If the player uses a Pomeg Berry at a low amount of HP, the glitch may be abused to reduce the Pokémon's HP below zero. Its HP will then roll down from (2^16)-1 or 65535 HP due to hitpoints being a [[unsigned]], two byte integer. In Emerald Version, this enormous health quantity will be displayed as '?35'.
