00, 03	Goomba Paragoomba

0B, 04	Pokey Mummy x2 Swooper x2	Similar to a used formation with one Swooper.
0B, 05	Swooper x2	Swoopers are never found on the field, so these go unused.
0B, 06	Swooper x3

14, 04	Spear Guy Jungle Fuzzy x2	Similar to a used formation with the Jungle Fuzzies in a different order.
14, 05	Spear Guy Jungle Fuzzy Spear Guy	Similar to a used formation with an additional Jungle Fuzzy after the second Spear Guy.
14, 07	Spear Guy Medi Guy Spike Top	This formation is listed in the groups reserved for the Jade Jungle. However, Medi Guys and Spike Tops are located in completely different formation groups. No other Jade Jungle formation has Medi Guy or Spike Top as extra enemies, meaning this was probably from a time where these enemies were compatible, or the Medi Guy and Spike Top overwrote the original enemies for this formation.

14, 0C	Jungle Fuzzy x4	Similar to used formations consisting of two and three Jungle Fuzzies, respectively.
14, 0F	M. Bush x3	Similar to used formations consisting of two and four M. Bushes, respectively.
15, 00	Putrid Piranha	Similar to used formations consisting of two Putrid Piranhas, and three Putrid Piranhas and one White Magikoopa, respectively. It's worth noting that these encounters are listed with the Jade Jungle miniboss encounters, so it seems there were to be more minibosses there.
15, 02	Putrid Piranha x3
16, 01	Lava Bubble x3	Similar to a used formation consisting of two Lava Bubbles.
16, 02	Lava Bubble x4
16, 03	Lava Bubble Spike Top x3
16, 04	Lava Bubble x2 Medi Guy	Similar to an unused formation in Jade Jungle with a Medi Guy, also indicating that either Medi Guy overwrote a different enemy or was to appear in this area as well as Jade Jungle.
16, 0C	Spike Top x2 Putrid Piranha	Similar to used formations with one Spike Top and two Putrid Piranhas, respectively.
16, 0E	Spike Top Lava Bubble x3	Similar to a used formation with one Lava Bubble.
16, 10	Putrid Piranha x3	Similar to a used formation with two Putrid Piranhas.
16, 12	Putrid Piranha x2, Spike Top	Similar to a used formation with the Spike Top between the two Putrid Piranhas.
17, 01	Petit Piranha x2	Located right after Lava Piranha's formation. This was likely just a debug formation to test out the Petit Piranhas without having to battle Lava Piranha every time.
18, 00	Lakitu x2	Similar to used formations that have Spinies and Magikoopas with the Lakitus.
18, 01	Lakitu x3	Similar to a used formation with a Yellow Magikoopa. There is another copy of this formation at 18, 08.

18, 05	Lakitu Crazee Dayzee	Lakitus never appear with Crazee Dayzees in any used formations.
18, 0E	Spiny Crazee Dayzee Medi Guy	Yet another unused formation with a Medi Guy where it shouldn't be. Also, Spinies only ever appear with other Spinies and Lakitus.
18, 11	Crazee Dayzee x3
18, 13	Crazee Dayzee Bzzap!	Similar to used formations with two Crazee Dayzees and two Bzzaps!, respectively.
18, 16	Crazee Dayzee x2 Amazy Dayzee	The only formation in the final game which has the Amazy Dayzee enemy in it only contains a single Amazy Dayzee with no other enemies. Nintendo probably wanted to include it in a few more battles, but considering how overpowered the enemy is, it was probably for the best that this formation was cut.
18, 18	Bzzap! x3	Similar to a used formation with two Bzzaps!.
18, 1B	Bzzap! x2 Ruff Puff	Similar to a used formation with only one Bzzap!.
18, 1D	Amazy Dayzee Bzzap x2	Probably cut for the same reason as the formation at 18, 16.
18, 1E	Amazy Dayzee x4	Again, Amazy is too overpowered to be in other formations, and with this one? You would be dead unless all of them ran away, which was probably the reason this formation was cut.
18, 1F	Ruff Puff x2	Similar to used formations with a Bzzap! and a Yellow Magikoopa, respectively.
18, 21	Ruff Puff Lakitu	Lakitus and Crazee Dayzees never appear with Ruff Puffs in any used formations.
18, 23	Ruff Puff x2  Crazee Dayzee
1A, 03	Dark Koopa Dark Paratroopa x2	One of the formations that contain the unused Dark Paratroopa enemy.
1A, 08	Dark Paratroopa x2	This formation seems to hint that Dark Paratroopas would have appeared in the overworld, like their regular counterparts.
1A, 09	Dark Paratroopa x3	Another Dark Paratroopa formation.
1A, 0B	Gloomba x4	Gloombas only appear on the overworld once, in a group of two.
1A, 11	Spiked Gloomba x2 Buzzy Beetle x2	Similar to a used formation with a Paragloomba instead of a second Spiked Gloomba.
1A, 13	Spike Top x4	Spike Tops never appear on the overworld in Toad Town Sewers, leaving these unused.
1A, 14	Spike Top x2
1A, 18	Spiny x4	Spinies only appear in groups of two or three in used formations.
1C, 00	Swooper x2	The 1C group contains four completely unused enemy formations in Toad Town Sewers, all consisting of Swoopers (Which never appear on the field) or Swoopulas (Which don't normally appear until Crystal Palace). It's unknown why this group is seperated from the regular Toad Town Sewers group (At 1A).
1C, 01	Swooper x3
1C, 02	Swoopula x2
1C, 03	Swoopula x3
1D, 04	Gulpit x2 Frost Piranha	Similar to a used formation with the enemies in a different order.
1D, 05	Gulpit x2 Frost Piranha x2	Similar to a used formation in the opposite order.
1D, 08	Frost Piranha x2 Gulpit
1D, 0D	White Clubba x2 Frost Piranha Gray Magikoopa	White Clubbas never appear with Gray Magikoopas in any used formations.
1E, 01	Paragoomba Gray Magikoopa (Ground)	An odd formation located in the group reserved for the Monstar fight. It's more than likely that this was a boss replaced with the Paragoomba and Gray Magikoopa enemies.
1F, 00	Swoopula x2	Swoopulas never appear in groups less than three.
1F, 04	White Clubba	White Clubbas never appear by themselves in any used Crystal Palace formations.
1F, 05	White Clubba x2
1F, 06	White Clubba x3
1F, 07	White Clubba x2 Swoopula	White Clubbas never appear with Swoopulas in any used formations.
1F, 0A	White Clubba x2 White Magikoopa Red Magikoopa	Similar to a used formation with a Gray Magikoopa instead of a White Magikoopa.
1F, 0E	Albino Dino	The only formation that uses the unused Albino Dino enemy. It was likely removed because Albino Dinos are quite powerful, and getting a game over from one would cause quite a bit of backtracking due to the last save point being far away.
21, 01	Duplighost	Similar to used formations with two and four Duplighosts, respectively.
21, 03	Duplighost x3
21, 05	Duplighost x2 Swoopula	Similar to a used formation with two Swoopulas and a Duplighost.
21, 07	Duplighost Red Magikoopa	Similar to a used formation with two Duplighosts.
21, 09	Duplighost x2 White Clubba	Duplighosts never appear with White Clubbas in used formations.

22, 08	Dry Bones x3
22, 09	Dry Bones x4
22, 0A	Dry Bones Ember x3	An interesting formation, since Embers never appear with other enemies in used formations, let alone in Bowser's Castle. This is also the only formation with Embers in Bowser's Castle.
22, 0C	Dry Bones Koopatrol x2	Similar to a used formation, but the enemies are in a different order.
22, 0D	Dry Bones x2 Bony Beetle (Spiky)
22, 0E	Dry Bones x2
22, 10	Hammer Bros. x3	Similar to a used formation with a Magikoopa.
22, 11	Hammer Bros. Koopatrol
22, 12	Hammer Bros. x2 Koopatrol
22, 15	Hammer Bros. x2 Magikoopa (Broom)	Similar to a used formation with three Hammer Bros.
22, 1B	Koopatrol Hammer Bros.
22, 1C	Koopatrol x2 Hammer Bros. x2
22, 1E	Koopatrol x2 Magikoopa x2	Similar to a used formation with a broom Magikoopa.
22, 1F	Koopatrol Bony Beetle (Spiky)	Koopatrols never appear with spiked Bony Beetles in any used formations.
22, 20	Koopatrol x2 Bony Beetle (Spiky)

22, 22	Koopatrol x2 Bony Beetle (Spiky)
22, 25	Koopatrol x2 Magikoopa x2	Similar to a used formation, but the enemies are in different spots.
22, 26	Magikoopa x2	None of the formations have grounded Magikoopas only.
22, 27	Magikoopa x3

22, 2C	Magikoopa x2 Bony Beetle (Spiky)
22, 2D	Magikoopa x2 Bony Beetle (Spiky) Bony Beetle
22, 2E	Magikoopa x2 Magikoopa (Broom)	Similar to a used formation with two broom Magikoopas.
22, 30	Magikoopa (Broom) x2	No used formations have just broom Magikoopas.
22, 31	Magikoopa (Broom) x3
22, 34	Magikoopa (Broom) Hammer Bros.	Broom Magikoopas on the field never appears with Hammer Bros.

Now models

Unused Models

Broken "Fully Cracked" Frozen Lake

In Shiver City, this model shows a broken "fully cracked" frozen lake that is supposed to be the 3rd model of the frozen lake while Mario ground pounds. Developers changed it so this layer doesn't show as Mario gets kicked out of the area and the lake resets after the second ground pound.

This can be done by using a glitch, however.

Unused Enemies

Fun with palette swapping. You can see the working enemies in action here.

Albino Dino

These enemies appear as living statues in the Crystal Palace, but are never actually fought. However, they can be fought using GameShark codes. They only know one attack, which is a charging ram that hurts Mario. Goombario even has a tattle for them:

This is an Albino Dino.

Albino Dinos are the guards
of this frosty place.
Max HP: 8, Attack Power: 4,
Defense Power: 4

Fire attacks won't work.
Their defense power is huge,
so let's reduce their HP
steadily using our strongest
damage-dealing attacks.

Aqua Fuzzy

A blue Fuzzy. All that's been found is the enemy name and blue palette.

D. Paratroopa

A winged version of the Dark Koopa enemy that was just never used. However, this enemy would later go on to be used in the game`s sequel. They too can be fought with GameShark codes. Their attacks are basically the regular Paratroopa's attacks sped up. If jumped on, they lose their wings and become Dark Koopas. Goombario has a tattle for it as well:

This is a D. Paratroopa.
D. Paratroopas are Para-
troopas who live in the
Toad Town Tunnels.
Max HP: 8, Attack Power: 3,
Defense Power: 2

Hammer attacks won't work
because they're airborne.

They'll lose their wings if
you jump on 'em.

They'll become Dark Koopas
when they fall, but be careful!
They'll do a dizzy attack
once they're grounded.

Red Goomba

Not the sub-boss with the same name.

R Paragoomba

A Red Goomba with wings. Red Paragoombas originally appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3, which this game draws a number of elements from.
