Altered Moves#

Nail Down (Curse)#

Hex: 0xAE

Has the same effect regardless of the user's type, unlike in the final game. Effectively Norowara's signature move, as they're the only Pokémon that could learn this move by leveling up.

Bonebone Rock (Bone Rush)#

Hex: 0xC6

Move's effect is not implemented in the demo.

Stalker (Mean Look)#

Hex: 0xD4

Uses a different effect. Spider Web uses the correct effect, so this may have been a mistake.

Bell Chime (Heal Bell)#

Hex: 0xD8

Only cures the status conditions of the user, instead of the entire party. Exclusive to the Rinrin line in the demo.

Megaphone (Megahorn)#

Hex: 0xE0

Same name, completely different attack. Its effect goes unused in the final.

Tempt (Sweet Scent)#

Hex: 0xE6

Same effect, different animation. Exclusive to Exeggcute in the demo, which only got Sweet Scent through a limited-time event in the final game.

Cross Cutter (Cross Chop)#

Hex: 0xEE

Exclusive to the Pinsir line in the demo. Replaced by Cross Chop in the final games, which also replaced a different move called Rock Slash.

A similar move, X-Scissor, was introduced in Generation IV.

Whirlpool#

Hex: 0xFA

No animation or secondary effect.

Removed Moves#

Hex: 0xB1

Move's effect is not implemented in the demo. Exclusive to the Meowth line in the demo. Aeroblast is in this slot in the final.

Icy Wind occupies this slot in the final. This move doesn't act as described, instead behaving like Conversion. Its description is similar to the move Endeavor, introduced in Generation III.

Rock Head#

Hex: 0xE8

Effect not implemented in the demo. Metal Claw takes this slot in the final.

This move's name was used for an ability in Generation III. Two similar moves, Iron Head and Head Smash, was introduced in Generation IV.
