The Mega Blaziken using Ice Punch isn't the first time they made a mistake with the promotional material. When showing off the new Fairy type before X and Y were released, they showed a Gardevoir OHKO-ing a Hydreigon with Fairy Wind, the weakest Fairy-type move, to show off that both Dark and Dragon would be weak to Fairy and probably also that existing Pokemon such as Gardevoir would have the Fairy typing retconned onto them since it looks like even with STAB, it would take a disparity in at least one of IVs/EVs for a non-crit Fairy Wind from Gardevoir to even have a chance of oneshotting a Hydreigon...if Gardevoir actually learned Fairy Wind, which it doesn't.

In Gen 4, Fire Fang will hit any Pokémon with Wonder Guard no matter if it should have hit or not.

MY EEVEE EVOLVED INTO VAPOREON IN POKEMON BLUE WITHOUT A WATER STONE AND I NEVER KNEW WHY UNTIL NOW. I've learned about tons of glitches in the original games but I never encountered an answer to this question until this video years later. Thanks PaPaSea!

Very minor, but in Gen 2s Burned Tower, there's a trainer named Firebreather Dick whose overworld sprite turns grey after you beat him

The first one is just because onix is made up of stone and there is just a waterstone semwhere stuck in him so when you switch from onix into staryu it touches it for a moment what makes it evolve

Oh another mistake! There’s a trainer in Emerald who has a Lunturn that knows Earthquake even though that has never been possible. There are a number of “impossible moves” Pokémon throughout the series, but that one is my favorite.

Another mistake in the main series games I can think of, is the skip you could do with the guy who blocks you from entering Sunnyshore City earlier than intended, in BDSP. If you hatched an egg on the exact step you entered the sight range of that NPC that would normally have you pushed back by him, he won't stop you, and allow you to walk past him, allowing you to skip the Spear Pillar scenario entirely. I heard about this glitch when someone brought it up in Pikasprey's live chat during his stream of BDSP, and he tried it and it worked. Thing is, if you progress too far in the game after skipping the events of Spear Pillar through this method, I hear you will not be able to go there to complete Spear Pillar's events. I cannot remember though wherever the point of no return after using this glitch is after defeating Volkner, or beating the Champion

Still wild to me that the Gen 1 games sometimes just didn’t show both types for a dual-type Pokémon. I genuinely thought dual-types were a new addition in Gen 2 because of that one.

In the credits for Sword & Shield, you could see a cursor go along the Maximizers' performance.

One funny bug I ran into when playing Scarlet is that if you approach the Fairy Team Star base from the water, the cutscene where you talk to Clive will start with your character very slowly trudging out of the water, THROUGH Clive, and off-screen before snapping back to the correct position to continue the scene. Whole thing takes around a minute to play out, but didn't seem to affect anything afterward.

3 MISTAKES in 33 MISTAKES in Pokemon Games! video! At 7:02, the word "rules" is mistakenly read as "ruins". It's unknown if the developers missed this, or if it's a reference to the Solaceon Ruins which also made their debut in these games.

My favorite glitch is the boulder duplication in Hoenn discovered by a fish.

Gold and Silver had an error with one of the apricorn balls. I think it was the moon ball. It would have worked on something that evolved with a burn heal but no Pokémon evolves that way. And some of the balls would work on stuff you can’t encounter in the wild There’s a tile in pokestar studios in B2W2 you can surf on They also showed Gardevoir in XY’s trailer using a move it couldn’t learn iirc

The lets go one is actually throughout the entire game. Every battle that your rival uses an item, it's coded to read "you used" every battle

An interesting mistake from Gen 2 is that most of the apriballs don't work as intended. Such as: The Moon Ball works on pokemon that evolve with a burn heal and so on. Awesome video!

Legends Arceus saying you caught the pokemon unawares is still funny to me

The first FRLG mistake I ever noticed was when you meet Janine in Fuchsia after beating the League but her name is provided as Charine

Imagine being a kid, playing red/blue and your eevee you were training all of a sudden becomes a Vaporeon. That could have been either really cool or really tragic depending on what you wanted...

In that double battle with the error of one of the trainers says a jumbled mess I thought this wasnt a mistake as a kid, I thought he was just so shocked that I defeated him that he just couldn't speak right

my favorite glitch in BDSP has to be going into the void to get event legendaries... mainly because that was in the original Sinnoh region...

In the Unova games in the deeper parts of the Giant Chasm, there is a line of trees that you can walk through

In SwSh there are Unused Physical Attack animations in the Pokedex for all Gigantamax Forms before the Isle of Armor. These dont get used in battles due to the game switching to Special Attack animations only once a Dynamax Pokemon is on the field. Tge exceptions are for Pokemon like Reshiram that have a unique animation once they use a specific move, like Fusion Flare for Example

I experienced the Cherrim glitch in Legends firsthand. Was streaming it on Twitch and bumped into one and I spent like 5 minutes trying to throw Poké Balls at it, and it kept popping out, so I assumed it was a bug because of how it was happening, but I wasn't sure what the bug was, makes sense it was tied to the transformation

ONE MORE: In Gen 5 (I can’t remember if it’s in BW or BW2) there’s an NPC, a grandma, that always talks at one speed slower than you have set. If you have it set to slow, she talks even SLOWER. I’m fairly certain she’s in the town that you can receive N’s Zorua in.

5:50 My favorite example is Jynx being the HUMAN POKéMON. One in BDSP that I'm not sure was patched or not is when you first enter Sunnyshore and immediately press left, you will walk backwards and Flint will talk to your back, so it looks like you're ignoring him.

one of biggest mistakes is weavile's and skuntank's moveset

11:50 I like to think that has in-game logic where Regieleki is so beyond-godly fast that Trick Room is just not powerful enough to work on it 😂 sorta like Kaioken Blue Goku breaking through Hit’s time-skip

"Mistakes happen, even for Pokémon " could honestly be * especially for Pokémon lately😂

Another issue in ORAS is when you walk using the circlestick, then switch to the D-pad, your character will do the “take off rollerskates” hop they do in XY. It’s really odd.

7:00 as yes, the ruiner of space and time Dialga and Palkia. On brand with the mistakes compilation.

"Let's move on to Briliant Diamond & Shining Pearl, and some may argue these games themselves are a mistake" That hit very close to home

"The Pokemon that *ruins* space" Ah yes, those pesky Palkias, always ruining perfectly good space. And don't even get me started on those Dialgas, they ruin time something fierce!

Technical using onyx is still a stone evolution XD

The thing with the XY daycare sign is intentional- it's to avoid lagging because usually players will run with their bikes up and down there, and the sign would probably cause the game to lag if the function was implemented with just how fast the bike is and needing to turn your head to the sign while at it

In B2W2, wasn't there a spot of trees at the PokerStars Studios where you could Surf? And I love the little glitch for Legends Arceus that lets you duplicate getting Grit items for releasing Pokemon.

A mistake in BDSP is that the games actually have flags that determine what version it is instead of using separate roms.

In SV there was an oversight on the items gotten during event tera raids with Great Tusks and Iron Treads trying to give their tm material but that do have a item to give so it gave "None" and crashed the game immediately after the raid also random tera type iron treads raids were shiny locked while all other raids were able to be shiny

I actually noticed the Let's go full restore mistake. When I saw it, I thought "Wtf, I didn't use one, my rival did! Wait, did I actually lose one?" and checked the bag.

Can confirm, the Egg nickname mistake is also functional in Scarlet/Violet - sincerely, someone who named their Frigibax 'Egg'

In Black and White 2, if you are inside a Hidden Grotto and your Repel runs out right before the exit, you can't leave the HG unless you take a step upwards before trying to leave

Didn’t sword and shield have a mouse cursor in the credits?

In Pokemon Stadium 2 when Bugsy's Heracross uses Megahorn he calls it Megaphone lol.

That glitch in BDSP in Candice's Gym, is like, the only glitch I've used in BDSP. Everything else I've intentionally done in that game was the intended thing to progress. I just didn't feel like tackling all of Candice's Gym Trainers on a sliding on ice Gym puzzle before fighting her, because ice physics are not fun. There IS a glitch in that game though that I've done many times, that I never intend to use. If on the "pause menu" you cycle between it and the menus you can access through it, too fast, it's possible that the game will fail to display the text on the pause menu explaining something, and just lock up entirely, forcing you to close and reopen the game to play. Thank goodness I have autosaves on at times when I accidentally trigger that glitch

One that I recently learned: If a Pokémon that can evolve by friendship is transferred to a different game using Pokémon Bank, it will be blocked from being able to evolve through friendship. Found out the hard way with my Azurill ribbon master.

Because of Walking Wake and Iron Leaves Event Dens being brought up in this vid, can we talk about the Tusks and Treads Event that tried to call nonexistent Pokemon Materials for these Paradox Pokemon?

in pokémon black and white, there’s a glitch i found in the ice gym where you can slide inside of a rock with no collision

I had a weird glitch happen to me in Scarlet and Violet that I know Absolblogspokemon has covered as well. I was doing a Titan Pokémon battle and at the end of it there’s an intentional cutscene I guess I would call it where you see your Pokémon that won the battle, well my Wooper evolved during that battle so it evolved to Clodsire but then next to it was a Wooper, and then it cuts to that Wooper as being the one that won the battle lmao

I remember years ago hearing that in either one of the gen one games or its remakes there's a line of dialogue that has a lower case 'L' in place of an upper case 'i'

I can't remember if this happens with all of her pokemon or just some, but in X and Y if you use Aura Sphere against at least some of Drasna's pokemon black bars will show on screen when the animation plays, though I have no idea if this was ever patched or not

Is not really related to Pokémon, but in an official Italian Nintendo Magazine dedicated to Pokémon Platinum, "Cyrus" is named "Ciro" instead, despite being called "Cyrus" in the game. And... nothing, it's funny.

Fire Fang ignoring Wonder Guard is so cool, as well as Pokémon being fast enough to ignore Trick Room.

stone glitch is wild this is my first time hearing about it

On legend arceus, when you use shadow force with a shiny giratina in origin form the game simply crashes

In ORAS's German language,the Hiker who gives the TM for Flash calls it a VM,the full name is supposedly Versteckte Maschine and the translation is for Hidden Machine instead of the letters for Technical Machine as it should be which leaves it as TM(The word for it is supposedly Technische Maschine but I don't speak a lot of German so apologies if I got either word wrong)

The Trainer won't look at the daycare sign. Maybe Calem & Serena just don't care about the pok'emon daycare house and find it worthless.

I feel like a big mistake you forgot to mention is when Game Freak allowed Scarlet and Violet to be released that unfinished.

10:16 that's what Mimikyu shows upon first seeing it in the haunted house, like it's trying to evolve into Pikachu but something stopped it

Pokemon makes mistakes.... you dont say? Finally the third eye opens

12:37 The gym leader is called Glacia.

I like how the cute little Pokémon on the thumbnail seems to have an expression like, “can’t catch me! Wee!”

Another one in Legend Arceus: in battle with wild Pokémon, especially with multiple ones, sometimes the name or level of an opposing Pokémon wouldn’t be displayed. Not sure if it’s a glitch or mistake but it’s still fun.

In the gen 2 games, the Pokeballs made from Apricorns are messed up and don't do what they're supposed to, thanks to mistakes in the coding.

There’s a typographical mistake in BW2 where if you show a tiny Pokemon to a Youngster in Accumula Town, he will say “Wow! Amazing! a ( Pokemon species name ) is so tiny!”

There is a very specific tree in PokéStar studios you can surf on

In gen 9, you could get the "None" item from Great Tusk and Iron Treads raids, which crashed the game after exiting the raid victory screen

9:05 That's not the only error, they also forgot the word "in."

In generation 3 they made a change to prevent soft locks where you cant release your last HM capable pokemon. However, due to an oversight you can put it in the day care and softlock yourself on an island or no possible way to make money. Though the chances of softlocking yourself by accident this way is very slim due to the huge setup required to make it a softlock. Still a mistake. If you want to mess with your friends heres an easy softlock using this method. First have a pokemon with teleport then progress until you reach pacifilog town. Do not pick up any fishing rods. Heal at the pokemon center then go store your two surf and fly pokemon in the day care. Release all other pokemon besides the teleport pokemon. Discard all items and spend all money. Teleport back to pacifilog and save. Hand the game to a friend. Once you save you're stuck in that tiny area forever with nothing to do. You can't surf or fly out, you have no money to buy pokeballs and even if you did you couldn't catch any pokemon because of no fishing rod. That save is eternally trapped there.

In Gen 7, they mistakenly gave Gengar a different ability. Kinda weird that it never got fixed

I always kinda like to brag when watching these sort of knowledge videos about pokemon, because usually I already have learned about what's said in the video at some point before. This whole video just had me in awe at how little I really know about the games 😢

In the version 1.1.0 update to BDSP, the PokeRadar item randomly got nerfed. Instead of the normal rates for the chain continuing, it had a lesser chance of it continuing. It was fixed in 1.2.0, restoring the normal rates. 1.0.1 to 1.2.0: 64/74/84/94. This was the normal rates for PokeRadar. 1.1.0: 54/64/74/84. These were the nerfed rates.

Dialga and Palkia... "ruin" space and time? lmao what?

Fairy lock in Gen 8 Sword and Shield used to freeze and crash the game when used in online battle.

I call that Trick Room Speed glitch “Tricking the Trick Room” as well as “Outspeed the Trick Room”.

I personally always loved the mistake of the trainer in gen 1 (cinnabar island) telling you that the Raichu you traded to them had evolved. Admittedly I found out later this was because originally Raichu was intended to be able to evolve to Gorochu (I really wish they'd made that a thing!), but still, it never failed to amuse me as a kid playing this game because "Dude... how?!"

I remember in the early days of bdsp it was possible to get stuck behind npcs in a city (I think veilstone) and no matter what you did they wouldnt move so you had to restart your game.

This is pretty unrelated to the video, just wanted to give you another thanks for that chat we had over alcohol sponsorship a while ago. It's still a struggle, but that interaction has really helped me not drink just knowing that someone cared like that. Excited to watch this video!

Not really a glitch but the demo for I believe ORAS contains the entire games code.

There's a single tall grass tile in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 that doesn't behave like a tall grass tile

That BDSP ice gym glitch was a life saver for my first pkaythrough, I didnt want to do the puzzle 😂😂

There are also a couple mistake in SV that you’d only really know about if you play competitively. In doubles, if tatsugiri’s ability commander activates and it goes into dondozo’s mouth, dondozo will get stat boosts and it’s signature move order up gives another stat boost every time it’s used. Initially this boost happened no matter what, even if order up was used on a target that protected itself, but this was a bug and was fixed. Also when the update introducing walking wake and iron leaves came out, the ability cud chew had a bug introduced to it. Instead of activating once the turn after a berry was eaten, it actually activated every other turn for the rest of the battle as long as the berry could have an effect. This has also been patched however

Me and my friend both encountered this really weird glitch in BDSP that would rename our nicknamed pokemon to random human names after evolution and we still have no idea why. but man it was so funny.

In Red/Blue if you trade a Riachu for an Electrode on Cinnibar Island the guy who received the Raichu will say that the Raichu you gave him evolved. Was this a translation error or was this hinting at the lost Pokemon Gorachu?

a recent raid event for Scarlet and Violet would also attempt to give the player TM material rewards for pokemon that did not have TM materials, resulting in essentially a null item. The game would then crash. this is why this raid event was postponed after a little while.

For a video about mistakes and grammar errors, there were a lot of mistakes and grammar errors in it xD

Fun fact: In Wellspring Cave, the tile to the left of the exit (impossible to reach) can spawn a dust cloud. It happened to me one time, but never anymore.

13:05 Waltuh

5:06 The Gen 3 games were patchable. There was even a batch for the internal clock called Berry Update.

i got a one i think? if you use a pokedoll on the lavender town ghost you dont have to go through the celadon game corner because you need the silph scope to see the marowak

Ahh, i light up when i see papa sea on my feed!

In that shot of the Black2 and White2 typo, you didn't mention it, but there's a bigger typo in that the word "in" is missing. She said "...was hiding it's lair..." 2 typos at once haha

12:37 Candice balls

Cool video as always

Going inside an npc is amazing. I can finally fulfill my dream.of being a pokemon npc

Here's a mistake, not delaying Scarlet and Violet😅

5:18 Lmfao I just discovered that bug yesterday while looking for the regis on a spanish version of ruby, I thought I was the first to notice but I realize that with the longevity of those games it was quite impossible

The Burned Tower Rival "mistake" actually exists in all the Johto games, as in no version is it required to go to Burned Tower before Olivine. However, given that the Rival leaves Olivine in the direction of Burned Tower this doesn't strictly have to be a mistake. In this version of events, he just visited Olivine first. And yes, I've played Red & Blue many times. They're wonderful :)

The snowy Raidons isn’t intentional, but it should not be patched out. It’s one of those glitches that should be considered a feature.

Found two mistakes in this video!!! First- the word is RULES, not RUINED Second- when evolving you don’t see a transparent Pokémon, you see a translucent Pokémon!

nice FFXIV reference at 13:00 haha
