Region Map

PokéGear Map In-Game Map
PKMN GS Prototype Town Map.PNG PokemonGS Proto Overworld Map.png

The region seen in the prototype is incredibly different from the final Johto region. It seems to be based on the entirety of Japan, with Kanto having been compressed into a single map found in the area of the real-life Kanto region. Most of the region is mapped out, with only a couple of potential routes missing from the prototype. Some of these maps are closed off and do not connect anywhere, even if accessed through Debug Mode.

Most of the maps are missing scripts for NPCs and most trainers are missing scripts for trainer battles, with only the first few areas having working trainers. Also, the collision data for most maps doesn't work properly, and so the player is able to walk through most tiles if these maps are accessed. Due to this, much of the wild grass also does not function as the lack of collision data means it cannot be walked upon. Regardless, every area does contain encounter data, and if loaded in the tileset used in the demo area, these grass patches function.

The Town Map can be accessed by using the PokéGear option in Debug Mode.


Comparing the full overworld with the Town Map shows a few discrepancies between the two:

  • Although the Town Map shows routes between West and High-Tech and between High-Tech and Font, maps for these routes do not actually exist in the game's overworld. Their depiction on the map suggests they would have been at least partially water-based.
    • The overworld maps for West and High-Tech include a western and southern exit respectively, which suggests a connecting route between the two. However, this still differs from the Town Map's layout, which instead shows the route connecting from West's north side to High-Tech's east side.
    • The overworld maps for High-Tech and Font include a northern and southern exit respectively. Unlike above, these do match up with the intended route shown on the Town Map.
  • The route north from West to Birdon exists only on the overworld, and is not marked on the Town Map. Combined with the discrepancy noted above regarding the location of the intended route from West to High-Tech, it's possible that this area of the overworld was undergoing redevelopment at the time the demo was compiled, and that the Town Map reflects an earlier plan for the overworld's layout.
  • The overworld maps for the route from Silent Hill to Prince and Mt. Fuji do not appear to connect properly, and likely were blocked off for the demo version. Interestingly, the map matching Mt. Fuji's location on the Town Map strongly resembles an empty version of the Prince map, missing both the waterfall and all of the town's buildings. Exactly what this map was intended for, or how the maps on this route were intended to link together, is currently unknown.
  • Although the eastern side of Silent Hill is blocked off by a small rock structure, both the Town Map and overworld layout suggest it was supposed to directly connect to the route leading east to Kanto. It's possible this may have been blocked off specifically for the demo, and keep the player in the demo's intended area.
  • According to the map, the "forest dungeon" on Route 15 was originally intended for Route 13. Also, the map has dots placed over routes 6 and 21, indicating those routes had dungeons, but these are not reflected on the demo's overworld.

Real-World Analogues

The prototype overworld is a direct reflection of real-life Japan. These are the likely analogues to the game's locations.

Name Translation Real Location Rationale Relation to Final
サイレント Silent Shizuoka The first kanji for Shizuoka (静) can have the meaning of silent, matching the name of this in-game location, Silent Hill. Retooled without the Pokémon Center as New Bark Town. An intermediate map of this town, with some differences to the demo version, still exists in the final ROM.
オールド Old Kyoto Kyoto was for centuries the capital of Japan, and holds a great deal of its history. This concept was split across Violet City and Ecruteak City, which both feature historical wooden towers.
ウエスト West Osaka Osaka is a major city whose port faces west. Ultimately retooled into Goldenrod City, albeit dropping the port.
ハイテク High-Tech Kochi Kochi is a city on the island of Shikoku whose name means high knowledge (高知). No direct match; may have been an influence for Olivine City and Cianwood City.
フォント Font Izumo The city of Izumo strongly resembles the Japanese word 泉 izumi, meaning a spring or fountain. Izumo is also notable for its tombs, which may be the inspiration for the Ruins of Alph. The Ruins of Alph were moved to their own, non-town zone.
バードン Birdon Tottori Tottori contains tori, which means bird in Japanese. Birdon is a desert town, and Tottori is known for its sand dunes. Additionally, the "-don" suffix seems to come from Slowpoke's Japanese name, Yadon (ヤドン). The Slowpoke Well concept was reused for Azalea Town, but the desert town theme was not.
ニュータイプ New Type Niigata 新潟 Niigata is literally "New Lagoon", but -gata is also a possible reading of 型, meaning type. Niigata has a famous bridge, and New Type is a city of bridges. Has a functional relation to Mahogany Town. It may be the inspiration for one later revision of the Lake of Rage, which has a town surrounding a lake in the middle.
シュガー Sugar Sado Sado is an island off the coast of Niigata, in the same relation as Sugar to New Type. The Japanese word for sugar, 砂糖 (さとう), sounds similar to Sado. No clear correspondence, but has a functional relation to the Lake of Rage, the body of water north of Mahogany Town. The Lake of Rage is a Flyable destination in the final for no clear reason; Sugar is a town.
ブルーフォレスト Blue Forest Aomori The kanji for 青森 Aomori literally translate to blue and forest. Blue Forest is at the very tip of the main island. The snowy overworld was scrapped. Generation IX would use northern Tohoku (Aomori, Akita, and Iwate) as the inspiration for Kitakami, which is geographically more similar to that of Towada-Hachimantai National Park.
スタンド Stand Sendai Sendai is a major city between Tokyo and Aomori. The second kanji 台 in Sendai means "stand" or "pedestal". Contains a zoo like Fuchsia City, and a gate on the west possibly leading to its own Safari Zone. May have been deemed redundant when Fuchsia was restored, as the Safari Zone was going to be included early on in the Kanto maps but was later cut itself.
カントー Kanto Tokyo Unlike the leafy portrayal of Generation I, the Tokyo-Yokohama conurbation occupies most of the real-world Kanto region. Additionally, "Kanto" essentially being a combination of towns could be based on how Tokyo's wards can be seen as their own municipalities. "Kanto" in the prototype is heavily compressed down to one map, and left unfinished. It was replaced with an altered port of the original Kanto from Generation I.
サウス South Kyushu Kyushu in southern Japan is known for its volcanoes. The tropical island idea was scrapped. May have been an influence for Cinnabar Island's destruction in the final. Generation III would use Kyushu as the basis for Hoenn.
ノース North Hokkaido Hokkaido is the northernmost island. The snowy overworld concept was scrapped, but an unusual ice cave is found in the final product. Generation IV would use Hokkaido as the basis for Sinnoh.
プりンス Prince Fuji The current kanji for 富士 Fuji mean wealth and man of status, which matches the definition of a prince. The city of Fuji is northeast of Shizuoka and below Mt. Fuji. In-game, Prince is located directly north of Silent Hill and is similarly located right below Mt. Fuji. The Pokémon League is located at Indigo Plateau, adjacent to Mt. Silver, which is Mt. Fuji's in-game counterpart.
フジヤマ Mt. Fuji Mt. Fuji The real-world basis for this map is obvious, as it's literally labelled Mt. Fuji. Ultimately retooled as Mt. Silver.

Possible Sinnoh Cities

There are three cities that bear a resemblance to ones found in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. In the Gold/Silver prototype ROM, they go by "New Type", "North", and "Blue Forest". New Type seemingly features a port (given the presence of sailors and a captain) and bears a very similar layout to Canalave City. North and Blue Forest are both covered in snow, and may have served as inspiration for Snowpoint City. Additionally, the route connecting the two snowy cities is comparable to Route 223, which connects Sunyshore City and the Pokémon League.

New Type vs. Canalave City North vs. Snowpoint City Blue Forest vs. Snowpoint City
PKMN Gold Spaceworld Canalave.png PKMN Gold Spaceworld Snowpoint 1.png PKMN Gold Spaceworld Snowpoint 2.png
Much like Canalave City, New Type's defining feature is a canal dividing the city into two. It has an ocean to the north, similar bridge and building placement, and a southeast connection to a route. North is covered with snow, and the buildings and the cave are arranged roughly into a star shape comparable to Snowpoint City. Both locations also have an ocean located to the south. Blue Forest is covered with snow and has its buildings arranged around a central building, much like Snowpoint City. Both locations also have a southwest connection to a route.

Unused Landmarks

The following landmarks are not used by any of the maps.

ID Visual Notes

0x1E PokeGold-SW97-Unused-Landmark-1E.png Unknown.
0x29 PokeGold-SW97-Unused-Landmark-29.png Intended for Route 5, which is absent from this build’s overworld.

Overworld Object Sprite Lists

The first two Generations of mainline Pokémon games use a system in which the game draws its overworld sprites from a table that contains ten byte entries. These correspond to the NPC sprites that can appear in each "zone" of the overworld (i.e., not inside buildings). This table can be used to load unique sprite data into memory (like loading the Rival in Silent Hill during the events of Story Mode). The table covers both towns and routes, but not indoor areas. The last two bytes of every entry are always two static sprites, here the itemball (Poké Ball) and Pokédex (the latter being used as padding). For comparison, the Gen I spriteset table instead uses the drunk old man as padding, with the final Gen II table being more versatile, actually using this spot to load relevant sprites (usually a Berry Tree).

As you play, some of the later inaccessible areas in the demo, you may notice that you can find copies of the player's sprite in several towns in the overworld. This is because the sprite data for that NPC hasn't been loaded by the game and instead falls back on the default sprite, which happens to be Gold's. This is because almost every area after West is using an older object layout that uses sprites not loaded by the table for that given area. As such, the overworld object sprite table consists of the NPCs for events that were planned by Game Freak at a relatively late stage of development. Blue Forest's and North's entries are the same, so they utilize the same NPCs.


Several observations can be made thanks to this data. For example, the Rival was meant to appear in High-Tech, New Type, South, and North (or its routes). Giovanni, meanwhile, was meant to make an appearance on the overworld in Stand, as was a male Geruge Member. Both the male and female Geruge Members were meant to appear in Mt. Fuji, too. As for Prof.Oak, he would have showed up in Prince, which doesn't have any objects on the map in the prototype. Below is a representation of the data in the tables:

Wild Encounter List

The games' original wild encounter table, which oddly enough is comprised of a single file, instead of being split into grass and water tables, like in the final Generation II games. Regarding version exclusive encounters, while they already exist at this stage of development, they are limited to the areas normally accessible in demo mode, with those being the first two routes, and their forest dungeon.

The route numbers come from the leaked source code, and are listed here alongside their placement on the overworld map for ease of reading.

Leftover Older Collision Format

Hmmm...
To do:
Investigate whether tile assignments for whirlpools, pits, and ladders exist in the collision mapping format the demo actually uses.

All of the tilesets other than those used in the maps intended to be accessible in the demo use an alternate collision mapping that is mostly incompatible with the demo's near-final implementation.
