The Truth Behind MissingNo...

[Zeroshot]

MissingNo made me BUMP this.

 

MissingNo made you illeagly bump a thread? Oh noez!!

But here's how I see glitches:

Adopted? Whaaaaa? And if he was a glitch' date=' why are his base stats so low. I encountered another glitch pokemon (looked like half Phanphy half Seel) who had 999 SP. DEF.

That's impossible... you posted before and never stated that

 

Why would they use MissingNo as a programing test if it had higher base stats than Arceus. Face it' date=' it did not have 999 base stats (it had 999 advanced stats...) so it was either a LEGENDARY or a really bad glitch...

I tough it was a Phanpy-Seel :?

You failed here. Simply put, MissingNo. was inputted prior to Arceus, and had the qualities it had as a programming run.

 

Nintendo planned on having 256 pokemon prior to Red's release.

 

Well, they had the space for it, at-least.

 

Eh. In Hex-Language:

 

For most variables in gameboy games, the fewest possibilities for the variable is 256 (Hex 100), labeled 0 to 255 (Hex 00 to FF). This goes for most variables in RBY, including the Hex for all the pokemon look up slots. However, only 151 pokemon exist in RBY. So, if their were 256 possibilities, and only 151 [Pokemon] slots defined by the Programmers, what do the other 105 slots have? Glitches. And thus, MissingNo. was created.

 

^ Copied and edited from trsrockin.com.

 

Now, those glitches were planned to be Pokemon, however, RB's release date approached to soon, and the blank spaces weren't taken out. But, they were taken out in time for Yellow's release.

 

MissingNo. is nothing more than an empty Pokemon slot, with what appears to be the stock move-list for all Pokemon before edited, as well as supporting random types.

 

Pokemon RBY was supposed to have *Presumably.* the Pokemon from the second generation in it.

 

However, the game wasn't finished quick enough, the Pokemon were divided, and the empty slots that were supposed to be the second generation in the first were never removed. Thus, MissingNo. is merely a glitch that was meant to be a Pokemon.

 

As the hacker CoolBoyMan, since I'm pretty sure, in RijonAdventures, he sprited a Chickorita (Edited to have two colours, of course.) over one of the MissingNo.'s, resulting in a functional Pokemon.

 

 

 

It's a normal Programming Run and error, as I said.

MissingNo- The Name/Background

 

MissingNo. Up top' date=' it says it is number 152 in the Kanto Dex. :shock: Yeah, I am right. MissingNo was a real Pokemon, known before as Missing. The story behind Missing was, after you beat the Elite Four, Missing was created in your hometown and caused havoc everywhere. When you returned and spoke to your mother, she would tell you what happened. Then, you would have to hunt down Missing and capture it. Missing had a few problems to it, though. It had a completly unique move that NO OTHER POKEMON knew. It also was way overpowered, possessing base stats higher than Arceus. This led to the annihlation of Missing. When the programers took Missing out of the game, they changed the name to MissingNo, so if anyone was able to hack it, they would not get the original name. One programer (or a few) forgot to take it out of the game, leading to the Pokemon, MissingNo.

Ok...

Missing? that's just not original...

 

MissingNo. Glitch first apeared in Pokemon R/B, my answer is obvious.

 

They only added a "No.", that's just... Stupid

First of all, this is my PERSONAL RESEARCH. I may be right or wrong. No one knows except Nintendo. I cannot stress that enough. And adding a No. really helps. If someone hacked a Pokemon (lets say Arceus was a glitch, never was a Pokemon meant to be released), changing the name is very helpful. Its like... catching an Arceus would be AWESOME! But catching an Barceus would be horrible.

[Jericho]

If only they actually had a press conference in like 2010 (enough time for me to get Platinum) that they would let people download MissingNo in its ORIGINAL FORM! That would be 'omg great'!

 

 

EDIT: Whoever said it was probably Ho-Oh was more than likely right. Have you ever seen the first episode of Pokemon? Ash sees Ho-Oh flying above him, yet it is the only pokemon not available in R/B/Y.

[Dark]

Are you saying that Ho-Oh is MissingNo? They wanted Ho-Oh in the game but instead MissingNo was put in. That might be the case, maybe Ho-Oh was meant to be #152? Who knows?

[Jericho]

That is exactly what I'm saying. Ho-Oh was supposed to be 152, but something must have gone wrong with the programming, which created MissingNo.. That is the only explanation I've seen so far that explains why Ho-Oh is seen in the Kanto series of the show and why its not in the game, but a mysterious unknown pokemon called MissingNo. is.

[Yasu]

Imposible! R/B/Y Already have Moltres, also they can't realease a game with a glitched legendary

wtf are you going on about moltres? and they could, if they were on a rush. Like they were in the middle of programming Ho-Oh (which would explain MissingNo having Sky Attack as a move as well as being bird=flying type) but they had to shut down production quickly so they could prevent a delay of the game to rabid fans.

[Yasu]

Admit it MissingNo. is just a Glitch an error

there are 256 Hex codes for pokemon, 151 are filled with pokemons, right?

How about the other 105, MissingNo. Glitch Trainers, Errors

That doesn't disprove my theory of a rushed program. And I still don't know what you were going on about Moltres for.

[Dark]

Before we shoot down the idea of Moltres, were Zapdos and Atricuno involved? If so, then shoot down the idea of Moltres. Now that I have done more reseach, when you level MissingNo, it evolves into a Kangiskhan. Also, it will not show up as a PKMN when you beat the Elite Four. But, don't shoot down the idea of MissingNo being a legendary.

thats M!!! NOT MISSINGNO

 

get it right then post a thread

[+Jono]

MissingNo and/or 'M =/= Legendary. Do I have to spell it out? It was a glitch that appeared with a stuff up in the games HEX coding. As a result it was added to the game. Game Freak had no idea, I mean you'd have a job finding it wouldn't you?

[Seta]

You sir' date=' win Pokemon.

[/quote']

Yes, he does. I never knowed that much of it :shock:

[Dark]

Look, it is not me problem whether you believe me or not. It is not my problem that you think some HEX thing was involved, or that MissingNo was Ho-Oh. MY PERSONAL RESEACH states all the info. in the start of the thread is in fact true. You are given all right to prove me wrong, but I don't wanna hear no B.S. from a website. I want tested proof, since half of my info. is tested proof.

Talking of tested proof... Where did you got the bolded info? I tough the Programers Hacked the event...

[Dark]

When the Programars created MissingNo, they made it so that once you beat the Elite Four... well, you know. Once they found out that Missing was too powerful, they CHANGED THE NAME, DELETED MISSING, AND DELETED THE EVENT. And try Google, it is really powerful.

-_-''

 

PS- If you think that my research was wrong, you try finding the info. I will bet you can't.

So basically it was going to be like what they did in R/S/E? When you beat the elite 4 it shows up in your home town, but you don't have to chase it?

[Dark]

No, it is just like Latios and Latias. You gotta chase it. Other than the over-powered thing and the weird pixely bash, it is exactly like Latios and Latias. And Cresselia.

[Brushfire]

MissingNo can be found in every Pokemon ROM.

I doubt it was supposed to be a legendary, considering it's only there to help with confiuration data and fill in blank spaces.

I use the MissingNo spaces to be D/P Pokemon / Fakemon into my hacks.

[Dark]

Mehh... everyone is saying it is not a legendary. And now people are saying it was a programming error. WHY DID THEY PUT IT IN AGAIN? ERRORS? WHAT WAS IT SUPPOSED TO BE. And I reveiwed over the Ho-Oh thing. They wanted to put Ho-Oh in the same region as Lugia. So that idea is *BOOM* shot down.

^It has the hex info that should make you shut the hell up.

 

=).

 

It's fallacy to assume that MissingNo. was once meant to be an event pokemon.

 

MissingNo.= Missing number= unfilled pokemon data.

 

Freaking hell.

 

If you're getting this from google, it's apparent that you've got a seemingly acute talent for picking sites run by 10-year olds.

[Dark]

Last time I want to say this. Last time. Before you go shooting off your mouth about this "Cool MissingNo. website" please remember that your website could also be made by a 10-year old. Your website could be wrong or be a joke. Your website could be worse than you THINK my info is.
