Old man glitch

The Rare Candy Cheat is probably one of the most infamous glitches in the Generation I Pokémon games. It gives the trainer unlimited Rare Candies (or whatever item is in the sixth slot of the bag).
It is a side effect of the Missingno. bug, where the sixth item in a player's bag, not necessarily a Rare Candy, gets 127 copies of itself added. By using all of these but one and repeating the bug, the player can have an infinite amount of that item.
As the trainer will often encounter Pokémon over level 100 that are hard to escape from while executing the Missingno. glitch, it is a good idea to clone Poké Dolls.
