Chikorita's third evolution stayed the same, but its middle evolution was a tiny Cartoon Creature in the middle of a flower called Hanamogura, which may have been a remnant of a different Grass starter line altogether. Happa was a very early version of Chikorita with a less refined design. Instead of the Cyndaquil line, the Fire starters were a bear-themed Pokémon line called Honoguma, Volbear, and Dynabear, while the Water-type starters were Kurusu, Aqua, and Aquaria, seal-looking Cartoon Creatures instead of Totodile. A 1997 playable Space World demo showed off the original three starters.Something similar would later happen with Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 and Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, which had both versions share the same game mascot. Lugia was actually designed specifically for Pokémon 2000 by anime showrunner Takeshi Shudō (the only Pokémon that he designed, in fact), and was incorporated into the games after becoming hugely popular among filmgoers. Lugia did not exist at this point, and Ho-Oh was intended to be the mascot for both versions (appearing on the title screen of Silver as well as Gold).There was going to be a voodoo doll Pokémon named Norowara, which evolved into a Chinese Vampire panda named Kyonpan.They would have been the franchise's first pure Ice-types if implemented. There was supposed to be a wolf-based Pokémon called Urufuman and its evolution Waaurufu.The weird-looking Shellder on Slowbro's tail was originally its own Pokémon called Turbann.Rinrin and Berurun were two Dark-type black cat Pokémon that were cut.There was going to be an Electric-type tiger Pokémon named Kotora and its evolution Raitora, both of which were previously considered for the Gen I games, as well as shark Pokémon Ikari, which had an anchor for a tail.Snubbull was originally female-only and it had no evolution.Instead of being a split evolution of Slowpoke, Slowking was supposed to be an evolution of Slowbro.Umbreon, Gloom, and Weepinbell's branch evolution was originally supposed to evolve from the Poison Stone.Politoed, Xatu, and Espeon were supposed to evolve using the Heart Stone.Qwilfish, Pinsir, and Ditto originally were going to evolve.They were also more simplistic-looking, with Pichu being little more than a blob with ears and limbs and Cleffa not having its Tuft of Head Fur. Baby Pokémon were all meant to evolve at Level 12.Girafarig's pre-evolution, a pair of conjoined ghosts, was reworked to become Wobbuffet. Pre-evolutions for Vulpix, Meowth, Ponyta, and Goldeen were originally meant to be added in Gen I. Vulpix's pre-evolution Mikon having three white-tipped tails is a reference to how Pokédexes mention that Vulpix are born with one tail. Vulpix, Tangela, Meowth, Ponyta, Goldeen, Paras, Doduo, Grimer, Growlithe, and Girafarig were originally meant to have pre-evolutions.The first four of these weren't added until almost ten years later in Diamond and Pearl, while an evolution for Farfetch'd didn't officially debut until over twenty years later in Sword and Shield, in the very different form of Sirfetch'd. The 1997 demo shows that Mime Jr., Lickilicky, Tangrowth, Leafeon, and an evolution for Farfetch'd (named "Madame") were planned for Generation 2.Porygon2 originally looked ◊ nothing like its final design or even the original Porygon - more than anything, it had a striking resemblance to Gen III's Castform Sun Form, or Mister Donut 's Pon de Lion mascot, both of which it predates.Rai, En, and Sui were much more dog-like versions of the Legendary Beasts.Remoraid and Octillery were originally going to have more weapon/military-style features.Delibird originally wore a Santa-like hat.It had shorter limbs and a heart pattern on its head. Blissey didn't originally have an egg or a pouch.Milktank originally had a circle on its head, not a triangle.Politoed originally didn't have the swirl on its head, its stomach pattern resembled the others in its line, and it had more frog-like limbs.Its eyes would be beady with a darker colored head and normal six spider legs. Phanpy's original design had pointier ears, a longer trunk, and different patterns on its body.Ledian originally had star-shaped patterns on its body, which explains its category as the "five-star Pokémon".It also has a shorter neck and only two neck rings. Ampharos was originally completely yellow-and-black.Bellossom was originally dark blue, not light green.Qwilfish's GSC sprites accidentally have a short tail, like its original design. Qwilfish's original design was a simple blue blowfish.Girafarig's backside was originally a complete giraffe (making it look like conjoined twins).Hoppip had a darker body, no arms, and no legs.Pokémon that received redesigns during development:.
