It became possible in GSC to clone with a single cart. Switch boxes and time a restart correctly during the save and bingo bango, you have a cloned pokemon with whatever item it was holding.
This was awesome for getting extra Master Balls and Rare Candies.
You could clone items in the original games too iirc you would go swimming somewhere near cerulean city and keep going back and forth over the same spot and I think it would buffer overflow the item count for a certain slot in your backpack with a nearly infinitely high number.
If you’re talking about the missingno glitch, you’d add 128 to the item count of your 6th item. This had the added bonus of potentially triggering an overflow if you already had 126 or more items there.
Yup, go to coffee guy who shows you how to catch Pokémon, fly to Cinnabar Island and go straight right, surf and swim up and down without leaving the shore, enjoy scrambled encounter data

Jesus that was like a quarter of a century ago…
It’s funny, the things that stick in your mind aren’t always the things you would expect

To this day, I think what set me on a path of hermit isolation and no friends, is the fact that they patched that in Pokemon Yellow.
