"In my other run (which I never finished), this took me among the 150 tries.

But by making sure I had enough PP for Ember and a slightly higher Attack stat and one Poke Ball more, this was easier.

I activate the so-called Mew glitch that makes it possible to trigger ANY Pokemon as long as the last opposing Pokemon has the correct Special stat. I use Growl six times on Shellder. This lowers Mew's level to 1, setting up another glitch."

AWESOME. I know this may be a bit old for some, but I figured a lot of people wouldn't have heard of this. Rest Assured, no cheat device is used. This was actually used in an official speed run for the Speed Demos Archive, and all runs must very specifically not use any cheat devices.

Bought myself a Game Genie adapter when I used to play Red and got Mew that way and I got Celebi the same way as well ^^

I do the fly trick to go to Lavender Town, beat up a Slowpoke and catch a level 7 Mew(as far as I can remember, am not sure if it was Slowpoke, the last time I did it was 2003 I think, lol).

You do know you can recharge the battery by turning the game on and leaving it, right?
By dead I mean that recharging it isn't working.

So how comes my Pokemon Red and Yellow doesnt save anymore?

When I start a new game, and save, and turn it off, nothing appears the next time I turn it on...

My japanese version of Blue is still working fine, but I cant trade any pokemon from other version to it...

same problem as minox, the battery has completely caked itself. i remember this, i always caught mew at lvl1 i battled misty and then all of a sudden i have a lvl 100 one =). that was cool. i did it the cerulean/bug catcher/nugget bridge way btw.

The batteries are designed to be recharged when the unit is on. Of course, sometimes batteries just flat out die, but I think it's just a simple lithium ion battery (which can be bought in most stores). The hardest part however is actually getting the cart open...

I've got no interest atm to change the battery of my Pkmn Red because that wouldn't get my old save back.

Wow, I had no idea this was possible like a lot of other people said. There were so many made up glitches at the time from penises who thought making up cheats would be funny. I just assumed there never really was one, as one was never widely confirmed.
So yeah, I'm one of those who bought a cheat cartridge just for Red and Silver. Red is the first proper video game I owned, I was so crazy about Pokemon lol. Apart from educational PC titles to be run off DOS, which sucked badly.

I bought the cheat device to get my mew, lol. But I did use the glitch to get Missingno. I remember boasting to my friends that I had 152.
