Space World '97 Proto | Early '99 Build | Space World '99 (Caught Pokémon) | Final Game |
---|---|---|---|
This screenshot of Slowking's Pokédex entry reveals that while the layout more closely resembles the one used in the final games, a handful of differences still remain:
- The "new Pokémon under investigation" placeholder entry remains from the Space World '97 Demo, where it was used for every new Pokémon.
- Like in the Space World '97 Demo, the Pokémon sprite shown in their Pokédex entry was flipped horizontally, something that was carried over from Generation I. In the final games (and every subsequent game entries), sprites in the Pokédex are displayed exactly how they are in battle and on the status screens.
- There is no red border between the description and the data, nor are there any sub-menu options. The Pokédex number is missing as well. The border around the screen is a plain orange bevel, as opposed to the redder line with white highlights used in later builds as well as the final games. This is akin to the way the Space World '97 demo did Pokédex data in regard to a lack of sub-options, but is shockingly a downgrade if anything.
- In the Space World '99 Gold and Silver demo, the Pokédex uses the final game's layout, but strangely enough when you catch a Pokémon and it displays its information it shows a slightly modified variant of the Gold and Silver '97 layout.
