'M (00): Difference between revisions

[[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] is a dual-type {{2t|Bird|Normal}} [[glitch Pokémon]].  

[[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] is often called the "sister" glitch counterpart to [[Missingno.]] due to having the same sprite and Pokédex number, and is found exclusively in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}. If [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] is traded to {{game|Yellow}}, it will become a [[3TrainerPoké $]].

Although similar to [[Missingno.]] at first glance, the two are separate glitch Pokémon with many differences as they have different index numbers; for example, [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] can evolve into {{p|Kangaskhan}} while Missingno. cannot. The similarities that they have are a result of coincidentally sharing a Pokédex number.

[[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s cry appears to be a slightly different version of {{p|Zapdos}}'s cry.

It is most commonly known as 'M, since these are the only typographical characters in its name—its real name is impossible to produce with text, and some tiles in its name are not constant. It is also called 'M Block due to either the glitchy blocks next to its name or the Pokémon's boxy shape.  

The encounter flag for [[Missingno.]] and [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] is the highest bit of the 6th item quantity; therefore, encountering Missingno. or [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] causes the player to get 128 more of the 6th item of their Bag if they have less than 128 of that item (this is known as the [[item duplication glitch]]). Also, if the player has [[Hall of Fame]] data, encountering [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] corrupts it.

[[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] and [[Missingno.]] can be uploaded to {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, and (if the game doesn't freeze) will look like Substitute dolls (small {{p|Rhydon}}-like figures that appear when a Pokémon uses {{m|Substitute}}). [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s graphic is blue and Missingno.'s is purple. When viewed in the Pokémon Center, all of [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s stats will be question marks (including the Pokédex species ID number, even though the Game Boy versions identify [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] and Missingno. as #000). However, [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] will not be allowed to battle, nor will it function correctly in the Gallery (in which players can take pictures of Pokémon). Photos of it will not develop if taken.  

If [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] or any other glitch Pokémon is selected in the "see list", the game will freeze, playing the music without the bass track in the background. If a player tries to view [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s stats, the game will also freeze on occasion.<ref>[http://www.console-cheats.com/nintendo64/PokemonStadium.shtml Pokémon Stadium Cheats] ''Console Cheats'' URL Accessed July 23, 2006</ref>  

[[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] cannot be traded to {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} because it supposedly does not exist in the second generation. In the trade center, [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] appears as a {{p|Slowpoke}} or {{p|Tyrogue}}. When the players try to trade [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]], a message appears stating "Your friend's ([[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s name) appears to be abnormal." and the trade is canceled automatically. Less often, [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] can be traded, in which case it turns into the Pokémon it was displayed as.<ref>[http://pages.prodigy.net/maryjorhodes/codespok.htm Code Pok] ''Prodigy.net'' URL Accessed July 23, 2006</ref> [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] can, however be traded to Gold and Silver after it is evolved into a Kangaskhan, Clefairy, or Clefable, even if it has moves that these Pokémon would not normally have (such as Water Gun that [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] originally has, or Fly that can be taught). For example, [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] could be taught Fly then evolved into a Kangaskhan, which could then be transferred to Gold and Silver.

Similar problems present themselves when attempting to transfer [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] or [[Missingno.]] to Pokémon Stadium 2. If successfully transferred, [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] and Missingno. will become a {{p|Ditto}}.<ref>[http://www.funtrivia.com/en/VideoGames/Pokemon-RedBlueYellow*-13505.html Pokémon Red, Blue and Yellow] ''Fun Trivia'' URL Accessed July 23, 2006</ref>

* [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s height is 23'0<nowiki>''</nowiki>. If it were compared to all other regular Pokémon in terms of height, it would be the [[List of Pokémon by height|4th tallest Pokémon]], tied with {{p|Rayquaza}}. [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] is more than twice Missingno.'s height.

* [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s weight is 880.6 lbs. If it were compared to all other regular Pokémon in terms of weight, it would be the [[List of Pokémon by weight|10th heaviest Pokémon]]. [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s weight is only about 25% of Missingno.'s.  

* [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]]'s sprite, movepool, and stats are identical to [[Missingno.]]'s, but with two move differences: Missingno. cannot learn {{m|Pound}}, and [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] is incompatible with {{TM|50|Substitute}}.

* If a level 0 [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] is captured and sent to the [[PC]], the game will freeze if the player tries to withdraw it. This is probably the cause of the inaccurate rumors of [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] and other [[glitch Pokémon]] being horribly dangerous to the saved game file if captured. However, if the invisible Ditto was caught and sent to the PC, it will be able to be withdrawn. Once the Ditto is in the party, it will automatically become level 1.

* Before [[File:RBGlitchName00.png|link=]] is encountered, the black screen before the battle initiates is noticeably longer. This also happens with Missingno. because invalid [[Hall of Fame]] data is saved in the background, though notably not with other glitch Pokémon because they don't actually save this data. The overwritten save data is separate from where main game map/event data is saved, so a 'saved' message is only visible in [[Pokémon Stadium]]'s [[GB Tower]].
