Earlier this year, we got a look at many scrapped Pokemon designs after a 1997 Pokemon Gold demo leaked online. Several months later, we have even more designs that were never used.

Japanese TV channel NHK recently aired a program that showed off a number of Pokemon, including ones that have never appeared in-game. We can see the likes of Lapras and Blastoise, a very-different Scyther, and even the original concept for Gengar and Rhyhorn that fight in the opening credits of Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow.

Below are the new images:

A slight update on the Pokemon movie front: Pokemon the Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution’s opening day in Japanese theaters will be July 12th, 2019. Unfortunately, that’s pretty much all the information we have on the movie right now. Given its title, we can infer that Mewtwo will have a starrring role, but so far we have no official synopsis and no trailer yet.

There’s also no word yet on the movie’s international release. The past couple of Pokemon movies got a limited theatrical run in some countries before being released on home media and streaming services.
