Unused items: Difference between revisions

The fourth generation of Pokémon games containedcontain a significant amount of unobtainable items, especially after the release of Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver as previous items such as Oak's Letter were usable within Pokémon Diamond, Pokémon Pearl and Pokémon Platinum but are unusable within Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver partly due to the fact that Sinnoh is unvisitable in the game. Like Generation III, these items likely exist because of evidence that Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver were designed from the previous games. Interestingly, there are also a significant amount of items which are never obtainable as actual items within the player's bag, but are mentioned by other NPCs such as the Red Chain in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. Other items like the Rule Book in the same games may have remained unobtainable because of their use in other interfaces within the game, or perhaps in the case of the Rule Book unneeded, because the Wi-Fi rules are mentioned in the game instruction booklet.
