MissingNo has no PokeDex number since it was just a glitch. It wasn't something that was intended to be in the game. There is no connection between it and Victini. o.o Sorry if I sound rude/harsh. =/
It's my job to help the next generation, and set a good example for them. And for that I'll gladly lay down my life.
It was a glitch. How? The only way to obtain it was through a number of steps which actually caused the game's memory storage device to erase. The info for what pokemon was encountered was altered the instant you replied,"No" to the fun old man.
Saying "no" gave the wild encounter memory unit for the game boy color cartridge a new location which was not intended in the game. This caused an error when you ran into a pokemon while surfing half on and half off Cinnabar island.
MissingNo was intended to be a ghost type pokemon. If you look it up, it was suppose to look something like Ghastly. But, since it was a glitch, it never happened that way. :/
Victini is #000 in the Unova Regional Pokedex. It is also #494 in the National Pokedex.
It is unrelated to Missingno. Missingno. is a placeholder for 39 Pokemon that were going to be put in the game originally (just like Teru-sama in Gen II for missing items), can only be obtained through a glitch, and is not an official Pokemon. It is not even hexadecimal #000, that's actually 'M.
Bowser, I read your theories, and they are completely stupid. Do your research first; that's what I did. Oh, and 'Bird' (Missingno. and 'M's type, along with 'Normal') is a glitch type, not the 'Flying' type.
I noticed that I was blocked from commenting on your blogs, as if you don't want me to correct you.
And now you ask the admins to lock this after you call me an ass and a troll? Real mature... I asked for it to be locked because I knew this was to happen.
I don't troll you specifically, I correct those who are wrong. Look at what happened to the featured blog "Would you condone?". They were wrong, so I corrected them, in the same style that I correct you, by backing up my words with fact and, yes, being an ass...
You obviously haven't seen a good Shuckle trainer. Power Split cripples any monster that doesn't have a boosting move, and under Trick Room, Shuckle outspeeds all non-priority Pokemon, except Munchlax, who it ties with as both have base 5 speed. A better comparison would have been fighting a Serperior, yes, but I saw a Snivy first.
I understand the idea behind the discussion, and in my original post I explained what the facts behind the original idea were. The thing that I was annoyed by in my previous post was his lack of maturity, so I explained my methods of explanation.
You're thinking Power Trick. Power Split is like Pain Split with Attack and Sp. Attack. So, you get your opponent's excellent attack, they get your terrible attack, you're still faster (TR only, without it you are slower than Snorlax), and you still have ridiculous defenses! Proceed to STAB Rock Slide. :D
Also, since Shuckle is Rock-type, it is immune to and gains Sp. Defense in a sandstorm, which Tyranitar or Hippowdon can bring out.
Of course, since Sturdy will let you survive a single hit, you can use Shuckle as a revenge killer. When one of your monsters faints, you get a free switch. Bring in Shuckle, and use Power TRICK. You will survive the turn, and your held Custap Berry will let you go first, so you can hit the target with your full 614 Attack (Double this if you used a slow, defensive Baton Passer to pass an Acid Armor/Barrier/Iron Defense)
And, of course, there is the traditional Toxic/Sandstorm(or Rest, but you no longer hit Gengar)/Encore/Wrap/@Leftovers wall setup, hopefully supported by a Wish/Heal Bell passer.
No, no it isn't. You can blame its low (20) HP and lack of decent recovery for that (all it has is Rest, Leftovers, and Baton-passed Aqua Ring/Ingrain)
I hope it gets Pain Split in Gen VI. With its low HP and high Defense, it would be more evil than Dusknoir/Dusclops@Evoilte.
Anyway, we're going off topic. Is Victini and MissingNO. related? Not really. Even if MissingNO. was an actual Pokemon, it's type is completely unrelated, neither evolve, and the movesets are completely different. However, they are related in the same way that Bulbasaur and Snivy are related. They are the same number in their respective Pokedex, and they are both extremely difficult to obtain. (Victini: Event/Action Replay; MissingNO.: Glitch/Game Shark) I honestly think that Game Freak did this numbering just to mess with us and make us make Bulletin Boards talking about it. You know, every BB about Pokemon is free advertisement for Game Freak. ;D
missingno is a glitch due to gamefreak rushing the release of Pokemon blue and red. Missingno was supposed to be Ho-oh, but there wasnt enough time to finish it.
Good thing Shuckle is banned along side Wabbuffet.
So many theories about MissingNo... Nintendo officially announced that was an error occurring which was not intentional. It is not a pokemon, and was never meant to be one.
Rather than mindlessly posting your own theories and ideas you all claim are right without ANY evidence or anything. I believe it's best to go with Nintendo's explanation for it. That way you all don't make yourselves appear extremely ignorant.
(Directed at those of you who post your own little ideas of what it is)
