Responding to post
Speaking of theories, I have one that I don't think has been deliberated upon. I believe what I researched is very interesting, so here's the super-shortened version:
If there was to be a 6th Generation, there would be a small problem (Well, to some people it would be a problem). One of the new Pokemon would have the Pokedex number of 666, and therefore it would never be looked at the same by people who cared. But, see, there's ALREADY more than 666 Pokemon. I mean Formes; Pokemon with different stats, Types, and appearances that aren't counted as a Pokedex number. I won't put the list here for space purposes, but here's the what it adds up to.
There are 70 Pokemon unrepresented with their own Pokedex number. This, with the 649 species, makes 719. The difference of 719 and 666(therefore the number we must subtract from 649) is 53. 649 - 53 = 596. But there is one Pokemon of the 70 uncounted that comes after the Pokedex Number 596(Meloetta). So go back one. 595. The real #666 is the Pokedex number 595. Joltik.
This theory of mine had been flawed previously, as I had forgotten some of the alternate Formes and appearances. But I'm sure sure it's accurate now.
I don't mean this to be a serious condemning of Joltik, as he's one of my very favorite from the 5th Gen, but simply an interesting thought I had that I took the time to factor mathematically. This almost makes me want to write some sort of story about an evil Joltik now, though. *spooky laugh* Additionally, I do not mean to offend anyone who would take offense from the subject.
I apologize for having such a large post. If you want a list of the 70 aforementioned 'uncounted Pokemon', you may e-mail me for it. I wanted to condense my theory as much as possible. I can also include the non-condensed math equation I did, if you think I made a mistake.
Thank you for your time.

Como que 4,36% 1HP dormido y con ultraballs contra suicune.
Thanks so much for this! It helped me catch Mewtwo only using regularPokeballs.
Pokemon ain't even actual animals gng.
I really like the old-school fansite feel here. The Favorite Pokémon Picker and catch rate tools are the kind of things that make a fan site actually useful instead of just another social feed.
Cool to see a guestbook still active too.
Cool
found this site from the favorite pokemon thing, and now I'm trying to find the secret link
Nice website
This is pretty cool honestly, made it to the end! I found the Icelandic stuff pretty interesting lol…
This website is so helpful! I wanted to know the odds of me catching the paldea legends in color-coordinating pokeballs (luxury ball for ting-lu, nest ball for wo-chien, repeat ball for chi-yu, and dive ball for chien-pao (yes, I know the pokeballs I chose added no catch buff whatsoever, I did it for the colors)), and the catch calculator was extremely helpful for this!
My favorite thing about Pokémon are the old school fansites and forums, like TCoD. I've loved Pokémon since I was little, but it wasn't until I got online and found sites like this one, Mew's Hangout, Mewtwofan's Pokémon Page, Suta-Raito, etc. that I truly fell in love with the series. The fact that most modern fans think the Internet was invented in 2010 and have no idea these old sites existed makes me so sad.
Thanks im caching a magneton in firered
Cool
You're right; I was thinking of some other glitch that existed in both.
I'm not super well-versed in the history of glitches in Japan, but I think the major glitch that got really famous in Japan was the select button glitch, which was fixed in Yellow and all localizations, and I'm pretty sure that can result in glitch Pokémon, so my assumption would be if the Old Man glitch wasn't available there, that's probably how Japanese players would have gotten to know Missingno. and company.
"and in Red and Blue (and their Japanese counterparts)"
Not to be nitpicky a whole 10 months later, but from what I've read (e.g. https://glitchcity.wiki/wiki/Old_man_glitch#Compatibility and https://github.com/pret/pokered/wiki/Left-Shore-can-spawn-Pok%C3%A9mon ), it sounds like the coast glitch actually didn't exist in the Japanese Red, Green, or Blue versions, and it was an error introduced in the localization process (and then fixed again in all versions of Yellow).
That said, now I'm wondering how Japanese players discovered MissingNo., and also how such a non-text-related bug could've been introduced in localization…
I think I'm 25 years too late for this, but cool website. Got any tips for assembling a team that rocks the battle tower?
Let's give this a try!
This helped me catch Lugia in a basic Poke Ball after I learned that there's no reason to get it down to 1 HP, just 49% or lower. Huge time saver, thanks!
Catch mechanics are weird because I caught Ho-Oh in HGSS with my very first ultra ball in the very first try, but I'm 40 ultra balls and I still haven't caught Suicune despite having the same catch rate.
Wow, I had a hardcoded list there and it was just missing Clefairy somehow all this time. Thanks! It should be fixed now in every calculator.
