Asides from the vastly-known Thistlean Phenomenon, many other strange and/or unorthodox forces and even entities have been found either influencing PixelThistle media, or exclusively found IN PixelThistle media, when they aren't supposed to be.
These occurences are known as Pixanomalies. This page serves to document a list of all currently known Pixanomalies, as well as their containment status. (If they can be contained at all.)

Entities

Sentient and/or living entities that have been found within or are related to PixelThistle media.

Lye

Status: Pending.

Lye is a strange entity found within a supposedly unreleased update for the original A Week at Eli's.
Said update, Version 1.1b, was found in the unshared projects of PixelThistle's old scratch account, PiggioWikiGuyAGain. They appear to vaguely resemble Eli's appearance within AWAE, yet are just different enough to feel off-putting in appearance.
The version of the game containing Lye is not currently in our possession, and very little of its contents have been documented.
If obtained by us, it is unlikely to be released to the public, in order to prevent Lye from potentially spreading beyond his copy.

Bit

Status: Unknown, presumably free.

Bit is a noticably smaller stylization of an older look of Pixel's. They seem to exist within some kind of white void.
We have yet to locate them, or even meet them ourselves yet. We have also confirmed a multitude of times with Pixel that he didn't create it.

Green Pixel

Status: Unknown

A sentient being that resides in Discord servers. Simply an older design of Pixel but with neon green fur.
Has only ever been encountered once, sometime in 2024, and hasn't been seen since, suggesting sightings are very rare.
Non-hostile, so we've allowed them to roam free since said single encounter. Still worth documenting though.
Falsely rumored to be radioactive.

NULL.POINTER.VALUE

Status: Semi-contained, high risk.

NULL.POINTER.VALUE (Or NPV, for short.) is an entity we have only been made aware of very, very recently.

They reside within a game known as Baldi's Basics Plus, however only when it is under the effects of the Thistlean Phenomenon. (See "Forces" category for info pertaining to said phenomenon.)
This entity seems to be extremely powerful not only within the bounds of the game, but outside it as well, able to corrupt all media involving itself, including photos and captures of its appearance our researchers have taken. As a result, visual knowledge on this entity is quite lacking. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Rarely, they appear as an NPC within the game, chasing the player down and crashing the progam on contact. Although not very distinguishable in the image provided, the environment around them distorts greatly when they are present, becoming darkened and immensely saturated.
Other reported sightings of NPV have included various different actions being performed by the entity, such as it showing up as a poster of some kind.

The entity also may double as some kind of antipiracy mechanism, as many of our researchers who looked into NPV using pirated copies had frequent encounters with a much taller, menacing creature that we now know resembles NPV.

Forces

Mysterious forces of unknown origin and intent that can be tied to a recurring Pixanomaly.

The Thistlean Phenomenon

Status: Uncontainable, Passive Force.

The Thistlean Phenomenon is the generalized term for when Pixel appears in a video game and exerts his influence upon it, commonly making various changes to said game to account for his presence. Some changes are small, others are large.

Repeat instances of the Thistlean Phenomenon are a common occurence. When compared to previous recorded instances of the same game, runs are more often than not identical, if not slightly differing. It has been confirmed with Pixel that he has his runs in games saved, and said runs are loaded prior to him appearing in a copy.

Further documentation can be found here.

Scratch Cat Ending

Status: Uncontainable, at large.

The Scratch Cat Ending is a rare phenomenon that can occur while browsing any project by the PiggioWikiGuyAGain account.
It causes the entire project to stop and be replaced by a static image of Scratch Cat recolored to look like Eli in a white void, with golden text towards the bottom reading "YOU GOT: THE SCRATCH CAT ENDING".
It is unknown where this image originates from, what force causes it, or if it has malicious intent or not, but for now it is merely a mild annoyanace, and can be removed by refreshing the page.

Misfits

Pixanomalies that don't fall into the previous two categories, but still have a clear connection to PixelThistle media.

Miscellaneous

Pixanomalies that are so loosely tied to PixelThistle, they could be mistaken as something else entirely.
