{{Summary page}}{{Bulbapedia2|Glitch dimension}}
'''Glitch Dimension''' is a side effect of a Game Boy Color enhanced game (such as {{GSC}} and {{Y}}) having program execution restart from the initial entrypoint (as could happen as a direct consequence of glitches, or with [[arbitrary code execution]] or [[Game Boy cartridge tilting|cartridge tilting]]) while being played in Game Boy Color mode, that manifests as incorrect colors until the system is reset normally. In particular, a Game Boy Color exclusive title will not be playable in this state, displaying a "[[This Game Pak is designed only for use on the Game Boy Color.]]" screen instead.
Line 17:
As a result, the game will no longer update any color palettes for the background map or for sprites. Those color palettes will be carried over from the moment before the unexpected reset. For example, if triggered with the [[Coin Case glitch]], the previous screen will be the item pack UI, which is covered mostly with a blue palette, but also has some regions with green, red, and pink palettes in order to display those colors. After the glitch is triggered, the game would be "stuck" in a blue palette, and those colored regions can be seen on various screens.

*The game's display will be colored in a glitchy way, usually with "glitched color blocks".
*The Ho-Oh on the title screen of Pokémon Gold will "show its true
** This is caused by the game displaying the title screen legendaries with the player sprite's palette. Normally both legendaries are displayed with a white-and-brown palette so that only their silhouettes can be seen, but Ho-Oh's sprite actually have enough details that will become visible when the same brown colors in the palette are replaced by different colors in the player palette, and Lugia's sprite only uses one of the white colors and one of the brown colors anyway. The fact that the player's orange-and-red palette closely resembles Ho-Oh's "true colors" is merely a coincidence.<ref>[https://youtu.be/Z_z4FOz0Yzo?t=127 Three unexplained side effects of Pokemon glitches] by Crystal_</ref>
*On Pokémon Crystal, the "This Game Pak is designed only for use on the Game Boy Color." screen will appear.
*The girl in the Goldenrod Department Store who enables Mystery Gift will tell the player that Mystery Gift requires a Game Boy Color. <!--Thanks TheZZAZZGlitch for the wording-->
