Talk:Berry glitch

Whiat's the 'Celebi Glitch?'--[1]]Sonic Pikachu(No.1fan)[[2]] 16:18, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

It's a "glitch" that allows you to see Celebi in the wild in early English R/S carts, but they're so called "rarer than shinies". Pfff.. v__v; TinaTheKirlia 16:21, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Please help! I get an error saying "Unable to update berry program" ~GT4GTR

And what's with the Pfff? The Celebi glitch is all too real, yet you seem to be insinuating the opposite. I'm Missingno. Master, and I approve this message. 13:42, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Technical Information?

It freezes time, liekly likely due to the internal battery running dry (This happened to me plenty of times).Θρtιmαtum♏_Talk|Links 11:10, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

I believe it has something to do with reprogramming the ROM to use the time a different way, i could be wrong though... (GT4GTR 08:19, 22 December 2008 (UTC))

I'm also very interested in how this patch works. They can't "reprogram the ROM", it's Read-Only Memory. They have to be doing something in the save file. My theories are they suspected this would happen and added a flag in the save file to use alternate code, or they implemented some sort of patching system allowing them to insert code into the save file. I would guess they simply reset the day counter, but then wouldn't it happen again? HyperHacker 05:10, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Still curious about this, also, saving code would be a bad idea, what with the hackers and space constraints. SavageWolf 20:11, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

I had a thought about the cause; it's said to happen after "about 100 hours" of play time? Perhaps 128? If the game were to mistakenly treat this as a signed number, up to 127 would work fine, but 128 would roll over to -128. That could cause some crazy calculation errors.

Some Questions

In game clock - Yes, it does stop

Espeon/Umbreon - Yes, i believe only one can evolve depending on where the time stopped...

Patch from DP - No.

Happens after a year???

This is inaccurate and misleading, it happened to my pokemon ruby after about 3 years and Sapphire's still working today after about 6 years and 300 hours... i think that should bhe changed... (GT4GTR 08:18, 22 December 2008 (UTC))

Anyone??? I'd change it but i don't know what to. (GT4GTR 12:13, 9 August 2009 (UTC))

It says typically. That doesn't mean that the glitch always shows up after a year. Maybe you got lucky. —darklordtrom 23:32, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Fair enough. My sister's uby happened after about 4 or 5 years i think. (GT4GTR 12:14, 10 August 2009 (UTC))

Patching

When can you use the patch? Any time, or only if the glitch has happened? R.A. Hunter B. 04:39, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

The glitch has to occur...otherwise it doesn't work... ^ht14 04:39, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Just making sure my game isn't already patched, as it didn't work. R.A. Hunter B. 04:45, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Feebas

Someone removed the Feebas tidbit. Does it still change everyday? If so, how? ^ht14 02:07, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Feebas changes every day in DP, not RS. In RS it changes with the trendy phrase in Dewford. — THE TROM — 03:39, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Emerald

This glitch seems to have happened in my pokemon emerald game? Is that possible? or is it something else that may be fixed? -- D558 08:41, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Helloooo? anyone? --D558 18:26, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm not sure. When did you get it? - unsigned comment from Owlwinds (talk • contribs)

I don't think it's possible. It's Emerald itself that can fix this issue. Are you SURE it's the glitch? ^ht14 21:45, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

You may not have the berry glitch, it's possible that your internal clock battery has just run dry. ZestyCactus 20:13, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

It must be the battery or it's a small possibility that my game is some sort of great fake redesigned from a Ruby/Sapphire engine or something. I did get the game off eBay. I have linked it with my legit FireRed and LeafGreen, they have done nothing to fix this. Thanks for the responses. -- D558 09:49, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
