Will the Emerald cloning glitch always work if done correctly?

Question

If not, what are the risks (other than getting unlucky and wasting a few minutes of my time)?

Comments

Logically, the only way something can fail is if it's NOT done correctly. So technically, if done properly, the Emerald cloning glitch will always work. But I'm nitpicking, ignore me ;D

Back I the days, way way back in the days, my cousin got his entire saved wiped when he tried to use this glitch.

I mean, if I timed the save incorrectly I could delete something else, or something like that.

You're asking what could go wrong?

Pretty much, yeah.

Answer 1

No matter what I've done with the cloning Glitch it will always work.

Unless you're cloning a Pokemon with no HP because of hacking (due to the order of things you can't do the berry glitch to lower it to 0 without fainting it) in which the clone will be a bad egg.
