Line 13:
*The change from Generation I to Generation II wasn't necessarily straight forward, because eventually Game Freak revealed there were unreleased Pokémon in both Generations I and II, such as Raitora; and the Nintendo Space World demos were more similar in code to Generation I. In fact there were many changes between the prototype game hidden in the Space World demos, with a different distribution of monsters, different locations, a thinned down Kanto and many other details. Satoru Iwata (former president of Nintendo) was reportedly one of the Nintendo employees who helped Game Freak rework the game including more efficient region code which lead to a fuller Kanto. (source needed)
*During the localisation process, staff from Nintendo of America wanted to alter the Pokémon designs believing they were "overly cute" including a humanised Pikachu like "something out of Cats", but the decision was rejected <ref>[https://twitter.com/helixchamber/status/1263551967051370496 Helix Chamber Twitter posts (1)]</ref>

Line 39:
**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)
*Toby Fox the composer of Undertale worked on a Battle Tower song in Pokémon Sword/Shield, and also on Game Freak's game Town, 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>
