Unused graphic for Hahn in PSIV

Did you know that there’s an unused sprite for Hahn in PSIV? It’s a spell-casting graphic using two hands, like the graphic for Gryz’s War Cry and many of Raja’s skills.

I found this out myself when messing around with the PSIV disassembly almost a year ago, but have seen it before, as it’s included in the hell mode and purgatory version of the game.

Pretty interesting, I wonder if they intended to give Hahn another skill at some stage?

Lots of stuff gets discarded in the process of "cleaning up" a game. Especially if it's stuff they decided to not use in the name of balance. Sonic 1 has a pair of goofy looking snorkles that go unused, so there's a history of this happening even within Sonic Team.
