New leaks from the early days of Pokemon began to surface earlier today after files from the Gen 2 era circulated online. Beta designs for all sorts of creatures have been shown off with a ton of different sprites.
It seems that the latest Pokemon leaks are just beginning. Since our previous post went live, fans have continued to decompile assets and have found even more sprites.

The Pokemon Company apologizes for including Pokemon not available in Sword/Shield in latest Twilight Wings episode
Posted on 2 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Switch | 0 comments
The Pokemon Company kicked off Pokemon: Twilight Wings earlier this year. The animated mini-series is designed to give fans more insight into the Galar region and is based around Pokemon Sword/Shield.
In the latest episode, Early-Evening Waves, fans noticed that Pokemon like Dewgong appeared despite not being available in the actual games. That prompted The Pokemon Company to issue an apology on its Japanese Twitter page today. The message was primarily aimed at those who may have felt mislead in any way.
Pokemon: Twilight Wings still has three more episodes to air. Previous episodes can be found here, here, here, and here.

Rumor: Pokemon Yellow source code leak references scrapped Pokemon Pink, audio files for anime cries
Posted on 2 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Rumors | 0 comments
If the latest reports are to be believed, there may have been plans at one point to create a companion game for Pokemon Yellow. Source code for the series’ original games have appeared online, and in the header of Pokemon Yellow, there’s a reference to “Pocket Monsters Pink and Yellow”. The code also has other references to a potential Pink version as well.
The thought here is that Pokemon Pink, had it actually released, could have starred Clefairy or Jigglypuff. Of course, that’s just speculation.
