I’ve got an old man to track down
Do you wanna glitch the hell out of the 3DS ports ofPokémon Red,Blue, andYellow? I hadn’t planned on it, exactly. But I’ve never encountered “MissingNo” first-hand before, and this weekend seems like the appropriate time to do so. It’s the series’ 20th anniversary!
The Gen 1 re-releases won’t allow you tocreate restore points, but they will support wireless play, and the glitches (at least everyone’s favorite “missing number” Pokémon) appear to be left alone. This video from YouTube user Epi Demie shows a demonstration inPokémon Blue.
For a breakdown of how to initiate the infamous glitch and an explanation of why it happens, GT’s Pop Fictionhas you covered. Stick around for the nostalgic recap of old fan theories.
