'''SPECIAL''' is placeholder text in {{GSC}} that appears as a Pokégear map name for when the player is in the second floor of a Pokémon Center but the last map in memory (to be loaded when the player goes down the stairs) is the second floor of the Pokémon Center itself. <!--Does this apply to the Pokémon Center trade and battle rooms as well?-->
▲''This article is about the placeholder term for a map which is displayed on the Town Map as "SPECIAL", for other uses for non-glitch and non-beta elements such as the Special stat please see [[bp:Special|Bulbapedia's disambiguation page]].''
The index number of "SPECIAL" is 00 in the Pokégear map. According to the Pokégear map, "SPECIAL" is set in Johto, and its coordinates are off the map.
The second floor of a Pokémon Center is in actuality a single map<!--Although individual 2F maps apparently exist! http://hax.iimarck.us/topic/176/-->, and the Pokégear map takes the name for this map from the last place that the player visited, such as "CHERRYGROVE CITY" for Cherrygrove City's Pokémon Center 1F as the last location, "GOLDENROD CITY" for Goldenrod City's Pokémon Center 1F and so on.
"SPECIAL" also appears as the last entry in a location list dumped in a [http://iimarck.us/dumps/dcrystal.txt Pokémon Crystal text dump] with two entries that may be unused, [[N/A]] and "POKéMON MANSION".
Curiously, SPECIAL shares its name with the Special stat from {{RBY}}; games that {{GSC}} were built on.
