: I really don't know why there's such a debate over this particular glitch. People against the idea that it's a glitch say it's just a way to make it harder for players to avoid the trainers. However the fact they exhibit this abnormal behavior when you hold B, even while sitting still (this is important!), suggest otherwise. There have been games with NPC speed glitches related to a run button before, the best example off the top of my head is Mother/Earthbound Zero.

::The bike speed behaviour alone does appear to be a glitch; however, when you see that there are all these other B button behaviours, many of which are complex enough that they couldn't be unintentional (such as the Celestial Tower Trainers skipping facing the wall and all the different ways the Wellspring Cave Trainers respond to the B button), there is sufficient evidence that the cyclists speeding up due to pressing B is intentional. Even if it is, it is better to assume things are not glitches until there is sufficient reason to believe so. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 15:55, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

==2 New PokéStar Studios glitches==
Excuse me for my lack of wikicode knowledge, but I have discovered 2 new glitches, which are:
*1st, PokéStar Studios U-turn/Volt Switch glitch: When the Pokémon uses U-turn/Volt Switch in a film instead of giving the message "(Pokémon)-went-back-to-(Trainer's name)." it will say instead "(Pokémon)-went-back-to--." (I used - for spaces to show that the name becomes a blank space). This happens whether or not the name is changed in the film. I do not know if this happens with Baton Pass.
*2nd, PokéStar Studios Illusion glitch: When doing a film where your name is based off of the lead Pokémon name, you aloud bring 2 or more Pokémon, and you bring a Pokémon with the ability Illusion in the lead, then the name will change 1-3 times in the film. Times that the name changes are: when the battle starts(becomes copied Pokémon's name), when Illusion is broken (becomes the Pokémon who is using Illusion), when a line choice comes up (becomes copied Pokémon again), and at the end of the film (becomes the name of the Pokémon on the field). The film preview, the film intro, and the credits will still show the correct name though. [[User:TrainerX493|TrainerX493]] ([[User talk:TrainerX493|talk]]) 19:48, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
I tested it and Baton Pass does not any message, so the first glitch only happens with U-turn and Volt Switch.[[User:TrainerX493|TrainerX493]] ([[User talk:TrainerX493|talk]]) 18:22, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
==switch box glitch==
I added this glitch to the list yesterday. just wondering, is it normal for people to just butcher it or was my grammar that bad or something.{{unsigned|Raykyogrou0}}
:Well, your writing style wasn't really encyclopedic, you should write in the third person instead of using "you". And yes, it ''is'' normal to "butcher" other users' edits in a wiki so that they sound better.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#AB0909">電</font><font color="#063A73">禅</font>]]<small>[[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#fff" face="Tahoma"><span style="text-shadow:#000 0.2em 0.1em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Den Zen</span></font>]]</small>''' 10:56, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
::Basically, the wiki is freely editable by everyone, and if you submit text it is completely normal for someone to come along and completely rewrite it. It is also normal for it to left the way it was when submitted for years. It really just depends on the way it was written and how popular the page is. But the main reason your text was so largely edited was, as Dennou mentioned, that it was written in second person (with "you"), which is unencylopedic and should not be used in the mainspace. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:02, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

== Double battle glitch ==
This has happened to me a ton of times. I've been in a double battle and both of my Pokemon faint. When I try to switch out a second Pokemon, it says "(name) cannot be switched out!"
I have to reset each time that happens.
I added it to the page - let me know if this also happens to you.

== Regarding the Sandile glitch that was just added ==
I'm pretty sure I've seen this happen with other Pokemon, actually, sometimes due to their normal animations, sometimes due to the effects of a move animation. I can't remember any off the top of my head, though, but I think Entrainment's wobble-back-and-forth animation can sometimes cause it, for example... Want me to keep an eye out?

== No red X button? ==
In Black's PC box (move pokemon), I noticed that if I went into switch box mode, and then proceeded to change the name of the box, I would return to find that the red "X" in the corner had disappeared!

== Bike Music Glitch ==
When playing White Version a year or two ago, I found a glitch by accident that makes the overworld theme become the Bike music even when the player isn't on the bike. I just posted a video on Youtube describing the glitch, here's what I said about it: "This glitch only seems to work on older DS models, such as the DS and DS Lite, not the DSi models or 3DS models due to their faster processing power, I guess. To make the glitch work, you must go over to a shaking grass spot, quickly get on and off the bike, and walk into the shaking spot. After the battle ends, the bike music will start playing regardless of the player not being on the bike. The reason for me going into the bag was just to show that I wasn't playing a separate music track somewhere else, with the music and sounds coming from the same DS." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iytQYc1-HU&feature=youtu.be
I'm actually surprised that nobody had this happen to them. {{unsigned|E1337Xenos}}
: I've actually discovered a similar but much more minor glitch that works on the DSi. Getting on the bike and immediately changing areas in some places where there's no pause for loading (the southern gate into Skyarrow Bridge works well) will cause the game to play the bike music for a second and then freeze briefly before fixing the music. It also seems like getting on the bike, blasting into a new area and then almost immediately getting into a battle will cause a similar delay before the encounter animation starts, but I'll need to record that to check.

==Battle Subway Continue Gitch==
So I was playing the battle subway (double battles train if it matters) and I was on battle 17. I had to go do something, so I picked the "Rest" option after I beat the match, to pick up later. I got back on about a week later, it says "It's good to see you back" "Would you like to resume your challenge at the Battle Subway?" I picked yes and it went back to the start screen. I was very confused at this point, thinking I might have fat thumbed it, I use my index finger to pick yes, and it still kicked me out to the start menu. At this point I thought, "well, maybe right = wrong and blah blah blah" so I went back in and tried selecting no, and as expected, that option kicked me out to the start screen, a lot faster than picking yes though
so can someone help? I have over 400 hours into the game and almost the full pokedex, I really don't want to reset the game, but I think it's softlocked [[User:Demonickitten|Demonickitten]] ([[User talk:Demonickitten|talk]]) 12:46, 3 April 2019 (UTC)

The only thing I can think of that lead to it was two pokemon were knocked out in the same round but not at the same time. It's not fixable like the other glitch because I cannot select to send out another pokemon. I attempted to select a fainted pokemon and then my non-fainted one again and it didn't fix it.

:Hey! I know this is a super late response, but I just stumbled into this, and I think I might know what the problem is. For you to be in this situation... two of your Pokémon must have fainted in the same turn, right? If I'm not mistaken, the game isn't asking you to pick a second Pokémon to send in - it's asking you to pick the Pokémon you want to replace. The first prompt expects you to choose a Pokémon that hasn't fainted, but the second prompt expects you to choose one of the two Pokémon that was just in battle; it basically just wants to know if it should send out the Pokémon on the left or on the right. (It's a weird and unintuitive mechanic in the context of doubles, but the reason it was added in Gen V is because position makes a difference for Triple Battles; it's definitely an intended feature and not a glitch!) [[User:EpicDeino|EpicDeino]] ([[User talk:EpicDeino|talk]]) 23:12, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
No, that's not it. It will not let me select for the first part of that! I cannot select the pokemon to switch IN, as the only pokemon I have left is already out. Selecting that one will bring up the message of it already battling. However, I cannot move to another prompt/screen from the "select new pokemon" screen.
== Double Battle Glitch in B2W2 ==
This is my first contribution to Bulbapedia, and this is definitely not the first time this topic was brought up (see above). I just needed to confirm that the Double Battle glitch (this happened to me in a triple battle in the PWT) happens in Black and White 2. My Alakazam had 0 HP EVs but held a Focus Sash and was brought down to 1 HP without the Focus Sash activating. When it fainted, I couldn't send any more Pokémon out. {{unsigned|Moreminds2005}}
