During the planning and development stages of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, several parts were going to be a part of the games. Some of them were dropped or changed, but some of those dropped concepts of the prototype version can still be found in the game's programming.

Locations

The islands in the Sevii Islands region would likely be named Sevii Isles. In addition, several more locations in the Sevii Islands have been found in the programming code, including Sevii Isles 6-9 and 22-24. It is very notable that Sevii Isles 8 and 9 have fully coded map data, implying that they were scrapped very late in the game's production.

A records room like that in the Hoenn games has also been found, but cannot be accessed without the use of a cheating device.

Items

Key items exclusive to Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald are found in the coding of this game, and are obtainable only by hacking. For the most part, they have no use, though the Mach Bike and Acro Bike will act as the normal bicycle obtainable in FireRed and LeafGreen does. Strangely, all of these items have accurate bag descriptions that are different from those in the Hoenn games (which have a different menu setup and less room for the description).

HM08, normally unobtainable and containing Dive like in the Hoenn games can be taught and deleted freely, making its use almost the same as a normal TM.

Beta Professor Oak sprite

There is a beta sprite for Professor Oak that would have been used in the games' introduction.
