You’ve probably already heard about the big Pokémon leak that’s been making the rounds for almost a week. The most interesting backgrounds of many games have been revealed, including the 3DS titles Pokémon X and Y.

How GamePro deals with illegal hacking attacks:

The situation surrounding Game Freak cannot be compared to normal leaks. If it is usually about insiders passing on information, this is a criminal offense. Although the situation is currently not fully clear, in addition to gameplay assets and release plans, private information from Game Freak employees is also affected.

GamePro will provide coverage of the hacking attack but will not link to the leaked files. The stolen data is now public and will not disappear if we ignore the issue. We see it as our journalistic duty to process and classify the published information as well as its illegal procurement and possible consequences for you.

Deleted content from Pokémon X and Y

It is common in game development for concepts to be rethought or even deleted entirely during the development process. Because the following deleted content from the X and Y editions is not an isolated case.

You can see exactly what content was paid attention to in the next list:

Flying locomotion in the sky was introduced with Latias or Latios Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire implemented.
Creation of your own arena with a suitable online challenge as well as the possibility of recruiting defeated people as NPCs for your own arena.
A feature that allows multiple Pokémon Eggs to be hatched at the touch of a button.
Rhyhorn Race: A mini-game that should play like Mario Kart with Pokémon attacks. Even in online mode.
Previously released Pokémon should be able to suddenly reappear in tall grass.
Bonus for unevolved Pokémon: The STAB multiplier for unevolved Pokémon should be 2 instead of 1.5 and from 30 levels above the theoretical evolution level, the status values of the Pokémon should increase.
The NPC who remains in the game as a friend after choosing a character was originally supposed to have been a Pokémon that was transformed into a human.
Mysterious location in space where players can fight against an identical version of themselves.
The Ultimate Weapon was originally a Pokémon virus.
A total of 30 mega evolutions. Mega Rossana and Mega Libelldra in particular are hot candidates for this.
Recycled animations from Pokémon Battle Revolution.
