Due to the way the HP IV is determined, a shiny Pokémon's HP IV can only be 0 (if the Attack IV is even) or 8 (if the Attack IV is odd).

====Unown's Letter====
====Unown's letter====
{{p|Unown}}'s letter in Generation II is taken from the combination of the center two bits of the Attack, Defense, Speed and Special IV {{wp|nibble}}s. This combination is then divided by ten, and the result is [[wp:Floor_function|rounded down (''floor[]'')]] to only include the integer part of the number. This integer will range from 0-25, corresponding to a letter in the Latin alphabet, which will be the Unown's letter (where 0=A, 1=B, 2=C, ..., 23=X, 24=Y, 25=Z, and not including '!' or '?', which were introduced in Generation III).

If the Pokémon's species can have only one Ability in Generation III, the Ability bit is forced to 0 by the game, as being 1 in this instance would cause the Pokémon in question to have "No ability" listed as their ability. This number is rechecked against the [[personality value]] upon evolution in Generation IV, allowing for a {{p|Zigzagoon}} with {{a|Pickup}} to retain the Ability if it is sent through [[Pal Park]] regardless of its personality value, but changing its Ability to {{a|Gluttony}} upon evolution into {{p|Linoone}} if the personality value does not match what the Ability should be.
