Spoiler: Scrapped alternate Shellder evolution(?)

Honestly this should be a real thing. I've always wondered why the Shellder on Slowpoke's tail/head looked like this instead of like, well, Shellder or a small Cloyster.
Spoiler: Beta Tyrogue and Hitmontop

I like beta Tyrogue but I love Hitmontop's final design more.
Spoiler: Beta Miltank

It doesn't look too different from final Miltank.

Spoiler: Beta Delibird

And I thought final Delibird looked like Santa!
Spoiler: Beta Murkrow

I like Murkrow's final design but I love this so much!
Spoiler: Beta Blissey

So cute!! When I look at this design, I just think 'Happinas'.
Spoiler: Beta Scizor

I like that it's the same color as Scyther but I think the shiny red suits it more.
Spoiler: Scrapped Ice Pokémon line

(Known as "Wolfman" and "Warwolf" respectively, BTW.)
Interesting.
Spoiler: Beta Kingdra

Kingdra's one of my most favorite Pokemon ever and a big reason I love it is because of the deer antlers on it's head so I like the final design a lot more.
Spoiler: Beta Sneasel

IT'S ADORABLE!!!! AWW!! (Also it kind of reminds me of Mienshao)
I don't remember if I saw this one but it's so cute!!
 
Am I the only one who thinks that the move Curse was originally designed to be this thing's signature move, explaining the nail/pin in the move's animation?
It doesn't look too different from final Miltank.
It's a bit fatter than the final design, but otherwise, yeah. Not too different.

Okay! Now it's time for the entire beta Johto Pokédex, in in-game order!

And here's the same, just in video form with types and Sugimori-style artwork by Rachel Briggs.

Apparently, it indeed was supposed to be its signature move. Notably, its learnset data implies that Curse was a 'secret special' move for it, because it doesn't learn it until level 99, and it was programmed so that it attempts to evolve into Kyonpan starting level 2 of all things.

It could also be that those numbers were just put in as placeholders and that it was supposed to evolve later and learn the move earlier.
 
Now you're a Dragon/Psychic type!

How does it feel to be WEAK TO BUG
