 * There are 39 [[Missingno.]] with identifiers in between real Pokémon, which would add up to 190 Pokémon.
-** Interestingly, recent words from [[Shigeki Morimoto]] state that there were once 190 Pokémon planned for development in Pokémon Red and Green.<ref>[http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2958170#post2958170 Smogon Forums]</ref>

Many of its characteristics are either a translated 0 value (e.g. default {{p|Nidoran♂}} cry with pitch 0), or blank data rolled over to the next logical values (e.g. base stats denoting the rosters of several {{tc|Burglar}}s).
-*** This may or may not be a coincidence because the error handler <sc>MISSINGNO.</sc> is used for blank, or formatted Pokémon data. Many of its characteristics are either a translated 0 value (e.g. default {{p|Nidoran♂}} cry with pitch 0), or blank data rolled over to the next logical values (e.g. base stats denoting the rosters of several {{tc|burglar}}s.)
+* The reason for the vast amount of glitch Pokémon in Generation I is because only 151 values correspond to valid Pokémon; the final valid [[List of Pokémon by index number (Generation I)|index number]] is {{p|Victreebel}} (0×BE). The species identifier is a single 8-bit (256 values) byte, meaning that there are an additional 105 values including 0 for glitch Pokémon, or 66 values excluding the 39 Missingno. which are located in between the index numbers of valid Pokémon.
