:Yes and no. As the video description says: "Take the Pokémon affected by the Pomeg Berry Glitch in Pokémon Emerald, ''transfer it'' to Pokémon Ruby, and watch what happens." The glitch can't be reproduced as you do in Emerald, simply because the Pomeg Berry works differently in R/S. If you tried using it, you would get the usual message "DAD's advice... PlayerName, there's a time and place for everything!". Even the description is different, indeed. While the Emerald one is "Makes a Pokémon friendly but lowers base HP.", in R/S it's "PokéBlock ingredient. Plant in loamy soil to grow POMEG."

:We don't remove features for everyone because some people can't see them. If we did, there would be no roundy corners because most IE users can't see them. The trade glitch occurs when you trade a Pokémon that evolves by trading while it is in an Egg. The Pomeg glitch does not cause it, but it makes it possible, because you can evolve Pokémon while they are still inside eggs, meaning that you can get a Kadabra in an egg. The egg battle is caused by having only a fainted Pokémon and an egg in the party; I have made it work on Emerald, but my game just freezes when I try it on Diamond. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:08, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

==Egg Battling==
The page says that an egg you've battled with using the Pomeg glitch will hatch at level 5, even if you've gained levels with it or even evolved it while it was still in the egg.

The latest fun with the Pomeg glitch [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOEwPnv2TFM involves] corrupting boxed Pokemon to various degrees, allowing for things like changing which substructure is read as what. There's more scattered throughout [http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php/topic,6868.0.html here]; the article should probably be updated by someone who actually understands this stuff.

== Um..alright ==
 
Somebody should really make/find a better video for gen IV. I can't see anything on the available one. Maybe once I get far enough in my Heart Gold ROM, which could take a very long time, I could make a somewhat better video myself with some dumb hypercam. But isn't there somebody who's better equipped to make a high-quality video of the glitch on here?

==Gen 3 behaviour + GEN V ==
 
Due to a YouTube comment I decided to check if in Gen 3, the Pomeg Berry acted by depleting 10 EVs each time or lowering straight to 100 EVs like the article said. With A-Save I found that a Pokemon with 255 EVs went down to 245 EVs so Gen 3's behaviour works like Gen 5's. Will edit
 
 
EDIT: A Pomeg glitched Pokemon can't be transferred through generations. Pokemon have to be in the Box, which resets HP to maximum. --[[User:Flametix|Flametix]] ([[User talk:Flametix|talk]]) 23:51, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
 
== Over level 100? ==
 
In generation 1, If a pokemon with a level over 100 is obtained through glitches (e.g. using the [[old man glitch]]) and then it gains XP sending it back to level 100, if the pokemon had a low enough health, will the HP go into negatives and underflow up to 65 thousand? Does it go up to 255? Or does the pokemon just faint? {{unsigned|Aaay}}
 
== Past slot 6 ==
 
In Generation I, by gamesharking to allow access beyond slot 6, you can find a lot of interesting things<nowiki>:</nowiki> pokemon with glitchy nicknames, pokemon with -- attacks, and even pokemon with a positive amount of HP and functional moves that have PP. Gamesharking (or item underflow glitching) for extended item menus also reveals interesting things. Are there any pokemon which appear past slot 6 in Gen III whose data is actually other data (like the player's position)? Is it possible to obtain variants of ?????????? by swapping them in from beyond slot 6? [[User:Aaay|Aaay]] ([[User talk:Aaay|talk]]) 17:50, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
:Also, if data past slot 6 extends into other data, is it possible to go really far down the pokemon list past slot 255 and make the game try to load data that is literally not there (make it point to somewhere past the end of the data on the console)?

Evolve

If you evolve the egg with the Pomeg Glitch, does it stay evolved when the egg hatches? --Shiny Noctowl 00:43, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Yes, a Pokémon will remain evolved when the egg hatches. It even drops back to level 5 while keeping the attacks and evolution form; this is the main reason why the Dragonite handed out at a recent event is actually nothing special. This can also create combinations that would be considered impossibly low without usage of this glitch, such as a level 5 Electivire (raise Elekid egg to level 30 and evolve, Pal Park the ensuing Electabuzz, then trade it while holding the correct item) or a level 6 Magnezone (raise Magnemite egg to level 30 and evolve, Pal Park the ensuing Magneton, then level it up one level in the area of Mt.

I have experienced a similar glitch in Pokemon Blue where my MissingNo. got pixel blocks as hit point numbers, and a 1-hit KO took 30 minutes to kill it. What happened there?-Glitchunter

looking at an egg's stats

While battling with an egg, can you look at its stats, ability, nature, etc. in the menu?

But isn't there somebody who's better equipped to make a high-quality video of the glitch on here? Velocityraptor (talk) 18:06, 11 April 2015 (UTC)


Gen 3 behaviour + GEN V

Due to a YouTube comment I decided to check if in Gen 3, the Pomeg Berry acted by depleting 10 EVs each time or lowering straight to 100 EVs like the article said. With A-Save I found that a Pokemon with 255 EVs went down to 245 EVs so Gen 3's behaviour works like Gen 5's. Will edit


EDIT: A Pomeg glitched Pokemon can't be transferred through generations. Pokemon have to be in the Box, which resets HP to maximum. --Flametix (talk) 23:51, 10 June 2015 (UTC)

Over level 100?

In generation 1, If a pokemon with a level over 100 is obtained through glitches (e.g. using the old man glitch) and then it gains XP sending it back to level 100, if the pokemon had a low enough health, will the HP go into negatives and underflow up to 65 thousand? Does it go up to 255? Or does the pokemon just faint? - unsigned comment from Aaay (talkcontribs)

Past slot 6

In Generation I, by gamesharking to allow access beyond slot 6, you can find a lot of interesting things: pokemon with glitchy nicknames, pokemon with -- attacks, and even pokemon with a positive amount of HP and functional moves that have PP. Gamesharking (or item underflow glitching) for extended item menus also reveals interesting things. Are there any pokemon which appear past slot 6 in Gen III whose data is actually other data (like the player's position)? Is it possible to obtain variants of ?????????? by swapping them in from beyond slot 6? Aaay (talk) 17:50, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

Also, if data past slot 6 extends into other data, is it possible to go really far down the pokemon list past slot 255 and make the game try to load data that is literally not there (make it point to somewhere past the end of the data on the console)? Aaay (talk) 17:50, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
