'''Pokémon cloning''' refers to [[natural glitch]]es which allow the player to keep two copies of the exact same Pokémon. There are two known methods to do this in {{RBY}}. |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
==Save menu method== |
|||
This method was documented by Paco81. It is very risky and the save file could be destroyed if the timing when resetting is bad, but works. |
|||
===Procedure=== |
|||
*Save the game in front of a Pokémon Center. |
|||
*Deposit a Pokémon in to the Pokémon Storage System. |
|||
*Attempt to save the game, but reset the game as soon as the Yes/No box disappears in "Would you like to SAVE the game?" without the text updating. |
|||
*If done correctly, the player will have the same Pokémon in the party and storage system. |

Alternatively, the player can use the PC to clone his or her Pokémon, but this is '''NOT''' recommended as it usually corrupts the save battery and deletes the player's save file. (The method is the same for the 2nd generation of Pokémon games.) |

The Pokémon to be cloned should now exist on both games, and the other Pokémon should be overwritten by one of the clones. |

===How it works=== |

Simply because the game was not saved after the later deleted Pokémon was obtained, the save data still says that the player has the cloned Pokémon. On the other game, it was saved with the cloned Pokémon on it, so then both games have the same Pokémon. |
