If a slide Pokémon was working in the past and suddenly stopped working the problem could be caused if the Pokémon gained experience (increasing its stat experience) or gained a bad happiness value. For this reason one should not walk too many steps with the slide Pokémon, and it is a good idea to faint the slide Pokémon if it previously worked but you can't get it to work anymore and didn't make it gain any experience.

Thankfully, there is a consistent setup (credit: TinoVM) that allows a working slide Pokémon to be obtained consistently and easily. The only requirement is that the time of day is either morning or daytime to encounter Sentret.

- Encounter and capture a level 2 Sentret.

- Check its stats. If its Special Defense is either 6 or 8, it cannot be used. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.

- Encounter another Sentret (any level)

- Send out the Sentret you captured along with one other Pokémon (the goal is to divide the stat experience between the two Pokémon). Knock out the wild Sentret.

Doing this setup correctly will guarantee that your Sentret can be used as a Slide Pokémon (provided the Happiness value is not problematic). If Coin Case is used in certain locations (e.g 4 steps to the right coming from Cherrygrove Mart), this setup will also leave the zero flag reset, meaning Wooper can be used as an alternative to Quagsire.

It is very important for the box names (if using a box name method) to be exactly right. If they are wrong (even if it is a small mistake such as using a character without an apostrophe before it or the wrong "x" character) the glitch will most likely not work. For this reason be extra careful when entering the box names.

Sometimes as well a box name or stored PC item code will expect that the code begins at a specific location (such as character 2 of the first box name if using TM02 and Return). If the code is meant to be for another setup (like character 1 of the first box name if using TM01 and Return) then the code may not work.
