{{Major glitches}}
The '''Select glitch''' is a quirk within the Japanese versions of Generation 1 (not including Pocket Monsters Pikachu) that allows the player to swap entries in one menu with an entry from another, such as swapping an item with a Pokemon's move. This glitch was fixed in Pocket Monsters Pikachu and all overseas versions of Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow.

The '''Select glitch''' is a quirkglitch within thein Japanese versions of Generation 1{{RGB}} (not including Pocket Monsters Pikachu) that allows the player to either swap entriesan inentry within one menu with an entry from another, such(e.g. aspressing swappingSelect anon item with7 aallows Pokemon'sthe move.player Thisto glitchswap wasPokémon fixed7—a inclosed Pocketmenu MonstersSelect Pikachuglitch), andor allswap overseasentries versionsin ofa Pokemonlist Red,without Blue,leaving andthe Yellowmenu (a special menu Select glitch).
 
This glitch was fixed in Pocket Monsters Pikachu and all overseas versions of Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow.
 
Select glitches may be used by players to obtain specific items, moves, Pokémon, fight special Trainers, warp to different locations and so on, and the [[dokokashira door glitch]] (which allows the player to warp to the Hall of Fame) is an example of a Select glitch popular in tool-assisted speedruns of Pocket Monsters Red, Green (and Blue).
 
Uses and variations of the '''Select glitch''' include:
 
*[[Closed menu Select glitch]] (Examples: [[dokokashira door glitch]], [[fossil conversion glitch]], [[Trainer mutation glitch]]).
*[[Special menu Select glitch]] (Examples: Cerulean City badge man entry swapping, Silph Co. elevator entry swapping).
 
Select glitches to obtain items ([[item creation glitch]]) may be useful for setting up [[arbitrary code execution]]. Swapping a Pokémon in an [[expanded party]] (which is also possible in the localizations through [[Super Glitch (Generation I)|Super Glitch]], [[255 Pokémon glitch]]) may also have the same effect as performing a closed menu item menu>Pokémon menu Select glitch, although many Select glitches do not work the same on the localizations when 'ported' over.
 
The equivalent closed menu Select glitches (minus ones involving moves beyond slot 4) can also be simulated with a [[no expanded party international Select glitching]] method.
