What do you think?

Could be. These kind of Kanto trainer text references always pop up every generation.
Putty references aren't real references. But it's cool that they care about what was said in their older games anyhow.
>>27032036
I see.

I don't think this shows that they -care about what was said in their older games-, it just shows that there's a lot of dialogue to pick from, so obviously some of it's gonna fit
Besides, it's not like Salandit is the first thief pokemon either
>>27032015
Don't Scraggy/Sneasel cover that already?
>>27032015
gf confirmed that sometimes they throw in references to their brainstorming for future gens.
there is shitloads of pokemon ideas that have yet to see the light
>>27032015
So many pokemon are thief because they can learn thief move

It's been confirmed that there were many more than even 190 Pokémon designed for Generation 1, so I like to think that Munna is a design that got shitcanned during Gen 1, so a developer put that in the game as a reference to the cancelled 'mon.

Weren't all the designs they held over back then put into Gold and Silver?
It is entirely possible that Munna simply never made it past the concept stage, though.
In any case, it's interesting to think that some of the Pokémon coming out now could very well have been in the works for a couple of generations.

Not Scraggy, those are thug lizards that move in packs. Sneasal maybe.
>>27032015
Tirtouga was conceptualized in Gen 2.
>>27035391
Maybe not all of them.
I'm sure every generation there's hundreds of designs left on the cutting room floor that get reconsidered in a later gen like Shellos and Gastrodon

Apparently Tirtouga was going to be on Gen 2.
