These weren't empty voids. They were filled with "anti-data"—subroutines programmed with a literal phobia of being interacted with. If a player used an Action Replay to force a UXenophobiand into their party or a PC box, the game didn't just crash.

The number 4780, whether intentionally placed or emergently discovered, represents the precise threshold where either frustration or fascination wins the psychological battle.
