'''?''' is a [[glitch Pokémon]] which is actually 25 different species, each exactly the same as the other. They are blank filler data in between {{p|Celebi}} and {{p|Treecko}}, [[List of Pokémon by index number (Generation III)|index numbers]] 252-276. They also have the same exact physical base stats as another Pokémon, {{p|Deoxys}}.

The cry of this "Pokémon" is that of {{p|Unown}}. Its only attack is {{m|Tackle}} and it is incapable of learning any others. It has no [[Ability]] ([[------- (Ability)|-------]]) and it says "No special ability" in the Pokédex screen.

Its Pokédex entry is nothing more than glitches, including many characters that would not be encountered through the normal course of play. This is because the Pokédex data is invalid and points to garbage which is then represented as characters. This can also cause emulators to crash. Its footprint is a generic paw-print with a question mark inside.

?'s sprite was coded originally to represent an unseen Pokémon in the Pokédex, in [[beta]] versions of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Ruby and Sapphire]], however, developers later changed the sprite to that of [[Ten Question Marks|??????????]], leaving ? in the data as a placeholder.
