====Unown's Letter====
====Unown's Letter====
{{p|Unown}}'s letter in Generation II is taken from the combination of the centre 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).

In Generation II, due to this method of calculating Unown's letter and the way that {{shiny}} Pokémon are determined, a shiny Unown can only exist in the shape of the letter I or V.
