On rarer occasions, values for address may trigger more than two unique events, for example at least up to the second generation of main series hand-held Pokémon games, an address would manage any specific valid Pokémon's Pokédex entry in order to denote whether it was not seen, has been seen or whether it has been captured by the player. A value of 0-127 would denote that the Pokémon has not been seen yet, a value of 128-254 would denote that the Pokémon has been seen (adds name and page to the Pokédex) and a value of 255 would denote a Pokémon that was captured by the player (adds Pokéball icon and entry data). In [[bp:Generation I|Generation I]], by encountering or capturing a [[glitch Pokémon]] this would add the relevant value (unless it resulted in a value which would for example, equal that of another flag) to an incorrect, or invalid address. Encountering any variation of [[MISSINGNO. (name)|MISSINGNO.]] for example would write the value to the address associated with the item quantity of the sixth item in the player's item pack.
