Homebrew I noticed a glitch in Pokemon X/Y today. What would cause it?

When you exit the PC box, one of the buttons briefly displays a string of numbers instead of "log off". What programming mistakes could cause something like this?

I don't have the game in right now, but this is what it shows. "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2" I assume it would carry on longer, but there is not enough space on the button.

you mean something like this?



It's definitely weird, though there could be a miriad of reasons why this happens. My favourite is:

"My guess is that they have two different menu creation functions in separate classes and that the game calls the newer one after the old one. They probably never noticed it because it happens so quickly and so they looked over removing the old code. This sort of thing happens in my own games. That's why tracing is important! "

It's in one of the comments.

no, I doubt its anything like that. and like @Pablitox has shown me, its been found already so something would have come of it by now.

Still interesting nonetheless


Some sort of Easter egg with a reference idk

SciresM did say X/Y/OR/AS are exploitable (to be a primary homebrew exploit). https://twitter.com/SciresM/status/918921897282174976

cool! but the way he words it, it sounds like its the same issue in both games. as far as I know, it doesn't happen in oras.
