Line 41:
#'''?''': The game will use the error handler "?" to refer to the unused item with a hexadecimal identifier of 00, which has undefined data and a description of "?".
#'''Teru-Sama''' (x29): 29 items all of which are referred to as '''Teru-Sama''' with a description of '?' exist in Pokémon Gold and Silver which are presumably error handlers for undefined item data, or possibly placeholders for items which were once planned to exist. This can be supported by the fact that their hexadecimal identifiers are often in between items which were used in the final game. The name '''Teru-Sama''' is a Japanese romanisation, which roughly translates itself as 'lord sunshine' There are less Teru-Samas in Pokémon Crystal because some of these were eventually changed into real items such as the Egg Ticket.
#'''Unused HMs''': Item data exists for HM08-HM12, regardless of the fact that there are only seven HMs which can be obtained through normal gameplay. Within the TM/HM pocket, these items have no use and use '?' as their description, with the exception of HM12 which has the description 'Attacks 5 turns with rising power' - which may refer to Rollout, but may simply be 'purely glitch', in the sense the game is attempting to read information from a close byte as description data. Like TM51-TM55 in Generation I, these were probably added as filler data for identifiers of 251-255, as identifiers 195 to 250 correspond to real TMs/HMs.
#'''Park Balls as item data''': Similarly to the Safari Ball in other generations; although the Park Ball can normally only be used temporarily through the use of an additional interface in the Bug Pokémon catching competition, item data for the Park Ball and a description can be viewed from the player's bag through the use of a [[game-altering device]]. The Park Ball occupies a hexadecimal identifier of B1 (177).
