It'd probably be a good idea to avoid directly attaching the English names given to Pokémon in the final release of Gold and Silver to the ones found in this prototype. It's a bit misleading to call Hanamogura "prototype Bayleef" given how little they resemble one another, and while people have informally described Bōbō as "prototype Noctowl" it's clear they didn't have much laid down for what Hōhō would evolve into at this stage beyond "a bigger owl" - the sprite is visibly lacking in detail, and Noctowl didn't even retain the single foot they did have at this point. (Manbō1 is so early in development it doesn't even have a ''name'' yet.)

:I have a hidden edit note in that section of the page that tells those who help edit the page to NOT speculate what a Pokémon's translated name may have been. :) ''[[User:Frozen Fennec|<span style="color:teal">Frozen</span>]] [[User talk:Frozen Fennec|<span style="color:green">Fennec</span>]]'' 22:17, 16 May 2019 (UTC) | :I have a hidden edit note in that section of the page that tells those who help edit the page to NOT speculate what a Pokémon's translated name may have been. :) ''[[User:Frozen Fennec|<span style="color:teal">Frozen</span>]] [[User talk:Frozen Fennec|<span style="color:green">Fennec</span>]]'' 22:17, 16 May 2019 (UTC) | ||
:Thomas Winwood, I respectfully strongly disagree. I think that if a Pokemon clearly fits the same evolutionary purpose as a Pokemon which appeared in Gold and Silver, it ''is'' essentially a "prototype" version of that Pokemon. Besides, where do we draw the line? Hoothoot looks similar, but has slight differences, Magby more so, Pichu more so... and so on. That being said, I'd happily let up on Mantine. --[[User:Celadonkey|<span style="color:#004EA2">cela</span><span style="color:#B60007">donk</span>]] ([[User talk:Celadonkey|talk]]) 21:50, 17 May 2019 (UTC) | |||
