This type of glitch battle was documented by the Pokémon Speedruns community, and it is useful for [[glitch]]es that require [[unterminated name glitch Pokémon]], such as [[oobLG]] (within Generation I) and [[0x1500 control code arbitrary code execution]] for Pokémon traded into Generation II. It is also useful for [[item duplication]] and its sub-glitches, such as [[dry underflow glitch]].
