The '''Rage behaviour glitch''',
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]].

==Method for performing the "Mimic Transform Rage glitch"==
▲===Requirements===
#A Pokémon with the move Transform
Line 9 ⟶ 13:
#Optional: A Pokémon knowing the move Mimic, to copy the move Transform.
===Method (in a Double Battle)===
#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.
Line 17 ⟶ 21:
#At the end of the battle, the player's Transforming Pokémon will have permanently copied the moves of the Pokémon with Rage.
===Extended Method (for any Pokémon knowing Mimic)===
#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.
Line 26 ⟶ 30:
#At the end of the battle, the first Pokémon which originally had Mimic will have permanently copied the moves of the Pokémon with Rage.
==Explanation==
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 state back to its normal 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).
