@Classy_Persian @HeavyMetalFairi @JbrozillaS That front sprite is fan-made – we only have a back sprite of Gorochu. All the newly uncovered cut sprites can be seen here. —@obskyr https://t.co/0B6Ys08L44

Here it is – this thread has a collection of until now unseen early Generation I assets, chief among them being several never-before-seen Pokémon! Cubone and Kangaskhan in one Pokémon? A… yeti creature? Gorochu? It's all in there. https://t.co/0B6Ys08L44

If you don't have the time to spare for the stream (which is going on right now at https://t.co/YbtSK3POSh, by the way), there'll be an info dump for you to browse later – so don't worry if you need to get some sleep.

[Team Spaceworld @TeamSpaceworld]

Big things on https://t.co/YbtSK3POSh shortly. Be there and witness Pokémon history.

[Team Spaceworld @TeamSpaceworld]

Now. https://t.co/YbtSK3POSh

@lifeistatakai Still going on! There'll be an info dump for you to browse after the stream, if you don't have the time to spare for watching. —@obskyr

@ShurtugalTCG Like… now. Get in here! —@obskyr

[Helix Chamber @helixchamber]

It's time for the commercial break! You know what that means!

Who's that Pokemon?

[Team Spaceworld @TeamSpaceworld]

@Marc0F4ntasy Just bumping it so it's in people's Twitter feeds at a time that isn't in the middle of the night for Europeans! —@obskyr

Is it never-before-seen stuff? Only one way to find out (by which we mean "yes")!

[Team Spaceworld @TeamSpaceworld]

European bump!

[Team Spaceworld @TeamSpaceworld]

(It's not the translation patch – it's something else, and there's plenty to be excited about.)

[Team Spaceworld @TeamSpaceworld]

@itsplaguebitch I've finished the actual translation of all the text – the technical side is blocking. We're a bit short-staffed on able hackers who have the time and motivation to knock down the last few of those barriers. —@obskyr

[Team Spaceworld @TeamSpaceworld]

@SnortSnorth Oh, it's a– Waaaait a second, can't pull a fast one on me! You'll see then and there! 😁 —@obskyr

[Team Spaceworld @TeamSpaceworld]

@Angela_C_E It does! At level 29. —@obskyr
