How was MissingNo discovered?

MissingNo. (Missing Number) was likely discovered by curious players experimenting with game mechanics, particularly combining the "Old Man glitch" (seeing a trainer demo) with surfing the east coast of Cinnabar Island, revealing how the game loaded Pokémon data, leading to its appearance and the duplication of the sixth item in your bag. Players noticed strange Pokémon appearing after certain actions, like trading or using the Old Man's demo, realizing the game used player name data for encounters, which, when triggered on Cinnabar's coast, accessed unused memory, showing glitch Pokémon and causing item duplication.

Does catching MissingNo ruin your game?

Catching Missingno. in the original Pokémon Red and Blue doesn't usually "ruin" your game permanently but causes significant glitches, primarily duplicating items in your sixth bag slot and scrambling some graphics, but it can permanently corrupt your Hall of Fame data. While often harmless otherwise and even useful for item duplication, there's a small risk of more severe data corruption, so it's generally advised to avoid it if you're worried about your save file.

Could you catch MissingNo?

Yes, you can catch MissingNo. in the original Pokémon Red and Blue games through a famous glitch, but it's risky as it can corrupt your Hall of Fame and potentially cause other minor graphic glitches, though usually not permanent game-breaking damage; catching it duplicates the 6th item in your bag, and you don't even need to catch it—just encountering it triggers the item duplication, making it a popular way to get infinite Rare Candies and Master Balls, but be careful not to use a Key Item in that slot.
