What glitches have you had in Pearl, Diamond, or Platinum?
I was battling when at the beginning of my turn, it turned to Rain. Then it said "[Pokemon] took damage from [ability]." for every Pokemon on the field (It was a double battle). It then proceeded to do this with Sandstorm, Hail, and Sun.
There was also another time when I was going to water some berries, and they got large white spots all over the rectangle in which the sprite was. When I moved, it stopped.
Only glitch I've come across(without me hacking) is when I interact with the TV when it's a commercial, the screen freezes for an instant.
I used the WTW code to get to Shaymin once, and there was a Shaymin mirage just off-screen from as far north as I could get without the code.

That glitch is pretty common, and easy to reproduce. To activate it, you have to use Pursuit to KO an opposing Pokémon which is switching, while a weather condition (except Rain) is active. Also, the person using Pursuit must be the host if you're in a multiplayer battle, or the player (I think) in-game. The glitched weather lasts forever; however, the original weather which triggers it disappears after 5 turns as normal. It also works with fog, Uproar, Gravity and Trick Room; doing it in Trick Room will result in infinite Gravity, Uproar, fog, hail, sun, sandstorm, and rain :O
The glitched weathers have the same effects as the normal ones (if glitched sandstorm and rain are active, Swift Swim activates, and Rock-types get a Sp. Def boost etc). It only works in Platinum, though.
Anyway, I have a strange (pointless) glitch. After leveling up my low-health Infernape against a wild Pokémon, the warning sound continued during the battle victory music (normally, it stops as soon as you beat the wild Pokémon).
I was talking to a man after I battled him in the secret part of victory road in platinum and he litteratly said Whoa followed by two pages of absolutely nothing. And there was a letter a on the next page.
On the route to the left of Pastoria City(Sorry, my brain is going blank), I got stuck in the marsh stuff above that one lady who is also stuck in the mud, and when I got out, I was standing on her head. I di it a couple times after this because I thought that it was kinda funny.
In Diamond, when I was in a double battle with some Galactic Grunts at Lake Verity (the one north of Twinleaf), the female grunt's Glameow used Mega Drain - which, coincedentally, it can't learn by any means AT ALL. The same thing happened with a Glameow in Crystal Cave in PMD2, so it might actually be something about how my DS reads the code, if that's at all possible....
Did the Glameow use Assist beforehand? And, actually, I've had Glameow use Mega Drain on me before in Crystal Crossing, as well. I thought it was like that Poochyena in the sprite comic, where it learned mega/giga drain by TM.
The more people talk about it the more familiar it sounds. I may have had the same experience, but I don't remember. I don't like Glameow/Purugly that much so I probably wasn't paying too much attention.:(

Hmm, strange. Would he happen to have been a Black Belt, near the top (North) of the cave? If so, then it's probably a wrong text pointer (instead of the game displaying the proper text, it tries to display some other data as text). I battled a Black Belt there, and his after-battle speech was was a few widely-spaced letters. I thought my game was messed up, but then I remembered seeing something similar here.
On my diamond game, in Hearthome City i think, where you stop the ladie's Buneary from running away, the buneary and the lady are still there, and even after I've completed the game, they're still there!
The wierd part is though, they're like merged as one, like the lady and the buneary inside one another!
You can't walk through them or anything, they're solid, and when you talk to them you get nothing, like talking to a brick wall, but shaped like a Buneary/Lady :P
I'd be interested to see if anyone else has encountered this, if not, I'll try and photograph it and paste it here :)
