| ===Ghost identity unveiling===
| |
| It is possible to reveal the identity of a {{OBP|Ghost|literal|ghost}} in [[Pokémon Tower]] without having a [[Silph Scope]]. If the player views the [[summary|stats]] of any Pokémon in the [[party]] and then returns to battle, then the ghost's identity will be revealed. However, this glitch is only graphical, and it is still impossible to [[Pokémon battle|fight]] or catch it.

| ===Mimic PP glitch===
| |
| [[File:Mimic Horn Drill PP.png|thumb|right|Horn Drill copied by Mimic with current PP higher than maximum PP<br>(9/5 PP)]]
| |
| In this generation only, moves copied by {{m|Mimic}} have an incorrect value displayed as their maximum PP in the list of moves. The maximum PP displayed is taken from the copied move, when in fact the maximum PP usable in battle is that of Mimic itself. The Pokémon's [[summary]] is unaffected by this glitch, and will display the correct maximum PP for Mimic.
| |
|
| |
| Alternatively, if Mimic was called by {{m|Mirror Move}} or {{m|Metronome}}, then the copied move's maximum PP is that of the move that called Mimic. If Mimic was acquired by {{m|Transform}}, then the move copied by Mimic will use the PP that was given by Transform (instead of using the Pokémon's own PP).
| |
|
| |
| If Mimic (as well as Mirror Move or Metronome) has its PP increased by any [[PP Up]]s, this unused maximum PP displayed is affected by the PP Ups.
| |
|
| |
| For instance, if Mimic copies {{m|Tackle}} and currently has 9 PP, this can be displayed as "<sc>Tackle</sc> 9/35" (where "35" is Tackle's maximum PP with no PP Ups) or possibly "<sc>Tackle</sc> 9/56" (where "56" is Tackle's maximum PP with three PP Ups, which would be the value displayed if in fact the user's Mimic has three PP Ups). In cases like these, items such as [[Ether]] or [[Elixir]] can heal up to Mimic's true maximum PP, not up to the incorrect maximum PP displayed in battle.
| |
|
| |
| Conversely, it is also possible to have more PP than the incorrect maximum value displayed. For example, if Mimic copies {{m|Horn Drill}} and currently has 9 PP, this can be displayed as "<sc>Horn Drill</sc> 9/5" (where "5" is Horn Drill's maximum PP, with no PP Ups)
| |
|
| |
| This glitch was fixed in the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], where the moves copied by Mimic have their maximum PP correctly displayed. In {{jap|Pokémon Stadium|Japanese Pokémon Stadium}} and its sequel {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, Mimic's current and maximum PP (alternatively, those of Mirror Move or Metronome if applicable) are displayed for the moves copied by Mimic.

| |
| {{incomplete|section|Is this present in Japanese Stadium and English Stadium?}}
| |
|
| |
| If a poisoned/burned Pokémon with low HP is confused and in the next turn loses its HP, the HP will be 0, but before it faints, the message and the animation of the poison/burn will appear, although the Pokémon doesn't have any HP. This also happen with a move which reduces the user's HP, like Take Down. This was fixed in Pokémon Gold/Silver.

| ===Substitute and Minimize glitch===
| |
| If the enemy uses Substitute or Minimize and the player goes to view the stats of any Pokémon and then return to the battle, the sprites will be changed. The enemy will have the sprite of the Pokémon's player but broken, and the Pokémon of the player will have the Substitute or Minimize sprite. The sprite of the rival can change if the player goes to view the stats of any Pokémon in the team.

| ===Whirlwind text box overflow===
| |
| In these games, if the player's Pokémon uses {{m|Whirlwind}} on an enemy Pokémon with 5 characters in its name, the exclamation mark character overlaps with the border of the text box. This was corrected in the Japanese version of {{game|Yellow}} with the addition of a line break.
