>>37499740Please list those reasons. I'd love to hear them. I'd love to believe that it's true, but I'm very doubtful at this point.
>Most of the cut Pokemon that made it in the game shouldn't have even made it to sprite form if they were going to be removed from existence anyways. It was a massive pain in the ass to create sprites then, so it'd just be a waste of effort to not finalize the Pokedex and put in the pain-staking effort to draw those Pokemon, give their movesets, types, stats, location, etc.>None of the cut Pokemon were referenced in any way, shape, or form in any later Pokemon releases. A good portion of them were redesigned, sure, but others like fire seal, Pinsir evolution, twin ghosts, that ice wolf ball thing, etc. You could argue the Pinsir evolution is Mega Evolution, but the others just don't seem plausible if they've been completely annihilated from existence and forbidden to ever be mentioned again>The fact it even exists in the first place. It's said that it's from Space World, but why the hell would Space World still be keeping it? Why would Game Freak be giving the rom to anybody? Let alone letting it out from some hard drive from nearly 20 years ago. Who the hell released it in the first place? Can't be some Nintendo/Game Freak employee otherwise they'd find out almost immediately and shove lawsuits up their ass. Unless there's some information on where it came from, then the legitimacy of the hack is questioned. Even other made up shit like the Grinch Leak had an origin to it.
