Some glitch Pokémon have characteristics derived from the game's default error handling capabilities for an invalid Pokémon, such as "[[Missingno.]]" or "{{?|10}}". Another example of this is the learn-set data for a [[Generation IV]] {{pkmn|Egg}}, where it learns {{m|Splash}} as a starting move, likely to prevent the game from [[Game freeze|crashing]] due to an [[list of glitch moves|invalid move]] being used.

In [[Generation I]], some glitch Pokémon may freeze the game if sent out on the opponent's side, depending on their Pokédex number and the version used, and glitch Pokémon with index numbers greater than 199 will always bring up equivalent [[glitch Trainer]]s if encountered directly in the wild. These glitch Pokémon cannot be obtained via a wild battle, and must be obtained using a different glitch to the {{DL|Mew glitch|Ditto glitch}} or [[old man glitch]], such as [[evolution]] from another glitch Pokémon, trading an equivalent [[index number]] glitch Pokémon to another version, or by executing the [[Johto guard glitch]].

Additionally, catching certain obtainable glitch Pokémon in Generation I may cause endless [[Pokédex]] data to appear. To avoid this, the player must have activated a specific flag, if this is a [[Glitch Pokémon family|hybrid glitch Pokémon]], the flag is activated by either seeing a specific Pokémon or owning a specific Pokémon. Specific glitches (like the {{m|Super Glitch}} move or the [[ZZAZZ glitch]]) may cause the saved file to be corrupted or erased.
