  • I'm clearly gonnna be hit on this, but the whole Leaf vs Green debate is a topic on its own. I don't feel neither neither side truly has enough evidence to say otherwise, but it seems that unlike Lyra and Kris who did appear in the same game (Pokemon Masters), Leaf and Green don't ever appear at the same time, so thus it can be speculated that they are the same actually but depending on developers or marketers, they are called by one name or the other. Personally I feel they are meant to be the same as they both are based on the original unused female trainer of Gen 1, Leaf using Pokemon that Green would have in Let's Go, and even her design in Let's go heavily resembling that of Leaf including her hair and bag. Let alone the dress just being a reverse colouring of what she wore in FRLG. That's my personal opinion at least, but again no definitive proof like Kris and Lyra to truly give one side the win here and i'm not here to debate this. Just here to present the cut content of this game today.
  • GameFreak continues to troll us with the Prof fight. I wish they did more stuff with the wireless link cable
  • @bullzeye399
    The Rapidash logo for the Seagallop makes a lot of sense since Rapidash's japanese name is literally "Gallop".
  • @bellaeon5646
    12:34 Okay, I didn't know that despite knowing that there's almost 100 trainers in FRLG that share the exact same names with trainers from RSE in both English and Japanese. Interesting!
  • A few of these i knew about, but i still really enjoy watching other youtubers talking about the cut content. Its always so fascinating.
  • @__4762
    The FRLG e-Reader content wasn't cancelled. It released, as did the Emerald e-cards, but only in Japan. Ut was only scrapped for the international releases
  • The fact that there's sprites of Red and Blue with their original outfits implies that Game Freak might not have intended to update everyone's designs originally. On that point, I believe that there's Pokegear icons in HGSS that have the older hat for Ethan, as well as an unused set for Kris.
  • @MLmaster135
    the one thing I always found so weird about Gen 1's two remakes, for both Gen 3's version, and the lets go series, is why they never remade Team Rocket's battle theme for both of those games- like that's legit the most missed opportunity in existence. it deff makes Team Rocket somewhat more bland to fight against because they never had their Gen 2/4 battle theme remade for the gen 1 remakes🤔
  • @Venemofthe888
    I wonder if the cut sevii island maps were going to have more on them if they were kept but perhaps were named as such cause while not a full island they might have important things planned on them. Trainer tower could have been its own island. Also fun fact if you do a randomiser of these games and randomise tms you can see the unused bug tm icon
  • @jarg_64
    12:11 you can catch shuckle AND shuckle there? Man you never see those 2 Pokémon together. Obv haha just an oversight on his part of the script
  • Never stop making videos,i recently discovered the channel and i am officially addicted.
  • @Elfman126
    Yay, my favourite Pokémon games finally got covered here! I absolutely loved this video ObsessiveGamer. It was so interesting to know more about these games development cycles that I didn't know before.
  • @ender7278
    Thank you so much for correctly identifying Green and Leaf as the same character. It drives me up the wall when people insist they're different.
  • @adcroc1954
    Ok so the reason why leaf and green are not the same characters but more like just mirror versions of each other is because in Japanese Green is named Blue and who we know as Blue is named Green so they probably didn’t want it to be confusing with the Japanese audience
  • @fws91
    They are cats. Enter lion, suiting leopard, taiko sabertooth tiger…
  • The sevii isles are some of the best locations in pokémon. They didn't need to add them but they went above and beyond and added 7 entirely new locations. And the music is so good. Wish there was more johto music to distinct it but it's great
  • @weebsquit347
    I didn't know Professor Oak was planned to be a trainer battle in this game too. I think they've been playing around with that idea for a long time now. We got teased with a Professor Oak battle in Pokemon Let's Go. For a moment it felt like he was going to be the Champion you faced against on the Pokemon league, but unfortunately not.
