Missingno. {{v2|Yellow}} form is {{2t|Normal|999}}, whereas Missingno. forms in {{game|Red and Blue|s}} are {{2t|Bird|Normal}}. It uses the palette of {{p|Pikachu}}, and so appears as a yellow and red glitched box. It also causes glitches that Missingno. in Red and Blue did not. If caught, it will cause graphical glitches, possibly rendering the player invisible and making duplicates of the player and all other on-screen characters walk in random locations on the screen. Yellow form is exclusive to {{game|Yellow}}.

Missingno.'s appearance in-battle allows the [[Item duplication glitch#Pokédex 000 item duplication glitch|item duplication glitch]], which increases the number of items in the 6th bag slot by 128 unless the number of items in the slot already exceeds 128.

Encountering Missingno. has been known to interfere with the save game data in various ways, such as adversely affecting the [[Hall of Fame]] saved data and (if its stats are viewed) messing with some graphics until the stats of a normal Pokémon are viewed. When a Trainer battles with Missingno. in their [[party]], both the Trainer sprite and their Pokémon's sprites will be scrambled, and all other sprites will be reversed. Viewing the [[stats]] screen of a non-glitch Pokémon will remove the effects.

In Pokémon Yellow, capturing Missingno. will cause multiple player sprites to walk around the screen.

==Trading Missingno.==
==Trading Missingno.==
Missingno. can be traded from Red and Blue into {{game|Yellow}}, but cannot be traded forward through the [[Time Capsule]] into {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. In Yellow, Missingno. levels down to level 1 if it gains any experience, and cannot grow any higher. The only way to use a Missingno. at a different level in battle is to use a [[link cable]] to battle between two games.
