Obtaining Articuno using egg trick

Haven't figured out how to get the actual and natural lvl 5 moves. So today, taking a break from trying a lot of ways to come up with hatched eggs having its actual lvl 5 moves, I decided to hatch an Articuno from the egg trick.

If we look at the hex number of Articuno from Glitch City Laboratories' Big hex list. We will see that it shares the same number with transform and dragon fang. This means we'll need 2 parent pokemon that will pass on the move transform. However, as we all probably know, there are only 2 pokemons in G/S/C that knows this move the amazing Ditto and the almost impossible to find Mew! 2 pokemons that does not produce eggs.

I found a solution of passing Ditto's transform move (or if you want to use Mew) to an egg (any egg, it doesn't matter what moves the parents has)

Requirements

- #255 glitched pokemon. (incidentally this pokemon is another form of #000 and appears after finishing the egg trick). #255 has the "ability" to copy any pokemon's moves, stats, gender, even species. It works much like 'M Charizard and or Q trick. The only difference is, #255 works its magic in your party. (not inside a box, which 'M Charizard requires).

This is what your party should look like,

Ditto
any pokemon
any pokemon
any pokemon
Egg
#255

I used an egg from magikarp. Now switch # 255 with the egg. Your party should now look like this,

#255
any pokemon
any pokemon
any pokemon
Egg
Ditto

Next, open the pc and using the 'move pkmn w/o mail' move a pokemon to the party.

O.T. (pokemon from box)
#255
any pokemon
any pokemon
any pokemon
Egg
Ditto

We should now have 7 in our party. Next, give #255 to day care. The party should now look like this,

O.T. (pokemon from box)
#255
any pokemon
any pokemon
any pokemon
Ditto (This is the egg and have now copied Ditto's name, LEVEL, stats and the move Transform) We can't see this if we click the egg.
Ditto (should now have a mushed sprite)

If you check out the egg (now named Ditto still has the egg sprite) it will have this message 'this Egg needs a lot more time to hatch'. Now many people believed that this is a "bad egg". However it is not, it just doubled its hatching time.

Ok, now store this Egg named Ditto in a box and setup your party for the egg glitch. You should come up with a #000. You can do this using #255 (maybe i'll write another article on how to do this)

Next follow the steps for the egg glitch. With a few exception, this time we will follow the original steps for the egg glitch. Deposit O.T and 2nd pokemon. Move the egg (named Ditto) from the pc using 'move pkmn w/o mail' to the party. Deposit the next TWO pokemon only. The egg (named Ditto) should be holding an item after we deposit the pokemon under it. And lose the item on the 2nd pokemon deposit. Hatch the egg (named Ditto). Remember hatching time is doubled and may take 45mins, atmost, riding up and down Goldenrod City.

EGG (named Ditto) status is as follows

''This Egg needs a lot more time to hatch"

''Wonder what's inside, it needs time though''

"It moves around inside sometimes, It must be close to hatching"

"It's making sounds inside. It's going to hatch soon"

Articuno will now rise from its Icy slumber! With a pokedex entry, its normal stats and LEVEL of the Ditto copied. Enjoy. ^_~
