===Fossil and ghost MissingNo.===
===Fossil and ghost MissingNo.===
The [[Fossil]] and ghost MissingNo. (otherwise known as 'special MissingNo.') are three unique forms of MissingNo. that share their sprites with the {{p|Kabutops}} Fossil and {{p|Aerodactyl}} Fossil from the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], as well as the [[Ghost (literal)|ghosts from the Pokémon Tower]]. This is because the game actually uses their index numbers to get their front sprites. These Pokémon have no constant [[base stats]], [[List of Pokémon by experience type|experience types]] or starting [[move]]s; instead they take this data from the last Pokémon in the party other than another special MissingNo. If an enemy {{pkmn|Trainer}} sends out a special MissingNo. the aforementioned data is taken from the previous Pokémon they sent out (the user's Pokémon in battle does not count here).

The Fossil and ghost MissingNo. exist in Yellow and have the same sprites as in {{2v2|Red|Blue}}. They also work the same way. Since the sprites are valid, these MissingNo. can be encountered instead of Yellow's normal MissingNo. and will never freeze the game on the opponent's side.

MissingNo.'s Ghost form uses the sprite of the {{OBP|Ghost|literal|ghost}} found in [[Pokémon Tower]] if the player does not have the [[Silph Scope]]. It is index number 184 (hex:B8)

In the Japanese versions, this form is not actually a MissingNo. In these versions, rather than being named 'けつばん' (ketsuban) it is named "Ghost" (Japanese: ゴースト). This is unused, because all Pokémon Tower ghosts including the deceased {{p|Marowak}} use the hiragana ゆうれい ('[[wikipedia:Yūrei|yuurei]]') instead, which can mean the same thing but may specifically refer to the Japanese interpretation of ghosts in folklore.

In the trade center, MissingNo., due to its [[index number]], appears as many different [[Generation II]] Pokémon from the perspective of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. (The full list of the Generation II Pokémon MissingNo. can appear as is documented on the [[List of Pokémon by index number (Generation I)]].) If the player tries to trade MissingNo., a message will appear stating "''Your <name> appears abnormal''." and the trade will automatically be cancelled. <!--Rarely, if a MissingNo. is successfully traded, it will become the Pokémon it was said to be, and act normally (though it will retain any and all moves it had as a MissingNo.). At this point, it only may be traded back into the Generation I game while the player is still in the Time Capsule (where it will again become a MissingNo.), as if the player leaves, the Generation II game will detect it as a {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} and not allow the player to enter the Time Capsule.-->

In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Virtual Console]] versions, if the player has MissingNo. in Box 1 when they attempts to transfer it to [[Pokémon Bank]] via [[Poké Transporter]], the following error message will appear. All Pokémon in Box 1 that are recognized as valid by Poké Transporter will be transported, but [[glitch Pokémon]] (such as MissingNo.) will not.

The name "MissingNo." is used for the invalid Pokémon with index numbers in between valid Pokémon and is a shortened form of "missing number", derived from its Japanese name, けつばん (Ketsuban).

Supporting this theory was the fact that of the 39 MissingNo., nine of them have unique cries that do not consist of all <tt><b>00</b></tt> values.<ref>[http://iimarck.us/i/missing-number/ Missing Number - IIMarck.us]</ref> These cries are located in a table in between real Pokémon cries, suggesting that they were not garbage data (unrelated data interpreted in the wrong way, as is the case with most of MissingNo.'s properties).

Fans noted that the number 151+39 comes to 190; a round number that very well could have been the initial number of Generation I Pokémon considered. This was eventually supported by [http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/there-were-190-pok%C3%A9mon.78267/ a thread] on [[Smogon]] where user Zog claimed that Pokémon designer [[Shigeki Morimoto]] confirmed that there were 190 Pokémon, and that 'the rest were saved for later'.


These theories were finally confirmed in 2020, with {{wp|2020-2021_Nintendo_data_leak|the Nintendo data leak of that year}}. Among the game material leaked was the source code for the [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Japanese version of Pokémon Blue]], which contained many internal development assets, such as map sources, moveset lists, cry data, and the back sprites for every Pokémon in the game in Generation I order, including previously-unseen sprites occupying the same index numbers populated by MissingNo. in the released games.<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Pok%C3%A9mon_Red_and_Blue/MissingNo.#MissingNo._List The Cutting Room Floor - Pokémon Red and Blue/Missingno.]</ref> Some of these sprites match the design and index number of Pokémon previously only shown on [[Satoshi Tajiri]]'s [[Satoshi Tajiri: The Man Who Created Pokémon|biographical manga]], while most of the others correspond to Pokémon that had never been seen before.

Nintendo's statement is incorrect on the method for fixing graphical issues; releasing MissingNo. does not fix the graphics and the player certainly does not need to erase their game to perform any fixes. The correct way to fix the graphics is to simply view the Pokédex data or stat page of any non-glitch Pokémon (or any [[Glitch Pokémon family|hybrid glitch Pokémon]]). The statement may have been deliberately worded to discourage players from performing the [[Item duplication glitch]].

The title of the statement also refers to MissingNo. as "Pokémon 000" in reference to its Pokédex number.
