-In each [[Pokémon games|Pokémon game]] of [[Generation I]], all {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} have an unseen [[index number]] used to identify them in the game's [[wp:Read-only memory|ROM]]. Unlike later [[generation]]s, the Pokémon are far from being in order by their [[National Pokédex]] [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|numbers]], and most [[evolution]] [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|families]] are ''extremely'' fragmented. Just as well, [[Glitch|glitch Pokémon]], like [[Missingno.]], permeate the list, instead of being located in one solid block as they are in later games. A reason why many of the glitch Pokémon can be seen [[Evolution|evolving]] into normal Pokémon is the fact that, unlike normal Pokémon, who have index pointers for their evolutionary lines, there is often no data, and the glitch Pokémon simply evolve into the first data they encounter. Since {{p|Rhydon}} is index number 001, many glitch Pokémon will become it upon capture.

-When connected to a [[Generation II]] game, many of the glitch Pokémon will appear to the other side to be a {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}. They are then tradable, and will retain the movesets they had in Generation I.
