I’ve got a few. Try to keep up
>Pokémon like Magnemite and Voltorb are descendants of Ditto trying to copy human environments. That’s why they can still breed with dittos despite being very inorganic
>The white rock outside Mossdeep City was meant to be part of a Jirachi event, but they scrapped it early on in development. The concept of interacting with a “stone” to catch a legendary would later shift to Deoxys on Birth Island
>Arcanine was originally a normal-type. Early on in development, it was considered part of the legendary bird group. It’s named “Windy” in Japanese, and wind-based moves in Red/Green like gust and razor wind were normal-type. Then, Arcanine got demoted later on in development and got changed to fire-type since there were so few in the game otherwise.
>The X and Y scrapped alien plot
>The guy who leaked the SpaceWorld Beta and the Capumon assets was that autistic guy who managed to hack Nintendo’s database
>Marill was supposed to get a split evolution line in Diamond and Pearl. That’s why Azuril has a different gender ratio than Marill or Azumarill
>Imposter Oak was Giovanni in disguise
>Delta Pokémon from the TCG were originally meant to be a new game mechanic in Ruby and Sapphire, but were scrapped in favor of abilities instead.
>MechaMew2 from the Pokémon Live show was actually based on the scrapped Pokémon Omegah
