Catch 'em, catch 'em, gotta catch 'em all! Gotta catch 'em all, CapuMon?! Here's a little bit of proto-Pokemon for the fans.

While ultimately unable to secure the name "Capsule Monsters," Tajiri shortened it to "CapuMon" before finally settling on "Pocket Monsters." Also of note here are early designs for Gengar and what is presumably Nidorino.
