Pokémon GO is the franchise's first step into the world of getting players to GO out and have a good time in their towns while they circle around landmarks in hopes of catching any rare ones.

Hmmm...
To do:
Lots:
  • A patch that allows access to the game's debug mode, including an animation test.
  • Shiny Detective Pikachu was released during the Detective Pikachu Returns Event, so fix that
  • More unused items (quite a few berries).
  • Get a model rip of the Master Ball with both textures.
  • Version differences:
    • This .zip contains all graphics & sounds changed, added, and removed from 0.29.3 to 0.31.0.
  • Look through the decoded game data for unused things (some observations from Reddit)
  • This game has data for promotional events, but that data is bound to be used later.

Unused Graphics

Placeholder Photo

Pokemon-Go-Model-Viewer-Sample-Android.png Pokémon Go-ModelViewerSamplePhoto.png

A placeholder photo named ModelViewerSamplePhoto. This image seems to be horizontally stretched in the iOS release and horizontally squished in the Android release. This photo was taken next to the monument Cupid's Span in San Francisco, California where Niantic's headquarters are located.

Unused Items

Pokémon Go-Item 0401.png PokeGO Item 0702.png PokeGO Item 0703.png PokeGO Item 0704.png PokeGO Item 0705.png

An icon for the Honey item is present in the game. In mainline games, it can be used to start a battle against a wild Pokémon immediately. Unlike other unused items, the icon is all that's left of the Honey item. Also present are four icons for unused types of berries, two of which resemble the Bluk Berry and Razz Berry from the main series games (with the Razz Berry later being included), while the other two do not.

Unused Items

Choco Nanab Berry

PokemonGo ChocoNanab.png

A chocolate covered Nanab Berry. Both the Razz and Pinap Berries received extra effective variants (Golden and Silver, respectively), so it's possible there is/was one planned for the Nanab Berry as well.

Unused Models

PokemonGO-UnusedBerriesTextured.png

Models for both used and unused types of berries. The final game uses a static image of the Razz Berry rather than a model.

Unused Text

Hmmm...
To do:
Specify where this text is located.
*IF CHANGE  LAYOUT MAKE SURE  GRID FITS TON OF ITEMS*

A note from one of the game’s designers to whomever is in charge of designing the item screen’s layout.

Hatch this egg by feeding it butter. It likes all kinds of butter, every kind. The best kind.

A placeholder description for Eggs that might appear sometimes due to a glitch.

Unobtainable Pokémon

This cactus is UNDER CONSTRUCTION
This article is a work in progress.
...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

The models, textures and other 2D assets for every Pokémon up until Necrozma are in the game, with few exceptions. This includes their Shiny variants, any alternate forms and Mega Evolutions.

  • Shiny Unown have only been made available during events, with the following forms still unreleased: H, K, M, P, Q, W, X, Z, Exclamation Point and Question Mark.
  • Ash-Greninja and Dusk Form Lycanroc are completely absent.
  • The Shiny variant of Cosmog is absent.
  • Crowned Sword Zacian and Crowned Shield Zamazenta only have 2D sprites and use those of the Hero of Many Battles forms as a placeholder.
Hisuian Voltorb (Shiny) Hisuian Electrode (Shiny)
PokemonGo HVoltorbS.png PokemonGo HElectrodeS.png
  • The Shiny variants of Hisuian Voltorb and Electrode are present, but untextured.

Certain event exclusive Pokémon have Shiny and gender variants which were not made available.

The original condition for the Kanto medal was "Register x Pokémon in the Pokédex." In v1.27.2, when most Generation II Pokémon were added to the game, it was changed to "Register x Pokémon first discovered in Kanto Region to the Pokédex."
