RE: (1) HEART GOLD AND SOUL SILVER: GS REMAKES CONFIRMED!! [5/7]

Very interesting choice of names. I would have preferred more of the direction they went with the decks in Unseen Forces (Sun Gold/Sea Silver), or the lyrics in the Japanese OK! (Sun Gold/ Moon Silver). I guess the Golden Sun GBA games might cause a problem in both of those, but it's a shame because it seems so obvious to me that Gold version should have been Sun Gold.
In OK! it was 'Golden Sun' and 'Silver Moon'...
Wouldn't have much to do with Golden Sun anyways since the original name is 黄金の太陽...in that case GS will just get translated to something different when it comes out in NA...
but that's beside the point...
Anyone else feel ambivalent about this?
- in contrast to the circumstances for the remake in 3rd Gen, there is already ways to capture all the 492(soon +1) Pokemon between DPt and the GBA games. (Deoxys and Shaymin are event-only)
This will likely greatly change the economy and demand for current 2nd Gen special Pokemon (Ho-ho, Lugia, beasts, Celebi).
All of which currently only obtained by normal means through the NGC games. In a way, easier to spot Pokemon made with cheat.
One fear is that, unless the new GS comes with greater anti-cheat feature (which is the most of what I'm hoping for), it will make it more difficult to identify off-the-bat those said Pokemon-in-demand when they are made with cheat.
Concluding, the first and formost issue I see is that, the legitimate said special Pokemon will decline greatly in value - Replaced by the same ones made with cheat which will saturate the market.
Just throwing this out there I guess (one perspective coming from a battler/collector who played Pokemon for 11 years).
Please discuss.
