Glitch weather... 26% damage every turn!!!

Wait a minute, isn't this a game-breaking glitch? Both weather conditions and pursuit are very popular moves, and obviously this glitch is unfair/unfun. Is there something I'm missing, or is battling online in Platinum going to be ruined?

Static owns you.
The Acid Rain glitch has been removed from the English Platinum, and since the English copy's mechanics override the Japanese copies, we don't have to worry about it.

It has NOT been removed from english platinum.
I have TESTED it and it IS still there.

It's there. Smogon just confirmed it.

Of course, being the idiots that they are, Smogon is currently trying to figure out how to implement it into Shoddy Battle... I always knew these people were stupid, and I hope Nintendo figures this out and releases the patch soon. It's obviously not an "intentional glitch" as using Castform essentially makes your game freeze... morons.

I hope someone hacks the smogon site and destroys it....
Bunch of elitists....

Also, hooray!! I shall abuse the glitch all night and day...
However, I'm sure Nintendo will release a Wi-Fi download patch soon enough...

Lmao? Patch a real game cart? It's non-rewritable, morons!

Game Carts have two memory parts, one writable, one non-writable. Hence nintendo was able to patch R/S and fix the berry glitch.

Eh... oh well, if we lose online battling, I guess that's just the way things go.

This kind of glitch is what causes me not to buy games. I happen to like Pursuit, and weather sees heavy use on my teams.

I guess I'm waiting for Platinum 1.1.

Fail. Every game has glitches. Every game in the future will have glitches.

Anyways, I don't see why it matters. Cool glitch, sure. But, most people..if someone does it to them they will just go "You suck. Bye! *click*" So would I.

Fairies do exist!!!
But I thought there are some who don't have that glitch in their carts...
It's kinda unfair if some did have, and some don't.
Don't tell me it's just RANDOM.

Guess we'll just use D/P for online battles...
Or ban at least one of either sandstorm/hail and pursuit.
