'''?????''' are [[glitch Pokémon]] which appear in [[Generation II]] games. The game resorts to the error handler "?????" to name the non-existent {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with index numbers 000, 252, 254 and 255 if they were to appear (not including 253, since index number 253 is used for [[glitch egg|eggs]]). | '''?????''' are [[glitch Pokémon]] which appear in [[Generation II]] games.

Although all of the variants of ????? appear identical (as just a nonsensical assortment of various graphics from other parts of the game), they each use a different palette. For example, #252 appears gold and #000 appears blue. | Although all of the variants of ????? appear identical (as just a nonsensical assortment of various graphics from other parts of the game), they each use a different palette.

All variations of ????? lack their own battle sprites besides the one seen by the Trainer battling it. When a Trainer uses any variation of ?????, it will borrow the last sprite used in the battle area. This can be the original Trainer that appears before the battle starts, or another Pokémon that has been switched out. Any of these sprites will have the color palette that the particular form of ????? uses. | All variations of ????? lack their own battle sprites besides the one seen by the Trainer battling it.

Since such data is undefined, the basic tileset source of the sprite of any variation of ????? depends on the last interface loaded into the game's RAM, this is usually the previous tileset basis of the main map interface, but if the player opens the bag then closes it the game will attempt to use the menu as a source for the sprite of ?????. | Since such data is undefined, the basic tileset source of the sprite of any variation of ????? depends on the last interface loaded into the game's RAM, this is usually the previous tileset basis of the main map interface, but if the player opens the bag then closes it the game will attempt to use the menu as a source for the sprite of ?????. | ||
