>>35747615>no reason a finalized design isn't in thereWhat is "wasn't programmed yet"? "Still in the artistic design stages"? "Ever-changing beta status means things cycled in and out as they were tested"?
I also notice that you actually presented no evidence that these pokemon were "basically finished" so my guess is you're basing your assumption of completion on the fact that they had art in a magazine.
I guess that means staryu was already sprited and programmed at the time of this art, and blastoise was well on its way to completion too?
