Glitch: Difference between revisions

Line 21:

Red bar manipulation is allowed but realistically is impossible to avoid without intentionally trying to avoid getting a Pokémon to low health. [[Bike Shop instant text glitch]] was once allowed as well, but later banned, however there are plans to allow it once again.

Some differentiate between "bug" and "glitch", for example possibly by identifying a bug as something that was clearly an error in the programming code, i.e. Game Boy ASM etc. ([[programming logic error]] with an example being the [[Focus Energy glitch]]) however the criteria for distinction between bug and glitch can be vague. Another distinction is of glitch being an error in computer hardware rather than software, however different understandings of glitch were later socially constructed in video gaming communities.

There may also be controversy whether certain sequence breaks in video games count as glitches, or the access of placeholder data like [[??????????]].
