An '''unstable hybrid Pokémon''' is a Pokémon in either [[Generation I]] or [[Generation II]] that simultaneously has the properties of two different species of Pokémon. An unstable hybrid Pokémon is composed of a "recipient" Pokémon—the Pokémon it truly is and will revert back to—and a "donor" Pokémon. This is due to there being two species addresses for the player's party Pokémon in Generation I and II. The first address manages data for the "donor", whereas the second address manages data for the "recipient".

In Generation I, unstable hybrid Pokémon can be created by the [[Pokémon merge glitch]], [[Rhydon glitch]] and [[Johto guard glitch]]. In the Japanese versions of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, unstable hybrid Pokémon can be created by the [[Bug-Catching Contest data copy glitch]].
