Some New Translations and Other Stuff
🕑 Added 2022-09-18 06:33:15 +0000 UTCA couple weeks ago I added a Satoshi Tajiri book translation publicly available on my website: http://lavacutcontent.com/satoshi-tajiri-new-game-design/
And here's a new video translation from Game Freak's Japanese YouTube channel about Celebi's creation. It's in this Patreon-only google drive link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-zs_vWyockqdFL3v20fvZbeOR2i7pmp7?usp=sharing
I should note that in the Celebi video, the developers say they added rumored Gold & Silver content (Celebi at the Ilex Forest Shrine) into HeartGold & SoulSilver -- but they appear to be misremembering. I'm pretty certain they meant Crystal, not HGSS. There are also two Mew video translations in that same link above. If you're interested, here's a scripted video I wrote that incorporates the highlights from those two Mew translation, along with information from other sources: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esIL1W_QBns
And here's some downloads that were linked in Patreon posts a few years back but needed to be updated.
Scans of the Japan-only "New Hoenn Artbook": https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1uuwF4csHkhpjX19icX06U6AMGJ6r_YSM?usp=sharing
All 3030 Diamond & Pearl beta sprites: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14fKFk1x1gQpt1X081pAUmYzA9DyWV5O9?usp=sharing
Those DP sprites leaked in 2019 -- it's the batch that show a lot of scrapped gender differences. The download is for the raw sprites, but if you want to read more info about them, see this page: http://lavacutcontent.com/gen-4-beta-sprites-leak/
And for an interview I did with the leaker in 2019, see this page: http://lavacutcontent.com/pokemon-beta-leaker-statement/
Links to all other Patreon-only translations can be found in the previous Patreon post. I know some of y'all are only interested in the scans and translations, but for the folks also interested in the scripted videos I write for DYKG (my day job), here's a link to a playlist of all 42 of those videos (about half are Pokemon-related): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbBYbPZZXI70NqMYzCH42IsETfAhw0gQ9
A video landing on YouTube in about 2 weeks will focus on Pokemon Gray and Pokemon Z (already written, still being edited), and I'm currently working on a Pokemon book translation video that'll be about 2 hours long. Similar to that Pokedex book translation I did last year.
Thanks guys, I very much appreciate y'all's support. Hope you're having a good weekend.

Apologize for saying this late but thank you so much for fixing what you could. I'm assuming the Blue Beta sprites were unsalvageable too since you did not mention it. BTW I'm not sure if this is the right place to mention it, but I've come across some intriguing information about the Pokémon games, for example exclusive interviews from GAME FREAK from collector's edition guidebooks, that I thought you might be interested in preserving or at least looking at since I personally have not been able to locate them in full anywhere else including on sites like Bulbapedia. (Soz for the spam)
