The '''Surf glitch''' is a [[Generation IV]] [[glitch]] best known for enabling the capture of the promotional [[legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Shaymin}}. {{p|Arceus}} cannot be obtained through this method since Arceus is not in a location from which it is possible to get to the [[Sinnoh]] [[The Underground|Underground]]. | The '''Surf glitch''' is a [[Generation IV]] [[glitch]] best known for enabling the capture of the promotional [[legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Shaymin}}. {{p|Arceus}} cannot be obtained through this method since Arceus is not in a location from which it is possible to get to the [[Sinnoh]] [[The Underground|Underground]]. | ||
The glitch is accessed due to the door in {{EF|Aaron}}'s room of the {{si|Pokémon League}} having bad programming, allowing for the player, while facing it, to use {{m|Surf}} if it is selected from the Pokémon menu. This will allow the player to step into the [[void]] around the indoors area consisting of the room and walk to another area. | The glitch is accessed due to the door in {{EF|Aaron}}'s room of the {{si|Pokémon League}} having bad programming, allowing for the player, while facing it, to use {{m|Surf}} if it is selected from the Pokémon menu. This will allow the player to step into the [[void]] around the indoors area consisting of the room and walk to another area. Through this, with steps easily countable using the [[Pokétch]], the player can walk to [[Newmoon Island]] and the [[Flower Paradise]], finding Darkrai and Shaymin there available for capture without the need for their respective event items, the [[Member Card]] and [[Oak's Letter]]. Following the capture of the Pokémon, the player can merely {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Teleport}} back to a normally-accessible area and resume playing normally. | ||
If the Member Card or Oak's Letter is obtained in the game at a later time, neither Shaymin nor Darkrai will regenerate, and so this is for naught. So far, the [[Mystery Gift]] events for these items have only been available to players of {{game|Platinum}}, from which this anomaly was removed, perhaps because of the lack of need for the event in Diamond and Pearl. | If the Member Card or Oak's Letter is obtained in the game at a later time, neither Shaymin nor Darkrai will regenerate, and so this is for naught.
