A '''bad egg''' (Japanese: '''ダメタマゴ''' '' | A '''bad egg''' (Japanese: '''ダメタマゴ''' ''no-good egg'') is a glitch present in the [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]] Pokémon games that results from a corruption of Pokémon data so that the {{wp|checksum}} does not match up with the data's calculations. | ||
Bad eggs are not really [[Pokémon egg]]s, and may possibly never have been, but instead the default message returned by the game if the checksum is off (which happens only if data is altered badly).
