Default Unidentified Silhouette Discovered in Pokémon TCG Online Coding

A silhouette of what appears to be a Pokémon has been found upon sifting the coding of the Pokémon TCG Online. The silhouette was found in the navigation bar of the site's tutorial page, along with images of the starter Pokémon native to Unova. The source of the tutorial's Flash file contained no further details or information on the silhouette.


The unknown silhouette

I think it's probably nothing.

Like just some left over data from beta testing.

Kinda looks like an unused body type from the dex.
Very intelesting... Maybe it's an alternate forme or something? Only thing I can think of is Keldeo and Kyurem, but why would Kyurem get such a tiny alternate forme?

Seems a bit early to be releasing an alternate form, and even then it probably would have already been discovered by hackers. Probably just a placeholder image.

Looks like it could be a set icon to me, that little icon in the corner. Hm, an alternate forme would be interesting already, though.

Quite strange... I can think of only two possibilities:
-It is a new Pokémon or a new forme that will be released in future games.
-It is an old beta Pokémon that has been neglected and was shown by mistake.
It is still hard to choose on of those.

The silhouette reminds me of some strange Tapir. It's appearance looks like it could've been a beta version of Tepig, and they probably just left it over.

But, who knows.

IT'S THE TOP OF JIGGLYPUFF!!
While I don't disagree that it could be an alternate form, it could be like... a test sprite. If it is an alternate form, it'll probably be removed soon. (like when they leaked Skymin)

As far as my knowledge of Gen V Pokémon goes, this doesn't look like an alternate forme. Although I'm fairly sure of that, I can very well be wrong.

It looks like what could of been a Tepig evolution, or maybe a Terrakion alternate form.

Hmm... this could be a gen 6 pokemon. (like how Zorua and Zoroark were shiloutted) Although, I find that impossible since Black and White were just released in the U.S not too long ago. (1 month to the exact :/)

The only three currently unreleased Gen Vs don't fit that description.

Let's start a betting pool. Five bucks on it being an alternate Gen V Pokemon form, another five on it being leftover concept data that forgot to be pulled. Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen. (I myself am of the mind it's just leftover data from a scrapped monster)

I bet eighty dollars that it is just an unused image that we will never see again.

You will when it somehow turns out that this stupid piece of unused material as some relevance to the next Gen. 5 game...

I mean, who would have seen the Giratina, Shaymin, or Rotom forms coming in Platinum?

It's probably something they scrapped. To be ohnest, it doesn't look very nice, so if it is something, i'll probably never notice it.

It doesn't look like an alternate form but possibly a first version to a current Pokemon sprite. We may never know :O.

It's probably Pokémon.com's April Fools joke; they did a few days in advance to make sure someone would find it in time
