Was Missingno a good idea for an error handler?
For the unaware: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MissingNo.
>MissingNo. are used as error handlers by game developer Game Freak; they appear when the game attempts to access data for a nonexistent Pokémon species. Due to the programming of three in-game events, players can encounter MissingNo. via a glitch.

It was discovered through gameshark and very specific, lengthy and fragile techniques that the regular player back in the day would never discover.
How the fuck can any competent developer let that even happen. It fucks up the hall of fame and increases the amount of an item slot and it's always the 6th.

After talking to the tutorial man at the beginning of the game. Almost nobody does that after their first playthrough.
