@@thedoglovinggamer5825 Ok a few things wrong here. 1) The old lady in colosseum states that the mightyena next to her is her boyfriend but laughs right after so it shouldn't be taken literally and just an old lady joke. This is better seen when reading the whole conversation with her with it starting off by her recognizing Rui (main girl) and teasing her about whether the main character is her boyfriend.

Its actually kind of common in npc talk across the series. Also there wouldn't be a might with a pokemon that would evolve with a water stone since its guaranteed to work. 3)The man and the Gothithelle were not getting married in that episode of black and white (Clash of the Connoisseurs!). This episode is about finding the right partner pokemon for a little girl and the rival of Cilan starts describing all the qualities of what makes a good first partner pokemon like them having complementing personalities (while showing background images of examples of pokemon that matched their trainer). One of the examples was a Butler and a Gothetelle (who is based on a maid) which is why they would match. 4)There was no mention of a boyfriend in that sun/moon demo event. She mentions this amazing guy who helped her out but you have to wait a few real life days for him to appear. As a player you assume that this amazing guy is someone who would be important in the actual game (maybe a character not revealed yet) but no its just a machamp. GF pulled a fast on the player. 5)In the traces of the lost village quest you do find out that a man marries (its implied with missing text) a froslass but he never realizes this as the froslass fooled him into thinking he married a beautiful woman. Froslass's dex entries entail that they love to feast on the souls of men so yeah it was getting free meals daily by sticking around him.

The information motivating a work most certainly is important to the work as a whole. It gives context to what real world ideas the authors pull from, to inform the work. Identifying themes and ideas help people 'reverse engineer' an author's decisions and help make conclusive certain concepts a writer might only imply in a work. With that said, I dont know if any of these stories really have a place where they interact with the work. They are just weird. I think people are fine being weirded out by it though, it is pretty icky stuff.

To also add on to the first leak: Humans did marry pokemon in the past as revealed from the book in the library of Canalave city in D/P/P in the Japanese versions. Weird stuff lol.
The thing about sharpedo is that it’s an actual real life issue. People will capture sharks for their fins, cut them off then throw them back to the ocean.
For all these "its weird why they wrote it in the first place" stories - its world building. Pokemon always had real world influenced themes in the games all those myths about peple marrying pokemon and darker things are just yokai stories with a pokemon as protagonist instead of the yokai. Sharpedo finning(and by extension slowpoke tail hunting) has the theme of killing animals for just 1 delicacy and so on. These stories were deemed to be not fitting to be included as is into a childs game as they were but we can see lighter versions of some of these, like in gen4 the famous "In the past humans were closer to pokemon and some even married" snippet.
None of the current stories in pokemon games involve tricking little girls into running away and having sex for months till she is pregnant, nor being anti capitalism and anti meritocracy.
@@usersomethingsdoesn't matter what it is based on. It matters what they plant in the minds of children. Disney is messed up for what they planted in the minds of young girls. Pokemon is no different now.
It’s not that weird for the conversation of Sharpedo finning to be in the game imo, look at Cursola, look at the original Pokédex entries for Farfetchd. Slowpoke tail cutting in Gen 2? Idk, most of these are just story building, and “idk why they’d be in game, they seem explicit” well that’s why they’re not in the game. They’re not appropriate. While I view these back lore stories to be unnecessary, I also view them as just RAW creating with concepts with no limits to then break it down to what we receive in games.
Two parts of critique: 1) Nintendo never made any devolopment decision in the creation of any Pokémon Title, they act as Publisher, not Developer of the Franchise. The handle Marketing and Distribution, not creation. 2) These Stories ARE NOT secret lore or whatever. What isn't in the game doesn't exist. Almost all of thm are off-brands of known folklore, pokémonified for some reason, most likely scrapped because they couldn't rewrite them into a childfriendly way. A writing excercise. Two points about the content: 1) The height sheet is so weird. The chisen characters are so haphhazard. A Gen 3 Gymleader, both B2/W2 (which are not ten, but we never get their actual age btw), another Gen 3 Gymleader, a Gen 4 Partner, two Gen 5 Gymleaderaa and AZ, who is from Gen 6... Just why? Most of them will never come across each other. 2) Concerning your windmill question: You haven't played XY (either in quite a while or at all), have you? Otherwise you would remember Dendemille Town and it's whole shtick of being build around a gargantuan windmill...

That requires double the explanation, I won't bother waiting for it... especially as I know where this is coming from and it's definitely not a real argument.

Right. So we should just accept them? Disney has come out and said they plan to queer everything. So that's fine too then Right? Disney didn't even hide it. Pokemon did. So they should get the green light for these stories?
There's a couple of dunces in the comment who are misreading what you're saying as though you somehow condone the stuff that GF deliberately cut out of the games. Wait till they discover that humans have this curious tendency to keep records upon records of everything. These are the same fools that are overly reliant on memorisation and rote learning instead of focusing on efficient methods of documentation and retrieval. Media literacy is indeed dying.
The early Metagross and Hydreigon designs look like they belong in Final Fantasy. Still cool, though. As for the weird stories, others are saying they are writing exercises not meant for the game but Japan does seem to be more accepting of these kinds of stories than the West. Shinto mythology gets really weird, and non-Japanese don't have the cultural context so to them, "yeah, that checks out" but to us it just seems freaky.
Yeah and Japan is just doing oh so well aren't they? Inverted age demographic, no one has children, their porn is highly degrading and excessively toxic. Chikan is a thing there. "yeah, it checks out" alright.
Hey actually, "she" doesn't exist. Someone on twitter went into extreme detail about the writer not being a real person and a lot of missed details from the stories leaked.
I love this video a ton! It really was quick and informative all at once, but entertaining nonetheless As far as weird explicit canon, i think it derives from folklore as a whole. Japanese, greek, egyptian, natuve american, etc. Theyve got a lot of explicit stuff in folklore as a whole so i think gamefreak was going for that and it was meant to never go discovered
@@Realone031 yeah, that's why those are not in the games. What's your point? Games are developed by adults, even if their targeted audience are childrens
Those leaks are so much cooler than the trash we get in the official games. Like the Reggies being egg shells of Arceus trying to k*ll him?! Thats kino as heck
"Typhlosions tragic tale of deception of a young woman" Pokemon fandom: "How could he!?" Also Pokemon fandom: "Vaporeon is the most breedable Pokemon". Freak are freaks, whether Gamfreaks or Game freaks.
Paldea is based in Spain. Windmills are a very Spanish thing. In the Book of Don Quixote de la Mancha, a very ancient book they became very popular since then. Probably they were removed to avoid using a very "cliche" concept
this feels wrong to know all this but it’s so cool (excluding the stories of typlosion, octilliary, etc) to see what could’ve been with designs and all that. Good gideo
Man, I wish we got the cassowary in gen six. It looks unironically cool. I’m imagining a dark/fighting sweeper. (Maybe it was cut for overlapping pangoro?)
i actually liked the chibi look of BDSP, and the Gen 6 alpha looks even better than those dude years later. i think if they stuck with the chibi look it would have fit the aesthetics of 2D games and ppl would have loved the transition and it wouldn’t back them into a corner in terms of graphics since the chibi art is so easy to design & design around. what could have been 😢
4:11 they could've also just been testing that the code they made for evolution worked properly or the code for filling and completing the pokedex. Just a thought, since it looks like it was planned for one of the first gens.
9:46 - Aren't these screenshots from fangames rather than official builds? 17:23 - It's possible that this could be for a town in Southern Kalos, we never knew what that area had planned for it.
thank you a whole bunch for this video!! & if you have the type of mic for this- to avoid all those p-sounds & such, you can have the mic off to the side of your mouth- just a btdubs
Love the video hope for a part 2, But in the future I hope you can improve on the microphone, the air Ps and pops are very harsh on some parts of the audio.
Damn. All I want super super badly is a Map Editor for Gens 4 and 5. Its time that Fangames and Rom Hacks get upgraded to the Graphically best Generations of Pokemon.
I'm confused by something... So you can't play the music tracks for "obvious reasons" But you can document and compile screen shots of every other leak including videos? The law is kinda weird..lol😅
Imma keep it 100. Whoever wrote that Typhlosion story needs to be found brought to justice. We already cannot comfortably google image Gardevoir, Lucario, Lopunny, Salazzle, Incineroar, and the Evees. That list continues to expand. Both figuratively and at times literally. It's embarrassing to say I even like Pokémon with all this yucky stuff associated with it. Highest grossing franchise on the planet, and also the grossest.
15:45 I’m pretty sure those protagonists are supposed to be 14 or 15. The player characters aren’t 10 in any of the games I don’t think. That was just Ash in the anime. Even Red in the first game was 11

These are the same fools that are overly reliant on memorisation and rote learning instead of focusing on efficient methods of documentation and retrieval. Media literacy is indeed dying.
17:34 that's Dendemille Town
Was avoiding all the leaks until someone made a summary of everything so thank ya 🙌🏻
The early Metagross and Hydreigon designs look like they belong in Final Fantasy. Still cool, though.
As for the weird stories, others are saying they are writing exercises not meant for the game but Japan does seem to be more accepting of these kinds of stories than the West. Shinto mythology gets really weird, and non-Japanese don't have the cultural context so to them, "yeah, that checks out" but to us it just seems freaky.
Yeah and Japan is just doing oh so well aren't they? Inverted age demographic, no one has children, their porn is highly degrading and excessively toxic. Chikan is a thing there. "yeah, it checks out" alright.
3:52 should it be the baby version of proto arceus?
The funny thing about all those stories is that it was one person doing it and she was like a 43-year-old woman who worked for Game Freak at the time
A middle aged white woman writing stories like that?
Get her poor dog some therapy asap
Good thing her ideas didn't get through. Freak.
Hey actually, "she" doesn't exist. Someone on twitter went into extreme detail about the writer not being a real person and a lot of missed details from the stories leaked.
What's so funny about that? Disturbing movements have been created by women, like BLM. That movement was not funny at all.
She a freak... I'm into it
I love this video a ton! It really was quick and informative all at once, but entertaining nonetheless
As far as weird explicit canon, i think it derives from folklore as a whole. Japanese, greek, egyptian, natuve american, etc. Theyve got a lot of explicit stuff in folklore as a whole so i think gamefreak was going for that and it was meant to never go discovered
Like Diddy parties. Never meant to be discovered. :/
@@keiharris332 🤣🤣🤣
The attention around it just feels racist to me. People know it's folk lore, but because it's different from what they grew up with, it's bad
The weird stories are not canon. If it never showed up in the games, it's not canon. Even if it were on a gamefreak computer.
They’re still making games for children
@@Realone031 yeah, that's why those are not in the games. What's your point? Games are developed by adults, even if their targeted audience are childrens
4:57 didn't Ash s father have a Rapidash according to a Flashback OMG 😳
15:45 Gen 5(and 6) plyr characters are teens.
Didnt wanna take a look at series of videos just for the leaks. This is just what I needed lol.
Those leaks are so much cooler than the trash we get in the official games. Like the Reggies being egg shells of Arceus trying to k*ll him?! Thats kino as heck
Are we sure pokemon synapse wasn't that moba they released?
14:50 seeing gyarados in the same circle as legendarys and pseudo-legendarys brings me joy
That Metagross model looks like something out of Dragon Quest. I dig it.
We were robbed, I want my fabulous flamingo in heels!
"Typhlosions tragic tale of deception of a young woman"
Pokemon fandom: "How could he!?"
Also Pokemon fandom: "Vaporeon is the most breedable Pokemon".
Freak are freaks, whether Gamfreaks or Game freaks.
Somebody was tired of waiting for Tyranitar Tube lol
I find it crazy how long the devs waited to actually animate the sprites in B&W
Nintendo doesn’t develop Pokemon man
the gen 3 polar bear is the thing im most sad about not getting. It's literally a polar bear but it looks so cool.
Paldea is based in Spain. Windmills are a very Spanish thing. In the Book of Don Quixote de la Mancha, a very ancient book they became very popular since then. Probably they were removed to avoid using a very "cliche" concept
The Gaia one feels a bit off to me seeing as how there’s a fan game already with that exact name & it focuses around the Regi’s.
thanks for a concise covering of the leaks!
people misunderstanding folklore is wild.
I bet OP is a zoomer
So much racism and misogyny in those leaks. You would think people would've learned that 4chan is not a reliable source by now...
this feels wrong to know all this but it’s so cool (excluding the stories of typlosion, octilliary, etc) to see what could’ve been with designs and all that. Good gideo
Hawlucha looked fire
Great video !!! Tysm ❤
Man, I wish we got the cassowary in gen six. It looks unironically cool. I’m imagining a dark/fighting sweeper. (Maybe it was cut for overlapping pangoro?)
i actually liked the chibi look of BDSP, and the Gen 6 alpha looks even better than those dude years later. i think if they stuck with the chibi look it would have fit the aesthetics of 2D games and ppl would have loved the transition and it wouldn’t back them into a corner in terms of graphics since the chibi art is so easy to design & design around. what could have been 😢
Thank you for your service
Are we just going to ignore that “heatamor” has a colossal slong?
4:11 they could've also just been testing that the code they made for evolution worked properly or the code for filling and completing the pokedex. Just a thought, since it looks like it was planned for one of the first gens.
9:46 - Aren't these screenshots from fangames rather than official builds?
17:23 - It's possible that this could be for a town in Southern Kalos, we never knew what that area had planned for it.
So I noticed a codename for Sword and Shield it was like SWSHex maybe a new version of Sw and Sh but Noone is saying anything about it.
Pokemon Gaia with Regigigas as the legendary is a fan game...
Pokemon gaia with regigigas is an old pokemon rom hack, no way is it going to be gen 10 😂
X&Y concepts, we were robbed 😤
Flamingo pkmn beta design far superior to final version being so basic.
Anyone know where I can find the full leaked files?
I don't know how I missed all of this. I'm happy to learn all of this. Why didn't youtube recommend me this stuff. I had to learn this from Oddheader.
i'm really happy they found actual art of mega jynx, also klefki's older design looks better than what we got imo
thank you a whole bunch for this video!! & if you have the type of mic for this- to avoid all those p-sounds & such, you can have the mic off to the side of your mouth- just a btdubs
Thx for the tip 👍
17:05 What do you mean "unused"? It says Flamingo at the top and it explains the name as a combination of 'flame' and 'flamingo' underneath.
What if those text leaks is that ai translated as n tai because ai learns from patterns and its used yo translate n tai usually
Nobody gonna bring up that conceldur looks like a Simpsons character *12:06*
Is there à way to get the program to make the map for the pokemon emerald, ruby, saphire?
Love the video hope for a part 2, But in the future I hope you can improve on the microphone, the air Ps and pops are very harsh on some parts of the audio.
Not every starting trainer is 10 years old. GENS 5 6 were way older. Gen 3 was probably early teens.
NO MORE DEX CUT IN ALL THE FUTURE POKEMON GAMES!
This TH-cam video is to the point
Wait why are most of the scrapped pokemon sprites fire 11:55
Crazy that a pokemon created to be arceus(silvally),the god of pokemon,came out looking like giratina, regarded as the devil of pokemon.
Lockstin explains what they intended to use the stories for
"We have models of mega jynx."
Show them, then! 😂
Damn. All I want super super badly is a Map Editor for Gens 4 and 5.
Its time that Fangames and Rom Hacks get upgraded to the Graphically best Generations of Pokemon.
sure make an extended video with everything in detail
What’s crazy is there was just another big leak today
Adds a new meaning to Game"Freak"
the shadow pokemon balloon game leak was in the final game, it was the balloon training minigame. just no shadows.
the betas for simipour and simisear are pretty good. the simis are quite forgettable otherwise.
I never saw that nightmare fuel Hydregon sprite when looking at the leak.
They really put the Freak, in GameFreak.
Giratina almost got did dirty in that design faze
Talk about beauty December in pokemon black white 2
I'm confused by something...
So you can't play the music tracks for "obvious reasons"
But you can document and compile screen shots of every other leak including videos?
The law is kinda weird..lol😅
is draven one of the alternate names for brenden in pokemon ruby saphire and emerald..? or is it just coincidence we have the same name..
Imma keep it 100. Whoever wrote that Typhlosion story needs to be found brought to justice. We already cannot comfortably google image Gardevoir, Lucario, Lopunny, Salazzle, Incineroar, and the Evees. That list continues to expand. Both figuratively and at times literally. It's embarrassing to say I even like Pokémon with all this yucky stuff associated with it.
Highest grossing franchise on the planet, and also the grossest.
Welcome to videogame development, where people uses myths and old ghost stories as inspiration. All the time.
I like that he didn’t milk the sexual explicit stuff like the rest of the TH-camrs, earned my sub
The power plant/space station image is a space elevator, pretty sure.
15:45 I’m pretty sure those protagonists are supposed to be 14 or 15. The player characters aren’t 10 in any of the games I don’t think. That was just Ash in the anime. Even Red in the first game was 11
GameFreak really put here showing their freak and that "there are no laws against the Pokèmon, Batman."
Hacker has a name now hes a member of the strawhat pirates
Hi so i thought there's a leak of pokemon sc
16:48 Based on the information given in the image, I'd guess it would've been Fire/Flying type.
My theory is that both were concept regional birds for Kalos, while they ended up going with the Fletchling line.
Couldn't find confirmation that that's an early design of Hydreigon.
6:24 it's kinda weird how gamefreak talked about the shark fin soup? It's happening irl
thank you veteran trainer
But where tf is giratina?
