The '''Pomeg glitch''' or '''Pomeg Berry glitch''' is an oversight regarding the Pomeg Berry's ability of lowering HP [[bp:Effort value|EV]]s, such that if the player uses a Pomeg Berry at a relatively low amount of HP, there is a possibility that the relevant Pokémon's hitpoints will drop below zero and roll down from (2^16)-1 or 65535 HP due to hitpoints being a [[signed]] integer.

The consequences of the glitch vary between the game which it was exploited on, although the ability for the player to reduce a Pokémon's HP to essentially 'negative HP' via a Pomeg Berry has not been amended and if at all at least since the release of [[bp:Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]].
