As a result, I originally thought that all MissingNos looked like the ghost. It was only when I purchased a used copy of Pokemon Red and used a different name that I ever saw the pixel MissingNo. In my stories and artwork, I usually portray MissingNo as the ghost to differentiate between ‘M and MissingNo – ordinarily they would be indistinguishable from one another.
