When Neptune and Uranus were founded, it seemed as though there were some irregularities with their orbits, and Percival Lowell believe it was due to another planets gravitation pull, and he dubbed it Planet X. When Pluto was found in 1990, they believed this was the planet, however it's gravity was not strong enough to cause the orbit irregularities, and the search for a tenth planet continued for a short time.

Pluto was then declassified as a planet, and now it seems unlikely that 'Planet X' exists. However we now use the term 'Planet X' informally to describe any potential unknown planets in our solar system.
