m (Bbbbbbbbba moved page Celadon looping map glitch to Celadon looping map trick over redirect: Although the boundary between non-natural glitches and tricks can be vague, I would suggest the following criteria: If (1) all of its effects logically follow from the properties of its parent glitch(es), and (2) it is intended to be a efficient way of achieving a goal, then it's a trick.)

(with the exception of [[Cancel (Generation I 0xFF glitch item)|CANCEL/TM55 (0xFF)]]). It does not work in the Japanese versions, as the x-coordinate represents a quantity rather than an item in these versions.

It was documented by TheZZAZZGlitch, and abuses both the fact that the player can walk freely in x-positions greater than the x-boundary and the fact that the player's x coordinate represents an item in the player's [[expanded item pack]].
It was documented by TheZZAZZGlitch, and it mainly abuses the fact that the [[Phantom City|phantom quadrant]] of Celadon City is particularly easy to navigate, allowing the player to walk freely on a horizontal line covering a wide range of X-coordinates. As the player's X-coordinate represents an item in the player's [[expanded item pack]], this translated to a wide range of items.


The trick does not work as well in the Japanese versions, as the X-coordinate represents a quantity rather than an item in these versions, and the [[Out of bounds Glitch City (Generation I)|glitch city quadrant]], with the Y-coordinate out of bounds, is usually hard to navigate.
When the player character continues to walk right, Celadon City will loop with warps not working, and NPCs not appearing. This is known as a [[Phantom City]].

The player is now able to walk right and left. The Celadon City map will be able to loop multiple times until x=hex:32 or x=hex:FF. Each right step increases the item ID of the slot where the Nugget was. Each left step decreases the item ID.

When the player receives the item they wish, it should be swapped again with the Nugget x1 (or an item that the player wants to replace). If the player uses Fly or Teleport, they can safely return to a Pokémon Center without getting trapped.

To keep the item but fix the items pack, the player should deposit the obtained item in the PC, then buy / receive three items to fix the item pack.

The player can stand at spots in Celadon City further to the left than the picture above to manipulate item 34 (normally the Nugget x1) to values hex:00 and hex:30, swap it to the regular item pack space and then Fly or Teleport away.

The player does not have to use Celadon City for this glitch, and it is possible to use this method to obtain any item with an ID<(map's x boundary-1).
