Line 27:
Coincidentally, both MissingNo. and 'M (00) are common with the [[left-facing shore tile glitch]]/[[old man glitch]], and these were among the earliest known glitches in the English player base. In the English versions of Pokémon Red and Blue (unlike other versions like English Pokémon Yellow) the unused [[Bird type|Bird-type]] also belongs to MissingNo. and 'M (00), meaning the Bird-type was an example of unused content in the Pokémon games known early on.
In the Japanese player base (where the left-facing shore tile glitch is impossible), the [[Select glitch]] (exclusive to Japanese Red/Green/Blue) and [[Trainer escape glitch]] (accessible in both Japanese and international versions but typically referred to as "fifth" in the Japanese player base), as well as [[Move 0x00 corruption (Generation I)|move 0x00 corruption]] (all versions but easy to set up with Select glitch or Red and Blue using a move swap on an opponent with more than one move with Ditto and Transform), or [[unterminated name glitch item instant encounter]] (provided the front sprite is not problematic) are typically used in its place. In the Japanese player base, [[GlitchDexJP/RG:255|アネﾞデパミﾞ (FF)]] is also similarly well-known (in comparable popularity to MissingNo. and 'M), and can easily be seen replacing the first Pokémon with the [[dokokashira door glitch]]. The Japanese equivalent to 'M (00) is [[GlitchDexJP/RG:000|ィﾞゃゾＡ]] (also Pokédex number 0).
In the French, German, Italian and Spanish versions, the left-facing shore tile glitch was partially patched in the Italian and Spanish versions of Red and Blue. The Italian and Spanish versions require using [[walk through walls]] on the coast instead of Surfing. In all versions of Pokémon Yellow, the old man glitch was also fixed. For the affected versions, this (and versions where MissingNo.'s front sprite freezes) made the accessibility of finding MissingNo. harder, but it can still be encountered with the Trainer escape glitch in all versions. Additionally, the Spanish and Italian versions have their own [[Grass/rock Surfing glitch|exclusive glitch]] for finding MissingNo. or 'M (00), which some native Italian and Spanish players have exploited.
Sometimes, specifically for Fossil and Ghost MissingNo. (182-184) because they bypass a freezing front sprite while still duplicating the sixth item, players for versions such as Pokémon Yellow (English) will use a sub-glitch such as the Ditto glitch or a chain of encounters when [[Trainer escape glitch#Trade NPC Pokémon and resulting Pokémon|speaking with a trade NPC before returning to the route]]) to access Special stats as high as 182-184.
