AAAAH! The new Satoshi Tajiri Manga New manga to reveal secrets of creation of Pokémon
features a sneak peek of al least 4 MissingNo.! Their ID numbers line up with the empty slots in RGBY labelled MissingNo.
56 "DEER" ディアー
62 "CROCKY" クロッキー
67 "CACTUS" カクタス
68 "JYAGGU" ジャッグ
We also have a confirmation that Blastoise's beta name was "Caravaggio" カラバジオ even in a later stage of development (It was already discovered in the 1990 Capsule Monsters documents, See the Ninja Turtle reference uh!)
These are the "voting" sheets for one of the popularity polls (人気投票)
Game Freak held periodically to rate their Pokémon designs.
This seems to be the infamous poll held in October 1992 when the majority of the crew surprisingly voted Exeggutor as their favourite, however, the second place (Chansey) doesn't match with the records
previously published in the book about GF history by Akihito Tomisawa about game freak's history [
"ゲームフリーク―遊びの世界標準を塗り替えるクリエイティブ集団" published by Media Factory, page 106-7
who reported Slowbro as a second place, so it could be a different poll. who reported Slowbro as a second place. (The sheet in the pic reports 1 - Exeggutor, 2 -Chansey, 3 - Clefairy).
There are other Pokemon just mentioned in the sheet on the left with the results, like 28 “BUU” ブー , 29 “BARUNDA (A)” バルンダ (A) (maybe PA*RUNDA, "Maikoo-OS" マイコー・オス is Nidoking’s beta name as we already know Pokémon Red and Blue/Internal Index Number - The Cutting Room Floor)
The one above Rhydon could very well be beta-Tyranitar, as its tail is very reminiscent of Tyranitar’s and its name “Gyaoon” ギャオーン is the official onomatopoeia for Godzilla’s roar in Japanese. This could further confirm that the placeholder Capsule Monster “Godzillante” was reworked into Tyranitar.
does anyone have the full page?
I’ll try and analyze those further, I'll add more info on the blog as I research
