In [[Generation II]], if the opposing Pokémon uses [[Transform glitches#Transform gender change glitch|a glitch to change its own gender]] when it is already infatuated with an opposite-gender Pokémon, the infatuation remains (as a same-gender infatuation). | |||
This is doable if the opponent (a {{pkmn2|wild}} or [[non-player character]]'s Pokémon) uses {{m|Transform}} twice in the same battle, which causes its [[Individual values|DVs]] to be replaced by the player's Pokémon's DVs, and a result its gender changes if the correct DVs for the opposite gender are copied. | |||
