'''Pokémon Diamond and Pearl prototypes''' refer to pre-release versions of certain aspects that were dropped or changed, but not removed, from the games. In other words, during the planning and development stages of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, several features were designed to be a part of the gameplay. But before the games were released, the design was changed and these features were dropped from official play. Some remnants of this data can still be found in the game's programming.

==Pre-Release==
There are a number of pre-release sprites not put in the game. These include [[rival]] and [[Team Galactic]], and sprites of {{p|Weavile}} and {{p|Munchlax}} (shown in the Gallery below.)
=={{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}}==
=={{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}}==
Back sprites, presumably from the game's early prototype stage, of Shellos and Gastrodon have been found. These forms are possibly leftovers from when Shellos and Gastrodon [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire beta|were planned]] to be in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}. Shellos's sprite is pink, like its [[Form differences|West Sea variation]], and seems to combine the western variation's head with the [[form differences|Eastern variation]]'s body, while Gastrodon's sprite is brown and looks like its Western variation, but with more rock-like protrusions on its body. This may also be another "unofficial confirmation" of [[Pokémon Gold and Silver remakes]] since its [[Pokédex]] data states that its colors and shapes differs from [[region]] to region, although it is unlikely, considering the similarities to the existing forms, and the fact that there are no front sprites for either of the prototype forms.
