Post-release
Pokémon
Eternal Flower Floette remains in the code of the Generation VII games.
For consistency, all Pokémon have Shiny sprites even if they cannot be obtained as Shiny. Pikachu in a cap, Zygarde (all forms), the guardian deities (except Tapu Koko exclusively from an event distribution), Cosmog evolution line, Necrozma, and Ultra Beasts cannot be legitimately obtained as Shiny.
Hidden Abilities
Some Pokémon are programmed to have Hidden Abilities in Generation VII, but cannot legally obtain them. These Abilities may have been distributed in a later generation or are currently still not obtainable.
Locations
Akala Meadow exists as a location name at index number 66 (0x0042). In the final game, Pink Nectar can be found in Royal Avenue.
Items
- Main article: List of unobtainable items → Ride Pager
The Ride Pager, used to summon Ride Pokémon as part of Poké Ride, is not normally available as an item. However, it is present in the internal data of the games at index number 850 (0x0352).
Inverse Battles
Inverse Battles are in the coding of Generation VII although no NPC's can trigger them.
Pokémon GO
Pokémon GO exists as a location name at index number 30012 (0x753C). The Wonder Card at index number 88 (0x58) is intended to be used for a gift related to Pokémon GO. Additionally, Pokémon with the game of origin byte set to 34 (0x22) will display Pokémon GO as their location in Pokémon Bank, using a G in a circle as an origin marking.
Global missions
Although 12 global missions were programmed into the game, only nine of them were used. The remaining three are listed below:
Mission |
---|
Get high scores with your Poké Finder! Take as many photos that exceed 10,000 points as possible with your Poké Finder! |
Catch Crabrawler! Catch as many Crabrawler as possible! They're hiding behind Berries! |
Win Battle Royals! Win as many Master Rank Battle Royals as possible during the mission period! |
Unused graphics
There is an unused graphic of the real world map in the game.
Unused models
There are unused models of the player character's wireframe as well as two unused overworld models of Zygarde. Walking and Running models of all the current 802 Pokémon exists in Sun and Moon's files. This suggests that Pokémon were originally going to be able to follow their Trainer in-game.
Vast Poni Canyon trial music
The ambient music used during the trial in Vast Poni Canyon is referred to in the game data as battle music but it is never heard during any Pokémon battles.
