** In the earlier draft of the game, Pokémon would've been able to go into negative HP, and [[FinalDeath permadeath]] would've occurred when said HP got too low. This had to be dropped however, as having negative HP proved to cause a number of issues, particularly during Double Battles.

** Darker-skinned Trainers were planned to be included, but the limited palette of ''Emerald'''s overworld prevented it from happening.
** During the battle against them on Route 110, the rival's starter Pokémon was originally supposed to be [[KilledOffForReal killed]] by a critical hit. This would have caused them to return to Littleroot Town for the remainder of the game; there would not have been any more battles against them, and their mother would kick the player out if they attempted to visit.

** Upon reloading after a whiteout, an idea was to include [[https://github.com/tustin2121/trihard-emerald/issues/67 a short line of dialogue]] that implied the protagonist was waking up in a panic, as if the events preceding the reset had been part of a nightmare.

"Steven: Do you often challenge trainers in just your underpants?" and the screen goes white, and screen suddenly cuts to the player in one of the Pokecenter beds.
** Upon fainting a Pokémon currently using Surf or Dive in the overworld, the player character was initially supposed to end up "washed ashore"; this however proved difficult to implement, meaning said Pokémon in the final product just keeps surfing/diving until reaching land or going back to the surface.
** The tombstones in Mt. Pyre were planned to feature names of Pokémon that had died during the course of the run, with one spot dedicated to the rival's Pokémon.
** The player would have received letters from their mother in Alola after earning Badges, which would have included a gift item and some alimony, but this was scrapped due to time constraints.
** There were plans for an "[[https://github.com/tustin2121/trihard-emerald/issues/42 EXP Redistributor]]" item that could be turned on and off, and would redistribute any EXP earned among team members according to their needs, based on their deviation from the average level of the party.
** Implementing the soaring mechanic from ''VideoGame/PokemonOmegaRubyAndAlphaSapphire'' was considered to replace the Fly map, as it had already been [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_ICgb6aJ64 recreated in Gen III]].
** A few options were considered to allow for healing without saving the game, including occasional large trees where the player could [[AnOddPlaceToSleep take a nap]], or bed decorations for the Secret Base.
