The '''surf glitch''' is a [[Generation IV]] glitch best known for enabling the capture of the promotional [[legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Shaymin}}. {{p|Arceus}} cannot be obtained through this method since Arceus is not in a location from which it is possible to get to the [[Sinnoh]] [[The Underground|underground]].

The glitch is activated by using {{m|Surf}} on a door in [[Aaron (Elite Four)|Aaron's]] room in the Sinnoh Pokémon League and walking a specific number of steps to reach the legendary Pokémon's area. This is made easier by the [[Pokétch]]'s step counter. Once the destination is reached and the [[Pokémon]] is [[Captured Pokémon|captured]] or defeated, {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Teleport}} can be used to exit the area and return to normal gameplay. If one has the encounter with Darkrai or Shaymin in their respective places and they capture or defeat them, the player can no longer have an encounter with them through the events that use the Member's Card and Oak's Letter.
