jasmine's old sprite reminded me of something.
touhou aside, this shit is actually pretty damn cool. whats really interesting is that they were really pushing the whole idea of baby pokemon, but i guess gamefreak realized how useless a lot of them were and got rid of a lot of them. i also want to point out that what looks like hitmontop and its pre evolution (beta tyrogue) may have originally been their own evo family, as they look quite different (a lot more fluffier i suppose) than hitmonlee and hitmonchan in the beta, but quickly became their own family; which is why hitmontop may seem out of place compared to lee and chan. a lot of the other things have been pointed out in this thread, such as how pinsir evolution was likely reworked into heracross and made its own, and also farfetchd was gonna have an evolution, goddammit why did it get scrapped. also kind of interesting to see quagsire and sunflora exist but not their pre evos, perhaps their pre evos werent coded in the game yet?, along with lugia not existing yet.
