Pokemon Gold and Silver had a development cycle that changed drastically as time passed with the game even getting rebooted once. These include large differences to at least 142 Pokemon that were altered or cut. Today on Cut Content, we explore these Pokemon
NOTE: This is a compilation video of the two Gold and Silver Beta Pokemon videos

Those leaks were a gift that keeps on giving, I love how we're still learning about Gamefreak's thought process for Pokemon over 25 years later. It was clear from Ho-oh appearing in episode 1 of the anime that the Pokedex was never set in stone, even in the first games. I fondly remember those days before social media when the debuts of Togepi and "Pikablu" drove us nuts trying to figure out.

You're making some wrong conclusions because you forgot that the games come from Japan and were released over two years earlier than in the US. The Anime came out over a year after the first games were released, so obviously new Pokémon beyond 151 were only considered after the success.

I find it funny how little he took note of the dinosaur skeleton Pokémon at the end. It's possible that it's the monster from the original idea for the second Pokémon movie. Basically archeologists would have discovered some more dinosaur bones which would have come alive and destroyed stuff. It was supposed to be weirdly existential because if the headspace of the writer at the time (He kept writing stories about coexistence including a Pokemon revolution idea) In interviews he said it was meant to be a more normal dinosaur, but that could have changed before it was scrapped to better match the established lore. I really want to know if its index is by the legendaries.

7:57 - that mini Girafarig backsprite got left out. It's the backsprite of that white Wobbublob thing in the 1999 build that evolves into Girafarig who by this point had its final design, meaning that it was presumably an intended Girafarig preevolution between Twinz and becoming Wobbuffet. Most of the other Gen 2 beta dex videos forget to mention it too and it's a shame that we only have its backsprite, but it's clearly a separate preevolution of Girafarig.

One thing to remember is the Pokémon ,at least early gens, were created as sprites first before being drawn, it’s likely many of these were only ever meant to be proof of concept and not indeed to actually be put in the current game. Also. Bellsprout having a planned evolution could be an explanation as to why Speout tower was in the game. Also this is the first time I heard “Animon” pronounced, so I just realized the pun

The Kurusu line 100% inspired the creation of Samurott and the Popplio line. Berurun line 100% inspired the Liepard line, with Purrloin standing on 2 legs being taken from Rinrin. Urufuman 100% became Snover. The Kotora line 100% got turned into the Litten line (Just look at the markings of their backs being the same as on Incineroar). Norowara became the inspiration for Cacnea line (The thing on their heads looks like a crown).

Am I the only one that sees a link between Madam and Lugia? The Madam design was in the '97 demo and Lugia didn't appear until the '99 demo. They clearly have some design similarities and it's fishy that the Farfetch'd evolution was cut as the 2nd Legendary was added to the first Pokemon sequel. I theorize that the Madam design was reworked into Lugia.

@@ghoulchan7525 That is a well known fact, but does nothing to disprove my theory. Lugia was commissioned by Takeshi Shudō, the writer for the first 3 Pokemon movies. He requested that a new pokemon be created for the movie. Being the writer and not a monster designer, he may have written a description or provided a sketch, but the actual design itself was likely created by Ken Sugimori or another member of the G&S monster design staff. There isn't a lot of solid information about when exactly the movie began production, but it seems unlikely that the writing would have begun before '97. I haven't found enough information to be able to say if my theory holds any water, but so far I haven't found any holes either.

The nail origin is more likely from an urban legend from Japan. Where you have to nail a straw doll between 1 and 3 a.m. on a sacred tree, by a shrine. You have to think about a person you want to kill while doing so. After 7 (?) days and nailing a doll on a tree every day they die. It's a forbidden thing to do but everywhere in Japanese culture. Voodoo is African (parts) culture.

This is but one woman's opinion, but the earlier beta Dunsparce design from 1996 would have been better as a final evolution that Dudunsparce as it has a much more original design rather than just having a longer body. One wonders likewise if the flying ninja squirrel eventually became Emolga as well.

The pokedex ordering is actually really simple to explain. They were more focused on designing new pokemon and the easiest way to get them in the game for testing is to add a new entry to the pokedex at the end and insert them. Edit: I would love for future legends games to go back to older unused sprites for pokemon to make and influence new forms for them as "ancient forms." It makes sense as in real life these are the earliest known forms of these pokemon.

I would give "Anymon" a second move or ability that allows it to "remember" a pokemon it copied from a previous battle. So you could send it out against, say, a legendary, "copy it" and carry it around. It should probably "forget" it's form if defeated (or maybe even after taking a certain ammount of damage) and of course it wouldn't count for your pokedex. I don't know if it would be completely broken, but souds interesting enough and a logical step beyond basic Ditto and fitting for the name.

Im convinced this cavalcade of beta Pokemon is still used for new games. I mean hell we basically had beta Bombirdier, a Pokemon that was added to Gen 9. Honestly shocking the similarities. 30:34 for those wondering.

Old Hitmontop's back "leg" could have been a tail possibly. It would make it a bit less weird if you looked at it like that.

Honestly, they should've kept the idea of Pinsir evolving into what's now Heracross. It would've pushed the idea of Scizor being a rival even further

21:13 Cyndaquil's "beta coloration" isn't actually its coloring; it was a placeholder for Larvitar.

Dnt know if anybody mentioned it but at the time 20:40 he mentions ho-oh being the leader of the three legendary birds when that was actualy lugia in the movie pokemon 2000 as the balance for all their respective natures and ho-oh was the resurrector of the legendary dogs that died in the tower in ecruteak city

I meant that if THIS happened with that silver dog legendary, they could have done it like that with the bird leading the birds and the dog leading the dogs. Basically if my theory of the dog is true, the mythos around Ho-oh likely was different too

5:44 Ah yes, Espion's counterpart, Espion XD 17:47 Ah yes, I too wear my hands XD But seriously, great video. I always love seeing these beta sprites from Gen 1 and 2. It makes me a bit sad to see some of these didn't make it. My personal favorites being the cats RInrin and Rerurun (3:40), which are supposed to be based on the Japanese figurines called the Maneki-Neko, or Lucky Cats, that people would put in their shops to bring good luck. They'd have a hand on a coin and one of their paws in the air waving it up and down which was a way to beckon people to come over based on some folklore of a similar fashion. Kind of surprised you didn't know that considering the other Japanese references you made.

It’s crazy how so much gets cut yet GameFreak tries to play dumb and claim they know nothing about them which is funny because half of them left the company 😅

I noticed that the Stork Pokemon from 1996 could had inspired Gen 9's Bombirder because it reminds me of that Pokemon in other words this confirms that Bombirder was going to be in Gen II originally. As for Madame I think it inspired Swanna from Gen V as like the scrapped evolution for Kantoian Farfetch'd I think Game Freak was going for Pokemon that were inspired by the Ugly Duckling which is what we got in Gen V in the form of Ducklett & Swanna, I also think the scrapped evolution for Johtoian Qwilfish likely also inspired Overqwil in Legends Arceus.

@@nousukas anyone who’s the idiot here is you because you are just jealous, and you have nothing in your life today. What I said this scrapped Pokemon inspired Bombirder as scrapped Pokemon inspire Pokemon in future games.
