[https://spwhitton.name/blog/img/missingno.jpg MissingNo. encounter in the first person. (somewhat)]

Some fun trivia is that that image, if unintentional is actually mostly realistic for what it would look like. MissingNo.'s Japanese Pokédex states it's a meter tall, but it's 10 feet tall in the NA version due to an error converting from metric to customary, making it use the same numbers [1 0] for both and adding an extra zero as a blank title. (metric dex uses two numbers minimum, customary uses three)

Meaning it's well known L-shaped NA version would tower over pretty much anyone, and ironically enough, even though it only retroactively existed at the same time, of all the Pokémon it's closest in size to, the literal pokégod is second closest,  Arceus having a height of 10'6". (the other being a pokémon that changes sizes in it's totem form, at 10'2")

It's glitched up Red & Green version though, is ironically less intimidating as a meter equals out to approximately 3 feet, making this 4 foot plushie a surprisingly close to accurate and oddly adorable depction of it it doesn't often get.
