This is a sub-page of Development:Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
Leaked set of documents GFDocs.7z contains an Excel spreadsheet named “世界共通名称リスト060525” (International name list), meant to gather then-new Pokémon names and indicate which of them would stay the same across all languages (for example, Pikachu).
This list is interesting because it contains the Sinnoh Pokémon ordered by “グラフィックNo.” (“Graphic number”, probably the sprite index number in the order they were added to the in-development games), showing names marked as temporary (仮) and their categories as they were set at the time.
Names that differ from the final are marked in Template:Safesubst:#if: .
Categories that differ from the final are marked in Template:Safesubst:#if: .
