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.
 
==Summary==
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.
Line 26 ⟶ 29:
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 [[bp:Machamp's (Pokémonsecond random ability)|Machamp]] with [[bp:Sheer Cold (move)|Sheer Cold]] and [[bp:Gastro Acid (move)|Gastro Acid]].
 
#Put the Pokémon with Mimic and the Pokémon with Transform in the first two positions of the party. HaveEither 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.
#Have the Pokémon with Transform transform into the Pokémon with Mimic, then on the same turn Mimic it to get Transform.
#Have the Pokémon withthat 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).
 
This is useful for the [[bp:Battle Tower|Battle Tower]] or [[bp:Battle Frontier|Battle Frontier]] if you give a level 100, +Speed nature, 252 Speed EV [[bp:Machamp (Pokémon)|Machamp]] with the [[bp:No Guard (Ability)|No Guard]] Ability a one-hit KO move such as [[bp:Sheer Cold (move)|Sheer Cold]], because Machamp's Ability [[bp:No Guard (Ability)|No Guard]] makes
 
 
==HeartGold and SoulSilver steps (no double battle)==
===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 (other battle items may work, but they haven't been tested) 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.
Line 50:
#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 movemoves's screen and at the conclusion of the battle.
 
===Via an enemy Ditto===
Bring a Pokémon to the patcharea 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.
Line 65:
#Go north until you get to the waterfall.
#Use Waterfall to climb the waterfall.
#There will be aan patcharea of grass with Ditto there that have a relatively high chance of appearing.
