Mid-Late 2002
Final
Rakurakuda
ラクラクダ
??? Donkī
ドンキィ

Its earlier designs feature eyelashes, with the earliest featuring whiskers. The blue ovals on its side were made more symmetrical over time. The hair tuft on its head originally had two strands instead of three.

#301 Pelipper

November 2001
March 2002
Final
Perikyan
ペリキャン
Pelicargo
ペリカーゴ
Pelipper
ペリッパー

It appears to have been based on a bandit, with its bill wrapping around the back of its neck and ending in what resembles a knot. It also appears to lack feet at this point. Its design from March has a nub on its back that was removed from the final.

#302 Nuzleaf

November 2001
2002
Final
Yamanonushi
ヤマノヌシ
Tanebirū
タネビルー
Konohana
コノハナ

Its early design is far more tengu-like, having a longer nose, feet resembling geta sandals, and a redder body. These features may have later served as inspiration for Shiftry. Its back sprite appears to be of a slightly different design, as evidenced by the color of its head, as well as the spikes on the sides of its face pointing forward rather than backward.

#303

Boyatto
ボヤット

An Ice-type yeti-like Pokémon that was cut from the final game. It appears to have a mouth with sharp teeth on its outstretched foot.

#304


ビィ

An insect Pokémon that was cut from the final game. It was replaced by Wingull, though based on leftover data it is known to have had Compoundeyes as its Ability.

#305

Revision 1
Revision 2
Tottā
トッター
Kurobosshi
クロボッシ

A cut Rock-type Pokémon that enjoyed polishing its body using leaves. It evolved into Claydol.

#306 Azurill

November 2001
Final
Ruriri
ルリリ

One of the first three Generation 3 Pokémon shown to the public in March 2001. It had the alternate names of Riruru (リルル) and Marumari (マルマリ) in copyright materials from January 2001.

#307 Kecleon

November 2001
Final
Kakureon
カクレオン

One of the first three Generation 3 Pokémon shown to the public in March 2001. It had the alternate name of Reoreon (レオレオン) in copyright material from January 2001.

#308 Wailmer

November 2001
Final
Hoeruko
ホエルコ

One of the first three Generation 3 Pokémon shown to the public in March 2001.

#309 Lombre

November 2001
Final
Kuwappa
クワッパ
Hasubrero
ハスブレロ

As its early name suggests, it was much more clearly based on a kappa, featuring a shell on its back and a more typical dish on its head. Its lips were blue rather than red.

#310 Seedot

November 2001
Final
Komaru
コマル
Taneboh
タネボー

Originally had a different, yet familiar design to the final. It was red with three stripes on its underside, wearing an army helmet. Its feet appear to have toes, unlike the final. Additionally, it holds a sprig of a plant in its mouth. The rings underneath its eyes seem to have carried over to the final.

#311 Surskit

November 2001
Final
Amebotta
アメボッタ
Ametama
アメタマ

It is remarkably similar to the final design. The primary difference is its short, segmented legs. Notably, its sprites were finalized as early as March 2002. This is why it is one of few Pokémon in the final game to feature no black outlines, as all sprites from the Pokémon AGB stage of development did so.

#312 Masquerain

November 2001
2002
Final
Mimime
ミミメ
??? Amemoth
アメモース

Similar in concept to the final design, but different in execution. While it features the false eyes on its wings that the final does, it also has a smiley face positioned inside of an eye shaped pattern on its body. This correlates much more strongly with Masquerain's Pokedex category of Eyeball. Its design from 2002 features brighter colors for its wings, though lacks the markings seen in the final.

#313 Sableye

November 2001
Early 2002
c. March 2002
Final
Gyorori
ギョロリ
Yamirami
ヤミラミ

The earliest design bears a striking resemblance to Mega Sableye, created 13 years later for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.

#314 Sharpedo

November 2001
March 2002
Final
Sukāku
スカーク
Sharken
シャーケン
Samehader
サメハダー

Originally had a dark body with teal highlights (which would go on to become its main color), and featured a tail! Despite the apparent major differences, hallmarks of the final design are already present, such as the notches in its dorsal fin and possessing two markings near its eyes. Its next sprite is near-finalized, save for its yellow markings being smaller.

#315 Claydol

November 2001
Final
Dobūkai
ドブウカイ
Nendoll
ネンドール

Its type was Psychic/Rock rather than Ground/Psychic. Its body appears to feature cracks that are absent from the final. Notably, its sprites were finalized as early as March 2002. This is why it is one of few Pokémon in the final game to feature no black outlines, as all sprites from the Pokémon AGB stage of development did so. It was named Syakoudo (シャコウド) in March 2002.

#316

Toroīka
トロイーカ

A squid Pokémon that was cut from the final game. It appears to have a mouth near the top of its body, whereas real squids have beaks on their undersides.

March 2002
