Revisional Differences

Unused Graphics

assets\gif\433ee880bd7192400ee3c59489d572da.gif was a GIF of a woman dressed as Vocaloid Meiko dancing and accidentally hitting a chibi model of Vocaloid Rin. This was originally posted by Twitter user Arak2, which itself is based on this video. Given the random subject matter and gibberish filename (usually evidence that a video or gif has been downloaded directly off of Twitter using an external program), this was most likely something a developer quickly grabbed off their Twitter timeline to test out GIF files and forgot to delete afterwards. It was eventually removed in version 1.0.2.

Meanwhile, a few significantly less strange GIFs were also present, featuring Pikachu’s animations ripped straight from the Generation VII games. These were all removed in version 1.0.3.

Unseen Pokémon Titles

In the text files for Pokédex entries exist two additional Pokémon titles, listed alongside the other games in the series. All Pokédex entries within the files associated with these are identical to the ones in the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Pokédexes, with the exception that all alternate formes have been removed. Given that NX is the Nintendo Switch's codename, this may suggest either that a Switch version of the titles are planned, or (more likely) that Switch versions of the games were created for the sake of internal testing.

Unused Jynx Form

This page or section needs more audio. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough audio. Please fix this.

Jynx has an unused second form with its own unique cry. It is not currently known what this additional form is for, but it suggests that another form for the Pokémon may have been in the works at some point. The effects used to distort it sound quite similar to the ones used in Mega Evolutions, so it could belong to a scrapped one for Jynx.
