Partially unused and glitched: Difference between revisions

**All MissingNo. Pokédex numbers were to set 000, and in Japanese Pokémon Blue, MissingNo. were given the placeholder Pokédex entry "コメント さくせいちゅう" (meaning 'comment to be written') and became the ??? species. This was not translated, resulting in a glitched Pokédex entry in the localized Pokémon Red and Blue and the corruption of MissingNo.'s original height and weight (1.0 m (3.3 ft) and 10.0 kg (22.1 lb), respectively), showing instead a height of 10.0 ft (3.1 m) and a weight of 3507.2 lb (1590.8 kg).

**No MissingNo. can learn any moves by level-up or evolve (unlike the other glitch Pokémon), however they have starting moves and learnable TM/HM moves (the results of glitch data extrapolated by Pokédex No. 000/also the reason why 'M (00) also starts with Water Gun, Water Gun, Sky Attack and not intentional).

*Many 'Pokémon' that retrieve [[placeholder]] data in general, such as [[??????????]] and the function to make its sprite a "?" in a circle, [[? (glitch Pokémon)]]'s sprite; in those cases they are commonly forced as [[glitch Pokémon]] so bring some invalid data with them (such as base stats for glitch Pokémon with index numbers other than 0 and 252-276/index numbers greater than 439). Possibly [[- (glitch Pokémon)|-]] (while appearing as an Egg named "-" that partially behaves like one, it has base stats and types which are glitched and were never intentionally programmed. This is a similar case to [[Generation II glitch Egg (disambiguation)|Generation II glitch Egg]] before it, and its back-sprites which are glitch sprites).

*[[Juggler (unused Trainer class)]]'s name was originally ジャック (Jack) during a period of development when he was a Trainer known as Shinjuku Jack (a reference to Takayuki Haneda, pseudonym "Shinjuku Jacky"; who mained Jacky Byran in the game [[wikipedia:Virtua Fighter|Virtua Fighter]] by [[wikipedia:Sega|Sega]]) before all references to Jack were removed (except as a pre-set name) and the Trainer in his place became the unused Juggler copy. However, a list of Trainer Classes in Japanese mentioning Jack where the unused Juggler would have been remains in the final versions of Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions.

*A similar situation to the Juggler also applies to the [[Chief (unused Trainer class)|Chief]]. Furthermore, some extra unused information can be retrieved from his Japanese name Silph's Chief or Silph's Manager (シルフのチーフ), possibly suggesting he was linked to the Silph Co. before being cut from the game. In the source code leak, the Chief also used Blaine's newer design (like in the final games) instead of the Scientist sprite although this did not survive by the time the final ROMs were released. (At the time, the actual Blaine [https://tcrf.net/File:PokemonRGBY-BlaineOriginal.png had his own cut design], which can still be seen in the manuals of the final game)
