Abbreviation of missing + number, translated from Japanese 欠番 (Ketsuban, “missing number”).
The original word 欠番 (Ketsuban, “missing number”) was written in Hiragana, thus "けつばん", when it first appeared in the Japanese Pokémon games Pocket Monsters Aka and Pocket Monsters Midori in 1996.
It was subsequently translated into "MISSINGNO", which was written in all caps like all names of Pokémon species, in the North American games Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue in 1998.

MissingNo. (けつばん Ketsuban), or MissingNO, is a Pokémon species found in the video games Pokémon Red and Blue. Standing for "Missing Number", MissingNo. Pokémon are used as error handlers by game developer Game Freak; they appear when the game attempts to access data for a nonexistent Pokémon species. Due to the programming of three in-game events, players can encounter MissingNo. via a glitch. The species was first documented by Nintendo in the May 1999 issue of Nintendo Power.
