Since Pokémon Gold and Silver were released, other things have been uncovered that reveal interesting details about the games' development. The final games have a large number of incomplete maps that detail what most [[Johto]] towns looked like during development. One of the most complete prototype maps found in their programming is a rough version of the [[Kanto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]].  Although no wild Pokémon appear inside, it has several of its attributes defined, such as music, and connections to [[Fuchsia City]], which other prototype maps do not have. The Safari Zone also appears in the internal list of [[PokéGear]] map locations, along with [[Viridian Forest]], [[Cerulean Cave]], and {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}}. Another complete map is a house in [[Olivine City]], where a woman refers to a pharmacy in [[Ecruteak City]] instead of [[Cianwood City]]. It is unknown if this is a typo made by the game designers or if this means the Cianwood Pharmacy was originally meant to appear in Ecruteak.

Full maps (minus events) exist for the [[Cinnabar Island]] Lab, indicating Cinnabar Island was originally to make an appearance without the erupted volcano, or at least that the lab was going to remain.
