CONTOUR AFFECTS PALMS AND SOLES FOR ALL DERGS!
GLIMMER AND UNDERBELLY PUT GRADIENTS ON IMP FEET AND FOREARMS

Y'ALL NOC GETS MOUSTACHES WITH POISON!
LIONFISH GIVES MIRROR "MASKS"
SHADOW MALE MIRRORS HAVE FREAKING POOLS OF SHADOW
SPIRAL BABES GET THESE SUPER LONG TONGUES WITH UNDERBELLY (and some other genes like Lionfish!)
VIPERA GIVES MOST DERGS SOME MORE TEETH
THE BOW (from the archer set) AND CUTLASSES GIVE SOME DERGS SOME COOL POSES
BABY NOC SCALES MAKE A LITTLE HEART (look closely!)
GLIMMER GIVES MIRROR DERGS "HELMETS"
GIRAFFE GENE ON WC'S GIVES THEM LIL SMILES! :)
SNAPPERS ARE MISSING SOME LINEART OF THE FACE WITH FILIGREE
DARKENED EYE SCAR+SAUCER STARE ON FEMALE SD'S GIVE EM SLIT PUPILS
MARVA'S EYES+GLOWING EYES GIVES COLOURED EYE SHADOWS!
And can y'all believe that ridgie concept art didn't give em long snoots but LONG HORNS???
RUNES ALSO AFFECT MALE (adult) PC PEARLS!!
Glimmer/Underbelly have so many effects, I'm just gonna list some of the important ones here folks. You can always play around with the scrying yourself!
GLIMMER+SNAPS=COOL GRADIENTS
COATLS+UNDERBELLY=LOWER JAW COLOURED
THE ALCHEMIST EYEWEAR LEAVES A LITTLE OUTLINE OF DRAGON FACES!
Alright so this is a long one so bear with me here.
Tip: The gene "contour" has been used here to highlight the wings. As the gene doesn't affect other fins!
Look at baby bogs. You see those fins near the head?
Another quote?? YEs ok you guys are actually really good at explaining things
I have only realized this, but Every one of the Beastclan Ambassadors has both the symbol of the beastclan, and the flight they are in. The anti ambassadors only have the beastclan symbol, twice.
The snakes, its blended into the patterned outfit they wear, so they're actually very hard to notice. Its a lot more obvious on the nature ones. However, this is true of all the festival familiars this year.
Also the Kitsune familiar has the wind emblem in the opposite direction. This may be intentional. After all, the wind started blowing the other way!
GLIMMER+SNAPS=COOL GRADIENTS
COATLS+UNDERBELLY=LOWER JAW COLOURED
WILDCLAWS GET SHINY CLAWS
STARMAP GIVES BABY IMPS ANOTHER "FACE"
PATTEREND PRIMARY+UNDERBELLY/GLIMMER+BOGS(M/F)=THROAT GRADIENT?
JUST GONNA LEAVE SOME UNUSED ART HERE
From this thread from 2013
Some unused baby art. I think originally babies were going to have both male and female poses
From Neondragon's (Undel's] DA page

Several years ago Akiri and I were working on a prototype version of Flight Rising. The imperial dragons were one of our three original breeds (none of which are in-game anymore) and boasted an impressive 19 colors and 2 genes. :-)
Here they are! It's fun to see how they've changed.

ICE CRYSTAL+MALE SD=RAINBOW ANTENNAE
WHERE'S THE MALE MIRROR'S ARM???
PIEBALD + THYLACINE COVERS SOME OF THE PRIMARY GENE!
MIDNIGHT CAPSULE=SHADOW PRIMAL (the colours, I mean)
THE ALCHEMIST EYEWEAR LEAVES A LITTLE OUTLINE OF DRAGON FACES!
THE DRAGON EMOJIS ARE COLOURED TO MATCH THE FLIGHT THE DERGS ARE FROM!
Ex. Fae are from Starwoods Strands so they're pink for Arcane

Look at baby bogs. You see those fins near the head?
Those fins are easily seen on the female adult bog. Plus she also has a SINGLE large fin going down the back of her neck.
Now the male bog is a different story. He seems to have two fins going down the back of his neck and where'd those fins we saw on the baby go???

The lattice equipment really shows off where the wings are
AHEM so apparently I have been informed that this is in the fr lore. Bogsneaks have varying number of fins with some having six and others having none. Who knew?
WASP+SMIRCH+SNAPPER FEMALE=WANING MOON CRESCENT ON HER FACE
TUNDRA BABY+POISON MAKES THE PADDING ON THEIR FINGERTIPS CHANGE COLOUR!
FEMALE SPIRAL + RUNES= HEART (on her cheek)
SPIRAL EYES + MIRROR = SLIT EYES??? (ALSO HAPPENS ON MALE SD'S!)
FAE HATCHLINGS HAVE SERAPH MARKING ON THEIR FINS, BUT ADULTS DON'T
GUARDIAN HATCHLINGS DON'T HAVE OKAPI STRIPES ON THEIR LEGS
CRACKLE GIVES BABY SPIRALS A "SEXY LIP" MARKING
On female guardians with petal, some colours present a distinct neck vs. chest fin but some colours just don't :)
FEMALE WC'S AND BOTH MALE AND FEMALE COATLS HAVE teeny tiny FANGS. But they're hatchlings don't
MIST SERAPH+MALE RIDGIES=whatever you want to call this
ULTRAMARINE SERAPH+ANY DERG=absolute black, that is colour #000000 on their wings
ok so this one is kinda an optical illusion. but if ya scroll past baby spirals with dark sclera and lionfish, they kinda look scared/concerned (doesn't happen all the time though but easier to see with light coloured eyes :)
OPAL + MALE WC'S = LIL SMILES :)
PYTHON+FEMALE COATLS=a 
ON THEIR LEG
ON THEIR LEG
BABY BOG+FILIGREE=lil hidden face :)
GIRAFFE+COATL HATCHIES= MORE PRNOUNCED SMILE :)
Baby spirals have a little bit of wing over their ears. Oh and while you're here, which way is the baby spiral's body even going???
The absolute classic; guardian males stand on their tails. OUCH
Tundras and guardians have a special mark on their wings with ringlets!
Lion headress apparel gives earrings to dergs with ears and literal nose rings to ridgies!
Logas are called as such because they have the FR logo on their wing!!
Now this might not make sense to some of you, but @Aequorin has a lot of dersg that are important for the lorebooks. (Sorry for the ping!) But these are just some examples :)
Capsule makes a transparent lower jaw on baby coatls!
And the mask just goes over the screaming mirror's mouth like that...
oh and a bog's tongue is so powerful it just straight-up rips through the mask itself

Oh and Ridgies with masks is....
Vipera on faes and tundras gives them part of the hypnotic gene! (on their wings/fins)
Opal on skydancer females makes a sort-of cheap Ice rune on their thighs
The slight eyewing has "rhyming" with flight rising+it has the logo colours! (Probably because it's an anniversary fam)
Crystal causes the circular shading on the pearlcatcher's pearl to be more hexagonal.

There's this that I just didn't know how to word any better so here's a direct quote :)

If you make an error in a saved search on the AH, you can save over it by naming a new search the same thing. You don't have to delete the previous save and remake it.
ex. I save a search as "Bar Hatchlings" but I forget to include the gene Bar. I run that saved search, then add bar from the list and search again. I save this new search as Bar Hatchlings, which replaces my old saved search and fixes the error.

Male SD's have four pairs of "horns" (look under the jaw) while females only have three (but they're bigger)!
And another quote because the user provided links and everything :)

That first old Imperial was released as free lineart at one point; I’m not sure if it was ever posted to dA, but it was definitely on Undel’s website.
Another unused breed is the Swiftwing! I don’t think there’s any trace of them onsite anymore, though.... #onlyPreLairTabKidsRemember
edit: ALSO, while looking through dA, found some deity concept art! Here’s an early Lightweaver, two “Fire Lord”s (imagine the A:tlA jokes…), and a Tidecaller! There might be others floating around the internet somewhere; some other pieces in neondragon/Undel’s gallery bring the deities to mind, but they’re not confirmed concept art in the description.
Smaller things that might be of interest… Female Nocturnes are “missing” some pattern detail on the elbow triangle wing crease in lots of genes; you’ll see it if you scry it, and same can go for Fae fins. I think some Obsidian genes also yield a #000000 void.
