Mostly because I didn't know where to buy the adapters.

There was no adapter necessary in the first generation games.  It was all about surfing near Cinnabar....


What do you mean? Rare candies were found by surfing?


It was an in-game glitch. You had to talk to that old man in Viridian City, then surf near Cinnabar, and then you found a glitch pokemon and whichever item was in the 6th (if I remember right) slot in your bag, got multiplied.

Yep.  And you could switch items around and have a large number of just about anything you could ever want/need.
It's surprising how easy the game is when you have infinite master balls.

Also, whlie surfing for missingo, the glitch pokemon, you could find various normal pokemon above level 100. While surfing, I got 3x level 136 snorlaxes, and 3x level 152 muks, and used them to beat the elite four.

The only problem with them is that when they get exp, they level down to level 100. D:


Is this it? Image

Also, are there any glitches in the newer Pokemon games?

The only ability was to completely screw up your system. :P

I don't know first hand because I never even thought about catching a Missingno. But I've heard from plenty of people that it basically froze their game and then erased some, if not all, of the data on the cartridge.

iirc, there's different variations of missingno, at least differing in how much they mess up your game, or something. I'm pretty sure I caught one back in the day, and at the very least it didn't immediately kill my game.

I think there was the Missingno and the 'M, and it may have been the 'M that killed data files. But like I said, I didn't catch one, I just cheated to get masterballs/rare candies/high level pokemon.

Nintendo didn't start off too perfect.

Yeah, Google pictures showed the glitch Pokemon as "M" not Missingno. And I wish I knew of all these cheats when I played the 1st Gen games.

I was wondering the same thing, I assumed it was a glitch.

I had the adapter, but never understood how to use it.
Kept getting errors.
