The trick is done in the third screen of the Left-Down path of the Northern Crater, and requires the player not to pick up the X-Potion from the chest there just yet. This glitch allows the player to use the Save Crystal in the Northern Crater one time, creating a save point at a specific screen while keeping the actual Save Crystal item in the inventory allowing one to either keep the Save Crystal (for the purpose of a Perfect Game) or to create a second save point anywhere in the Northern Crater. This glitch was not fixed in any subsequent rereleases. Therefore, it is wise to ignore the crystal and travel through the cave without saving, or saving to a different file, or saving at the place where the party meets up for the final descent. Using the Save Crystal here stops the player from exiting from the top (to travel towards the exit of the cave), and can even limit the player to a single path.
An example of the glitch working is if the item is used in the screen where the party is given the option to split up for the first time (the left and right paths). Like many glitches in Final Fantasy VII, this bug may or may not occur for unknown reasons, and may occur in different locations. The Save Crystal glitch often manifests in the room where the party splits up to find items and the swamp room where the enemy Mover appears. The item will create a save point anywhere in the final dungeon, but after a save point is used in several locations, and the game is reloaded, sometimes the player cannot leave that room, ruining their saved file permanently.
