Obtaining Arceus via the Void Glitch

[Ganix]

I'm assuming 1E and 1W would be enough to bypass that area? (And you mean bypassing ID 150?)

They would. And yeah, I meant 150. My bad, thanks!

Is ACE possible by using the RETIRE option in some maps?

From what I've seen in D/P, I can't say that ACE seems immediately possible with the RETIRE trick. Although if you were able to inject a script or otherwise mess with the scripts themselves, then it definitely may be possible.

After reading Cryo's explanation of how void works, I've been trying to see if I could create my own path by following the same steps (2 -> 392 -> 393 -> 251 -> etc) to see if I understood this correctly. I think this one is slightly faster:

=======
Step 1
=======
1 S
17 W
14 N
574 W
Save & Reset

=======
Step 2
=======
2097 S
19 W
288 S
51 E
352 S
33 W

=======
Step 3
=======
1 E
64 S
128 E
If PalPark not visited before: (14S 1S(OAK) 17S 63E)
If PalPark visited before: (32S 64E)
177 N
1 N (PAL PARK)

=======
Step 4
=======
192 E
82 S

=======
Step 5
=======
179 W
64 N
64 W
32 N
128 W
64 N
64 W
82 N
243 E
Start -> RETIRE

=======
Step 6
=======
51 W
244 S
142 W
1 E
66 S
128 E
12 S
1 S
11 S
64 E
177 N
1 N
Start -> RETIRE




I have tested this and it seems to work, basically I didn't go too much to the left at the beginning, and went down through the middle of the map, avoiding ID 176 that seems to crash the game when opening the menu.

But again, I was just following Cryo's steps. Thanks again for explaining how Void glitch works!

Hi, I am trying to do the glitch, but I am not getting the text box after I do the 1st 63 E followed by the 1 N. I am following the steps exactly and am not going over the step locations. Do I need to stop on the step tile exactly? Or can I stop before it and slowly creep up to the correct tile? If anyone knows please let me know, thanks

Is the Arceus that you get from the glitch transferable, i would also ask that if I changed its location obtained to Hall of Origin and lv'ed it to 100 would it transfer to further pokemon games?

[suljko]

nvm you can as long as its lv'ed to lv 100

I got arceus, but instead of leaving pal park area I made a mistake which led into me fighting ( and losing miserably) against cynthia, which made me teleport to a pokemon center in palpark mode. as you said the RETIRE activates the fourth script right, well in Oreburgh City this activates a rather interesting cutscene by your rival, which makes him push you one to the left, you can also push yourself behind doors to activate the void glitch in a considerable easier fashion. Issues here being: I do not know how to use the void myself other than watching the video, you can only save at areas like contests, pokecentra's etc. as you're still in palpark mode, you can enter trainerbattles, but you can't use fly or fight wild pokemons. Also using the RETIRE button inside of the Pal Park exit you get pushed down into the void extremely easely, and in Hearthome city you can desync pokemons following you or have multiple following at once.. even though I don't think thats one particularly usefull. anyway, this would make a '1time tweaking' method, assuming that you'd find a way to whatever location/legendary you wanna get too.

Wow, this can be very interesting!

I already figured everything here out a while ago. Pal park mode based void entries are completely useless but I didn't know losing to Cynthia didn't cause the crash like what happens when you win

Hey, it causes a white\black out after all.

Was gonna try this; Platinum save got completely wiped by me trying to tweak lolwut

As far as I know, there currently isn't a method to get Arceus in Platinum, so you kinda lost your save file for nothing. RIP.

And that's why I always use R4's save backuping features while glitching on gen 4 games.
Bad to hear that though.

You can't even enter the void in Platinum, surprised some people don't know this
