Greetings!
Hey there! I'm Yori, a fan of alternately-colored and variant Pokemon, and a frequent passenger on the rumor train for upcoming Pokemon games. I joined Bulbapedia to assist in setting up the information on Spaceworld '97 Pokemon, but I'm happy to help out where ever I can!
I am also an artist and roleplayer over on DeviantArt, and administrator of the Pokemon gijinka RP group Pokecino. Interested in a modern slice-of-life town RP with Pokemon gijinkas, where things may sometimes get just a little crazy? Please stop on by! We'd love to have you. =3
Spaceworld
Trivia
Since there is so little information to warrant separate pages for every Spaceworld pokemon, I thought I would try writing them out as trivia to fit on the pages of existing pokemon.
Chikorita
- Chikorita is named Happa (Japanese: ハッパ') in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver. Its name comes from 葉っぱ happa meaning "leaf."
Bayleef
- In the 1997 Space World demo version of Pokémon Gold and Silver, Chikorita is likely intended to evolve into Hanamogura instead of Bayleef, who is absent from the game. It is unclear at what level this would occur, as evolution data was wiped for all Pokémon available in the playable demo area.
Meganium
- Meganium is named Hanaryū (Japanese: ハナリュウ) in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver. Its name is a combination of 花 hana (flower) and 龍 ryū (dragon).
Hoothoot
- Hoothoot is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a slightly altered design, including three dots under its eyes instead of notches and a zigzagging pattern on its lower back. It is a pure Flying-type instead of Normal/Flying and is likely intended to evolve into Bōbō, a possible early version of Noctowl. It is unclear at what level this would occur, as evolution data was wiped for all Pokémon located in the playable demo area.
Noctowl
- In the 1997 Space World demo version of Pokémon Gold and Silver, Hoothoot is likely intended to evolve into Bōbō, a possible early version of Noctowl. It is unclear at what level this would occur, as evolution data was wiped for all Pokémon located in the playable demo area.
Ledyba
- Ledyba is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a green coloration instead of red and seven smaller spots on its back instead of five.
- Due to their largely different learnsets, it is unclear whether Ledyba was intended to evolve into Mitsuboshi in the demo or if they were counterparts, as evolution data was wiped for all Pokémon located in the playable demo area.
Spinarak
- Spinarak is named Kokumo (Japanese: コクモ) in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver. Its name comes from 子 ko (child) and 蜘蛛 kumo (spider). It evolves into Tsūheddo starting at level 23.
- Spinarak is purple instead of green in the demo and in the final release of Pokémon Gold and Silver. As many early Pokémon were drawn directly as sprites and a green pallet was available in the game, it would seem that this was indeed Spinarak's original intended coloration.
Ariados
- In the 1997 Space World demo version of Pokémon Gold and Silver, Spinarak evolves into Tsūheddo, a possible early version of Ariados.
Crobat
- Crobat is named Ekushingu (Japanese: エクシング) in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver. Its name seems to derive from X-ing, likely in reference to the shape of its wings. As the friendship mechanic is absent in the demo, it instead evolves from Golbat starting at level 44.
Pichu
- Pichu is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a different design, featuring a round body with simpler features that may have been in reference to Pikachu's original daifuku-like design. As the friendship mechanic is absent in the demo, it instead evolves into Pikachu starting at level 12.
Cleffa
- Cleffa is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a slightly different design, featuring an all-pink body, a small stubby tail, and the overall shape of a five-pointed star with a small ball on its topmost point. As the friendship mechanic is absent in the demo, it instead evolves into Clefairy starting at level 12.
Igglybuff
- Igglybuff is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a slightly different design, lacking the tuft of hair on top of its body. The swirl-like pattern on its forehead was originally a curl of hair. As the friendship mechanic is absent in the demo, it instead evolves into Jigglypuff starting at level 12.
Togepi
- Togepi is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver. It does not evolve into any other Pokémon in the demo version of the game.
Natu
- Natu is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a tan coloration instead of green. Its types are switched in the demo, making it a Flying/Psychic-type instead of Psychic/Flying, and it evolves into Xatu when exposed to a Heart Stone instead of by level.
Xatu
- Xatu is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a tan coloration instead of green and a vertical eye-like marking on its upper back. Its types are switched in the demo, making it a Flying/Psychic-type instead of Psychic/Flying, and it evolves from Natu when exposed to a Heart Stone instead of by level.
Mareep
- Mareep is named Pachimē (Japanese: パチメエ) in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver and has a pink coloration instead of yellow. Its name may come from パチパチ pachipachi an onomatopoeia for crackling or blinking and メー mē an onomatopoeia for the sound a sheep makes. It evolves into Flaaffy starting at level 16, which then evolves into Ampharos starting at level 32.
Flaaffy
- Flaaffy is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver. It evolves from Mareep starting at level 16 and evolves into Ampharos starting at level 32.
Ampharos
- Ampharos is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver. It evolves from Flaaffy starting at level 32.
Bellossom
- Bellossom is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a slightly different design featuring four flowers around the top of its head instead of two. It is a Grass/Poison instead of Grass, and evolves from Gloom when exposed to a Poison Stone instead of by level.
Marill
- Marill is present in the 1997 Space World demo of Pokémon Gold and Silver with a pink coloration instead of blue. It does not evolve into any other Pokémon in the demo version of the game.
