The Berry glitch (Japanese: きのみ問題Berry problem) is a glitch only found in early versions of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire which affects the game's internal calendar. The name of the glitch comes from the fact that the first thing a player will usually notice is that all Berries that have been planted have ceased growing. The glitch occurs 366 days after the game is first started, or 366 days after the internal battery is replaced, and causes all calendar-based events to be delayed by 366 days. After the glitch was officially acknowledged by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company, they provided several methods to mitigate the effects of the glitch, and incorporated a permanent fix into later production runs of the game.

Explanation
The game cartridge contains a real-time clock (RTC) which keeps track of the year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and day of the week. When the RTC is first turned on, its date is set to January 1, 2000. Because the game has no need for an actual calendar system, it converts the RTC's year, month, and day data into a single 'day number'. The conversion function has a flaw, however: it will only count years (adding 365 or 366 days for each year or leap year) starting from 2001. So, while the RTC clock is reporting the year as 2000 or 2001, in both cases, the conversion equates this to 'add 0 days to the day number'. This means that, for the first 366 days the RTC runs (starting from January 1, 2000), the game's day number will count from 1 to 366 normally, but when the RTC clock reports January 1, 2001, the game's day number will start from 1 again.
If, for example, a Sitrus Berry was planted on December 31, 2000 according to the RTC, which the game interprets as day 366, it will be scheduled to be fully grown on day 367. Due to the glitch, 'day 367' will not happen until the RTC reaches January 2, 2002. The result is that the growth of the Berry appears to be frozen for 366 days. Other effects of this glitch include:
- Random events which are calculated once per day, including Energy Guru and Lilycove Dept. Store sales, service days at the Mauville Game Corner, the random number for Mirage Island, and weather conditions on Route 119 and Route 123, will be frozen until 366 days after the game was last played before the glitch took effect.
- Drawings at the Pokémon Lottery Corner, NPCs who offer free Berries daily, and the man in Pacifidlog Town who gives TM27 (Return) or TM21 (Frustration) weekly, will be frozen until 366 days after these events were last used.
- The number of successful rocket launches at the Mossdeep Space Center will be reset to 1.
The glitch does not affect the evolution of Eevee into Espeon or Umbreon, or the tides in Shoal Cave, because these events are based only on the current time, not the day number.
Similar effects with a dead or replaced battery
Dead battery
When the game cartridge's CR1616 internal battery runs dry, the in-game clock will also stop, resulting in very similar symptoms to the above. However, cartridges that have a dead battery will display a message after the title screen warning of the dry battery and the fact that clock-based events will no longer occur. In contrast, games being affected by the Berry glitch will not display this message.
The only way to fix this issue is to replace the battery. It is also possible for a game with a dead battery to be affected by the Berry glitch, however, meaning replacing the battery will not fix time-based events. Tamil chatrapathi mp3. To further complicate matters, replacing the battery may also cause issues of its own, as explained below.
Replaced battery
Cartridges that have had their battery replaced may also experience similar problems. When the supply of power from the battery is interrupted, the RTC is reset to January 1, 2000. As with the Berry glitch, this reset causes all scheduled calendar-based events to be frozen until the RTC reaches the expected value, which may take many years. This can be solved by starting a new game, or (with additional hardware) by altering the timestamp stored in the save file so it is lower than the RTC value, or by setting the RTC forward so it is greater than the save file timestamp.[1]
Fixing the glitch
The glitch can be fixed with the Berry Program Update from Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, and Emerald; a patch from Pokémon Colosseum, Pokémon XD, Pokémon Channel, Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire, the e-Reader, or a specific interactive demo disc; or by sending the affected game to Nintendo.
If the Berry glitch has not yet begun, these programs will set the RTC forward by 366 days, which prevents the effects of the glitch. If the game is already affected by the Berry glitch, these programs will set the RTC forward to January 2, 2002, the date at which all effects of the glitch end. If the cartridge battery is replaced and a new game is started, the fix will need to be applied again.
Pokémon FireRed/LeafGreen/Emerald patch
- Load FireRed, LeafGreen, or Emerald until the title screen is displayed.
- Press the Select and B buttons. After the new screen loads, press A.
- Insert the Link Cable so that FireRed, LeafGreen, or Emerald is connected to the P1 cable port and Ruby or Sapphire is connected to the P2 port. Once this is done, press A.
- Turn on Ruby or Sapphire while holding the Start and Select buttons.
- Refer to the FireRed, LeafGreen or Emerald game display for further instructions. The patch should be transferred at this time.
Pokémon Colosseum and XD patch
Linking an affected game to Colosseum or Pokémon XD for trading or battling will automatically download the patch. In addition, the Bonus Disc that came with pre-orders of Colosseum can be used to download Jirachi into a game; when this happens, the patch is downloaded as well.
Pokémon Channel patch
Downloading Jirachi from a PAL version of Pokémon Channel will automatically download the patch.
Pokémon Box patch
Linking an affected game to Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire, accessing the Go To Adventure mode, and then saving the game whilst playing will also automatically fix this glitch, with the message 'The Berry Program was updated' appearing with the save confirmation. (This option is not available for Japanese versions.)
e-Reader patch
For Japanese versions, a special set of e-Reader+ cards (ID# 16-A001 & 16-A002) were distributed with Pokémon Scoop's Winter 2004 issue containing the Berry Program Update (Japanese: きのみ問題修理プログラムBerry Problem Repair Program).
GameCube Interactive Demo patch
Specially-marked GameCube demo discs were released to select stores across U.S. and Japan, so players could visit these stores and download the patch from the disc. In addition, players will also receive a ShinyZigzagoon holding a Liechi Berry as a bonus. However, since the demo disc program does not block fixed games, players can receive multiple Zigzagoon by downloading to the same cartridge again.
GBA cartridge patch
Specially made GBA cartridges, with the same function as the GameCube demo discs, were released to select stores across the UK. Players could visit these stores and connect to a GBA system containing one of these cartridges via link cable to download the patch, as well as receiving a shiny Zigzagoon holding a Liechi Berry. As with the GameCube demo discs, the program does not block fixed games, so the Zigzagoon can be received by the same cartridge multiple times.
Sending cartridge to Nintendo
If the player had no opportunity to download the patch, the game could be sent to Nintendo to have it fixed. However, as of August 2012, Nintendo stopped offering to patch the Berry glitch.

Pokemon Ultra Violet Version is a hack of the GameBoy Advance game Pokemon Fire Red Version. This new game has been altered in many ways to make the game more enjoyable, but it still has the same general design and story as the original Nintendo release. Among many other improvements, it has been made so that 1 player with 1 gamesave can play through the entire game and actually catch all of the Pokemon from the first 3 generations.
Right off the bat, when you begin to play you will notice the new title screen. Along with the TitleScreen you may (or may not) notice that the stock names chosen for you (if you press start with no name typed) have been augmented to reflect the game title, you will not find FIRE or RED as a name anymore, but ULTRA and VIOLET… also the rival names have been altered to match a fictitious rival game (based on blue version).
Also, as you are getting your first Pokemon you may or may not notice an option to Catch your First Pokemon. If you talk to Professor Oak without choosing any of his 3 Pokemon, he realizes you do not want his hand me downs, and offers to let you catch your first Pokemon by your self. He will take you to one of his facilities and let you throw your fill of Safari Balls at some rare Pokemon until one is finally your Partner. Be sure to catch a good one, you will never be able to go back to that area again. If you choose this option, while you are gone, your impatient Rival picks Charmander as his partner.
All pokemon from Fire Red and Leaf Green, that are catchable, will be residing in the area that they were obtainable in the regular version of the game. For example; on route 24 in Fire Red you can find Oddish, but in Leaf Green you will find Bellsprout… in Ultra Violet, you can find BOTH Oddish and Bellsprout.
There are 2 instances where you are given a choice between 2 Pokemon. In Mt. Moon you choose between Kabuto and Omanyte (by picking a fossil) and in Saffron you pick either Hitmonlee or Hitmonchan after defeating the Karate Master. In Ultra Violet you are allowed to take BOTH Fossils and BOTH fighting Pokemon. This makes it so there is not random location with these rare Pokemon residing. It would be silly to find extinct Pokemon chilling out on Route 14 wouldn’t it. The 3 starter Pokemon are scattered throughout the land. They are rare and in logical locations. Prof. Oak was a real traveler back in his youth.
Pokemon that you need to trade to evolve have been modified so they evolve in some other way now. You don’t need to trade to do anything. Even Pokemon above 151 that would require you to trade with an item now evolve without trading, either by stone or level or some other logical manner. That includes Eevee and her night/day evolutions. Fire Red has no clock, so Umbreon and Espeon were impossible to get… now they are not. (no, a clock has not been added) All these, along with Mew being added in an undisclosed location, that covers all of the first generation and nearly all of the second generation Pokemon.
For the few remaining Gen 2 Pokemon that you could not originally aquire in Fire Red or Leaf Green, they have all been added in the Sevii Islands. All the ones (plus some) that belonged in Altering Cave are there, and all the rest are hidden throughout the islands in logical locations. Getting Hooh and Lugia and Dyoxis is now possible without going to a Nintendo event. You get to travel to the last 2 islands and catch them as if you had attended the event, you simply buy the ticket at the store and take the boat as normal.
The final Pokemon that need to be added are the 3 mystical dogs; Raikou, Entei, and Suicune. In Fire Red or Leaf Green, one dog is released based on your choice of Pokemon at the beginning of the game. That dog is then released into the wilderness of Kanto and you must find him and catch him… What about the other 2? You cannot get them in Fire Red or Leaf Green without trading. New locations had to be implemented, with new events that allowed players to catch the other 2 dogs. the correct 2 dogs. So if you look hard enough in Kanto you might just find the 2 dogs that are not roaming around chilling by the road or perhaps in a cave somewhere. Based on which starting Pokemon you chose, you may find any of the 3 in either location. Charmander has Suicune roaming Kanto, Raikou in location 1 and Entei in location 2. Bulbasaur has Entei roaming Kanto, Suicune in location 1 and Raikou in location 2. Squirtle has Raikou roaming Kanto, Entei in location 1 and Suicune in location 2.
There has been some store and text modifications to match the new layout of Pokemon and new events. For example, Fire Red and Leaf Green have no sun stones… you cannot evolve Sunkern without a sun stone. So now sun stones are available in the Pokemart.
- UPDATE (1.20)-
There has been a new Island added. To get to the island you must talk to the girl in the southern most house in Virmillion city. This new island, 4-Points Isle, houses ALL gen 3 pokemon… there are several new events and areas to explore. (updating will not hurt version 1.10 gamesaves)
- UPDATE (1.21)-
Final update… no more work will be done on this hack…
All game ending glitches have been fixed (many many minor glitches have also been fixed.
EVERY Pokemon has been double checked as obtainable, a few new events have been added, (a celebi event in berry forest, try killing celebi before you catch it)
Safe to play with all previous gamesaves…
Also, a players guide has been added to the .rar… Use it… Its got the locations of every pokemon, item, and tm in the game… as well as an in depth walkthrough of every event…
- 1.22 UPDATE-
Players that cannot utilize in game saving (cell phone emulators) can now skip the game reset that occurs after fighting the e4… and can play the after game content…
