'''Teru-sama''' (Japanese: '''カビチュウ''' ''Kabichū'') is a filler for the internal [[item]] list in the [[Generation II]] {{pkmn|games}}. It can be obtained by using [[glitch]]es.
'''Teru-sama''' (Japanese: '''カビチュウ''' ''Kabichū'') is a group of dummy [[item]]s that serve as fillers for the internal item list in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. There are 29 variations of Teru-sama in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} and 25 in {{game|Crystal}}.


Teru-sama can be sold for {{PDollar}}19,660 at [[Poké Mart]]s. The buy price of {{PDollar}}39,321 is 0x9999 in hexadecimal or 9999 in {{wp|binary-coded decimal}} (BCD), the latter being the format used by the [[Generation I]] games for storing money data. The Generation II games instead use plain binary integers for money instead of BCD; however, the buy Teru-sama price uses the old format, suggesting that they were added early in the development of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Gold_and_Silver#Teru-sama Pokémon Gold and Silver - The Cutting Room Floor]</ref>

By performing the [[Celebi Egg glitch]] with a [[move]]'s index number that matches the index number of the item, the player can obtain a Teru-sama. There are 29 variations of it in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} and 25 in {{game|Crystal}}, with three of them having unique effects in all games (when forced to have a "USE" option).
:''See [[List of items by index number (Generation II)]] for the Teru-sama item IDs.''
By performing the [[Celebi Egg glitch]] with a [[move]] ID value equal to that of an item ID, the player can obtain a Teru-sama.

The following Teru-sama become exclusive {{game|Crystal}} [[key item]]s when traded from {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. When viewed in {{g|Stadium 2}}, they show up as the exclusive item from Pokémon Crystal, even if the games connected to the [[Transfer Pak]] are Pokémon Gold and Silver.

In the Korean versions of Pokémon Gold and Silver, these Teru-sama (except for the {{key|II|Egg Ticket}}) were renamed to match Pokémon Crystal but they are otherwise unchanged.
==Effects of specific Teru-sama==
[[File:Labeled Teru-Sama GoldSilver-KOR.png|thumb|Teru-sama 0x46, 0x73, and 0x74 (Korean Gold and Silver)]]
Teru-sama IDs 0x46, 0x73, 0x74, and 0x81 are items in Crystal and {{g|Stadium 2}}. They are respectively the [[Clear Bell]], [[GS Ball]], {{key|II|Blue Card}}, and {{key|II|Egg Ticket}}. Save for 0x81, these Teru-sama were renamed in Korean Gold and Silver to match the names of the corresponding items in Crystal.


{| style="margin:auto; background: #{{gold color dark}}; {{roundy}}; border: 5px solid #{{silver color}};"
Teru-sama IDs 0x06 and 0x38 are respectively the [[Town Map]] and [[Poké Flute]] from {{game4|Red|Green|Blue|Yellow}} and they can be enabled by hacking in the "USE" option. The Town Map is faulty and causes bugs while the Poké Flute still works, although the audio only plays if used on a {{status|Sleep|sleeping}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} outside of {{pkmn|battle}}. The Poké Flute also does not affect the sleeping {{p|Snorlax}} in [[Vermilion City]].

In all the [[Generation II]] games, Teru-sama with index numbers 0x06 and 0x38 actually have an effect after being modified to include the "USE" option onto them, which reveals that they are actually leftover items from the [[Generation I]] games. Teru-sama 0xBE can also be used but it triggers an invalid pointer, indicating that it was likely never intended to support the function.

* Teru-sama 0x06 works as a faulty version of the old [[Town Map]].
* Teru-sama 0x38 is the [[Poké Flute]] and works exactly the same; however, the audio only plays if used on a {{status|Sleep|sleeping}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} outside of {{pkmn|battle}}. It also does not affect the sleeping {{p|Snorlax}} in [[Vermilion City]].

The Japanese name ''Kabichū'' (カビチュウ) is meaningless but it combines ''kabi'' (カビ) from {{p|Snorlax|Kabigon}} (カビゴン) and ''chū'' (チュウ) from {{p|Pichu}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, or {{p|Raichu}}.<ref>[http://wiki.ポケモン.com/wiki/カビチュウ カビチュウ - ポケモンWiki] <small>「おそらくカビゴンのカビとピカチュウのチュウを合わせて開発者の遊び心で造られた言葉と考えられる。」</small></ref>
