EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS THE MOST RIDICULOUS GODDAMN THING I'VE EVER SEEN.
ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAVE A COOLTRAINER DITTO ON MY CARTRIDGE COPY OF POKEMON RED. COOLTRAINER DITTO IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE GLITCHES. BUT IT NEVER OCCURRED TO ME THAT CATCHING THE OPPONENT POKEMON WHILE THE GLITCH IS HAPPENING WOULD CAUSE IT TO BECOME A DIFFERENT POKEMON AND THAT THE SPECIES AND LEVEL OF THE POKEMON I GET AS A RESULT WILL DEPEND ON THE MAP TILES THAT WERE AT SPECIFIC PLACES ON THE SCREEN WHERE I WAS STANDING WHEN I LAST USED FLY.
Most of the stuff that ZZAZZ does is all technically possible to perform on a cartridge copy but way too complex to easily try out most of this stuff for myself. Even with an emulator, most of the stuff he does is just... not easy at all.
But I already have a cooltrainer Ditto.
And all I have to do is go stand in a nice-looking spot, fly to Vermillion, walk to Digglet Cave, get into a battle, let my Ditto do its thing, and then, instead of being mesmerized by the glitchy effects, I can remember that I still have control over the battle menu, and that I am capable of throwing a ball -- and then catch the thing, which will suddenly not be a Ditto, all because I stood in a nice spot before flying.
Edit: AND I REALLY WANT TO TEST IT OUT FOR MYSELF BUT I CAN'T BECAUSE THE LINK IN THE DESCRIPTION THAT'S SUPPOSED TO TELL ME WHAT-MAP-TILE-CORRESPONDS-TO-WHAT IS BROKEN.
And I would experiment for myself but the existence of glitch pokemon with save-data-erasing capabilities makes me a bit hesitant to leave it all up to luck.
