    Evidence of cut Pokemon has recently been discovered within the game code of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, giving us a glimpse at Pokemon that were planned for the games, but didn't make the final cut. In today's video, we are going to take a look at these cut Pokemon, why they might have been cut, and most importantly, who they actually are!

    The name "Numerados" could also work in Japanese, since "nume nume" is the Japanese onomatopoeia (sound effect word) for the sound of moving through something sticky or slimy, such as mud, essentially being the Japanese equivalent of something like "squelch squelch" or "squish squish".
    So a Ground-type Pokémon that looks very similar to Gyarados and "swims" in mud like how Gyarados swims in water could wind up having the name "Numerados".

    The reason why "Hill-Karp" and "Hill-Gyarados" are cut is pretty solid in this video I must say. It is indeed a bit difficult to pull off the same concept of them but on the land.
    And since GameFreak even got artist block on Mega Flygon, I wouldn't blame them for having this issue on them either.
    Wiglett and Toadscool however really made a good job pulling off the concept, Wiglett being the same meme creature as diglett but being a garden eel rather than a mole
    Toadscool was a wordplay in Japanese, where a kind of fungus that grows on Tree is called "Tree jellyfish". So they made Toadscool a fungus Pokemon.
    And Boy how I love Toadscool running around with its... legs? I assume it's made of mycelium, which resembles tentacool's tentacles.

    My theory is that they may have wanted to save the gyrados redesign for a region they thought would fit better.

That or instead of a convergent form maybe they decided a regional form would be better instead or what ever gimmick forms are like paradox pokemon.

  • @ShayTheValiant

    I personally think the convergent Magikarp and Gyarados were cut from the main game so they could be added in with DLC.

    • @ZombieBarioth
      @ZombieBarioth Před rokem +3

      Could be, but its probably the other way around. All of them had to be in development but only Toedscool and Toedscrul got to a point where they were satisfied, so the decision to swap them would most likely have been made to give them more time to work on Magikarp and Gyarados.
      If that's the case Tentacool, Tentacruel, and their counterparts may have originally been meant for the DLC instead, which if true means the former could come with it as well.

    Gyarados is based on a Japanese koi wind sock. I forget what they're called. You could have leaned heavily into Gyarados' flying type and maybe give it a second non-water type. Dragon? But make it a kite? Then work backwards to make Magikarp's convergent design.

    the fire type for a convergent line of magikarp would be so cool imo. maybe make a flying fish inspired design for magikarp, but instead of inhabiting water, they inhabit lava. and then for the gyarados evolution, make it into a fire/rock type (yknow bc when lava cools it hardens)
    a name for the magikarp regional fake could be magmikarp (obviously from the word magma + magikarp), and the one for gyarados could be gabbrados (from a type of igneous rock called gabbro + gyarados)

  • @robxholicfoxyfan8552
    @robxholicfoxyfan8552 Před rokem +1

    Other ideas for Magikarp and Gyarados are Mudskippers and Lungfish, both land fish. Mudkip isn't an Axolotl, he's a Mudskipper, which is a beach fish that blows bubbles and use their fins to sloppily move about on land. Lungfish hibernate essentially when rivers dry up, and can survive on land for a while. The cool thing about Pokemon is you can stretch reality to make either fit into a role they aren't normally in. One idea for the snake thing though is a relationship with Dunsparce, like Tsuchinoko is a short, fat snake. They would look more like Gyarados and Magikarp, but would be related to Dunsparce, and maybe have stuff like glare and coil like any other snake Pokemon basically.

  • @ZeoViolet
    @ZeoViolet Před rokem +1

    Magikarp and Gyarados were probably cut due to someone realizing that a land variation that looked exactly like its water counterpart (and just palette swapped) wasn't logical to getting around on terra firma. I pictured the fish walking upside-down on some very strong whiskers! XD

    for the Magikarp, I would make it look like a flatfish (like stunfisk but more like it's real life counterpart). I think part of what make these convergent Pokémon a thing is that at first glance they look like a regnal variant but you can tell they're not if you look a little closer (wiglit having a neck and toedscoll having legs), so you might also want to edit the deign of your Gyarados (or at least it's pose)

    I'd have loved to see a variant of magikarp (now solid brow and dripping in mud) trying to use its fins as useless arms, dragging its body around and just being a pure ground type that still only knows splash because it just splashes about in the muk. When it evolves, Gyarados actually grows arms! Like an ancient Chinese dragon Gyarados is based on, long powerful arms but still retaining the snake body and perhaps growing a beard and remaining pure ground type just to be the opposite of its once flying type.
    Can't wait for more videos!

    I mean its kinda easy. In the past, these two pokemon were found in a lake/sea bed that after a time became more and more surrounded by land AKA mountains started to form as the water was being drained like how you can find fossils of sea animals in deserts & mountains that would be too far from the sea.
    The Magikarp and Gyarados had to adapt to the land around them more. Gyarados was already part flying so it could handle being on land but less water forced it to develop lungs and Magikarp had to create something like a breathing sack like mudskippers do.
    So a Water/Ground and Ground/Flying type could work for them

    Admittedly I expected more than one line in the video, but I really like what you did with the convergent line for Magikarp and Gyarados. Gyarados is definitely the better of the two because it has more of a logical basis behind it (which is to be expected), but overall there’s a lot of creativity in the design and names. Bravo.

    Just a warning for anyone just now watching, it's a 12:43 minute video about Magikarp and Gyarados, no other cut Pokemon are discussed.

    In my fan region, I’m making a regional magikarp/gyrados that’s a sandworm. Could’ve used that and made Magikarp be more elongated but still have the fins and whiskers.

    I feel like a flying/dragon would have fit the two better. Gyarados was done dirty by not being a dragon type...

    I definitely understand why they scrapped it. Still a shame but I did think of this idea of a Magikarp convergent line that’d go from one snake to another. Similar to how you thought of a convergent based off snakes.
    * The Magikarp convergent would be based of a tsuchinoko. Perhaps design wise they could turn the face on the side and have an odd growth to have it’d still resemble a Magikarp.
    * The Gyarados variant could be based off an Anaconda (Possibly be called Gyaraboa)

    I could see these guys coming in the dlc. Who knows, maybe they'll even give the convergent Magikarp the code name "OkaMenokurage" or something as a joke! Maybe even some more convergent mons like "Truleewoodo" who's an actual tree unlike sudowoodo, and a convergent Krabby based on Carcinization!

    You could've just had a bird that looks like a magikarp in the sky's. And a gyarados based off of the quetzalcoatl. Water digglett and land tentacool doesn't have to be the limit.

  • @Chips_05

    My first thought when I found out the internal name was referring to gyarados I pictured them keeping the goofy legs and ending up with a trogdor gyarados

    really i dont think magikarp and gyarados' iconicity has anything to do with it because jigglypuff got a paradox form and its just as well known

  • @kazeitachi3367
    @kazeitachi3367 Před rokem +1

    I agree 💯. I checked Oka possible meanings since the names are Okakingu and Okagyarados which it seems it literally means Land/Shore Magikarp and Land/Shore Gyarados.
    Though my idea for them is maybe give Magikarp a Mudskipper (I know mudskip exist but it's just my crazy idea) looking body
    While give Gyarados a more Eastern Dragon looking form (including the 4 legs).

  • @kksmith2282
    @kksmith2282 Před rokem +6

    I feel like the solution on how to adapt them outside water is pretty easy - make them flying type. I know Gyarados is already flying type but if anything maybe it's a trait both forms retained from their common ancestry. The fins become wings, the scales become feathers. Gyarados ends up looking more like Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent God of the Aztecs.

    • @soppressore8215
      @soppressore8215 Před rokem +1

      If they have a common ancestor, wouldn't be more similar to cetoddle and wailmer? It wouldn't be a convergent evolution any more

    • @craigearle-cliffe1877
      @craigearle-cliffe1877 Před rokem +1

      They wouldnt have common ancestors thats the entire point of them being convergent species they’re not related at all

  • @IOwnKazakhstan
    @IOwnKazakhstan Před rokem +1

    This is an interesting video however a common mistake I see is that people will find code with different names etc and then assume that it must have gotten super far into development before being scrapped which just isn't really true. What happens some times is that things like pokemon are made and pretty quickly heavily integrated into the game but without models or really any meaningful info, for all of that to be added way later down the line, and then after that, changing the code name could potentially take quite a while and be practically useless aside from helping the devs remember what its name was. So no, it doesn't mean it was a super fleshed out concept.
    Also I'm not really following your whole 'it's too hard to change" because you said diglett was changed into wiglett by moving it to the water which would be a valid argument but the pokemon has literally nothing about it that visibly says "water type" and it doesn't even go in the water it goes on the beach. You said it would be hard to make a fish move on land right after showing a jellyfish moving on land. And also you assume that they would make it on land, they could easily make it go into the sky, magicarp has semi-wing looking things and apart from a few rare instances (like arceus) we don't really get to see gyarados's flying abilities much. Or they could make it ghost type and just float like other pkmn.
    I really don't wanna be a debby downer and so negative but I'm not really understanding any parts to this video other than the theory that they're too sacred.

  • @ninomitchell2039
    @ninomitchell2039 Před rokem

    Just a thought. Mimikarp could've had stubby legs that converged with magikarps lower fin that disappear/shrink upon evolution to show what your saying with the snake look-alike concept.

  • @emerl2002
    @emerl2002 Před rokem

    My guess on not-Magikarp and not-Gyarados is that they would have been electric and then electric/ice.
    Reasoning:
    Diglett/Dugtrio: ground
    Wiglett/Wugtrio: water
    Water -> Ground
    Tentacool/Tentacruel: water/poison
    Toedscool/Toedscruel: grass/ground
    Grass -> water
    Ground -> poison
    The conversion forms always have (up to this point) the perfect type matchup against the original.
    Making Not-Magikarp electric and Not-Gyarados electric/ice makes sense due to:
    electric -> water
    Ice -> flying
    Additionally, it makes sense that these two were planned originally, since we have both Diglett and Wiglett and their evolutions in the game, but we only have Toedscool and Toedscruel, without Tentacool and Tentacruel being in Paldea.
    Magikarp and Gyarados however, ARE in Paldea, which makes sense in the counterpart aspect of conversion Pokèmon.

  • @SarahsSnakeShop

    I think magicarp would be good as like a mudskipper pokemon, and evolve into a big salamander looking thing. But I do love the gyrados you made - snakes are my favorite

  • @keksidy
    @keksidy Před rokem

    I think Magikarp could work if you base it off of the Phylliroe, a type of sea slug that has developed an extremely similar body plan to fish, and then maybe the Gyarados could become a kraken/mimic octopus hybrid. They're both aquatic, but this family of slugs is a really cool example of convergent evolution so I think it'd still work in the end

  • @HaxHaunter

    another theory is that Magikarp could very well be saved for a DLC content, either as convergent or even a Paradox considering Magikarp's lore in the dex.
