So even though I didn't know this fact before, this is going to bother me until it finally does get released.

so i've been playing pok'emon red on my 3DS for a while now and came across the most bizarre thing.

i tried doing steps to do the item duplication glitch, which requires you to talk to an old man who teaches you how to catch a pok'emon, then you immediately fly to cinnabar island and start swimming on the very right edge of the island to fight the glitched pok'emon, MISSINGNO, and by defeating it your sixth item in your item slot goes up to 100.

unfortunately i didn't fight MISSINGNO. instead it took me to a level 137 muk. yes, you read that right. it had unbelievably strong defense, but out of sheer curiosity i caught it. strangely it got experience points, but after a few fights it leveled up, or leveled DOWN rather, to 100. the stats remained the same though and now muk is the strongest pok'emon in my party. guess i'm close to cheesing the elite 4 now lol.
