:::When transformed, the game enables a "Transformed" flag on the transformed Pokémon that (in Gen 1 only) will be checked when the wild Pokémon is caught, and if its enabled, the transformed Pokémon (even if it is a Pokémon who [[Cheating|cannot legally learn the move]]) automatically becomes a Ditto regardless of its original species. This leads to an interesting quirk with {{gp|'M (00)}} where when the game checks the "Transformed" flag to determine if the caught Pokémon was transformed (and therefore turned into a Ditto), it is glitched so that the battle continues even after 'M was caught, catching the invisible remainder of the [[Glitch Pokémon]] will reveal that the Pokémon continuing the battle was a Ditto, this happens because the "Transformed" flag is set to an invalid value, causing the game to not only think that the newly caught 'M was transformed, but also not at the same time, resulting in a Ditto replacing the 'M but since catching a Pokémon removes a big area of the screen (the space that the wild Pokémon is), resulting in the Ditto being invisible (even though the screen gets reloaded because of the Pokédex entry, it actually doesn't, because this only happens on first catch of a 'M and the Pokédex appears above the battle screen rather than changing it) and the battle continues. <small>- ''totally signed comment from [[User:Kirbychu Showdown|Kirbychu Showdown]] ([[User talk:Kirbychu Showdown|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Kirbych_Showdown|contribs]])'' </small> 20:20, 9 December 2021 (UTC) (sorry if this was a bit lengthy, I was trying to make a point with the reason why Gen 1 causes a caught Pokémon that is transformed to turn into a Ditto regardless of the original species) | |||
