A Japan-exclusive special Pokémon episode of ''{{wp|GameCenter CX}}'', known as ''Retro Game Master'' outside of Japan, included an interview with [[Satoshi Tajiri]], where he revealed early {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} character profiles of {{p|Nidoking}}, {{p|Slowbro}} and {{p|Kadabra}}. Notably, they are given a [[National Pokédex]] number which matches their [[List of Pokémon by index number (Generation I)|internal index number]], rather than their final [[Kanto Pokédex]] number. Nidoking, for instance, is noted as being #007, rather than #034, either suggesting that there was another method of ordering the Pokémon proposed, or that they reflect their ordering in the internal data. The latter is supported by interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]], which verify that {{p|Rhydon}}, which has an index number of 001, was the first Pokémon ever created, and early sketches from [[Capsule Monsters]] featuring Rhydon. Nidoking is also referred to as '''マイコー♂''' ''Maikō♂'', indicating that there were either placeholders or alternate names for Pokémon before the development of {{game|Red and Green|s}} had finished.

In addition to this, it was confirmed in an interview with [[Shigeki Morimoto]] that there were originally going to be 190 Pokémon in Generation I, indicating that the 39 [[MissingNo.]] found in the [[List of Pokémon by index number (Generation I)|internal index]] are formatted Pokémon.<ref>[http://www.smogon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=78267 There Were 190 Pokémon! | Smogon Forums]</ref>
