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. In addition, the [[glitch Pokémon]] [[Missingno.]] permeates the list; all other glitch Pokémon are either located at 00 or after {{p|Victreebel}}. Since {{p|Rhydon}} is index number 001, many glitch Pokémon will become it upon capture, due to the [[Rhydon glitch]].
