Glitzer Popping
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Glitzer Popping is a subglitch of the Access Pokémon beyond slot 6 subglitch of the Pomeg glitch. As with the latter subglitch, it can only be performed in Pokémon Emerald, Fire Red, and Leaf Green.

This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Copied from "Access Pokémon beyond slot 6" section: Huge amount of information missing; e.g. discuss how scrolling far enough corrupts memory in Storage Boxes 3(?) and onward, segue into how this plus the checksum verification and the related dynamic ordering of Pokemon data substructures can cause certain Pokemon (Eggs) to reliably change species based on the EVs they had, allowing the player to obtain any Pokemon (Glitzer Popping). |
Effects
Glitzer Popping effectively enables the player to obtain arbitrary Pokémon. This is currently the only known method to obtain event-exclusive Pokémon in the Generation III games, as well as the only known method to obtain a large number of glitch Pokémon, at least one of which is known to enable arbitrary code execution.
