The '''Pokédex category glitch''' is a [[glitch]] which only occurs in [[List of revision differences in the core Pokémon games|version 1.0]] of {{FRLG}}, where only the first word in a Pokémon's category name is displayed. For example, Pidgey is called the "Tiny" Pokémon instead of the "Tiny Bird" Pokémon.


In {{RSE}}, the glitch does not occur, despite Ruby and Sapphire being earlier releases and featuring category names with more than one word.
The '''Pokédex Species Glitch''' is a miscellaneous [[glitch]] which only exists in early versions of Pokémon Firered and Leafgreen. In the previous Generation III Pokémon games; the Species name for Pokémon were only one word, for example in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire the Species name for Pidgey was the "Tinybird" Pokémon, instead of the "Tiny Bird" Pokémon. This was because the game engine would ignore any words after spaces so if Pidgey was named the "Tiny Bird" Pokémon, it would appear on the Pokédex as the "Tiny" Pokémon.


==Affected Pokémon==
This is the case for the earlier builds of Pokémon Firered and Leafgreen, since Nintendo decided to give Pidgey its original species name as in Pokémon Red and Blue, a Pokémon's name will be "cut off" to the first word, since Pokémon Firered and Leafgreen almost have the same engine of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. If this [[glitch]] occurs in a player's Pokémon game he or she can be certain that he or she has version 1.0.
