The battle tower elevator glitch


Okay this is how you do this glitch. First enter the lv. 100 battle tower. Notice what color and what location door you enetered. Beat at least 1 battle. Tell the lady you want to save and exit. Your game should reset here. Wait as the game starts up again. Now pay close attention. Watch as you enter the door. It will be the wrong one!

Use Dig/Bounce without really knowing it


Okay this is what you do... Have a pokemon in your party that knows Dig/ Bounce and is very very very close to growing a level and the level it is about to go to has to be a level where the poke learns a move, and have a slow but very strong pokemon in your party (these have to be in the first two places in your party). Then go into a double battle. Command your slow but strong pokemon (I like to use Regice) to defeat one of the pokemon with a decent attack. Command the one with dig/bounce to use dig/bounce. Then let the battle progress. The slow but strong poke should have KOed one of the pokes. And now the Dig/bouonce poke will grow a level. Make it forget dig/bounce for the new move. Then just watch and the pokemon will use dig/bounce even though it doesn't know it.

Celebi Glitch

The Celebi Glitch is a variation of missingno., since it happens by a similar way as the RUSA missingno. does...
As you can see, its a glitch that let you to catch celebi in RUSA. Its called by many people a lie, but we, and many other people, can tell you that its real. If you are in the route 121 or 123, you can find celebi. If you have a sharked item/pokemon, you'll probably find a celebi-missingno., that its a celebi that mess up your game once you find it. If you havent sharked, you'll find the real Celebi. This safe celebi its catchable, but its as hard as Rayquaza, or even harder. Also, its known that it can run away, making it more hard to catch. I highly recommend a masterball for catching it. It knows Recover, Safeguard, Healbell and Ancientpower. About its appearance, there are 4 theories of it:
  • Pelipper's Theory- After diassambling the game (with some help), Pelipper has found that there's a "floating" code on the route 123, and there's a chance of 1/268435456 that the code acts on a wild pkmn battle. His theory has been proven, and for now its the only way to battle it without cheating. So then, if you want a celebi, you can search it on the route 123, but it will take many time until you found it. Ironic is, that he knows almost all about this glitch, but he hasn't found a celebi in his ruby, when even a newbie on pokemon has found it...
  • CyberForte's Theory.- That theory explains that celebi is triggered on the route 121 by some HEX code. It can be a battle, an item, a number of steps, a pokemon..., and thats why the celebi researchers exists. This theory hasnt been proven yet, but if its proven, then there will be a way to battle it in the route 121, as the mew glitch in RB.
  • My Theory.- This theory is based on Murphy's law. The law says:
    If anything could happen (such as the celebi glitch) it will happen at the time you least expect it. Same thing goes for if anything can go wrong it will go wrong at the worst possible time.
    another important thing to remember is :
    "Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse." ~Murphy (creator of the "Murphys laws")
    This explains why more unexplainable things happen as your games get older. Such as a couple months ago I walked out of a building in my Blue version and it randomly said "I love Nidoran (girl), I collect them". Which would also explain why celebii and other things happening would increase their chances over time.
  • Shadowing Theory.- He has 2 theories, but the first its the same as Cyber's theory. The other says that is similar to the Berry Glitch, its a "timebomb" what triggers the celebi glitch.

If you want to find it by Pelipper's theory, he can only say "Good Luck", and hope that this FAQ make some people believe in the glitch.

The Ocean Current Glitch

Here is what you do. Go from Sotopolis and keep the the far left bottom path. Eventaully you will end up on a square on an island similar to the one in the picture. Then press < and then down. Now get on your bike and press >. It is a simple way to hatch eggs or train (stick them in the daycare). Also it could be used to raise the happiness of the pokemon in your party (every 512 steps=1 level of hapiness). And to get it so it keeps going I usually tape it down with duct tape, rubberband a coin to the D-Pad, or just put something heavy there. It has hatched me 45 eggs and gotten me 2 level 100s just in 2 days. Also if you have a gameboy player you can just press > and then un plug the controler and it will still think you are holding right.
