:Thanks for bringing this up. I was going to add those items to the list, but I was busy on [[Starfy Wiki]] and totally forgot to do so. I'm familiar with some of their specifics. If you change the items in any [[PokéMart]], you can actually buy individual [[Coin#Trivia|Coin]]s for 10 Pokédollars per coin. The trivia section on Coin's page had some speculation on it, so I've since removed it. The second ????? has an index number of 44 (0x2C). Unlike the "surfboard" (0x07) this item does not appear to have a use at all, and gives Professor Oak's unusable message when you try to use it. I believe that 0x07 is actually programmed to act the way it does, and I've found it interesting that its index number is [[List of items by index number (Generation I)|directly after]] that of the Bicycle, but it could just be a coincidence.

:There is [[List of items by index number (Generation I)|another item]] that is a duplicate of PP UP, occupying index number 50 (0x32). The interesting thing about it is that it has a price of 9800 Pokédollars, which may suggest that the developers put it there in case you were going to buy PP Ups at one point. The real PP Up (0x4F) does not have a buy price (forcing it in a Poké Mart allows you to buy it for 0 Pokédollars). It does follow Nugget (0x31), but Nugget's buy price is 10,000 Pokédollars. Although it shares PP Up (0x4F)'s name, it appears to be unusable and gives Oak's unusable message when you attempt to use it. The item is similar to two items in [[Generation II]], but I'm not convinced they're related. They are "TM04" (dec:195, 0xC3) and "TM28" (dec: 220, 0xDC) and directly follow the index numbers of the real items, but they do not have valid "buy" prices.

:The Safari Ball should probably be added to this list. I know that that it has a description on {{g|Stadium (Japanese)}} (it uses EUC-JP encoding), in addition to all games from [[Generation II]] and onwards. Additionally, IIRC the Japanese names of the Badges are the "unused names" (offset 4A92). (I added details about those unused names on the list of items by index number page under another section) and {{user|SnorlaxMonster}} helped me with what one of the names translated to. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 17:22, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
