Purble
On December 15th, 2015, a user anonymously submitted a rant to the salt blog DramaRising, going on a very long rant about how they had been trying to save up for a XXX purple Ridgeback. Before they could buy the Ridgeback , another user had bought it and according to the anonymous poster had "[turned] it into a shitty joke." What egregious thing has the buyer done? Put purple apparel on the ridgeback, named him Purble and wrote in his description "he purble."

The backlash towards the anonymous poster was strong, with a lot of people pointing out how much the user was overreacting. Many simply reblogged and wrote 'he purble.'
Purble was exalted in 2017, but his legacy still lives on.
RIP purble king

Doofy Dragon
On December 22nd, 2007, Undel posted this image of a dragon to the website Art Wanted titled 'Doofy Dragon'
The caption read 'A doofy little guy I'm working on for the Flight Rising project." Nothing else is known about why this dragon was scrapped or if it influenced the development of any other breeds

Baldwin and the Bogsneak Mutagen
Before Bogsneaks were a thing, Baldwin was a pearlcatcher.
On September 14th, 2016, something strange began to happen to Baldwin. Over the next 5 days, Baldwin began to slowly transform into something new...

On September 19th, 2016. It was revealed that Baldwin had morphed into a new breed: The Bogsneak. On that day, Baldwin's transformation completed and his art depicted him in a new pose, completely transformed
Banner from the accompanying story, the Bogsneak mutagen
As part of the release, a story was called "The Bogsneak Mutagen" to discuss how exactly Baldwin created a new breed of dragons.
Banner of the bogsneak release announcement
Due to the fact that Baldwin had created the Bogsneaks, Bogsneaks became the first breed unaffiliated with any particular flight and many users joked that Baldwin was a deity because he'd created an entire new breed, a feat only previously achieved by deities.
Bogsneaks remained the only breed unaffiliated with a flight until the release of Thorntails on November 13th, 2025. As of writing, there's no explanation on why Thorntails are unassociated with any flight.
All Baldwin images are from the flight rising wiki.
I can't believe I forgot to mention this, but Baldwin still has his pearl! It's found on the shelf on the Creat New Items page of Baldwin's Bubbling Brew!

Scrolls of Divorce, Resurrection + other reject items
As with any game, not everything conceptualized actually made it too release. There's 4 known items that didn't make it to release: the Scroll of Divorce, the Scroll of Resurrection, the Double Scratch Battle Stone, and the Harmony Battle Stone
The Scroll of Divorce
Yes, you heard that right. Pre-release, dragons were monogamous. If you wanted to mate a dragon with another dragon but one dragon already had a mate, you would have had to go to the marketplace and buy a scroll of divorce. (Disclaimer: It's unclear how the scroll of divorce would have been obtained but this is a funny image in my head)
The Scroll of Resurrection
In the alpha, dragons could also die. It's unclear how they could die (I would assume age because that's pretty common for pet sites where pets can die), but if you wanted to resurrect them, you had to use this scroll.
Double Scratch
"A low damage attack that performs two rapid hits that generate breath. The second hit isn't as powerful as the first, but it still stings!"
Prior to release, there was a version of scratch that was well, double scratch. It was actually in the game on release until September 2014, but it was never obtainable. The item's ID was #764. A file was also left in the game files believed to be the animation for double scratch.
Harmony
"The caster will focus on the surrounding magical energies, generating a large amount of breath for itself and a small amount of breath for its companions."
Like it's other unreleased companion, it was also still in the game files on release until September 2014, but was never obtainable. It's item ID was #765. A file was also left in the game files believed to be the animation for harmony.
Notably, both stones can be seen in a screenshot on the Coliseum Battle Encyclopedia page
There was a post by Undel that talked a little bit more about them, but Undel accidentally nuked her Tumblr so that's currently lost to time.
All images (aside from the last one) + info is from the flight rising wiki!
the more things change, the more things stay the same
also in case you forgot, this is what people wanted dragon profiles to revert to:
one of my silly fr ideas is that there is no evidence for domesticated cattle (they get dairy from snakes) but there is evidence for the existence of a cowboy-adjacent culture (highnoon sets, some other stuff?) so. chicken farming works exactly like the mid 1800s american beef industry. chicken herders on the open range. lassooing them.
#wait sorry can you elaborate on the snakes part#i'm all for this but Huh (via @azurebolt-fr)
These drop from buttersnakes in the coli, and are to my knowledge the only dairy-based food items on the site.
The only bovine familiars are the Tauruses (made of water) and Ophiotauruses (reptilian).
I can draw no other conclusion but that we're milking the snakes.

Hey! Spin this Wheel of every Flight Rising Familiar there is (as of right now)!
This Familiar now lives with you in your regular real-life as a pet (if non-sapient) or a roommate (if sapient). Everything else about your life remains unchanged.
How do feel about this development?
HELL YEAH THIS THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO ME!!
This is awesome!
This is pretty good
Not bad…
This equal part awesome and horrible, I don’t know how to feel

Eh, could be better…
This is kinda bad!
This really sucks!!
Welp, I’m pretty sure they’re dead
