Equivalent trade glitch Pokémon

The term equivalent trade Glitch Pokémon refers to any one of two or more Glitch Pokémon which share the same hexadecimal identifier. 'M for example, when transferred to Pokémon Yellow will become 3TrainerPoké; meaning 3TrainerPoké is an equivalent trade Glitch Pokémon of 'M (00) and 'M is an equivalent trade Glitch Pokémon of 3TrainerPoké.

Between games such as Red/Blue->Yellow, Red/Green->Blue and Red/Green-> Yellow, equivalent trade glitch Pokémon are often completely different, due to changes in the game code.

Trading a glitch Pokémon from one version to another is an ideal way of obtaining certain glitch Pokémon.

For example, 3TrainerPoké (hex:00) in Pokémon Yellow can easily be obtained by trading an 'M (00) over from Pokémon Red and Blue. 'M can easily be caught on Pokémon Red and Blue via the Old Man Trick, while 3TrainerPoké is harder to obtain without trading in Pokémon Yellow, as the Large storage box byte shift glitch or Johto guard glitch must be used.
