Trapped at burgled house.

The trapped at burgled house oversight occurs in Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow.

In Cerulean City, initially the door to the burgled house is blocked by a police officer. The player is supposed to first go to Bill's house and obtain the S.S. Ticket, at which point the officer will move right a step, letting the player go through the house to fight the Team Rocket Grunt in the backyard.

By trading in a Pokémon that knows Cut from another game (and beating Misty), it is possible to cut the tree on the south side of Cerulean City, and access the backyard from the east side. The Team Rocket Grunt will still notice the player when they walk across, and fight them. Normally, after the player wins the fight, the Team Rocket Grunt gives the player TM28 (Dig), and runs away (the screen fades out). At this time, if the police officer is still in front of the door, they will move right a step anyway, allowing the player to exit from the front door.

However, if the player has a full inventory when they beat the Team Rocket Grunt, he will not run away ("Make room for this! I can't run until I give it to you!"), but he is no longer blocking the player's access to west part of the backyard. If the player ignores him and goes through the house, they will be trapped at the door, with no way to go back into the door.
