PHS glitch

PHS Glitch is a glitch that occurs when acquiring Yuffie Kisaragi in Final Fantasy VII. The glitch lets the player to use the PHS-command and so change characters in the party where it shouldn't be normally possible.

In the area where Yuffie is acquired in the party, a fake Save Point exists. Normally, when the player goes to the Save Point and enters menu, it is seen that both 'PHS' and 'Save'-command are inaccessible, and after exiting the menu, Yuffie has ran away. The player has to go to the Save Point, walk out from it, and enter the menu, where suddenly 'PHS'-command is accessible. If the player switches the party members, the sprites and talk-lines of the members you had when entering the area still exists. But when the player answers wrong in the discussion with Yuffie or enters the menu in the Save Point, making Yuffie run away, the lines of the members you changed in PHS appears. For example, if you changed Vincent Valentine to Barret Wallace and Yuffie runs away, Barret's lines appear but Vincent's sprite still stays.
