Though the relevant glitch Pokémon will be referred to as "??????????" on the opponent's side, the same glitch Pokémon may have a glitch name on the nickname screen and summary screen, such as a shortened or unchanged version of a move name (e.g. "RBOLT", hex: '''0201''' instead of THUNDERBOLT) depending on its index number.
==Technical information==

Most of the Species Name/Pokémon Data of the first thousand Glitch Pokémon are common between different language versions of Ruby & Sapphire / Emerald / Fire Red & Leaf Green. ▼
However, aside from the Species name of the very first Glitch Pokémon that are based off Moves Names, most of a Glitch Pokémon Data is completely different between different versions of Generation 3 games (differences between an English Ruby and an English Sapphire, differences between an English Ruby and an English Emerald, differences between an English Ruby and a Spanish Ruby), leading to hundreds of thousands of different Glitch Pokémon across 6x5=30 Generation 3 Games.▼

In every Generation
▲In every Generation 3 game, when a NPC such as Slateport Pokemon Fan Club Journalist or Island Two Old Woman reads a Glitch Pokémon species name, the whole species name is read, which overwrites a string of RAM data in the process.
Every NPC that read a species name except Slateport Pokémon Fan Club Journalist will freeze the game when reading a species name who contains more than 100-200 characters.
Making a Glitch Pokémon gain levels can freeze the game (supposed to either be because of an evolution attempt, loading the glitch pokémon species name, trying to learn too many moves at once, trying to learn a glitch move, or not being able to parse with the experience curve).▼

In Emerald and Fire Red & Leaf Green, a Glitch Pokémon species name is fully read (and fully written in RAM) when the player goes over the Glitch Pokémon in the PC.▼

If the species name is long enough, the overwriting can mess up with the Pokémon Selection mechanic and allow for Cloning and Reverse Cloning. Species name even longer can alter the music as well as the overworld background, even though these effects are not retained by saving and soft-resetting.
The
Having a Glitch Pokémon that allows for Cloning and Reverse Cloning in Fire Red and Leaf Green is enough to make these versions autonomous regarding Pomeg Glitch setup and Pomeg Glitch Data Corruption (no more trades from Emerald are needed).▼
The inverse cloning procedure from Glitch Pokémon species name is also the only way to discard Bad Eggs obtained in FireRed and LeafGreen.

Some Glitch Pokémon species name can be used to change the color of certain graphical entities of the PC Screen depending on the currently selected Pokémon : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOXh7bZRlMo
In Fire Red and Leaf Green, a Glitch Pokémon species name is always replaced by ?????????? in the summary, and its summary sprite is always the ? white mark inside circles
The PC sprite of a Glitch Pokémon will always be a copy of the sprite of a Pokémon in the same box, but with another color palette. However, the sprites of the Glitch Pokémon's Glitch Types can cause heavy graphical glitches in the summary screen.
Some Glitch Type sprites can turn some PC Pokémon into Bad Eggs if the player goes to other summaries, allow to see the summary of empty slots, allow to see some summaries of PC Pokémon that are in another box, or freeze the game.▼
▲Some Glitch Type sprites can turn some PC Pokémon into Bad Eggs if the player goes to other summaries, allow to see the summary of empty slots, allow to see some summaries of PC Pokémon that are in another box, or freeze the game. As a result, the summary of a slight portion of Glitch Pokémon cannot be opened safelt/without crashing in Fire Red & Leaf Green.
Glitch Pokémon in Fire Red & Leaf Green seem to be hatchable with no major issue as their sprite is stable and as their species name is not written in RAM.
In Emerald, only the 10 first characters of a Glitch Pokémon are read in the summary page.
A Glitch Pokémon Sprite can be the ? white mark inside circles, a variant with a different color palette, a block of glitchy mess, or a glitched sprite that crashes the game.
The Pokémon's second sprite and sprite animation is supposed to be the cause behind the important number of Glitch Pokémon that crash the game when their summary is seen.
Glitch Type sprites can also freeze/crash the game. There seems to be more Glitch Types that crash the game in Emerald than in Fire Red & Leaf Green.▼
Most of the Glitch Pokémon in Emerald crash the game when their summary page is opened, or when they hatch from an Egg.▼

In Ruby and Sapphire, the whole species name is read when viewing a Glitch Pokémon summary.▼
▲Most of the Glitch Pokémon in Emerald crash the game when their summary page is opened, or when they hatch from an Egg. Thus, a double corruption is mandatory to obtain them in order to not go through a hatching sequence.
It seems that only a handful of Glitch Type Sprites can freeze the game, even though viewing the summary screen of a Glitch Pokémon causes a string of bytes in RAM to be overwritten by the species name.▼

This RAM overwriting can be used to remove the Safari Mode while inside Safari Zone, even though a large part of the story flags and bag contents becomes corrupted (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yD7UCBv0ozA ).
