Development:Pokémon Gold and Silver/Miscellaneous Findings

This is a sub-page of Development:Pokémon Gold and Silver.

To do: Anything more than sounds?

Sounds

Early New Bark Town

This version of the New Bark Town music appears to be what it originally was before Go Ichinose's rearrangement. Despite the Generation 1 style of music, it appears to be from a later development stage (March 1, 1999).

Early Title Screen

An earlier version of the title screen music, dated July 30, 1999. The final version of the title music, however, is dated the same day as the SpaceWorld 1999 build (August 17, 1999).

Flags

To do: Determine what the untranslated letters stand for and add descriptions for each flag.

The Korean source code was nice enough to provide two flag lists from the Spaceworld '97 era!
