If you have a gameshark you can catch all of these weird and wonderful ones like "□□ A□" which looks like a brick and has 1 attack called "□F.□T" which crashes your game when you use it, and theres also "1□M0#" which, when you catch it, continues to fight you after you have already captured it. When you capture it again, the game crashes. I think theres another one called "□8□□" or something which turns into an item in your pack called "□□ 87□", which there are x0 of. When you use it it quickly changes all of the shade palettes around and looks like a strobe light effect. Then the game crashes.[/nerdy pokemon discussion]

Terribly buggy. As it was Game Freak's first game, there was very little bug checking, and as game boy emulators more or less didn't exist back then, there was no way to test it with ease.
