WEIRD Cut Pokemon Content Facts You DON'T Know!

btw, an update about the unused Arceus event in the Sinnoh Pokemon games for those who still don't know (I don't mean specifically you, I'm just posting this as a reply to you on a whim): Later down the line, long after the Diamond and Pearl remakes' release, that unused Arceus event is present in BDSP, though in a different way than what most long-time Pokemon fans would think: If you have Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl, but also have save data of Legends Arceus that has you having "seeked out all Pokemon", you can load up BDSP after becoming the Champion (I think), and return to your room at your home in Twinleaf Town, where for some odd reason, the Azure Flute is just sitting there (probably to do with some timetravel stuff) and you can take it and do the Arceus event as Gamefreak originally intended you to get Arceus: By playing the Azure Flute at Spear Pillar to open the pathway to The Hall of Origin, where you fight Arceus. But fyi, if you do seek out Arceus in BDSP or hack out the Azure Flute in the original Gen 4 Sinnoh region games, make sure you save your game before you climb the stairs to The Hall of Origin, as, once Lord Arceus sees you approaching him, he will force a battle with you, he won't let you save your game in front of him, to softreset for each failed capture or the like.

[@hangoverbirdman6339]

For the Magma Stone in DP: perhaps Heatran was at some point in development an event Pokemon like Darkrai, Shaymin or Arceus and required the event distributed Magma Stone to appear.

[@DetectiveBarricade]

If I remember correctly, the player goes with Buck into Stark Mountain where he takes the Magma Stone, only to be told to put it back. When you return, Heatran will be waiting in that room. It's possible that originally the player would have been charged with taking the Magma Stone back to have Heatran appear.

[@joshernsteen2066]

I believe that was the original plan for the Heatran cutscene to occur and then they scraped it for the final version of the game. I definitely stumbled upon the interview by a complete accident with Nintendo explaining exactly what happened during the development of cutscene of triggering Heatran. It definitely mentioned the Magma Stone being used somehow, that much I can recall. I was nowhere near Stark Mountain when I managed to somehow come across the interview. I believe that they also granted permission to share the exact information from to interview to broaden the perspective and to make awareness of the player need to get Heatran registered in the players pokedex if is not already.

[@emeraldnightmare2027]

About the "Dummy" TM- in programming, it's pretty common practice to name variables that you don't really need names for "dummy". So, good chance that that TM is just a placeholder that they used when designing the code for TMs.

[@joshernsteen2066]

Nintendo might have explained why the Dummy TM was place there in an interview regarding the trade sequence regarding the Mr. Mime trade in Fire Red and Leaf Green that I stumbled upon by a complete accident. They definitely confirmed that it was a place holder for the substitute attack. This specific information they gave permission to share over social media since spies would not particularly care about this bit of information, even if some of them have likely found it already. I believe that Nintendo even said it in the interview as well.

[@doplop]

i prefer to believe it just means stupid

[@dib1420]

The god stone might've been for kyurem. Like how reshiram was the light stone and zekrom was the dark stone. But instead of reviving kyurem it could've been something kyurem can hold to turn into the "original dragon".

[@castform7]

9:06 I think Pokemon just really likes putting poorly drawn numbers with a green background into their files.

[@shuckletamergaming]

Fun fact: The Arceus you get in platinum with the Azure Flute can be transferred to black 2 and white 2, but cannot be transferred to pokebank as it is seen as an illegitimate pokemon to pokebank when attempted. It does however trigger the Sinjho Ruins event in hgss.

[@Naluh]

Even more: with a Legitimate Arceus, and Hall of origin Arceus, you can trigger the Sinjoh Ruins TWICE. The second time, Cynthia is gone.

[@bortzanator3018]

Huge fan of the of the WEIRD DON'T series, good job.

[@hhjan594]

The God Stone in Black2/White2 is obviously related to Kyurem. It's the same stone as the Light stone and the Dark stone (which is actually Reshiram and Zekrom) but in a grey color, and Kyurem is mostly a grey color pokemon (Because grey is the color between Black and White.) I would suppose originally this stone is going to serve the same purpose as being Kyurem itself, but they scrapped this idea eventually. In the actual game you will see Getsis take out this stone and it will transform into the Gene Splicer that can fuse Kyurem with either Reshiram or Zekrom.

[@joshernsteen2066]

There was definitely an explanation provided by Nintendo regarding the God Stone, I cannot remember where exactly I found the information at.

[@MaverickZ3r0]

Minor correction to the X/Y part: You can hack the Apricorn Balls in, but the game won't let you use them as Poke Balls. I tried it out before and it didn't work, and double-checked just now to make sure. Sadly they just sit in the bag and do nothing. You can, however, hack in and use Cherish Balls.

[@joshernsteen2066]

Nintendo made sure that Cherish balls can be hacked in every game that have them and used for a very specific reason that I believe I saw online with them talking about it. Cherish Balls can also be hacked into Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, and they also function perfectly fine. Nintendo made 100% certainly that Cherish balls would work as intended and not crash the game. I found an official statement by Nintendo confirming it. Nintendo is well aware of spies in their building, and places content that they talk about appropriately on the internet.

[@joshernsteen2066]

Nintendo explained that they disabled the aprocorn balls from being used in Pokemon X and Y for reasons that I saw an explanation from clearly explanation their reasons as to why. Part of the explanation was that they allowed Cherish balls to be used in the game. They make the information incredibly hard to find on purpose, even though it is authentic, since they do not want spies to get ahold of the information. They probably do not want anybody to talk about the exact reasons on social media as they made themselves pretty clear with the other information regarding Luigi.

[@joshernsteen2066]

I believe that you actually commented a similar comment on a old Pokemon X and Y video regarding that you were going to eventually retry it again sometime in the future.

[@artoro8]

@@joshernsteen2066 what happened w Luigi?

[@samwill7259]

I don't just want those giant regi dolls in the game for my secret base. I want them in real life for my actual house. Just three massive regi trio beanbag chairs.

[@zigazav1]

That would be some obscure plushies to have irl. if they don't exist already irl. The Regi trio is certainly not the first few Pokemon that comes to mind first for making Pokemon plushie merch. Still, I like the original idea, not sticking to merely "cute Pokemon" for plushies.

[@EzBound]

7:20 Damn, that female version of Rotom is so cool! I wonder why they erased it from Sword and Shield... It would have been such a cool form.

[@scrunkore]

it's possibly related to rotomi, the rotom they put in the pc

[@Leto85]

The Surf board in gen 1 is used by Pikachu when it knows the move Surf. You can teach it Surf through Pokémon Stadium by beating certain battles. I remember I've beaten it once on Yellow, taught Pikachu Surf, traded it over to Silver, cloned it, evolved one Pikachu into Raichu and moved both back to Yellow. Next turn in Stadium Pikachu used an actual surfboard where Raichu was surfing on its tail.

[@shadowmarauder6033]

An ice terrain could've had the extra effect of increasing freeze effects and to slow down pokemon that weren't ice type or flying. The aqua terrain's effects could've included that everyone's evasion went down.

[@gus_0065]

i think the god stone would probably be how you got kyurem originally, since reshiram and zekrom were sealed in identical stones, except for the color.

[@Kronos327]

For an ice terrain you could make it so if a Pokémon stays on the field for 4 consecutive turns whilst icy terrain is out, it gets frozen

[@rustamtalibzade6989]

Omg 😂

[@taqahti]

that would be the most fucking annoying mechanic I love it

[@theginkgo]

It could also start to deal damage after a few turns, kinda like frostbite from Legends Arceus.

[@ThePrinceVon]

I’d keep it simple and just buff the speed of ice types either ice types that are on the ground or all of them by like 1.25x

[@shaobues]

i think it could be almost like hail, doing damage after each turn

[@grantwilliamson7166]

I reckon Ice teraine could work like high jump kick but for all misses from a pokemon that isn't ice type

[@sb6196]

I'm pretty sure the god stone was originally meant for kyurem since it's a recoloured white/dark stone.

[@WWEdeadman]

I actually laugh every time you use the Equals Three transition in a video xD

[@staysmileyinc]

So what you’re saying is, there’s gonna be a video about the unused items in Gen 1. Fantastic!

[@ryguy7282]

What if the ice terrain made the faster Pokémon in battle have a slightly reduced accuracy? As if the the Pokémon “moved too fast” and slipped on the ice causing an occasional attack miss.

[@mayamayhemmusic]

that would be really cool yo! c:

[@Morgil27]

That God Stone was most likely a counterpoint to the Black Stone and White Stone that summon Zekrom and Reshiram, respectively. The gray God Stone was most likely connected to Kyurem.

[@stevecooper6578]

[@ssjmatt8424]

Honestly, I did not know a lot of this stuff. I love it. Outside of the beta stuff in gen 2. Nice! Well outside of the Arceus event thing anyway.

[@inkii-y]

the ice and water terrains were probably unused because Hail and rain (and sun/sandstorm for that matter) can be sort of be compared to terrain

[@younghacker09]

I've been on a huge Pokèmon kick lately and your channel has paired perfectly with that. great work!!

[@younghacker09]

[@peterkane1539]

I wish apricorns had been in x and y, its too bad theyve only been in a few games.

[@Z-Vee]

There are actually four region IDs corresponding to Kalos, however only two go used being for X and Y. My best guess was that dual enhanced versions for X and Y were planned but ultimately scrapped.

[@eternalnos2179]

Dude.. thank you for nailing that =3 transition perfectly, that was so cool

[@mrmarshtomp707]

I could see an ice terrain that makes the heavier the Pokémon the faster they are

[@aaronkay101kinetic]

That cool =3 transition threw me back to the early days of KZbin. Aw man, good times.

I have one maybe when you use the ice terrain it decreases accuracy for all physical moves because you know it’s slippery

[@doritohair0759]

Based on the grey color of the grey stone, and it’s design, I’m gonna guess it was gonna be Kyreum’s stone form, but was scrapped

[@Lokear]

I look at a LOT of unused game content, so I'm excited to see how many I did and didn't know!

[@zackeryarter]

That cool transition was just what needed

[@playboikaniiii]

the magma stone is "used" by buck in a post-game event, it's only mentioned that he has to return it

[@Zabe_B]

i dont think the "cursed shadow" on zygarde 10% is a shadow, it looks like that's another model stored underneath--and it looks a lot like the next zygarde up, the snake. 50%?

[@_Tzer]

The god stone looks like kyurem in colour and.. like the dna splicers during the cutscene with ghetsis.

[@catriamflockentanz]

7:51 Well Bruxish is kinda iconic. At least it's not forgettable. Even if the reason most people remember it is its hideousness...

[@craigjohnson2918]

Also my guess on the two different aplin models is maybe it was originally gonna have an ability similar to mimikyu and isecue

[@Ayyem93]

Regarding the gen 4 event items, I think it's a retcon that they thought they were too confusing to use. I got Pearl launch day and had an action replay, and after people started finding out about walking through walls to skip elite 4, the event items and other things is about the time I remeber those things being scrapped. I can't definitely say but from being around back then, I'm fairly confident that gamefreak saw us finding things and got mad and decided to scrap thw stuff. I had Arceus Darkrai and Shaymin through their event items within the first month of release.

[@gluttonousgoddess]

That's dumb, punishing innocent people for the actions of people who aren't even hurting anyone.

[@Ayyem93]

@@gluttonousgoddess And people like me weren't really hurting anyone either because you couldn't trade them through gts, so if you had one especially within the first few months of release everyone knows it wasn't legit. It wasn't until about 6 months to a year after release that it would become a problem with an Acton replay assisted tool coming out that let you create Pokemon from scratch and alter every single detail about them. Many people made event legendaries from all gens til that point and tried(many succeeding) to pass them off as real. Does that mean they should just scrap any special release Pokemon? I'm fairly confident it's that gamefreak got mad.

[@Ayyem93]

@@gluttonousgoddess forgot to mention the faking of event Pokemon was quite ironically assisted by Serebii, by using their page that told people all of the details a real event legend would have so people could better fake them.

[@gluttonousgoddess]

@@Ayyem93 who cares about legitimacy, it's a game. Most players hate hacked pokemon because they were told to by Nintendo.

[@Ayyem93]

@@gluttonousgoddess I don't care either way, I was giving some perspective of why they probably scrapped those items from my experience in the community back then.

I think ice terrain could make the Pokémon slip and slide so physical moves are less accurate.

[@thesusmemegodmilituga1744]

[@mantazzo]

Well, as for items list in Sword/Shield, that list was most likely a carry-over from Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee to avoid remaking items completely, which was a carry-over from Sun/Moon series, which was a carry-over from X/Y, which was a carry-over from Black/White series, which was a carry-over from Diamond/Pearl/Platinum/HeartGold/SoulSIlver, which was probably a carry-over from Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald/FireRed/LeafGreen. Jesus that's quite a carry-over already...

[@Golden_Hydra]

So in other words... a majority of these are because GF is was and still is incompetent. "Oh we have these apricorn balls fully functional in X/Y, should we program a special npc players can buy them from?" "Naaaaaah that's too much work." "What about the elemental gems?" "Only leave one in to spite players who use the others in tournaments." "Well what about Zygarde?" "Put its story in the next gen where it really shouldn't be because we can't be bothered to make a proper post game for X/Y."

[@genericusername3334]

I have an idea about how the applin without the apple model would be used. Before the development of eiscue, it was meant to be a Pokemon that had a disguise like ability. However, it seemed useless to put it on a first stage and then have the entire mechanic removed for their evolutions, so they gave it to a single stage Pokemon instead.

Around the time we saw a content drought in Pokémon after the release of ORAS, game freak where in the process of their gear project. They wanted to test the water with games to try and make something as successful as Pokémon. Had they not tried this, a return to kalos would’ve likely happened and so we could’ve seen zygarde and ash greninja useable in a gen 6 game.

[@joshernsteen2066]

There was roughly 3 regions(?) that appeared on my game that was triggered prior to the DLC that included the region that was used for the DLC. Maybe the other items will be used in the other regions, but there no official confirmation, to my knowledge than they wanted to possibly make more regions in the future, other than the Crown Tundra information which they talked about over 2 decades ago with them being unsure how to make the idea at the time. It was really scattered among the other information that they talked about as well. They were probably able to make the region very easily since they had all of the details planned out already, including the pre-planning to make the region backtrack itself just incase the player made any mistakes. It is also the only way for the player to get both pokemon on a single copy of the game without trading a whole lot easier. There was clear mention of them being made available for at least a few months apart from each other completely ignoring the region. They did mention that Legend Arcues might have it included in there as well with a slim of doubt.

I think the unused theatre was for the pokestar studios cinema (which didn't get implemented until b2w2), and I think it goes unused cos when you actually watch the movies it's just one long cutscene instead

[@joshernsteen2066]

That would logically make some sense since the PokerStar Studio in the game remakes are split up. Also judging by the time the games had to be coded, it would take too long for them to make shorts split up by category. They were likely too busy designing the Gen 9 starter pokemon and commenting about Pokemon Scarlet and the other game to actually focus on the PokerStar Studios. I have had that theory for a little bit of time now possibly, and only now can I speak up about it. I might have actually unsuccessfully glitched my way into that room, and only saw a very little bit of the content that was coded into the game. Nintendo knows what they are doing when it comes to glitching into areas regarding non-event pokemon map zones, and they have to honor the request even of the person does it abnormally as permitted by the gamecode.
