Dokokashira door glitch: Difference between revisions

From a new game, the player obtains at least two items, with {{key|I|Oak's Parcel}} in the second slot. The [[bag]] should then be opened and the player should press the Select button on Oak's Parcel, then select ''Cancel'' twice. This will cause the cursor to stay white. A wild {{pkmn|battle}} should be initiated and then the player should open the [[party|Pokémon menu]] and press A while over first Pokémon, thus swapping it with a [['M (FF)]].  The player should open the fight menu, to prevent the game from managing as if there are no Pokémon on the field when the battle ends and then [[escape|run away from]] or win.

To warp to the [[Hall of Fame]], players must complete the above method, then follow this method. From the spot the wild Pokémon was battled, the player should take around ''83'' steps, landing the last step on the door of {{ga|Blue}}'s house in [[Pallet Town]]. The player will warp to {{rt|7|Kanto}}, from where the player should walk to [[Celadon City]], enter the [[Pokémon Center]], immediately exit it, then enter the [[Celadon Department Store]] through the right entrance in the most linear way possible. The player will warp to [[Indigo Plateau|Lance's room]], where the player should proceed through the back door. The player should then walk past {{ga|Blue}}, into the next room. The player will now be in the [[Hall of Fame]], which counts as the player defeating the [[Pokémon League]] and will display the credits. Alternatively, entering the Celadon Condominiums building instead of the Pokémon Center will warp the player right to the Hall of Fame room after entering the Celadon Department Store, although with glitchy graphics.

By traveling 83-87 steps after activating the glitch in {{rt|1|Kanto}} and landing the final step on the door of {{ga|Blue}}'s house, the player will now be in {{rt|7|Kanto}}. Then the player should walk to either the Celadon City Pokémon Center, or the Celadon Condominiums building and immediately walk out and travel an additional 188-191 steps, landing the final step in the right-most entrance of the Celadon Department Store.  

The English name of this glitch stems directly from the Japanese name. "Dokokashira" is a transliteration of the Japanese word "どこかしら", which translates to "somewhere" (or something more close to "somehow," except it specifies a place). The rest of the name is simply a translation of the Japanese name. The Japanese name is taken from the gadget "''Dokodemo-Door''" ("どこでもドア", literally "''anywhere-door''") from the long-running Japanese manga ''Doraemon'', which is widely accepted in Japan. The gadget is a door-shaped machine that takes people to an arbitrary distant place, by entering the destination and just opening it. This was related to the glitch's feature where it makes the {{player}} to warp to distant places after walking through the door into {{ga|Blue}}'s house, except that the destinations are seemingly random - hence getting "Somewhere-door."
