List of glitches (Generation V): Difference between revisions

This is a '''list of glitches''' that occur in the [[Generation V]] [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]].

The tiles on the center and right of the door on the inside of the Café Warehouse say "It looks like a cabinet full of Pokémon goods." when the A Button is pressed while facing them.

If the player is in the middle of a move that inflicts damage over several turns consecutively (such as {{m|Rollout}}), and the [[Gym Leader]] sends out their last Pokémon, the battle music will not change until after the duration of the move ends. This is because the Gym Leader does not come out to speak, which is what cues the music change.

===Landing on person or item===

When {{m|Surf}}ing, by moving towards a tile directly adjacent to an NPC or item that is adjacent to [[water tile|water]], then quickly pressing the D-pad to dismount onto the NPC or item, the player will be standing on top of it. However, this won't occur if the person is moving.

When selecting Liberty Garden while using Fly, its green dot is filled red, as if it could be flown to, unlike other locations represented by the same symbol. This indicates that it may have been intended to be a location which could be flown to in the [[beta]] versions.

In the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|sequels]] however, all locations marked by green squares turn red.

[[File:Opelucid Gym glitch.png|frame|right|The player floating one tile to the north of the slope]]

On the sloping part of the path before the first dragon's tail in [[Opelucid Gym]], the two tiles directly up and down can be walked on, leaving the player walking on the air.

{{-}}

In front of both of the "certified Trainers" pedestals in the [[Opelucid Gym]] is an empty tile that cannot be walked on. This tile is considered by the game to be the pedestal, and can be interacted with rather than the pedestal itself, and acts just like it. Despite this, the space taken by the visible pedestal cannot be walked on.

In Opelucid Gym, none of the tiles behind the [[warp tile]] behind the [[Gym Leader]] can be walked on.

On B3F of the [[Relic Castle]], near the drop point from the hole closest to the correct drop point to B2F, there is a non-solid wall tile. It is on the wall one tile to the left of the wall directly to the south of this drop point.

If a Pokémon holding a [[Sitrus Berry]] hurts itself from confusion, and reaches under half of its max HP through the damage, then its Sitrus Berry will not activate until another form of damage is dealt.

===Sky Drop glitch===

This glitch can only occur in [[Double Battle|Double]] and [[Triple Battle]]s. It is activated when Gravity is used while two Pokémon are in the semi-invulnerable state after Sky Drop is used. Gravity will bring the user of Sky Drop down, while the target will be stuck in the semi-invulnerable state, unable to move until it is knocked out.

An old woman in [[Driftveil City]] talks one text speed slower than the selected text speed. If the text speed is set to slow, she speaks even slower than usual in the slow speed setting. This is due to her missing a large section of code, and is not intentional.

[[File:TM67 Retaliate glitch.png|frame|right|Menu screen of TM67 in the Japanese versions]]

In Japanese versions of {{game|Black and White|s}}, {{TM|67|Retaliate}} appears as a {{type|Dark}} TM, despite the move being {{type|Normal}}.

If a Pokémon has an effective speed greater than 1809, it will ignore the effects of {{m|Trick Room}}, and act before slower Pokémon.

===Walking Trainer glitch===

When blocking the path of certain Trainers who walk in a loop, if their path is blocked at a corner so that they cannot change direction, they will continue walking in the direction they were slowly and without turning, so as to appear to be walking into nothing, but behaving as if they are walking into a wall.

===Ace Trainer Summer glitch===

{{youtubevid|n6x8-3A3xj8|ProfessorWess|water}}

In [[Floccesy Ranch]], there is a tile that appears to be a [[tall grass]] tile, but is instead a normal tile. Wild Pokémon cannot be encountered in it (even with {{m|Sweet Scent}} or [[Honey]]). Unlike actual tall grass tiles, the bottom of the player's sprite is not covered by the grass when standing on it, and it does not make a noise when the player steps on it.

{{youtubevid|lXTeeiPNcwk|Mucrush|grass}}

In [[Floccesy Town]], in [[seasons|winter]], behind the house immediately east of the Pokémon Center is a tile that behaves as a [[snow tile]], but appears as a normal tile. Stepping on the tile produces the sound normally produced when stepping in snow, and footsteps can be seen to be left behind upon stepping on it. The tile is located 1 tile northeast of the northwest corner of the house.

In the [[Giant Chasm]], there is a row of trees that can be walked through.

===Habitat glitch===

If the player reads [[Mail]] held by a Pokémon, then views the summary of any Pokémon in their party, the description of its Ability will disappear. The description returns if the player changes to any screen but the one displaying that Pokémon's Ability.

In the ruins of [[N's Castle]], the player can get a copy of N to appear. One N will follow the player around, while the other will stand still and can be talked to as normal. Since the player is being followed by a copy of N, this glitch prevents the player from flying or fighting in battles.

When going through [[Reversal Mountain]] for the first time, if the player enters the dungeon from the left side, causing [[Bianca]] to follow them, then goes through the southernmost exit and comes back inside, returning to the start of the cave, but not leaving the mountain entirely, Bianca will ask to split up. The player will then move to the next screen, where if they then use either an [[Escape Rope]] or {{m|Dig}} they will exit back to the southernmost point. Returning to the main part of the cave will cause Bianca's dialogue box to appear, but for her to be out of sight. After walking around for a while, she will eventually catch up, but may travel through walls in the process.

===Pokéstar Studios surfable tree===

The beginning of the glitch is at 2:00 and ends at 2:42, with the results of the glitch being shown from 2:26 to 2:42.

A minor bug occurs in the Pokémon World Tournament building. In a section of the building, there is a spot for the last important NPC the player has battled in for the Semifinals, Quarterfinals, and the Opening Round. If a player battles an important NPC, then in the next tournament battles the same NPC but in a different position and an unimportant NPC in the same position as the important NPC was in the first round, the important NPC will be shown in two different spots.

The beginning of the glitch is at 0:14 and ends at 1:59, with the results of the glitch being shown from 1:51 to 1:59.

===Rondez-View Ferris Wheel glitch===

{{incomplete|section|video, specifics}}

For example, [[N]] can be observed speaking about [[Hugh]]'s younger sister as if she was his, and then turns into Hugh when riding the Ferris Wheel, then turns back into N when he gets off.

If a Pokémon behind a {{m|substitute}} faints from {{a|Rough Skin}} or [[Rocky Helmet]], the defending Pokémon will appear to be behind a substitute, but will function as normal.

===Route 19 non-solid wall===

{{youtubevid|8I2pMi5niK0|Kaphotics|rock}}

[[File:White Forest tree glitch.png|frame|right|The tree lacking a shadow as seen in the upper left corner]]

One of the trees in [[White Forest]] to the left of the entrance to the White Treehollow does not have a shadow underneath it.

{{-}}

===Assist Egg glitch===

When {{m|Assist}} is used, it can use the moves of unhatched {{pkmn|Egg}}s in the party.

===Box change glitch===

If a Pokémon is selected, then the Box is changed by tapping the Box name and using the "Switch Box" option, when changing back to the original Box the selected Pokémon's menu sprite will be invisible.

If a Pokémon that has its form changed by an item ({{p|Giratina}}, {{p|Arceus}}, or {{p|Genesect}}) and its item is removed while it is under the effect of the glitch, the proper menu sprite will show, ending the glitch.

If the player has another page of Wonder Cards following the page they are viewing, and moves the cursor over to "Back" and taps the bottom screen, the cry of the Pokémon in the first slot of the next page can be heard.

{{incomplete|section|Needs a video, cause}}

When zooming in on an enemy's Conkeldurr for any reason, the bottom portion of Conkeldurr's pillars will disappear underneath its platform. After zooming back into regular zoom though, the missing portion of Conkeldurr's pillars will return. This also happens when Conkeldurr faints while its cry is playing.

In [[Icirrus Gym]], there are three rocks which are not solid—they can be walked on. Using one of these rocks, in {{2v2|Black|White}}, it is possible to reach [[Brycen]] without battling {{tc|Black Belt}} Thomas.

===Kadabra trade glitch===

While Pokémon with a yellow HP bar have a distorted [[cry]] to match their low {{stat|HP}}, Pokémon with a red HP bar have the same cry as Pokémon with a green HP bar.

Likewise, if the player rides to a different area after getting on the [[bicycle]], the music will change from the cycling theme to that location's music. However, if the player then saves and resets, the cycling music will play.

Variable scoring is not affected by this.

When the player uses {{m|Dig}} or an [[Escape Rope]] while [[Bicycle|cycling]] (cycling music must be playing) or {{m|surf}}ing while below the first floor in [[Wellspring Cave]], [[Chargestone Cave]] or [[Challenger's Cave]] and travels to [[Pinwheel Forest]], [[Moor of Icirrus]] or the [[Desert Resort]], the music will play with a lower pitch and tempo, as if the player was in an underground floor. Reentering the affected area will revert the music back to normal, as will surfing or using the bicycle.

At the path in [[Nimbasa City]] leading to the [[Join Avenue]]/[[Gate|Nimbasa Gate]], there are several lights on the ground. Usually when the player steps on these their shadow appears under the lights; however, when stepping on the light closest to the Join Avenue/Gate on either side, the player's shadow appears on top of them.

This glitch only works in cities and towns that can be {{m|Fly|flown}} or {{m|teleport}}ed to with variable scoring dependent on the player's location in the area; specifically, [[Nacrene City]] (accordion player), [[Icirrus City]] (clapping group walking in a circle), and [[Opelucid City]] (keytar/erhu player). If the player is in the area that the variable scoring is active, and flies or teleports to that same city or town, the variable scoring will be active until the music is changed, regardless of the player's location within the city or town. Likewise, if the player is in an area where the variable score is not active and flies or teleports to that city or town, the variable score will not activate until the music is changed.

When encountering a wild {{p|Sandile}}, its lower jaw will clip through the terrain it is standing on the first time it opens its mouth.
