Incorrect [[cheating|cheat codes]] used on cheating devices such as [[Action Replay]] or [[GameShark]] can result in game freezes. On rare occasions, incorrect cheats may possibly render the save file unplayable and permanently damaged. | Incorrect [[cheating|cheat codes]] used on cheating devices such as [[Action Replay]] or [[GameShark]] can result in game freezes.

Game freezes are often accompanied by an odd buzzing sound; however, sometimes the normal music for wherever the player was before the game froze can be heard. Frequently, a loop or constant replay of whatever sound was being played prior to the freeze will be played. Sometimes, a freeze will play no sound, even if there was a sound being played before the freeze. In very rare cases, the music (and not the remaining sounds) can be the only thing to freeze, leaving the game still playable. Sometimes game freezes are accompanied by garbled sprites, various vertical lines and other scrambled graphics pixels. | Game freezes are often accompanied by an odd buzzing sound; however, sometimes the normal music for wherever the player was before the game froze can be heard.

The game [[List of glitches in Generation III#Thunder glitch|may occasionally]] freeze while playing some copies of {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} when a player's Pokémon uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} or {{m|Thunder}}, or when fleeing from a [[wild Pokémon]]; however, cases of the glitch actually occurring are exceedingly rare. The problems caused by the glitch occurring can be rectified by turning off the [[battle effects]]. The moves only cause a temporary repeat of the sound, and it will go away if the Pokémon taking the damage is defeated. | The game [[List of glitches in Generation III#Thunder glitch|may occasionally]] freeze while playing some copies of {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} when a player's Pokémon uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} or {{m|Thunder}}, or when fleeing from a [[wild Pokémon]]; however, cases of the glitch actually occurring are exceedingly rare.
