===Psywave infinite loop===
If a level 0, 1 or 171 Pokémon uses {{m|Psywave}}, the game will continuously generate pseudo-random numbers, hanging indefinitely. However, this is not an issue in normal gameplay, as Pokémon can only be obtained at these levels via glitches.
If a level 0, 1 or 171 Pokémon uses {{m|Psywave}}, the game will continuously generate pseudo-random numbers, [[softlock|hanging indefinitely]]. However, this is not an issue in normal gameplay, as Pokémon can only be obtained at these levels via glitches.


When a Pokémon uses Psywave, a random number is generated between 0 and 255. If the generated number is greater than or equal to 1.5× the Pokémon's level (rounded down) or it is 0, the number is discarded and a new number generated. As such, there is no number that can be generated for a level 0 or level 1 Pokémon that will not result in the result being discarded and a new number being generated.
