'''Instant encounter infinite chain glitch''' is a glitch in {{RB}} which was found by luckytyphlosion based on the effect of the glitch item "[[ItemDex/RB:124|8 8]]" (hex:7C), which is used indirectly thanks to the item effect address becoming corrupted as part of [[unterminated name glitch item]] corruption.

'''Instant encounter infinite chain glitch''' is a glitch in {{RB}} whichIt was found by luckytyphlosion and is based on the effect of the glitch item "[[ItemDex/RB:124|8 8]]" (hex:7C), which is used indirectly thanks to the item effect address becoming corrupted as part of [[unterminated name glitch item]] corruption.
 
In this technique the address CFC4 is also modified to an even number to avoid a freeze that may occur after using 8 8.

==Summary==
The glitch allows you to get a presumably unlimited chain of Pokémon by first doing a [[Trainer escape glitch]] (either via a "[[Rival's effect]]" item or a black out warp on the Youngster near the exit) in Viridian Forest, and using (not just selecting) an unterminated name glitch item at the south entrance after the start menu pops up.
 
==Steps==
Line 41 ⟶ 44:
With a unterminated name glitch item, you can work around the CFC4 problem because the tile which affects CFC4 at the Viridian Forest (BGB coordinate x=01 y=05) is hex:30; an even number (non freezing value), which is unchanged after the item is used.
 
Unfortunately, the item hex:7C effect is different in Yellow, so you can't do this trick there. Furthermore, you seemingly can't even do this with a CFC3 freeze in Yellow becausedue Ito couldn'tthere findbeing anyno known items with constant effects with an effect like Red's hex:7C item.
 
If you do this trick by first entering Route 13 from the west and doing a Trainer escape there instead of using Viridian Forest, you can still force an 'open-menu' encounter, however the menus will be shifted down and you have to scroll through some glitch text (which will be invisible if you used hex:7C via a unterminated name glitch item's item effect change effect). Furthermore, since CFC4 becomes an odd number (even when you use a unterminated name glitch item for this particular location; an unterminated name glitch item sets it to hex:39 which is dec:57), you can't exit the battle here without a freeze.
