To anyone who wants to know this, it is not just impossible to evolve your starter Pikachu in Yellow, it is impossible to evolve a Pikachu in Yellow version that matches your Trainer name and ID in general. Because even if you used cheats to catch another Pikachu, both Pikachus will refuse to evolve with a Thunderstone, because they match your Trainer ID, and normally there is no way to obtain another Pikachu in the game without trading, so the game actually thinks that both are your starter Pikachu. In fact, if you deposit either of the Pikachus into the PC, one of them will still follow you around, even the one you cheated to catch that isn't your starter. You also cannot release the Pikachu you cheated for, just like your starter. The game treats any Pikachu with a matching Trainer ID and name as your own starter Pikachu, even if it isn't. The only way to evolve any Pikachu in Yellow is if the Pikachu does not match your Trainer ID, i.e. it was traded. And of course to evolve the starter Pikachu and even the Pikachu you cheated to catch in Yellow, you have to trade it to another game, even if that other game is another Yellow. Unless that file on Yellow just so happens to have the same trainer name and ID as the one on your game... (which is unlikely but possible) then that game will treat your Pikachus as its own.

This was the most confusing ass tutorial i've ever seen.

"DODRIO used FLY!" ...What?

About to have a stroke from the sounds 🤣🤣 ...

well, I can agree that Pikachu might not be the best starter, but come on, it's not THAT bad. Besides, through the remainder of the game you can get all of the original starters: Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle. I always admired Yellow version for that :)

Quick note to future comments: Starter Pikachu cannot take the thunder stone. You cannot catch other Pikachus without cheats in the game.

This is my favorite Pokémon game. I always liked having a little Pikachu follow you around. I wish the starter Pokémon in Red, Blue, and Green would follow you around just like Pikachu does in Yellow.

He wraps his necks around each other really tightly, then lets go, twirling his heads like a helicopter

Awesome!! Same Mew glitch but with another Trainer fight!!

Doing the mew glitch with different trainers will yield different Pokemon due to the varying Special stats. I'm pretty sure you can get a Lapras or a Gengar depending upon which trainer you fought last on Route 25 before heading back to Cerulean.

MAN thank you ! you know how much time I save instead of going in a dark cave!

This is a good trick to get the 151 pokemon without trading with red/blue. I was wondering witch stat it needed to get this pokemon thanks!

@TheOmegaDragon Yes, thanks. But is this step needed to get Dragonite? Or can I get him after I get the Poke Flute (a.k.a. once I pass Snorlax to get to Bike Road)?

85 is the hex code for Raichu since Ditto copies the stats of the pokemon your battling. Mew's hex code is 21 same as the Slowpoke that Youngster uses.

You can also trade it to Red or Blue and evolve your Pikachu from there.

@FerrariSorry There is a Biker at Cycling Road that battles you using a Weezing thats how you get Dragonite with the Mew glitch.

You can however evolve the traded Pikachu using Thunderstone not this special Yellow version Pikachu though.

can u trade ur starter pikachu to friend on diff yellow and they evolve him and tade bak, xan he folow u?

u can do it with every pokemon the dec-number is the spez-stat for the pokemon which will fightin u if u go to the nugget bridge it's works in blue and red too

How does Doduo know fly without having wings, arms, a tail or anything else where it can fly with

How does Dodrio have Fly but not any wings?

"Aw yeah, Scyther, let's Fly!" Scther cannot learn Fly. ...CONUNDRUM!

@TheTony013 Sorry, it's such an old game that I can't remember much. Though you could trade a Pikachu from either the Red or Blue version and the game should let you evolve it via thunderstone.

@MrShway88 You have to battle a trainer for the glitch to work. That was probably the first place that he had trainers that weren't beaten yet.

Not only that but all gyms in the anime and yellow their leaders have the exact numer and pokemon

I did some glitch Pokemon searching in Pkmn yellow and generated raichu. Use LRT glitch find a random trainer then fly to cinnabar and surf east toward seafoam cave and encounter a lvl 40 tentacool. It generates Raichu.

I love the glitches in red blue and yellow lol.

Pidgey is about 2ft wide. You can barely stand on it. Plus, it's like 1/100 of your weight.

@demonshade500025 no those are just mine except u need a pokemon with special stat-85, it doesn t matter which trainer do you battle cuz ditto is gonna tranform in your pokemon with pecial stat 85...

do you have to have these pokemon with you or are those just yours? does it matter if you've already beaten the kid in the grass?

@jane921101 You can speed up red/blue/yellow on pokemon stadium. So there is a way you can speed up cartriges

i did the mew glitch really early.. im not even there yet. does this mean i cant do it or can i still later?

@FerrariSorry You need a pokemon who knows Fly or Teleport, go across the Nugget Bridge you'll see a trainer in the grass next to the water, make sure your offscreen then head to the trainer's line of sight, before he sees you press start and fly (or teleport) to Celadon City cuz it's closer to the trainer with the Weezing, go battle the trainer with the Weezing then after that fly back to Cerulean walk past the bridge (make sure you do not battle any other trainer or pokemon).

Pikachus are very rare, we can't found pikachus in yellow, But you can catch Raichu, But he can't learn anything, it's so bad.

Does the first treiner have to be that guy specifically? Cause I already fought him...

I've discovered something new if you do the same and use a repel in the mansion and if you go to the cerulean city and then it becomes a Blastoise l.v 7!!!! ( use a normal repel not a super repel or a max repel)

a dodrio would probably use its heads to fly because it doesnt have wings.

this is specifically for yellow, you can't catch additional pikachus in yellow.

I know ;D I always thought Pokemon Yellow had the best sprites in Gen. 1

FOLLOW HIS DIRECTIONS EXACTLY AND USE THE EXACT PEOPLE HE USED IT FREAKING WORKED!!!! I LOVE YOU THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!!

when i use my emulator, i set CAPS LOCK to the speed. that way if i press it, it stays REALLY fast

@Dogmaster312 It doesn't follow you around anymore does it.

@TheOmegaDragon Okay, thanks a lot! So, what this recorder is doing via using Ditto is not needed for this? Luckily I skipped fighting the trainer in the grass left of Nugget bridge, I also skipped fighting the Slowpoke trainer whom is in all of the Mew glitch videos. At this moment, Lvl 32 Nidorino, Lvl 25 Growlithe, Lvl 34 Wartortle, Lvl 31 Gloom; I just beat Celadon Gym and need to own the Rocket fags then I can do this because I'll access Bike Road because I'll own Snorlax via P.Flute.

HOW DO YOU DO THE "RUN AWAY FROM TRAINER" THING

Omg the get all the starters glitch worked so did the mew and raichu glitch (yellow version) :D

@Hylian Warrior you cant on pokemon yellow

@Knux038 pikachu won't take it because it doesn't want to evolve just like in the show when ash vs Surge

@FerrariSorry you can get every pokemon in yellow like this,just u must know the special stat to get the pokemon ex. kanghaskhan is 2,scyther 26,blastoise 28,eevee 102,alakazam 149.....

do you have to have these pokemon with you or are those just yours?

They have wings, just tiny ones, check out the classic pokédex entry for doduo.

@FerrariSorry This guy here is trying to catch a specific pokemon i.e. Raichu whose hex number is 85 specified by the Special stat of the last pokemon he battled. Since Ditto was the last pokemon he fought and was also able to copy the Special stat of his Blastoise it Transformed into the pokemon he encountered was indeed a Raichu. If opponent Special stat is 85=Raichu if opponent Special stat is 21=Mew and so on. Ditto + Transformation=The Special stat of your pokemon.

do you have to have these pokemon with you or are those just yours? I tried this and it didn't work!!

That Raichu will never learn more attacks other then being a pokedex entry its worthless

yoo i'm hella late, but does anyone know if the mew glitch actually works over and over again? like if i fled the old man encounter in the first step, could i go see him again?

wat if you already faced the trainer in 0:45? Would it still work?

can you fight any trainer after you run from the trainer in the grass?

@TheOmegaDragon Thanks, I recieved a Lvl 7 Dragonite cause of your help o_o I'm failing the GSC glitch to swap moves with Mr. Mime to get Barrier on him though ;(

guys u can do this trick to get every pokemon ( including missingno on re /blue version) u can also get a mew (not in yellow)

This game is based off of the anime who's protagonist is Ash. In the anime when Ash battled Lt. Surge, he lost. In attempt to win he offered Pikachu a Thunderstone who refused to take it. Since Pikachu didn't evolve in the anime, Pikachu wont evolve in the game.

I just caught a pikachu in pokemon red, is there a way to get thunder stones in the game to evolve him?

What's the freaking chance of a ditto in that place? I swear to fucking god I have been going at it for hours and all I get are fucking level 50 raticates that kill my pokemon in two hits because I "couldn't escape". This is pissing me off.

This is similaar to the mew glitch because there was somestuff you had to do and it was lv 7/

It spins its 2 heads real fast and flies like a helecopter.

@fellan123456789 it isn t gameshark it is a glitch!!! try on gameboy and u will see that is a glitch (u can t put gameshark on gameboy) !

You can buy some at Prismania City shopping mall. I believe it was the 3th floor

can't u go to the celadon market, and buy a thunderstone ?

What Pokémon would I have to battle to get Eevee? I know the special stat is 102, but I wanna know what Pokémon I need to battle!! Please!!

Can you do the Mew glitch more than once?

How do I catch ditto though, he always escapes on the first wiggle of the ball. Do you just need patience, do you have to catch him before he transforms? SOMEONE TELL ME

nice video man

Super simple, trade your Pikachu to a friend that has a thunder stone after your friend used it traded the Raichu back to you! Viola a Raichu!!

@memsterboy12 In this version, the game won't let you use it on Pikachu

how do u have it so u can see the game like that?

Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver is probably the closest thing we can get to a Yellow remake. You can play in Kanto and you can have Pikachu follow you (if you have one in your party at least).

What if i will catch a pikachu glich in yellow?? I wont evolve him too??

AWESOME MAN!

@Witsarunemitea A lot of normal types can learn a lot of other type moves

good. but if u use the speed function next time. turn off the game sound. my head hurts -.-

he runs so fast that he don't need wings to fly

yeah go try it yourself mister and come back to tell us how he ''evolved''

You only need to do the Mew Glitch with other trainers ...

the number of SPC stat needed for them all

In my game I did the same but the pokemon was ARBOK and not RAICHU

and even if you do any pikachu with your OT name and Trainer ID will also refuse the stone

I thought Pikachu refused to take Thunderstones. Well, you can't know everything I guess.

always ditto and make sure you have a pokemon with special stat 102

but what about ashh grey?

lol do you see a ? in my statement! just saying but thank again for the info got answered plenty of time already XD and its written in the description!

It rotates it's heads like a propeller in helicopter xD

you can't. there are no other pikachus in yellow, and if you trade it into the game, it still won't evolve.

es una especie de glitch, de forma similar se obtiene a mew :)

(in description) I lost myself at the last step oops XD

YASSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! my favorite pokemon!!

In pokemon yellow pikachu will refuse to evolve even if you give it a thunder stone or level it up it will keep refusing to evolve

00:17 best blastoise sprite by far

In Pokemon Yellow, Pikachu wont take the Thunderstone

Charizard can use fly in yellow edition.

the same question in my mind when i was like 12 yrs old.. and now I'm 24.. hahaha XD I'm 24 years old and still playing POKEMON on my psp using Rin Emulator.. XD

Lol, I thought you would let your Pikachu Evolve!

That's interesting.... Pass that onto a user called MissingnoXpert he does a series on Pokemon Yellow glitches and stuff :)
