Ok, we've heard many things but will it really happen? With Platinum's arrival, there's a certain thing that points to a 2nd gen remake. And from what I've read in other forums, I'm not the only one who believes it. Let's see:
1. It is thought that the Gen I and Gen III storylines take place at the same time, and same goes for Gen II and Gen IV. Think about it. In the original GSC, you could get RBY Pokémon through that trading capsule machine thing. In DP, you can get RSE Pokémon via the Pal Park. Also, durin the RSE era, we got the RB remakes, FRLG (all those initials...). Plus, remember something else. In GSC, when you went to Kanto, the birds weren't there. And they weren't in Johto either. Where did they go? Sinnoh is the most obvious answer, as now, in Platinum, we can catch them once again.
2. The RBY legendary trio, the RSE one and the DPPt one are all available in Platinum. Which one is missing? The GSC one that is. That could be another sign of GS remakes in the horizon. What's more, after the GSC era, Lugia and Ho-Oh have been event-only Pokémon, something that they were not meant to be. Since Lugia and Ho-Oh events are not going to happen and aren't really expected, why not making them available in-game once more?
What do you think?
Just forget what you read above. The remakes are now (8/5/2009) confirmed and they'll hit stores in Japan this fall.
So any speculations about what new features they'll have? What will have changed from the original Gold 'n' Silver games?
