===Generation II===
*In Japanese Pokémon Crystal, specifically pertaining to the [[Mobile System GB]] service, there is code at the [[Battle Tower]] which turns [[glitch Pokémon]] and [[glitch move]]s into {{p|Smeargle}} or {{m|Sketch}}.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6Q0C-krmj8 YouTube video by ChickasaurusGL]</ref> This code is also leftover in the localised versions but believed to be unused. Further details on other error prevention methods are unclear, and the Mobile System GB service is long defunct. There is similar code in the [[Battle Pike]] in Pokémon Emerald, which also converts illegal moves into {{m|Sketch}}.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnskuvQ05I0 YouTube video by TeruTeruSky]</ref> The code also has a minor flaw.<ref[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G5fGLbDhwk YouTube video by ChickasaurusGL]</ref> There is a similar trap related to the PokéCom Center which attempts to fix faulty nicknames, OTs, mail contents and mail authors. It is again leftover, but is glitched in the English version because it uses [[Character encoding in Generation II|a different character table]] and the maximum name lengths are different.

*In {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, but not [[Pokémon Crystal Version]] there is a specific event where [[Claire]] will not accept a [[Dragon Fang]] that wasn't obtained in [[Dragon's Den]]; accusing the player of cheating to get it (however, it is not in the context of using a cheating device or glitch, because the Dragon Fang can be obtained on a traded Pokémon).<ref>[https://twitter.com/pikasprey/status/1361095930158731266?lang=en> Tweet by Pikasprey]</ref>

*There is code to prevent a Pokémon that is over level 100, or is an [[unstable hybrid Pokémon]], or has (internally stored) types which do not match between Generation I and II from being traded, though this may be seen as more error prevention rather than anti-cheat.
