Super Glitch can cause some rather strange effects. The most famous scenario is a chain of events starting with the music slowly fading out before stopping altogether known as the '[[TMTRAINER effect]]'. The opponent's name then changes to "TMTRAINER" followed by several lines of [[glitch]] dialogue, and the {{stat|HP}} of his or her Pokémon rises to a very large value which is often larger than the amount of total HP that the opponent Pokémon has, which causes the HP bar to stretch and wrap around the screen (the fill also instantly jumps from full to empty and vice versa repeatedly without the "fill sliding animation" due to the fact that the calculations to display how much fill in the bar has been overflowed when damaged or healed). It will display that the enemy Pokémon is {{status|poison}}ed, but the game will state that it is {{status|freeze|frozen solid}}, followed by the enemy Pokémon becoming hurt by a {{status|burn}}. This burn will often deplete all of the enemy Pokémon's health, causing the giant HP bar to loop several times before all the HP is depleted, causing it to faint. If the battle is won before the game freezes, the glitch Pokémon that used Super Glitch may grow to a random level (sometimes even exceeding level 100). Also, sometimes many random Pokémon not part of the player's team evolve right after a battle. On such cases, Pokémon that cannot evolve can evolve into themselves.

Super Glitch is possible to activate outside of battle. By having a Pokémon that knows Super Glitch learn another move by level, the glitch will activate, just without the TMTRAINER effect, as you are not in battle. An example of this happening is [[Q◣]], which will learn Mega Punch at level 11. However, if it knows Super Glitch, then the effects will activate as if the player had just exited a battle using the glitch.
