Basically, Pokemon that only appear in later generations but their code is still in the game. They appear as glitches in Gen 1 but as soon as you tranfer them to Gen 2 they become Gen 2 Pokemon. They also could be programming errors, since it's a game from the early 1996 after all.

Not all glitch Pokémon are like that. MissingNO., for example, is just the game trying to acquire data that isn't there.
