{{Arbitrary code execution}}
'''Glitch items''' are invalid items in the Pokémon games. Unavailable items such as {{FRLG}} key items in {{Emerald}} may also be considered to be glitch items, as well as unused/unavailable items such as ????? (hex:07) and BoulderBadge (hex:15) — see [[unused items]].
Line 16 ⟶ 15:
*Lag name glitch items: These cause the items list to temporary freeze until the player taps A or B a specific number of times while scrolling up/down. It is advised to tap B instead of A due to the risk of a game freeze from an unterminated name glitch item, which could freeze the game, and potentially destroy the save data, especially on Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console versions.
*[[Rival's effect]] glitch items: These glitch items are capable of causing the Rival's effect; an effect that opens a menu and allows the player to walk through impassable tiles once it is closed with B.
*[[Partial escape glitch item]]s: These allow for the player to partially escape from a wild battle, or restart a Trainer battle.
Line 21 ⟶ 22:
*[[:Category:Screen data saving glitch items|Screen data saving glitch items]]: These allow for the player to create a copy of the screen while the items menu is open, which is useful for [[Rival LOL glitch]] or a similar glitch.
*String printing glitch items: These may include a variable string in the item's name
*RAM name items: These are not known to exist in the English versions, but an example is [[ItemDexJP/B:000]] from {{JB}}.▼
*[[Map distortion glitch item]]s: Documented by TheZZAZZGlitch, these glitch items have the capability of corrupting the map when their name is shown, in an area with a lot of grass. A player name that is four characters long or more is also required.
*[[Arbitrary code execution]] glitch items: These glitch items do not have hard coded effects; instead the effects are sourced from a pointer in rewritable memory, such as [[RAM]]. Depending on the source pointer, it is possible to manipulate the item to do almost anything in game. [[ItemDex/RB:093|8F (0x5D)]] and [[ItemDex/Y:099|ws m (0x63)]] are infamous examples in the English versions.
▲*RAM name glitch items: These are glitch items with randomized names. They are not known to exist in the English versions, but an example is [[ItemDexJP/B:000]] from {{JB}}.

===In {{RSE}}, {{FRLG}}===
There are many glitch items in these games named "[[????????]]" with no apparent use other than for arbitrary code execution setup. The hex:FFFF "????????" can be distinguished for having the 'return to menu' sprite as its sprite.
