Article: New data leak reveals scrapped Pokémon Pink and revisions

[Soaring Sid]

Generation 1 again, but here's some info about the newly released leaks. Pokémon Pink was supposed to exist.

It's funny cause there IS a pokemon pink romhack (same with Pokemon Z, but that's "just" a pokemon and DBZ crossover)

 

[Nah]

I wonder why they scrapped Pink and just went with Yellow?

We'll probably never know though

 

[Palamon]

It is true that Clefairy was planned to be the mascot before Pikachu was, so I wonder if Pokemon Pink was gonna attempt to experiment with that? Ah, well, we'll most likely never get to know.

pokémon pink would've been so awesome for me ;_; interesting to hear that anime voice clips were planned!

 

[Roni]

Didn't even know that Clefairy was supposed to be the original mascot. Honestly I don't think they'd have gotten that far & famous if that pushed through. I mean, it's cute and all, but Pikachu is cuter and looks tough at the same time. It could appeal simultaneously to both boys and girls.

Also let's be honest, Red with a Clefairy as his main? C'mon now.

Imagine playing a whole Pokemon game with cries even worse than some of the original sound files....

I've always loved how years later, content is still being found.
