Unlicensed Pokémon content
The unlicensed Pokémon include both unauthorised Pokémon cameos in other games and Pokémon-like characters created to avoid lawsuits.
Examples
- In the video game "Catherine" is an unused possibly unlicensed remix of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl's wild Pokémon theme called "poke_btl_loop"
- In Dragon Quest Monsters 2 are possibly unlicensed tokusatsu/kaijuu inspired Pokémon sprites, featuring Pikachu
- The Rocket Company game Nashi-jiru Busha! Funassyi VS Dragons contains possible unused Pokémon menu sprites; of Pokémon Pichu, Chespin, Fennekin, Dedenne, and Diancie.
- Serebii.net used to have a section, detailing unofficial, false Pokémon spread as fact. Three included Groudon, Kyogre and Umigorou by Datel, which were modified versions of Groudon, Kyogre, and Swampert to avoid legal trouble.
