'''Trainer-Surf''', also known as the '''surf glitch''', is a glitch in {{BDSP}} that allows the player to surf on land. While surfing on land, the player's Z coordinate (altitude) does not change with the terrain, but may change if the player saves and reloads the game. This allows the player to bypass some obstacles on the overworld map and reach areas that are supposed to be inaccessible. Notably, this glitch allows the player to obtain Shaymin, a [[bp:Mythical Pokémon|Mythical Pokémon]].

== Obtaining Shaymin ==
In order to obtain Shaymin with this glitch, the player should do this glitch on [[bp:Sinnoh Route 224|Route 224]] with a Black Belt named Carl. Some other trainers further on that route should be beaten beforehand, to prevent them challenging the player while the glitch is active. After triggering the glitch, the player should surf to a flight of stairs, and save and load the game in certain positions to adjust their Z coordinate twice, so that the player is high enough to bypass obstacles and dismount in an area of shallow water that is normally inaccessible. From there, the player can go to the Seabreak Path and the Flower Paradise, and catch Shaymin normally.
