If a player is [[Trade|trading]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and one of the handhelds is turned off at a certain time, the Pokémon that was traded to the game that was not turned off will appear in both player's [[Party|parties]]. However, this glitch is very difficult.
If a player is [[Trade|trading]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and one of the handhelds is turned off at a certain time, the Pokémon that was traded to the game that was not turned off will appear in both player's [[Party|parties]]. However, this glitch is very difficult to perform and quite commonly corrupts the [[Saving|save file]].
 
The glitch was eventually demonstrated to be working between Diamond and Pearl in french versions following this steps :
* DS 1 should have the pokemon you want to clone ("A") at first position. DS 2 should have the pokemon that will be erased ("B") at first position.
* Enter the Union Club. DS 2 should start the trade.
* Allow the trade to run until you have the "communication" text at the end of the trade animation. Note the clock which performs around 4 turns, each turn can be separated in 8.
* Shut down DS 1 at 3 turns + 3/8th (it has been shown to work also with 1 and 2/8th). DS 2 should display an error. Press A and see that pokemon A should now be on this game, just as a normal trade. Please note a normal human should press the button when he sees the clock at 3+2/8th, because of the reaction time. Otherwise you will probably miss it.
* Start the other game in DS 2. After the title screen it should also display an error. If not, then it didn't work. I have no idea why it happens sometimes only.
* In the party of the game in DS 1 you should still have Pokemon A. This does not work everytime. Even if you had the error message, it might not have worked. In this case the only thing to do is retry.
Cloning does not work every time and can be long to succeed. However, despite initial statements from unknown sources, it never corrupts the [[Saving|save file]].
