The '''(Mimic) Transform Rage glitch''' is a major [[glitch]] in {{DPP}} and {{HGSS}}.
 
It allows a Pokémon to copy the entire moveset of a Pokémon knowing Rage.
The '''Rage behaviour glitch''', refers to a major [[glitch]] in the handheld [[bp:Generation IV|Generation IV]] Pokémon games.
 
==Summary==
This [[glitch]] happens when the player uses the move Rage, whilst under the effects of Transform, Substitute, Infatuation, or Torment. Using the move Rage will cancel out the effects of one of these moves when the player recieves the "Rage is building..." message. This glitch is heavily exploited when the player uses it whilst under the effects of Transform. This part of the glitch (regarding Rage and Transform) is commonly referred to as the '''Mimic Transform Rage glitch''' or simply the '''Transform glitch'''. After performing this "sub-glitch" the player's Pokémon will have permanently copied the moveset of another Pokémon knowing the move [[bp:Rage|Rage]].
This glitch involves a Pokémon using [[bp:Transform (move)|Transform]] on a Pokémon with [[bp:Rage (move)|Rage]], using Rage, getting hit with an attack so that the "[PKMN]'s rage is building!" message appears, then using a move other than Rage on the same or the next turn (or a battle item including X Attack and Guard Spec. (other battle items may work, but they haven't been tested) on the turn that 'rage is building!' appears).
 
This alters the Pokémon's moves to the moves it knew after using Transform, as seen on the 'check moves' screen, and after the conclusion of the battle.
==Method for performing the "Mimic Transform Rage glitch"==▼
 
At least for the user's transformed Pokémon, performing the steps of the glitch and then switching to another Pokémon or having the Pokémon faint will ''not'' ruin the glitch if the player runs from, catches, or defeats the enemy Pokémon.
===Requirements===
 
==Diamond, Pearl and Platinum steps==
#A Pokémon with the move Transform
Prepare a Pokémon with Rage (and another move or a Guard Spec/X Attack) and a Pokémon with Transform in the first and second position of the party. Both should be able to take damage from Ty & Sue's level 19 (Diamond/Pearl) or level 23 (Platinum) Pokémon.
#A second Pokémon with the move Rage.▼
#Optional: A Pokémon knowing the move Mimic, to copy the move Transform.
 
Example: Salamence and Ditto.
===Method (in a Double Battle)===
 
#Battle Ty & Sue on [[bp:Sinnoh Route 209|Route 209]], using the Vs. Seeker if necessary.
#The player should enter a battle with a Pokémon already knowing the move Transform, such as [[bp:Ditto (Pokémon)|Ditto]] or [[bp:Mew (Pokémon)|Mew]] as the first Pokémon in the party.
#TheHave player's transformingthe Pokémon, shouldwith Transform transform into the second Pokémon, so that it copies the movewith Rage and any other moves of that Pokémon.
▲#AHave secondthe Pokémon withunder the movetransformation use Rage.
#The transforming Pokémon should use Rage until all of its PP is gone but not faint the other Pokémon, in this case the player will have to use the move Rage five times, the player must also recieve the "Rage is building.." message.
#After all of Rage's PP is gone,Have the player'sother Pokémon whichuse usedan theattack move transform should defeaton the enemy Pokémon withthat ajust differentused moveRage, heto or she should not defeatget the enemy'rage Pokémonis withbuilding' the last PP for Ragemessage.
#Have the Pokémon that got the 'rage is building' message use an attack other than Rage, or use a Guard Spec/X Attack.
#At the end of the battle, the player's Transforming Pokémon will have permanently copied the moves of the Pokémon with Rage.
 
▲==Method for performing the "=Mimic Transform Rage glitch"===
===Extended Method (for any Pokémon knowing Mimic)===
This is an extension of the Rage glitch that lets you teach not just Ditto or Mew most moves (theoretically all moves except [[bp:Chatter (move)|Chatter]] and [[bp:Struggle (move)|Struggle]]{{fact}} can be taught via Smeargle) and Rage, but also any Pokémon that knows Mimic.
 
It allows things such as [[bp:No Guard (move)|No Guard]] [[bp:Machamp (Pokémon)|Machamp]] (No Guard is an Ability that makes Pokémon never miss, and Machamp's second random ability) with [[bp:Sheer Cold (move)|Sheer Cold]] and [[bp:Gastro Acid (move)|Gastro Acid]].
#The player should enter a Double Battle with a Pokémon knowing the move Mimic as the first Pokémon and a Pokémon knowing the move Transform as the second Pokémon.
#The second Pokémon should Transform and the first Pokémon should Mimic the move Transform, if the first Pokémon is faster an additional move such as Substitute can be used to end that turn.
#The original transforming Pokémon should switch out to a Pokémon knowing the move Rage and on the same turn, the first Pokémon should Transform into that Pokémon.
#The first Pokémon should use Rage until all of its PP is wasted. It should also recieve the "Rage is building..." message.
#The first Pokémon should then defeat the enemy Pokémon and end the battle.
#At the end of the battle, the first Pokémon which originally had Mimic will have permanently copied the moves of the Pokémon with Rage.
 
#Put the Pokémon with Mimic and the Pokémon with Transform in the first two positions of the party. Either have the Pokémon knowing Transform be faster (by using X Speed(s) if necessary), or do this and go to step 3: on one turn have the Pokémon with Mimic use any move and the Pokémon with Mimic Transform into it, then on the next turn mimic Transform.
==Explanation==
#Have the Pokémon with Transform transform into the Pokémon with Mimic, then on the same turn Mimic it to get Transform.
#Have the Pokémon that mimicked Transform use Transform into the other one of the user's Pokémon, then on the same turn switch that Pokémon into the Pokémon with Rage, which will have the moveset that you want.
#Have the transformed Pokémon use Rage, then have it get hit so that the 'rage is building' message appears.
#Have the transformed Pokémon use a move other than Rage, and the glitch should activate (you can go on to the 'check moves' screen to make sure).
 
==HeartGold and SoulSilver steps (no double battle)==
The "Mimic Transform Rage glitch", in theory is caused when the game attempts to cancel out the effects of Transform but does not revert the moves or (temporary in-battle sprite) of that Pokémon back to the original moveset or sprite. The Rage behaviour glitch in theory instantly changes the Pokémon's battle state back to the 'normal/default state' without reverting any other important values. However, the exact cause of the Rage behaviour glitch is unknown, because it does not cancel out other effects such as those of Taunt, Embargo, Aqua Ring, Disable, Leech Seed, Ingrain, Magnet Rise or Drowziness (from the move Yawn).
===Via a wild Dunsparce===
Wild Dunsparce from [[bp:Dark Cave|Dark Cave]] can be used for this glitch because they know Rage (and sometimes Defense Curl). Bring a Guard Spec or X Attack in case the Dunsparce is less than level 5. It's recommended to bring a Pokémon knowing [[bp:Rock Smash|Rock Smash]], because wild Dunsparce are otherwise rare unless they are in a swarm.
 
Save in the cave before the glitch in case something goes wrong.
 
#Go to [[bp:Violet City|Violet City]], then head east to [[bp:Johto Route 31|Route 31]] and enter [[bp:Dark Cave|Dark Cave]].
#Put the Pokémon with Transform in the first position. Encounter a wild Dunsparce. If using Rock Smash, save before smashing the boulder in case you smash both of the nearest boulders and don't encounter a Dunsparce. If so, save, reset and try again.
#Transform into the Dunsparce.
#Use Rage against the Dunsparce.
#Get hit by the enemy Dunsparce with Rage, to get the '[PKMN]'s rage is building' message.
#Use Defense Curl or a battle item (Guard Spec and X Attack only tested), then the glitch should activate.
 
The Ditto should know Rage or Rage and Defense Curl according to the 'check moves' screen and at the conclusion of the battle.
 
===Via an enemy Ditto===
Bring a Pokémon to the area of grass in [[bp:Johto Route 47|Route 47]] (west of [[bp:Cianwood City|Cianwood City]] requiring [[bp:Surf (move)|Surf]] and [[bp:Waterfall (move)|Waterfall]] with a Pokémon knowing Rage and another move).
 
It's helpful for it to be at a decent level (compared to the Ditto here that are level 31-40{{fact}}) so that it has good HP and can take a lot of attacks.
 
Here are steps to get there:
 
#Go west into the cave to get to the [[bp:Cliff Edge Gate|Cliff Edge Gate]].
#Go up the steps and into the exit ([[bp:Rock Climb (move)|Rock Climb]] is not required).
#Go into the cave from the west, then down the right-most steps.
#Go through the exit to get to a shore, then use Surf.
#Go north until you get to the waterfall.
#Use Waterfall to climb the waterfall.
#There will be an area of grass with Ditto there that have a relatively high chance of appearing.
 
Steps from within battle:
 
#Have the Ditto transform into your Pokémon with Rage.
#Attack it with a move so that the 'rage is building' message appears.
#Have the Ditto use a move other than Rage.
#Capture the Ditto.
 
Ditto also appear in Route 34, 35 and [[bp:Cerulean Cave|Cerulean Cave]] but they are rarer there.
