-'''Cloning glitches''' are [[glitch]]es in the [[Pokémon games]] that enables a {{player}} to make an exact copy or "clone" of a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. While a cloning glitch has been found in at least one game of each [[generation]] so far (except [[Generation V]]), the methods to achieve it vary from game to game. Most of these methods involve exploiting the relatively long save times of the Pokémon games to interrupt the [[Save|saving]] process when only a portion of data have been saved successfully. Like most glitches, there are negative side effects, such as the potential loss of the Pokémon to be cloned or even corruption of the saved data.

 ==Generations I and II==
 There are two different methods for cloning Pokémon in the games from Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|II}}, one involving a Pokémon [[trade]], and the other the use of the {{Pkmn|Storage System}}. Even though both are possible in all of the handheld games of these two generations, the trading method is mostly associated with Generation I, and the storage system method with Generation II.

 In [[Generation IV]], a cloning method reminiscent of the methods from the first two generations appeared, involving the use of the [[Global Trade System|GTS]]. If the Pokémon is deposited in the GTS and the connection were to be interrupted at the right time, the Pokémon in question would be both in the player's [[party]] or [[Pokémon Storage System|PC Box]] and in the GTS, requiring the {{player}} only to withdraw the Pokémon from the GTS to obtain the clone. In [[Pokémon Platinum Version]], however, the glitch of cloning via GTS was removed; if attempted, the game simply reported a communication error and returned the player back to the main desk.
-===Pokéwalker===
+Due to the Wi-Fi shutdown, this method is no longer possible.
-When a Pokémon is successfully transferred to the [[Pokéwalker]] but the game is turned off before saving, the Pokémon would appear in both the Pokéwalker and the [[Pokémon Storage System|PC Box]] it was in prior to the transfer. However, attempting to bring the Pokémon in the Pokéwalker back into the game would cause it to be released into the wild, even if the original Pokémon does not exist in the game any more, such as being traded or released. This is because the data of the Pokémon that was transferred was not saved onto the game, thus the game will not recognize the Pokémon that is on the Pokéwalker and release it. (The game only recognizes Pokémon caught from the Pokéwalker and the Pokémon's data that is stored in the game after the transfer. This is to prevent external or third-party devices from 'sending' Pokémon onto the game.)
