''-'' is a [[glitch Pokémon]] in [[Generation III]] which hatches from a {{gp|?}}. Its index number is that of a regular {{pkmn|Egg}}, making it the Generation III equivalent of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}'s [[glitch Egg]]. As such, its sprite looks like that of an {{pkmn|Egg}}, and it can also be found by "catching" the Pokémon with the [[List of Pokémon by index number in Generation III|index number]] 412 (Egg). Attempting to encounter - in the wild in Ruby and Sapphire will result in a freeze before the battle begins. Though it is possible to catch it in {{game|Emerald}}, the game may reset itself sometime after the conclusion of the battle.

It has a glitch-name ability with an unknown effect, and its two [[type]]s are the invalid types with indexes 22 and 20, that due to the way graphics are stored are displayed as the Contest-only move types Tough and Cute respectively. -'s summary can only be viewed in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, but when - is viewed in Ruby and Sapphire, the game will stay on a black screen for a while before its summary is displayed. If the player attempts to view it in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} the game hangs with a magenta screen. No action can be performed and the game will need to be turned off and back on.

The games treat it both like an Egg and a Pokémon. If entered in a {{pkmn|battle}} as the first Pokémon in the [[party]], the second Pokémon will be sent out instead. However, it is possible to shift - into battle. Furthermore, if taken to the [[Name Rater]] to be nicknamed, the Name Rater states that he cannot nickname an Egg. If hatched in FireRed or LeafGreen, however, it can be given a nickname when it hatches.

- cannot be migrated to the [[Generation IV]] games, as the game will display the message "An Egg cannot migrate!"
