The '''Horn Drill Glitchand Fissure glitch''' is a [[glitch]] in the [[bp:GenerationPokémon II|GenerationGold, II]]Silver Pokémonand gamesCrystal, which causes the move [[bp:Counter (move)|Counter]] to deal infinite damage, (believed to be 'infinite') when [[bp:Horn Drill (move)|Horn Drill]] or [[bp:Fissure (move)|Fissure]] is used by the otheranother Pokémon and misses, and when the user of Horn Drill or Fissure is of the same level or a higher level than the user.

The '''Horn Drill Glitch''' is a [[glitch]] in the [[bp:Generation II|Generation II]] Pokémon games, which causes the move [[bp:Counter (move)|Counter]] to deal infinite damage when [[bp:Horn Drill (move|Horn Drill]] is used by the other Pokémon and misses.
 
This is considered a glitch for two main reasons: one is that in Generation II, Horn Drill is the only one-hit knockout move compatible with this glitch. The second is thatbecause in [[bp:Pokémon Stadium 2|Pokémon Stadium 2]], thethis glitchbehavior no longer occurs, both reasons suggesting that this was unintended.{{fact}}
 
Additionally, Counter will always miss if Guillotine was used, even if an X Accuracy was used (X Accuracy maximizes accuracy in Generation I and II).
 
This is presumably the 'normal' behavior for a move that cannot be countered. For example, if the opponent used Surf (a special move) or Swords Dance Counter would also miss.
 
If the enemy Pokémon was of a lower level than the user, Horn Drill will not affect the user, and using Counter will cause Counter to always miss, even if an X Accuracy was used.
 
==Requirements==
* A Pokémon that knows either Horn Drill/Fissure or Counter.
* The Horn Drill/Fissure user has to be of the same level as the opponent, or of a higher level, but not too much higher or the move will be likely to hit (see [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Horn_Drill#Generation_II_and_on here] for more information).
* Another Pokémon that the above will fight, which knows either Horn Drill or Counter (whichever the other one doesn't know.)
 
==Procedure==
* Have Horn Drill/Fissure and Counter be used by the Pokémon in the same turn, and have Horn Drill miss.
* The Counter- using Pokémon will deal infinite damage to its opponent.
