Wait, how can ??? type have statistical averages? -OmegaPlatinum
:That... is a very good question. '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 04:17, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
::It was [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Unknown_type&diff=150318&oldid=148555 added] a while ago, obtained through hacking the game (also check the diffs following). Don't think that should count, myself. --[[User:DarkfireTaimatsu|DarkfireTaimatsu]] 05:10, 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". [[User:TinaTheKirlia|TinaTheKirlia]] 16:12, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
:Because it was a glitch in Gen I, but not in Gen II onwards, I'm guessing.--[[User:Nebula|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. --[[User:Mburusu|M. Burusu]] 08:02, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
:Well, then the same could happen to a Smeargle that Sketched Skill Swap and Roost, then swapped abilities with Kecleon. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]][[Image:Ani155MS.gif|Fire 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! --[[User:Mburusu|M. Burusu]] 04:00, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
:::I hate to bump ancient conversations, but I tested this last night.

Test 1: Smeargle Skill Swapped Kecleon. Switched in Nidorino and used Peck, turning Smeargle to a Flying type. Smeargle used Roost and Nidorino used Peck again, trying to activate color change; if Roost had changed Smeargle to ???, Color Change would activate. It did not.

Test 2: Smeargle Skill Swapped Kecleon. Nidorino Pecked it. Switched in Magcargo that held Lagging Tail. Smeargle Roosted and Magcargo used Earth Power. KO'd Smeargle.

Test 3: Same as Test 2, except Magcargo used Rock Smash. No effectiveness message.

My findings; if a pure Flying-type uses Roost, it DOES lose the Flying typing. However, it does not gain the Normal type temporarily, nor any type against which Fighting is Super/Not Very Effective, for that matter. More testing is needed to be absolutely sure, but I think that a pure Flying type that uses Roost does indeed become the ??? type. [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] wants YOU!

:UPDATE! Between Ground and Fighting, I was able to eliminate all types except Water, Fighting, and Dragon. I just conducted another test in which I used Meowth's Bite (eliminating Fighting), and Bibarel's Water Gun (eliminating Water and Dragon). Thusly, I can confirm that when Smeargle is a pure Flying type and uses Roost, its type becomes ???. I should maybe add this to the article? Also, since article names with question marks now work, I shall do with this what I did with the Generation III Glitch Pokémon and move this article to the correct title. If anyone disagrees, feel free to move it back. [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] wants YOU! [[User:Missingno.

== How much does anyone wanna bet... ==

That ???-type Arceus is what Arceus becomes in the reverse world? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 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 [[$1|2¢]]. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|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.

==Porygon?==

In Generation II, Porygon can learn Curse using the TM for it. I wonder if Porygon only knows Conversion and Curse, and it uses Conversion, if it has a chance of becoming the ???-type or if the game's coding ignores Curse when Conversion is used and doesn't do anything, either failing or executing with no effect since Porygon is already the type of Conversion. [[User:TorchicBlaziken|TorchicBlaziken]] 18:26, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
:If Porygon uses Conversion and if it only knows Curse, then Conversion fails. GameFreak kept that in mind. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 03:12, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

==??? type and Judgement ==

If Arceus would be holding a ??? plate and used Judgement, or if the Smeargle Roost/Skill swap would work, what would be the outcome? As this might be the only legit move capable of doing ??? type damage. [[User:Cake of Rage|Cake of Rage]] 20:53, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
:As there is no ??? plate, I don't think that's possible. I guess, with some fairly intensive hacking, we might be able to come up with something. --[[User:Martonimos|((Marton]] [[User talk:Martonimos|imos))]] 20:54, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
::I hacked a patch into the game with an item called "Test Plate". It boosts ??? type moves and would change arceus into ??? type. anyway i gave to arceus in three ways.

1) Gave to Arceus. Got into starly battle. Used judgement. It said "arceus used |-|-Z! and it acted as if it was a ground type move or something, because i repeated the test with bidoof and it said "Arceus used |-|-Z!" and it said "It's super effective!".

2) Gave to Arceus. Saved. Battled Cynthia. It said "Arceus used Judgement!" Then it said "It's super effective!" Lucario comes out. "arceus used judgement!" Then it was super effective again. all pokemon were One Hit KO'ed.

3) Gave to Arceus. Entered a Contest. Used judgement. It said arceus used J---?!!!" and the contest froze for a second. Then it came up with my 18th box on my PC, then I got into a wild battle with Linoone. Then it made me battle my rival (as at the battleground) then it took me back to the contest, where the game came up with the Contest Completed thingymobob. I had lost?! even though i was the only entrant. This is wierd! Then I saved and the game froze after I saved. Turned off and on and I was in Solacion town. My Test Plate was gone.

Hope that helped!!! [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK Leiks Lucario and The Celebi Glitch]] 17:45, 12 January 2010 (UTC)

== Um...no ==

Shadow moves in Pokémon XD aren't ??? type, they're ----- (or just "Shadow") type. Unlike ??? moves, they have Physical/Special differentiaiton, and they have type effectiveness (although not STAB). In fact, if you consider Shadow a type, then you have three-type Pokémon in XD. I think we need some kind of article on Shadown type, even if it doesn't include all that information. I'll make it tomorrow during lunch break if nobody esle wants to. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 03:05, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
:No, they're ???-type. There is no Shadow type. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 03:16, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
::I know that there's no 'Shadow' type, but the type of XD's Shadow Moves is NOT ???. In the space for a colored type bar, there's only a ------- (as opposed to Colloseum, which DID have the ??? bar). Moreover, obviously it is not ??? because it has type advantage and resistance applied. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 14:20, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Moves in XD are ???-type too, and they are split in physical or special category depending on if they do or not contact on the target. ???-type is only appliable to moves and not to Pokémon. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 20:31, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

In essence, that's what I said. I was correct: they have "-------" for a type. However, there's no way it can be ??? type becuse ??? type ''does not'' have super effective or not very effective. I called it 'Shadow' type in the same way [[-----]] is called DPBox. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 02:41, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

== eggs ==

How can an eg be a ??? type. It is is considered as such because you don't know what pokemon its going to be. The ???-type Arceus is different. {{unsigned|Hyurnat4}}
:Because ''technically'' the contents of the egg are unknown. So, the type that the Pokémon inside will be is also unknown...

== Statistical averages ==

OK, since we've established that Eggs are ???-type, and Arceus and Smeargle have the capability to become ???-type, might this warrant a statistical averages section? Perhaps, sans Arceus, since there is no legal way to get its type changed to ???? And I know I read somewhere that Eggs have base stats of 10 across the board, so that technically would count. Just gotta dig up where I found that... [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] wants YOU! [[User:Missingno.

...I'm pretty sure question marks in titles still don't agree with the inner workings of the wiki, considering I can still see pages being moved for that reason.

:They appear to be working fine on my end.

== Arceus and HG/SS ==

We know that in D/P/Pt, Arceus has a ???-type sprite. But does it have one in HG/SS? [[User:TorchicBlaziken|TorchicBlaziken]] ([[User_talk:TorchicBlaziken|talk]]•[[Special:Contributions/TorchicBlaziken|edits]]) 15:12, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
:yes. [[User:SpecialK|SpecialK Leiks Lucario and The Celebi Glitch]] 10:25, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

== Arceus testing ==

If Arceus's base type is hacked to be ??? instead of Normal, does it show the ???-type sprite? [[User:TorchicBlaziken|TorchicBlaziken]] ([[User_talk:TorchicBlaziken|talk]]•[[Special:Contributions/TorchicBlaziken|edits]]) 15:34, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Some people have already used a game-altering device so that when Arceus is sent out it is the ??? type. The sprite indeed changes, however I've only seen videos of Arceus changing into his ??? form and then back into his Normal form because there is no ??? plate. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 15:56, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

== Phys/Spec split ==

"Because they're not programmed to be either physical or special moves, even with a base power of 255 (the highest that the game allows), the move will do almost no damage."

Is this true for 4th gen games? Because, logically, it shouldn't be. (Unless Gamefreak used some really cheap work-around, which is unnecessary as far as I know.) --[[User:~Poke~|~Poke~]] 05:59, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

== Struggle? ==

Struggle has no offensive properties. Could it be '???' type? What is it listed as in the game's coding?

The woman who gives the spell tag dissapears after you get it there also rumors of a ghost on the route (talk to trainers) Coinsedence? [[User:Atomix26|Atomix26]] 00:40, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

No, it is possibly a '''COINCIDENCE''' (spelling joke)--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 00:44, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't believe it is a coincidence. As I mentioned in the article, the spell tag is a ghost-related item, there's a trainer on the route who specifically mentions hauntings, and IIRC, the 'ghost' herself talks in a slow, disjointed manner (lots of ellipses) and says that 'a ''person'' ... [is] a rare sight'. Also note that the house itself has no lighting, not even after dark which implies that it has been abandoned and no-one lives there.

'''Route 217''' is a route in [[Sinnoh]] that leads to the [[Acuity Lakefront]]. This route is in the middle of a huge blizzard, hampering visibility and the ability to [[Running Shoes|run]] or ride [[bike]]s. Also, in every wild Pokémon battle or trainer battle, it will be [[Weather conditions|hailing]], damaging any non-{{type2|Ice}} Pokémon. [[Ice Rock]] is located at the extreme northeast of this route. If an {{p|Eevee}} is leveled up in this route, it will evolve into {{p|Glaceon}}. When the player enters this area in {{game|Platinum}}, they encounter [[Maylene]], have a chat and then she runs off to [[Snowpoint City]].

==Trivia==
*Just like in the [[Eterna Forest]], it is impossible to evolve Eevee into either of its time-based evolutions, {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}} here, due to the presence of the [[Ice Rock]].
*If the player re-enters the house near the Ice Rock after the Spell Tag is obtained, the woman that gives it has disappeared. The nature of the item in conjunction with Ace Trainer Olivia's comments of hauntings in the area implies that the woman was a ghost. This also draws parallels with [[Eterna Forest]], where the only other (human) ghosts in the game can be seen.
