Sorry - wrong download link for the beta!


** Prior to its definitive release in late 2020, the game had several public betas available, one of which is still downloadable from the commentary for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dB3xF-qGElk this video]]. In this version, the Italian names of several characters were different: Edera (Clover) was [[MeaningfulName Azzurra]], Aster was Ezio, Tarassaco (Taraxo) was Esteban, Alisso (Basil) was Danilo, Claudio (Ginger) was Evan, Mimosa (Vanilla) was Rochelle, and Verbena (Nuphar) was Alexandra. Some of the files in the game's current release also reveal that Crisante (Caspar) was called Ruben, though the aforementioned beta ends short of his Gym battle.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5V7z4Lxc1E This video]] by the dev team also goes on in depth about the redesigns some Pokémon underwent before the current release, as well as several discarded Pokémon. Among the latter stand Galidler and Meowgalo, a Normal/Dark-type cat Pokémon line, the Ice-type Vicekube line, and several X Pokémon like Cradily (who was originally Ginger's signature X Pokémon) and Altaria.
** Due to a rift between Weedle Team and the now former concept artist team Élite4, which ended up with the latter abandoning the development of the game, another batch of Pokémon was discarded from the DLC segments of the game. All of them can be viewed in [[https://www.instagram.com/_elite.4_/ Élite4's Instagram page]]; the most notable exclusion among them are an Astral Form for Sabolt, a Pokémon named Xilagard [[spoiler: meant to be the resurrection of Dragalisk (and presumably retooled into Dragalisk X for DLC Pass 4)]], and Mega Evolutions for Dragonite, Granbull and [[spoiler:the post-game starter Pokémon Vesperfum, Croakraze and Swelephant.]]

* DubNameChange: In the original Italian version of the game all the main cities of Eldiw take their names from [[ThemeNaming the astrological signs]]. In the English version the references to astrology got lost, but the cities still retain [[StellarName a stellar theme naming]] with [[MeaningfulName each name being meaningful]] for the theme of the city itself.

** Not only does Xenoverse take place [[spoiler: in a continuity that borrows heavily from the ''[[Manga/PokemonAdventures Pokémon Adventures]]'' manga, but it also takes place 30 years after the events of ''[[VideoGame/PokemonRedandBlue Pokémon Red and Blue]]'' and its corresponding manga arcs, as detailed in [[https://www.instagram.com/p/CW6O7XGLCJK/ Lt. Surge's character artwork post.]]]]
** According to the artist's reply on the issue in [[https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ_l5EiF4SM/ this post]], Aster, the player character's mentor figure, is 34 years old during the events of the game.
