Glitch songs are continuous sounds produced by glitch Pokémon, glitch text strings or game freezes. Glitch songs may either take on a melodic tune or a chaotic one. They are commonly found in the place of a glitch Pokémon's cry. Certain glitch songs may result in a game freeze, while others may force the player to shut off the game because they never end.
Occurrence
Glitch song can be triggered by:
- A glitch Pokémon's cry: ゥ ( Z4's cry is constantly changing and may cause the game to play long strings of sounds.
- Viewing the sprites of certain glitch Pokémon: ♀ .'s front sprite corrupts several sound-related memory areas, often causing an infinite glitch song to play, incorporating one of the channels of Silph Co. music.
- Game crashes: In Pokémon Green, walking out of bounds in Pallet Town may cause a glitch song to play.
- Parts of glitch dialogue: Pokédex entries of certain glitch Pokémon (h POKé or ゥ .4) play long strings of sound effects, and eventually fall into an infinite loop.
