I like it, fits the palidrome theme even if it's not as cute. Wouldn't mind if they reused the symmetrical two-headed concept in some other way. I kind of wish Girafarig would get an evolution where its tail is starting to grow into a full giraffe head.

it pisses me off looking at this that they decided to go with the retarded looking back sprites that were in the final product

What's the problem with the backsprites? Are you talking about the full body in this pic?
It looks like it would work well for small Pokemon like Chikorita, but it wouldn't work well for big Pokemon, they probably wanted to preserve the sense of "perspective" that your Pokemon was closer to you, while the enemy was a bit far in the other side.

Is there any reason given for why they decided to make the battles look the way they did? Did they ever mention if they wanted to depict the battles in the same way but maybe reversed? Where Chika is on the bottom right side and Girafarig on the top left?

I think it should have stayed Girafarig's design. Shit is far better looking than the sharp-tooth bomb thing we ended up with.

I disagree Girafarig's design is fine. That prototype design looks like something a troll on 4chan would make.

I wouldn't say the final design is bad, but I think that design is superior and I want to train it.

It reminds me of CatDog. I think it is awful. Glad they changed it.

It makes me want to see what other Pokemon went through design revisions like this.

Like, what did their original version of Pikachu look like? Behind the scenes stuff is always interesting to me.

I think it's fun to think about how Ho-oh was originally the main legendary of Gold/Silver, and Lugia was made as a request for the movie (and then put in the game), would Ho-oh be in the two covers? Or we would get two starters in the covers like in gen 1? Would this change influence Masuda in the followings gens, so we still would get starters in the covers to this day? Would this also affect the story, since we wouldn't have the duo of main legends every gen?
It must be this way in some alternate dimension.

And that's why they ended up changing Girafarig's design. Nintendo didn't want Nickelodeon suing them for ripping off CatDog's design.

I don't think it would be even remotely possible without being specifically a cat and a dog, and even then they could get away depending of how different it was.
They probably had other reasons... Like thinking that the design was unconventional (legs would work in a weird way).

I didn't know Lugia was added later. Funny, since it's clearly the more iconic monster. Yeah, maybe Typhlosion and Feraligatr could have been the box mascots. Or something random like Steelix as the Silver mascot. I don't know who else would've fit as an alternate Gold mascot, maybe Entei or Ampharos?

What? How? Ho-oh is a lot more magnificent and even appeared in the first episode of the anime.

There's debate about this. One source claims that Lugia is an anime invention added to the games later, while another claims that Lugia was made first for the games and when the anime team requested a cool new monster for the movie, GF handed them Lugia.

I don't know which one's the truth.
