what ultimately became the swan song of rare's nintendo days before microsoft swiped them right after this ultimately was hastily retooled for the gamecube and launched in the form of star fox adventures, 2 years after this build's date, this one appears to be a late build already well in the transition into the star fox franchise, indicating that the transition started earlier than most thought

- the xatu line was originally a 3-stage!
- what's this little black guy supposed to be? living cave painting? (update : kokopelli, bit of a bizarre subject to have a pokemon of - this thing would've fitted in well with other "tribal/ancient" themed pokemon like xatu and sigilyph)
- snake with eyebrows
- another fox lost to the cutting room? or progenitor to fennekin/thievul?
- this looks like a 4-stage line, or branch evo line of a scrapped grass-type - they might've been playing with the idea of 4-stage lines here
[update : good lord! the 2nd sprite here might actually be a surviving sprite of pikachu's earliest progenitor ; a daifuku with ears!]
- a scrapped elephant, copperajah progenitor or a revival of that scrapped gen I elephant?
- a kiwi, we don't have one of those yet (doduo comes close, but still)
- scorpion, proto-gligar? some say it's a homage to a facehugger
- quail?
- another bird? fancy-ish design
- looks like a variant of the scrapped qwilfish evo
- a thing with antlers and tusks...a wild boar? supposedly might've inspired swinub/piloswine later
- this little dog guy was probably a smeargle prevo
- typical japanese ghost design
- there's kotora again
- seems stantler was a fresh concept in this build
- elebaby and elekid together? seems the electabuzz line was going to be 3-staged
- here's a new one...bootleg lapras? some say it could've been a viking ship-based proto-lugia, whom would be ho-oh's counterpart of the sea
- this wolf-thing looked like it'd pass as a side legendary
- what is this grinning freak
- snake, proto-dunsparce?
- some flower-bird?
- this monster was probably a good jumper
- turns out they planned to rip the sunfish out of the ankorage->grotesk evo line and give it a 3-stage sunfish line of its own
- what is this thing and why does it have a messenger bag? actually some suggest its a ninja sugar glider and the "bag" is a katana in sheath
- proto-cyndaquil before they made it the fire starter - it looked more like a hedgehog here
- this looks like the prevo of the scrapped fox early on, or a proto-furret
- a fucking stork!? we could've had a stork pokemon!?
- drill squid, maybe this was a short-lived rebirth of a scrapped gen I squid pokemon?
- this looks like proto-burmy and mothim
- komala's progenitor! they wanted a damn koala since gen II!
- tanuki!? and we still don't have one yet! this one appears to be based on kachi-kachi yama, a japanese folktale that involved a rabbit setting a tanuki's backload of kindling on fire
- nootnoot bird
- fireball seal at least got a redrawn sprite before getting cut
- this frog thing
- this freak with weird hair and half-black body
- skeleton beast
- pols voice, the pokemon that never was
- some fly
- one eyed plant thing
- another bug
- this thing looks like a calyrex progenitor or was going to be some kind of grass type
[update : some suggest this might've been the "dolly the clone sheep" design]
- ugly sunshine cherrim progenitor or a pathetic attempt as a cherry blossom pokemon they couldn't get right
- tsuchinoko, likely proto-dunsparce and/or the evo of the snake early on in the sheet
- an armored water-type with a clubbed tail that probably scrapped with lapras
- a literal flying fish-bird?
- an alternate ampharos sprite
- gloom was going to be depicted as just having itself a shit in battle!?

except you'll have to buy a successor to a second-gen console to play it

http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/05/a_new_earthworm_jim_is_coming_but_theres_a_rather_large_catch

all after
- a clayfighter cameo
- 2 shitty outsourced entries, 3D and M2TG
- 2 severely mishandled GBA ports, again outsourced to no-talents
- an aborted PSP entry that looked like it really was coming along
- an HD remake, again outsourced
- a cameo in a failed attempt to reboot boogerman

can things come together again in the next decade to bring the old worm back to glory

it somehow worked for fucking bubsy

Pokémon / early gen I prototype assets leak

- prototype "PM" title screen featuring proto-rhydon
- capsule monsters title screen
- lost trainer classes
-- the silph chief design has survived as blaine's current design! whereas a sprite for blaine's original "army man" design as originally depicted in concept art is present in this prototype

- many of the back sprites for scrapped pokemon seen in the tajiri manga are present!
-- "balloonda"
-- "deer"
-- an elephant
-- "crocky"
-- this one has a spiral shell and tentacles
-- "cactus"
-- "jagg" the harpoon shark
-- scrapped bat, it seems zubat was originally 3-stage
-- two other scrapped pokemon after krabby; moveset data suggests they seem to be based on bettas and could've been water/fighting
-- mikon, puchicorn, konya, and gyopin were all concepted and considered for gen I, and were considered for a re-intro for gen II as prevos
-- two scrapped mons between raichu and dratini
-- the evo data was yet to exist in this build, but evidently cubone was a 3-stage! the scrapped marowak evo has its offspring in its arms
-- the one we all want to see...gorochu!! it's right there before charmander...if only we could have its official front sprite
the (1) horn and raijin basis (it appears to be holding its tail over its shoulders like how most depictions of raijin hold a ribbon strip) as described in the creator profile interview all are here...
-- the kotora line was concepted in gen I, and was originally 3-stage; the third stage was cut when considered for gen II before disappearing
-- blastoise was either standalone originally, or of a potential 2-stage line; a scrapped pokemon were to evolve into it instead (it seems this data wasn't in place yet), and was unrelated to the squirtle line : the final stage for squirtle was originally more in line with wartortle
-- the psyduck line was originally 3-stage; psyduck was to evolve into a scrapped middle member and then to golduck
-- it seems the magnemite line began as a 3-stage; the evolution data seems to have not been added at the time of the prototype, but after cloyster in the spritesheet is a scrapped pokemon resembling magneton, but the 2 lower units lack magnets and head screws
-- a scrapped pokemon, supposedly called "boo/buu", was to stand between magmar and electabuzz, which both have "boo" in their japanese names; as it turns out, the folks at gamefreak are die-hard kaiju and tokusatsu maniacs, and this lost pokemon is claimed to be a homage to the yeti kaiju "woo" of ultraman fame...whether it had any relation to jynx, whom is also present in this prototype, remains to be answered
