This effect has been known for really long, and involves OLD MAN or PROF. OAK trying to catch a Trainer's Pokémon, getting the 'out of Safari Balls' message, and keeping the altered name after battle. Nowadays however, we have information on how to do it without a cheating device (e.g. [[participants glitch (Generation I)|participants glitch]]). This could be an efficient way of fixing an unterminated player name and regaining the ability to retain a save, though you'd be left with either the name OLD MAN or PROF. OAK.
