▲'''Walking lag glitch''', previously known erroneously as '''Zero Error''' due to error codes that may appear during the text box matching method, is a minor [[glitch]] in Pokémon Red, Blue and Yellow. Exploiting this glitch causes lag before the player can take their next step. Sound effects may also be played with the lag or the game may freeze, depending on the player's coordinates.
There is no documented fix for the glitch except arbitrary code execution.

If the player loses, a text box may appear before the player is sent back to their black out location.
The glitch can be pulled off by two variations of the [[

# Go to the map where the Trainer escape glitch was activated, but you shouldn't get any encounter.
# Fight any Trainer on the map. Since they can't notice you, you have to talk to them.
# Once the battle is finished, another battle may immediately start, with a glitched text box being displayed for a couple frames before being overwritten by the battle animation.

When using the Trainer-Fly glitch in Vermilion Forest with the trainer right before the exit, when one of the trainers is battled then rebattled, the walking lag glitch will also occur, without any sound effects and there will be less lag.
== Fixing the glitch ==
{{Researchneeded|Add methods with details for each map}}
The glitch comes from the game advancing the map script ID but triggering more battles due to reading invalid flags, and not setting the ID back to 0 (the intended way).
Using item PC [[Expanded item pack]] or [[Arbitrary code execution]] allows fixing the glitch, but the method depends on the map the glitch was triggered on.
