However, 'M can't be transported into a version where gender is a factor. Note: The reason so many of the stats above are "unknown" is because Missingno. is a technical error "Pokmon", therefore there are no official statistics to go by. 'M's battle statistics constantly vary. | 'M (also known as "M Block") is a glitch Pokmon, much like Missingno., which is found in the Pokmon Red and Blue Game Boy games and likely owes its existence to a programming oversight. Encountering 'M has been known to interfere with the save game data in various ways, such as adversely affecting the Hall of Fame saved data. 'M's presence also allows what is known as the "Rare Candy Cheat", the games' infamous item duplication bug. It is commonly used to duplicate valuable and hard to obtains items, such the Rare Candy item. However, the duplication bug can affect any item in the game, not just Rare Candies. 'M looks just like Missingno., is the same type (dual Bird and Normal), has the same ID number (000), has the same things happen to it (like not appearing in the Pokedex when caught) and like Missingno. is only found in the wild in the Red and Blue versions while doing the "Rare Candy Trick." Yet it is not the same Pokmon. For example, 'M will evolve into Kangaskhan, which is something Missingno. cannot do (see picture). After a player captures an 'M, there will be an invisible Ditto still battling the player. This does not happen when Missingno. is caught. 'M can mess up the player's Hall of Fame and duplicate the player's sixth item like Missingno., but catching it can result in freezing, saved game deletion, and/or permanent inaccessibility to Pokmon Stadium for the particular saved game. 'M can be encountered in the same way Missingno. can. The most common way to encounter 'M in the Red and Blue versions of Pokmon is to do the following: - Go to the northern part of Viridian City, and watch the Old Man's demonstration on how to catch a Pokmon. (see picture)
- Fly to Cinnabar Island.
- Surf up and down along the east coast of the island until 'M appears. (Depending on the player's name, 'M may not show up.)
There have been many rumors about 'M being able to evolve into Mew, but these are not true. 'M will evolve into Kangaskhan when a Rare Candy is used on it or when it gains experience points. 'M is also commonly called 'M block because its name is comprised two sets of glitchy boxes with "'M" in the middle. It is also sometimes but rarely referred to as G.M.G. which probably stands for "Glitch 'M Glitch". 'M is, however, a true glitch. There are 256 slots for Pokmon to be assigned to. These are labelled in hexadecimal from 00 to FF. 'M occurs in slot 00, a slot which was never meant to be used but which does not for whatever reason trigger Missingno. Instead 'M, a true glitch, appears. Why Missingno. is not triggered is unknown. If an 'M is taught the move Fly and then is evolved into a Kangaskhan, the Kangaskhan will be able to use Fly as an attack, which would not normally be possible. When the Kangaskhan that evolved from 'M uses Fly in Pokmon Stadium, it will look like that Kangaskhan is standing on air. 'M can be traded into the Yellow version from the Red and Blue versions, but instead becomes "3trainerPoke". However, if a player attempts to trade an 'M into the Gold or Silver versions, 'M could appear as many things from the Gold or Silver perspective, and a message will appear that says, "Your friend's appears to be abnormal." The trade will automatically cancel. 'M has always been overshadowed by its look-alike glitch Missingno. because the term "Missingno." refers not only to the Missingno. Pokmon but also to all glitches related to Missingno., which includes 'M. See also
