Job #95: MissingNo.
The way I see it, this Pokémon is sort of in a gray area with being included in Smash; on one end, it's a legitimate Pokémon with a number, a moveset, and a large amount of popularity. On the other, it was never intentionally created and doesn't have anything official about it because of that.
What MissingNo. could bring has technically already been said. It could bring an entirely new way to fight. Attacks may not hit or have a set amount of damage to deal, its shielding duration may not be the same as others' at some times, and movements and animations may have graphical errors that don't even need to be fixed. That also goes for bugs too; MissingNo. might not need to be updated often due to what it is, and if they do it may just be for balancing changes.

But why would I want this, and what could it bring?
I mainly want this character due to the possibly endless options it has for a moveset. It's a glitch and an unintentional creation, therefore it has no real stats or moves. It's an opportunity for creative liberty, and I love that. The only things MissingNo. has are four moves and a few forms: it can use Water Gun, Sky Attack, Pay Day, and Bind, and the forms it has are its famous glitched portraits, Kabutops and Aerodactyl fossils, and a ghost. These moves don't even have to work like they do in the games since MissingNo. is an anomaly.What MissingNo. could bring has technically already been said.
