Celebi Egg glitch: Difference between revisions

At Step 5 of the glitch the player asks a Day-Care person to raise the Bad Clone of ????? (000). That clone will not be taken back until the glitch is finished. After the glitch is finished, that clone will disappear from the Day Care, but on rare occasions, it is possible for that Pokémon to not disappear and remain at the Day Care. In that case the Bad Clone of ????? (000) will be transformed into a Bad Clone of ????? (255). That Bad Clone of ????? (255), similarly to the Bad Clone of ????? (000), cannot be released by the PC, but can still be traded to a Generation I game and released there. It mostly works the same way as the Bad Clone of ????? (000), but it has some differences with it, as it cannot evolve into a {{p|Nidoran♂}}, and if a wild {{p|Ditto}} transforms into the hatched [[Five question marks|????? (255)]], the wild Ditto can be caught normally. Also it learns {{m|Ice Punch}} at LV17 and {{m|Egg Bomb}} at LV44 and it can learn different TMs and HMs from the Bad Clone of ????? (000), for example the Bad Clone of ????? (000) can learn {{m|DynamicPunch}} (TM01) which the Bad Clone of ????? (255) cannot.

Since ????? (000) cannot be seen by the [[Pokémon Storage System|PC]], it cannot be [[Cloning glitch|clone]]d; an Egg that will hatch into it, however, is visible and therefore can be cloned.
