It's real!

You most likely saw my post in my thread, explaining why missingno can take that form, am i correct?  I also have another theory about what missingno IS.  It's a glitch value, a... glitch alarm, if you will.  If the game tries to access invalid pokemon IDs, missingno is programmed to show up.  At id no. 000, it can only access invalid battle coding, thus the glitch sprites, and its cousin, M', is not much different.  Now, M' is also an interesting theory.  My hypothesis is that kangaskan and cubone WERE to be related.  M', before completion, was brushed under the digital carpet and locked at ID 000, with missingno.  M' was also to be the ghost, because, if you look at it, the mother marowak was restless over its child.  It was haunting the pokemon tower in search of its child, and that is what M' was to do.

one missingno is at 000. the other glitch pokemon (including some other missingnos) are at pokedex values 152-255.

All invalid IDs. Missingno is HOSTED at 000, and can appear in those values because they're invalid.

I used an AT&T Code Scanner on Missingno.

It said LAVENDER...
Creepy...

Of course it did.

MissingNo. is just the game trying to load memory from an undefined space. It ends up pulling out garbage data instead of an actual Pokemon, so it looks like a jumble of pixels. Not all glitch Pokemon are MissingNo.; there's over a hundred more in Red/Blue alone (but their names are mostly made out of unreadable glitch blocks).

I was the Pokemon glitch master back in '05-'06. I still have my old GameShark

Explain its name.  Its signature "glitch reverse L" appearence is garbage data.  Missingno is not actually a glitch.  It WARNS you when you have a glitch, in the terms that your game tried to load invalid pokemon IDs.

The only legit thing about Missingno. is it's name, which was programmed by the developers to be a default in case the game tried to access invalid data.


Another creepy thing about Missingno. I discovered: When you add up the amount of hexadecimal values that make Missingno. which are not shared by other Pokémon to 151, it equals 190. Satoshi said he planned for there to be 190 Pokémon originally. This means that the "solo Missingno.s" are data remnants of formatted Pokémon. Supporters of the ???->Cubone->Marowak->Kangashan theory use this to their advantage.
