Images
Uh, what's up with the images? I wanna see the covers NOW!!! Sidnoea 04:15, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Request denied. We've just moved over to a new setup so there's a glitch in the thumbnails. No game boxart has yet been released, all we have is the logo. TTEchidna 04:18, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Couldn't we simply use the HeartGold and SoulSilver logos that are currently on the Japanese Nintendo website? It's the official visual representation of the new games currently, so my opinion is that they are best used until other official images are revealed.
- They're not showing up due to a glitch, as TTEchidna already stated. Frugali 06:20, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Players
Why does it say "2 players simultaneous"? The others say "1-4 players simultaneous", is it a mistake or did Nintendo just changed the whole idea behind the gameplay?Mr. Charlie 09:11, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- I'm guessing that's coz nothing's confirmed, but its fairly obvious that the two-player connection will remain. While it's quite likely the likes of the Union Room will let more than two players connect at once, I'll let TTE make that call. — THE TROM — 09:23, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Unless we hear from Nintendo that this game is only possible to play with two people I really think it should at least read "1-2 players simultaneous." Multiplayer-only games exist, but it would be extremely unprecedented if this was one of them--Barakku 17:12, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Gen V
Shouldn't this game be a Generation V game? AlienX2008 11:06, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- I don't see why, as long as it's fully compatible with DPP. We'll find out more later, I guess. --((Marton imos)) 11:07, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Generation V would introduce new Pokémon. As this is a remake, we're leaning towards Gen IV. — THE TROM — 11:09, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- But didn't the originals open Gen II? This could just be the front cover of the Gen V book. They can program in new Pokémon and not use them if they like. Gywall Talk 11:11, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- But FireRed and LeafGreen did not start Generation III.--Purimpopoie 11:13, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- You're missing the point, as Gen II introduced the Time Capsule which blocked current generation data entering the previous generation. Gywall Talk 11:22, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- No Gywall, once again, it is you who is missing the point. Just as FireRed LeafGreen were the same generation, so will be HeartGold and MoonSilver.Max King 17:11, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- They're Gen IV games. Dammit, everyone quit wishing for Gen V or the end of Pokémon already. TTEchidna 14:42, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hah, Gywall got told. Isn't it obvious they are Gen 4? I really cant understand how people think they could be Gen 5? What has changed between them and Platinum? Nothing is what. Max King 17:10, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- I'm going to make one point here really clear right now. While I have absolutely no authority to do this, if you are wishing for the end of Pokémon, I see no reason why you should be here, and I'm going to have to ask whoever is wishing for the end to leave. Generation V, however, you can wish for all you like, but its not likely to appear until at least 2010, possibly even 2011.--Thomas Michael William Patrick Sales 15:18, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I see even more proof that these are NOT going to be Gen V games (which you guys seem to have missed). What are the only times a new region has been introduced in the main series games? AT THE START OF A GENERATION. HG & SS are NOT introducing a new zone, they're returning to an old zone. Diachronos 17:16, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, and remember that new generations have come out when a new GameBoy or Nintendo portable console is introduced. Wish will likely happen in 2011, because of the usual two year gap. I also wanted them to be gen. V, but that would've messed up the two year gap.--AOS 04:06, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- Don't forget that besides introducing a whole new region, each generation starts with new player characters!--I'm Pokelova(Talk) 10:38, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
Link for the french article
Since there has been no announcement for an european release yet, the french article bears a tentative title : Pokémon versions Coeur d'Or et Âme d'Argent (Noms pressentis). Godspeed ! --InvocK 11:10, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Cool, thanks, I've updated the interwiki link. — THE TROM — 11:28, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Another Feeble suggestion
Should we mix in the article about the Gold and Silver Remake rumor into this one. Its good to give an insight to what happened before the games release.--Clarky13 11:35, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Yes yes Link the rumer page to this but what of Crystal? Pokémon Crystal Mind? Random Chaos ☆☃ 12:58, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Seeing as there may not be a third game remake, Crystal has nothing to do with these gems--FF(edits•talk) 13:02, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Actually, you never really know. They might include some Crystal elements in the G/S remakes, the most obvious of which (aside from gender choice which has since become standard) would probably be the Battle Tower. --Shiningpikablu252 14:29, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Or another Battle Frontier, bringing the total to 3, reminding that 2 of them are in Gen IV. And the probability is that they include all the elements from Crystal in HG/SS, like they did include all the elements from Blue in FR/LG. Yellow doesn't count as it was the fourth Gen I game and it was a special version rather than a common version, even though it had improvements over Blue and introduced prototypes of game mechanics that would make their real final introduction in G/S. That's why they didn't remake it. Pokemon lover 17:57, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Erm... There wasn't much to include from Blue. And what elements from Blue do you see in FR/LG? --Maxim 18:03, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- OK, maybe there aren't that much elements (if any) from Blue taken to FR/LG but the only reason I mentioned them was for the sake of comparison. Pokemon lover 18:22, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hmmm... no elements of Blue in FRLG? The cries? The catch rates? The fact that it was translated? TTEchidna 23:40, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- If anything, they'll include from Crystal the legendary gerbils' battle music, Sneasel appearing in the Ice Cave, and Weezing in the Burnt Tower (I hope!), but not much else. Missingno. Master wants YOU! Join the Order of the Glitch! (my talk page) 11:01, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- Well, with exception of the cries (they're from R/G; Blue didn't change them), you're right, TTE. And as for Missingno. Master, of course they'll include much more from Crystal than that, IMO. =D Pokemon lover 14:52, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Leaf and Kris
Been thinking and thought on the possibility that Leaf may have a role in HG/SS. I know that she (as of now) is only the female player character in FR/LG but maybe Game Freak could give her a role in HG/SS *fighting alongside Red in a double battle, maybe XD*. The same goes for Kris. Pokemon lover 18:26, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- BTW, this is definitely the final proof that we need to make all Blue's articles, Green's articles. I know this confusion is only present outside of Japan since the Japs had R/G while we had R/B (although FR/LG should've been enough to clear all the confusion but whatever). Pokemon lover 18:29, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- My guess would be that if you chose a girl then you fight Leaf and Mount Silver, if you chose the boy, then you fight red at mount silver. Max King 18:31, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Well, it's a possibility, although it seems unlikely. Pokemon lover 18:34, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- A double battle seems even more unlikely to me no offence, although again it is a possibility. I think the most likely is that sexism shall prevail, and Red will be battled in Mount Silver, regardless of whether the player is a boy or girl, and leaf wont get so much as a mention. I'm praying we dont have Kanto in the remakes, however i am sure we will, so maybe she might make a cameo there. Max King 18:38, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Again, it's all possibilities at the moment. And why do you want no Kanto in HG/SS, even knowing it'll be there for sure, as well as the Sevii Islands? It'll be interesting how they're going to redesign them and how they'll change the plot with the advancement of 3 years in game time. Pokemon lover 18:42, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Max King: I will be pissed off if we DON'T have Kanto in the remakes. No, I DON'T care that it GSC Kanto felt small and rushed. It still provided with extra gameplay and made the world more massive (GSC has the highest number of cities in any Pokémon game to this day), and I like being able to know how Kanto evolved in the 3 years between RGB and GSC, being able to earn 16 badges, and getting to fight Red (who had the highest-leveled team in the whole series until Platinum came out). Plus, GSC Kanto was meant to be a extra region. So who cares if it isn't as big and doesn't have a main quest as long as a "main" region?
- Pokemon lover: I'm positive that they won't make what you suggest, because that would mess up continuity. In the FR/LG plot, there's Red OR Leaf, not BOTH. In other words, both can't exist in the same continuity. Plus, turning the final GSC battle into a double one would seem too much a change for a remake (And a change that I wouldn't want, personally. I like thinking of the last battle as me fighting with the until then strongest Pokémon trainer in the world, the champion and protagonist of the first game. Making me fight TWO trainers at the same time [as opposed to just fighting THE trainer] would ruin that IMO). They will most likely make it so that you fight the one whose gender is the same as yours. Spideym 12:54, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Anime
Many are out there speculatin' that the anime will return to Johto, any validity in adding this? Aura-Knight 23:12, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Nope. Not til there's any substance to the rumors. — THE TROM — 02:10, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
