Talk:??? (type)

Wait, how can ??? type have statistical averages? -OmegaPlatinum

That... is a very good question. TTEchidna 04:17, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

It was added a while ago, obtained through hacking the game (also check the diffs following). Don't think that should count, myself. --DarkfireTaimatsu 05:10, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Nor do I, so I baleeted it. Arceus alone should not be what something's based on. TTEchidna 07:11, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

RBY?

Wait a moment, where is ??? featured in RBY? As far as I can remember, some glitches had ???, but it says "Non-glitch" element, so I assume in the programming.. but still, it slightly weirds me out that it says "Generation I". TinaTheKirlia 16:12, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Because it was a glitch in Gen I, but not in Gen II onwards, I'm guessing.--Nebula 17:09, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Arceus and Roost

It's been suggested that when a Sky Plate-holding Arceus uses the move Roost, it will turn into the ???-type Arceus. However, as the only way for Arceus to GET Roost is through hacking, I have not been able to test these claims yet. However, if anyone here manages to play out this scenario by hacking an Arceus that has the move, please edit the article accordingly should the theory be proven correct. --M.

Well, then the same could happen to a Smeargle that Sketched Skill Swap and Roost, then swapped abilities with Kecleon. TTEchidnaFire echy 06:23, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

THAT I could probably try out . . . but I don't think I have any Smeargle spare. I'll have to bring a friend into this . . . thanks for the suggestion! --M. Burusu 04:00, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

How much does anyone wanna bet...

That ???-type Arceus is what Arceus becomes in the reverse world? TTEchidna 01:52, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but unless we can get such a place in the games, the most I can wager is 2¢. --Shiningpikablu252 01:54, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I think there's going to be an event sometime after the Arceus event to get a special plate for the ???-type form. After all, Nintendo has demonstrated in the past that they can edit the coding of the Pokémon games (Berry Glitch Fix). A similar coding update could be used for the Apricorn Poké Balls from GSDS.
