===Pokémon meeting level glitch===
In {{game|Crystal}} (but not in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}), the level and time of day when a Pokémon was caught or received is stored in the game data and can be verified by visiting the [[Poké Seer]]. However, this only works correctly for Pokémon caught up to level 63.
This Pokémon meeting data is condensed into a single byte, the upper two bits represent the time it was met, and the lower six bits represent the level it was met. For example, a level 70 Pokémon met in the morning will be reported as a level 6 Pokémon met in the day by the Poké Seer.
This glitch does not normally affect the gameplay for these reasons:
* In Pokémon Crystal, Pokémon obtained from [[in-game trade]]s do not record any Pokémon meeting data.
* Even though a Pokémon could be traded from the earlier [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games, those games did not record the meeting data of any Pokémon.
* There are no other Pokémon available over level 60 in Crystal. In particular, the [[List of wild Pokémon from in-game events|in-game event]] {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}} from earlier games were found either in level 40 or 70 (depending on the game), but both Pokémon are level 60 in Crystal.
