When Pokémon in the Pokémon Storage System or Day Care are corrupted, it is possible for them to know useful [[Super Glitch move (Generation III)|Super Glitch move]]s. When the player opens the Fight menu or attempts to use one of the Super Glitch moves, it can have effects such as finishing the battle (instant flee) or changing a Trainer battle into a wild Pokémon battle; allowing the player to steal other Trainer's Pokémon or escape from battle using a Fluffy Tail. |
||
The Pokémon stolen fom other trainers will have their Trained ID changed to match the player's TID. If the initial TID of the Pokémon isn't the player's TID, the stolen Pokémon will turn into a Bad Egg. Pokémon from Battle Factory trainers are the only ones who have the player's TID. |

If the player is unsuccessful with the glitch after many attempts, they may attempt to place different Pokémon next to the Pokémon applicable for the glitch, referred to as [[corruption initiator]]s for example they could try random Pokémon or (if the glitch was successful before) they could try placing a specific Caterpie known as "[http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php?topic=6868.msg198505#msg198505 Caterpie the perfect initiator]" next to SEASOR knowing Waterfall, Protect, Surf, Return (US)/no move (FR). |

In order to know whether the Pokémon is applicable for the glitch and if so; which attribute needs to be converted into a species ID, the player must know the Pokémon's personality value and data substructure (determined by the Pokémon's personality value modulo 24). |
In order to know whether the Pokémon is applicable for the glitch and if so; which attribute needs to be converted into a species ID, the player must know the Pokémon's personality value and data substructure (determined by the Pokémon's personality value modulo 24). It is difficult to know a Pokémon's personality value (unless theoretically the Pokémon is a Spinda) without using an external device. For an illustration on how this works, see the [[Glitzer Popping#Pokémon Storage System corruption|section about the mechanics of Pokémon Storage System corruption]] below. |
||
However, thanks to Emerald's RNG, it is possible to easily determine the PID of a Pokémon that was caught right after soft-resetting by calculating its IVs and finding back the frame that generated the Pokémon. |

A method of [[Pokémon cloning]] with the access Pokémon beyond slot six glitch was discovered by luckytyphlosion in 2014 before it was known that scrolling past those Pokémon will corrupt data. Sometimes in the expanded party there will be a Pokémon that the player can send out. If the player sends this Pokémon into battle and whites out, it is possible for the player to clone the last Pokémon in their party. |
