Due to how [[Size_and_weight_variation#Pokémon GO|size variation]] functions in [[Pokémon GO]], there is a 1 in 250 chance each to potentially obtain an XXS or XXL Pokémon. When such a Pokémon is transferred to {{g|HOME}} and then into {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, this translates to both height and weight scalar values being set to 0 or 255 respectively for it, i.e. the Pokémon will have the minimum or maximum height and weight possible for that species (or form) in-game. Although 0 and 255 may not be precisely needed to result in the minimum and maximum measurements for a Pokémon, for both height and weight scalar values to be either 0 or 255 natively in Legends: Arceus, the chance is less than 1 in 250 million each.
In {{g|GO}}, there is a 1 in 250 chance each for an XXS or XXL Pokémon to be generated as part of its [[Size_and_weight_variation#Pokémon GO|size variation]] mechanic. When such a Pokémon is obtained and transferred to {{g|HOME}} and then into {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, both its height and weight scalar values are set to 0 or 255 depending on whether it was XXS-sized or XXL-sized respectively, meaning it will have the minimum or maximum height and weight possible for that species (or form) in-game. Due to a lack of precision, scalar values of 0 and 255 may not be needed to actually result in the minimum and maximum measurements, but assuming they are, both height and weight scalar values being generated as 0 or 255 for a Pokémon natively in Legends: Arceus each has less than a 1 in 250 million chance to occur.
