch, some of which involve using a [[Pokémon Center]] to heal the player's Pokémon when in a glitched area, visiting [[Glitch City]], or catching certain glitch Pokémon.
 
In other generations, it may occur when a [[Cheating|cheating device]] is used.

==Honey shop glitch==
==Explanation==
This glitch is only present in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. This is caused by the {{player}} using {{m|Sweet Scent}} or [[Honey]] in a [[Poké Mart]]. When the player talks to the shopkeeper and selects "buy", no names or descriptions for any of the [[item]]s in stock will be displayed.
The glitch causes the game to reset unexpectedly. When this happens it repeats the process used at startup to determine what type of [[Game Boy]] it is running on. This process relies on the fact that different models leave different information in memory at startup. Since the game was already running, that information is no longer present, so the process fails and believes it is running on a [[Game Boy|classic Game Boy]]. Because of that, the game is trying to ensure backward compatibility by disabling all changes in color palettes, since the original Game Boy did not support them.


{{Youtubevid|CuloqZqYJvE|Mickydu38|Grass}}
As the game thinks that it is running on the first model of Game Boy, certain features will be locked out. For example, talking to the girl in the [[Goldenrod Department Store]] who enables [[Mystery Gift#Generation II|Mystery Gift]] will tell the player that Mystery Gift requires a [[Game Boy Color]].
{{game|Crystal}} completely abandoned any backward compatibility with the original Game Boy, so performing this glitch on Crystal will cause the game to show an error message, explaining that a Game Boy Color is necessary to play.


==3D problems==
==In [[Generation I]]==
In {{3v|HeartGold|SoulSilver|Platinum}}, standing in certain places in areas such as the [[Great Marsh]], [[Ribbon Syndicate]], or the [[Fight Area]] may cause the foliage or walls to bend and merge into other graphics near them. This is most likely because they run on a 3D game engine.
An effect similar to Glitch dimension can occur in {{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, when running the game on [[Game Boy Color]] or in SGB mode. In {{2v2|Red|Blue}} the glitch happens most commonly as a side-effect of [[Save#Corruption|corrupting the memory]], or after performing the [[ZZAZZ glitch]]. In {{game|Yellow}} the effect can be rarely activated by encountering certain glitch Pokémon, like [[MissingNo.#Yellow_forms|MissingNo.]] or [[4 4]].


==Floating walking Pokémon==
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, having a {{status|poison}}ed [[walking Pokémon]] walk away from a [[ledge]] but simultaneously survive the poisoning causes it to float in the air until the player jumps off of a ledge again, or uses the move {{m|Surf}} or {{m|Fly}}.

In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, if the player plays as {{ga|Dawn}} and faces right, directly against a wall, the peak of the hat will be in the wall.

==Invisible grass==
==External links==
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, three tiles on {{rt|44|Johto}} and four tiles in the Swamp area of the {{safari|Johto}} appear to be empty, but when the player or the [[walking Pokémon]] is standing on the tiles, [[tall grass]] will appear underfoot. This grass appears between the top of the grass and the water on Route 44, and between the rightmost lake and the grass in the Safari Zone. [[Wild Pokémon]] may be encountered in this grass, and Safari Zone objects may not be placed on it.

Get it? Because the name is unknown. The subject of this article has no official name.
The name currently in use is a fan designator; see below for more information.

The glitch dimension (as it is often referred to by fans) is a glitch in Gold and Silver Versions. Unlike some other glitches, this glitch is merely for altering the visuals of the game, and will not negatively affect or delete the saved file once it is executed.

Results

Several different things can happen upon activating this glitch, one being that the game freezes upon activating it. The other is that the screen turns white with a small pink rectangle in the top right-hand corner and the game restarts with different colors. When activated, it alters the colors of everything from the area the player walks around in to the wild and Trainer battles. Also, it slows the processing speed when trying to view the player's party Pokémon when not in battle. Pitch black places like Dark Cave will be illuminated without the use of the move Flash. The Poké in Pokégear changes to ど◀ when the player enters their Pokémon selection. All fade-in and fade-out transitions are disabled.

Interestingly, the Ho-Oh on the title screen of Gold Version changes from a silhouette to a fully colored Pokémon.

Performing the glitch

Coin Case method

Main article: Coin Case glitches

Either talking to the Machop in Vermilion City, the Machoke in the Goldenrod Department Store or viewing the Pokédex entry of Machop, Machoke or Machamp and using the Coin Case immediately afterwards, will cause the game to enter the glitch dimension.

Ditto method

Trading a Pokémon with the glitch move -- onto a Gold, Silver or Crystal, then using -- in battle will cause the game to enter the glitch dimension.

Other methods

Move hex:FE (a move with a blank name, thus is referred to here as its hexadecimal identifier) has also been found to cause glitch dimension, but this has not been confirmed outside of Crystal on emulator, as in this video.

Explanation

The glitch causes the game to reset unexpectedly. When this happens it repeats the process used at startup to determine what type of Game Boy it is running on. This process relies on the fact that different models leave different information in memory at startup. Since the game was already running, that information is no longer present, so the process fails and believes it is running on a classic Game Boy. Because of that, the game is trying to ensure backward compatibility by disabling all changes in color palettes, since the original Game Boy did not support them.

As the game thinks that it is running on the first model of Game Boy, certain features will be locked out. For example, talking to the girl in the Goldenrod Department Store who enables Mystery Gift will tell the player that Mystery Gift requires a Game Boy Color. Pokémon Crystal completely abandoned any backward compatibility with the original Game Boy, so performing this glitch on Crystal will cause the game to show an error message, explaining that a Game Boy Color is necessary to play.

In Generation I

An effect similar to Glitch dimension can occur in Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow, when running the game on Game Boy Color or in SGB mode. In Red and Blue the glitch happens most commonly as a side-effect of corrupting the memory, or after performing the ZZAZZ glitch. In Pokémon Yellow the effect can be rarely activated by encountering certain glitch Pokémon, like MissingNo. or 4 4.
