==In [[Generation I]]==
The "'''Cut glitch'''" can be used to refer to two different glitches in the Pokémon [[Version|main series]] games involving the move {{hm|01|Cut}}, one of which being more severe than the other.
===Hall of Fame Glitch===
[[Image:Halloffameglitches.png|thumb|right|160px|Examples of corrupted Hall of Fame entries.]]
{{main|Missingno.#Glitches caused|Missingno.}}
When Missingno. has been seen on the save file, the player's [[Hall of Fame]] is badly corrupted with entirely different Pokémon, even [[glitch Pokémon]], and very glitched characters, names and levels. This does not affect the Pokémon themselves, rather the data seen in the Hall of Fame.
 
===Man on the roof===
If one does not have the [[List of key items in Generation I#Secret_Key|key]] to the [[Cinnabar Gym]], and {{m|surf}}s on the east coast and returns to land directly in front of the gym, a man will appear on the roof of the gym. A similar effect happens if the player walks into the [[Vermilion Gym]], walks directly left and then up so that they are facing the bottom-left trash can and press A to inspect it, or if the player is in the gatehouse to [[Route 17|Cycling Road]]. One of the trainers in the gym will be misplaced and return to his usual spot once the text box disappears, and when in the gatehouse there may be a man standing on an object somewhere behind the guard.
 
===Prevented progress===
If the player's [[starter Pokémon]] evolves before they obtain their [[Pokédex]] from Prof. Oak, the game will assume that, since they have 2 Pokémon registered as caught, that they already have a Pokédex, and will not allow them to proceed. This glitch is only present in the Japanese {{v|Red and Green|s}}.
 
===Invisible PC===
There is a hotel in [[Celadon City]] that resembles a [[Pokémon Center]] on the inside. In the top-right space of the area that the player can walk on, there is an invisible, usable PC.
 
===Fishing in Statues===
The player can use a [[Fishing|Fishing Rod]] when facing the right or left of a gym statue. It will always say "Looks like there's nothing in here...", except in the [[Cerulean Gym]], where all the [[Pokémon]] obtainable in the gym can be caught.


==Glitch one==
===Q Glitch===
This more severe glitch of the two allows the {{player}} to get stuck on top of a cuttable tree. This glitch is present in Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}. In order to perform the glitch, the player must have the [[Gym Badge]] allowing the use of {{m|Cut}} (the {{badge|Cascade}} in [[Kanto]]; the {{badge|Hive}} in [[Johto]]), and {{hm|01|Cut}} taught to a member of the [[party]].
{{main|Q#Duplication trick/Merge Trick|Q Glitch}}
<!--Details-->
[[Q]] and [[Charizard 'M]] enable a player to swap Pokémon's moves. It involves depositing Q and other Pokémon into Bill's PC in a certain order, and then when they are retrieved, the Pokémon's moves and stats will be transferred from one Pokémon to another.


If, upon cutting down the tree, the player saves the game while standing in the spot where the tree originally stood before being cut down, and turns off the power, he or she will find their avatar standing on top of a tree when the game is reloaded.  
===Cut glitch===

{{main|Cut glitch}}
====Stuck in tree====
If the player cuts down a tree, stands on the spot, saves, turns the game off, then loads it, the player will be standing on a tree. The player will be stuck unless the player has a Pokémon with {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Teleport}}.


In some cases, the player may find that he or she is permanently stuck on the tree. The only remedy for this is that the game be restarted.
====Invisible tree====
There is a tree near the bottom of [[Route 14]]. If this particular tree is cut down and then the player walks five steps west from where the tree was (so that the spot where the tree used to be is at the edge of the screen) and then walks back their path will be blocked as if a tree was still there. Even though the tree is not visible, it can still be cut down normally using the move {{m|Cut}}.


===Mechanics===
===Level 1 Pokémon===
This glitch occurs because the games' primitive save systems could not store the data needed to remember that the tree had been cleared.
{{main|Mew glitch#Level 1 Pokémon|Level 1 Pokémon}}
Level one Pokémon were usually unobtainable in [[Generation I]]. This glitch allowed a level 1 Pokémon to be caught which were not programmed correctly and some would "jump" to level 100 after gaining experience.


Due to an overhaul in the way this data is stored starting with [[Generation III]], this glitch has not been present in any games from Generation III onwards.
===Stuck in Wall===
If the player lures an NPC into the grass above [[Pallet Town]], she will block the player from following [[Professor Oak]] correctly, causing the player to become stuck in the wall of Oak's laboratory.


==Glitch two==
===0 ERROR===
This glitch is a minor glitch in [[Generation I]] involving a tree near the bottom of [[Route 14]].
{{main|0 ERROR}}
A glitch similar to the [[Mew glitch]] that causes [[Route 6]] to become glitched.


If this particular tree is cut down and then the player walks five steps west from where the tree was (so that the spot where the tree used to be is at the edge of the screen) and then walks back their path will be blocked as if a tree was still there. Even though the tree is not visible, it can still be cut down normally using the move {{m|Cut}}.
===Error codes===
[[File:59 Error.png|thumb|right|220px|A 59 Error]]
{{main|Error codes}}
In Pokémon Red and Blue, there are several error codes that appear when the game is not functioning correctly. Problems such as these often crop up when the game's memory access is corrupted or when experimenting with glitches such as the [[Mew glitch]]. Usually, when an error code appears, the game does not freeze and the player is allowed to continue playing the game without [[Soft resetting|resetting]]. Occasionally [[Error codes#Mixed errors|mixed errors]] occur.
