====Game Freak====
*Many music similarities detailed here ([https://archives.glitchcity.info/forums/board-10/thread-9072/page-0.html archived forums thread]), beginning as early as even Game Freak's first game (Blue's approach theme is similar to a boss theme in Mendel Palace).
**Mendel Palace seems to have a major game freezing glitch involving a transforming character (note Transform became a move in Pokémon).
**Non music references to Pulseman exist in Pokémon such as the Japanese name of S.S. Anne (St. Anne) referring to a home computer in the game, and the Japanese name of Volt Tackle (Volteccer) is the name of Pulseman's special electrical move; however Volteccer itself was based on another franchise (elaborate). On of the cover arts (there are at least two) for the Satoshi Tajiri: A Man Who Created Pokémon book (not to be confused with the later manga) features Pulseman with Pikachu.
*Toby Fox the composer of Undertale worked on a Battle Tower song in Pokémon Sword/Shield, and also on Game Freak's game Little Town Hero, so a similarity in style could be expected.
*Electivire's cry actually uses elements from a guitar sample which can be seen in Zero-G's "Chemical Beats" library. The elements were later reused for Pokémon Black and White music and Lysandre's theme from Pokémon X and Y.<ref>[https://twitter.com/vgmresources/status/1107708218426515457 Twitter (VGMResources)]</ref>
====Creatures, Inc.====
*Various of Creatures, Inc.'s games share sound effects and jingles, such as the Game Boy Camera (however, the only Pokémon content in it include Pokémon stamps).
*Creatures, Inc. tried their own character franchise and minigame compilation called Chee-Chai Alien, with the intro sequence even having one of the main characters Saraba commenting that the game is like Pokémon. It has since faded into relative obscurity, but it received three games (Chee-Chai Alien, Nonono Puzzle Chalien and Spin Six); with the last being spun-off from the Spin Six mode from Nonono Puzzle Chalien. Spin Six is also the only Chalien game to have been officially localised, including localisations of Chalien names themselves. Despite the obscurity, one of the other main characters Li'l Blue appears as a Spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
**The exclamation mark from Pokémon curiously appears in Chee-Chai Alien as well in Myd's Mystery Circle minigame.
