As an avid Pokémon enthusiast, I decided to test a legendary glitch from the original Pokémon Red, Green, and Blue games. The glitch promised a swift rise to level 100, but my experience was quite the opposite.
With my level 30 Hitmonlee, I followed the glitch instructions to the letter.
I manipulated my inventory, engaged in a wild Pokémon battle, and tried to execute the glitch. However, instead of fleeing, Hitmonlee was defeated.
Returning to the Day Care, I withdrew Hitmonlee, expecting a massive level increase. To my surprise, he was now level 29, and I was 9,999 yen poorer. The glitch had backfired, and I was left with a weaker Pokémon and a lighter wallet.
This misadventure taught me that not all shortcuts lead to success. Sometimes, they take you on a detour that ends up being more memorable than the intended destination. It’s these unexpected moments that often provide the best stories and the most laughter.
