Battle Glitches
Every game, let along RPG has their fair share of glitches. If you use Game Genie or Game Shark there are almost an infinite amount of Glitches. But without them there are still a lot. Earthbound is no different.
Most of Earthbound's glitches (like the Debug Menu) can only be accessed by Game Genie, however not all of them. Using the Rock Candy code (pg 114 of the player's guide) I found another one another one of Earthbound's non-game genie codes. This glitch currently is pretty pointless, but if you mess around with it, this glitch could be very helpful. I've tried it twice and I got similar results.
This is how I got the glitch: I was in Lumine Hall battling a battling two enemies. I had Flash Beta casted on me and Paula was "feeling strange". She used a Rock Candy with a sugar packet, and since she was feeling strange it went on an enemy. The battle continued. Paula was still feeling strange after a few turns, and used the Rock Candy and sugar on another enemy. This time things go messed up! Whenever an enemy hit Poo it called him Jeff. And Poo kept doing the same move (the move he did before the game messed up). The move still affected the enemy, but I couldn't control it. The second time I did this I was able to exit the battle just fine, but the first time I wasn't so lucky. When I exited the battle 's got a level up and went to level 1. This continued until he got to level 255, then it went back to 0. So I reset the game, and tried it the second time. The second time I fought different enemies, but except for the level up thing it was the same.
If anyone has encountered this glitch before, or has found any more info on it, please email me at [email protected]. Thanks!
