    I've always assumed that GameFreak has two methods for creating cries:
    • Recording certain sounds (like a xylophone for Kricketot) which are then modified through a computer program.
    • Using a computer program to create the cry itself (Porygon, for example).

  • I always thought that most cries were random noise composed with a computer program. As for the ones like Delcatty and Starly, they probable took some existing sounds, edited them a bit, and simply threw them in.

  • From a programming prospective, these sounds are 8-bit .WAV files, so it wouldn't be THAT hard to compose them on a computer program (come on, a synth and sequencing program should be enough), especially ones that Nintendo should give out to prospective game designers.

    Probably synthetic noises made on a computer program... the old ones, at least.
