(2) Heart Gold and Soul Silver Screenshots, Rising Rivals Scans [5/9]
- Thread starter Water Pokémon Master
- Start date
finally the wait is over i remember first getting the game when i was 4 now im 13 almost 10 long years. I have never gotten a pokemon game from japan but soul silver might be the first.
Besides photos will there be a video of the actual gameplay like there was with Platinum? Or just screenshots? I would like to see an actual video to prove it for sure that there will be remakes. Is there a legit on on Youtube yet? Thanks.
I think that it will only work with your starter.Rotom479 said:
It may be an early game mechanic. Like after you get back to Elm's Lab with the Togepi egg it may go into a pokeball.
Heh... Chikorita's overworld srpite looks like a blob with a leaf on its head. Hopefully, the other Johto starters look better. My guess is that the Pokémon follows the main character only for the segment up to the point where you battle Silver for the first time. Since this was not in the original series, my guess is that this is an expansion of the original plot in GSC, describing what parts of what happened in Johto in more detail. That would make sense, as Johto is a fairly small region compared to some of the other regions.
I wonder what new areas and events they will add besides Kanto and Johto? Maybe they will have some more events surrounding some of the areas of the game, such as Dark Cave, Union Cave, Whirl Islands, Mt. Mortar, and Mt. Silver. There is a lot of areas in Johto that can be expanded upon, and perhaps some new events could be added to Kanto as well.

Do we know for sure that there will be a kanto?
I cannot say that we will get Kanto for certain, but I think there is a very strong likelihood that we will get it, because it is integral to the plot for GSC. First of all, the Pokémon league is located in Kanto, as you have to travel east of New Bark Town to get there. There are events such as the S.S. Aqua, Team Rocket sabotaging the Power Plant, Cinnabar's volcano erupting, Janine replacing Koga as a Gym Leader, Blue replacing Giovanni as a gym leader. There is also Professor Oak talking about a White Rock in Kanto during the Shaymin event in DPPt, which was not present in FireRed / LeafGreen, so I would assume they would elaborate on that more. Finally, there is Red going to Mt. Silver to train.
I think that if Nintendo were to remove Kanto from the re-make of Gold and Silver, they would be doing a huge retcon (changing the story of GSC dramatically). In order to make a maximum profit off of the series, they would have to not only find ways to please the newer generations of players, but also please the people that originally owned GSC. To me, being able to travel back and forth between both regions and gather up to 16 gym badges, and learn about what happened after Pokémon RBY was my most favorite feature of GSC.
I think HeartGold / SoulSilver is just as much of a sequel to FireRed / LeafGreen as Pokémon GSC was a sequel to Pokémon RBY. While other games simply had references to other regions, GSC was the only one that included one of the other regions entirely, and was a very direct sequel to the events that happened in Kanto. What would Pokémon Diamond and Pearl be like if it included Hoenn? While Johto and Kanto are connected by land, it would be possible to just have a boat connecting Sinnoh to Hoenn. If they did make Pokémon Diamond and Pearl that way, then Hoenn would have to be somewhat abbreviated, just like Kanto is in Pokémon Gold and Silver. Still, I think it would interest fans if that happened.
So in the end, I believe Nintendo will remake the regions to be faithful to Pokémon GSC, and to keep fans that owned Pokémon GSC, and liked being able to visit both regions, happy.

Don't worry there will be Kanto since the originals did. Plan on Kanto being part of the new remakes just as it did before. I just hope they add the D/P additions otherwise it would not fit in with the 4th gen.

Probably different balls made.
There probably won't be any new balls.
If there were, D/P/t wouldn't be able to recognize the balls the Pokémon were captured in.

Does anyone know what time in eastern American time Pokemon Sunday is on so I can tune in next week?
The apricots were a big thing about GSC, though. I think that they'd keep the apricots, but adapt the balls made. The yellow apricot making Quick Ball instead of Fast Ball. The pink apricot making Luxury Ball instead of Heart Ball. They do the same thing, just with different names.

I thought it was a Gulpin when I first saw the screen shot.
This is absolutely amazing! They're showing even more details than Platinum does. I will certainly be importing this.

I totally agree, in fact, I'm worried about following Pokemon. What if you can't evolve your starter like in yellow. As for the sugi art, it just means more ugly cards for the tcg.
