Today, we’re gonna be covering glitches for Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen. These Gen 3 remakes of the Gen 1 games were originally released for the game boy advance 22 years ago but were also re-released on the switch a few weeks ago. Combining sprites in battle, muting the game's music, and arbitrary code execution. Which allows you to duplicate any items, spawn any Pokemon you want, such as Mew, skip events, and just about anything else you can think of. Enjoy!
