Official Poke'mon Thread

Personally I think the best games were Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold and Silver.
I lost interest in the games after them because the new Pokemon were just stupid

Nothing will beat the original 150/1 characters

These news releases might be pretty good. The gameplay will be the same and all of the first 2 gens of Pokemon will be there but just with updated graphics and animation.

I was thinking more on track with this thread.

Heart Gold or Soul Silver?

I think for me it will depend on what the pokemon differences are.

Based on the old games-
Ekans, Vulpix, Meowth, Ladyba, Delibird, Skarmory and Phampy (and their respective evolutions) are NOT in Gold.

Sandshrew, Growlithe, Mankey, Spinarak, Gligar, Mantine and Teddiursa (inc evolutions) are NOT in Silver.

Looking at that, I'll get Silver as I've not used Phampy before and it looks pretty cool, but hopefully they will include ALL the pokemon, not just up to 250 in the game and mix it up a bit.

To be honest, with Pokemon XD concentrating on G/S pokemon and with a high amount of them being in Platinum, I'm getting kinda sick of the Johto pokeys...

IMO they shouldnt make more pokemon, theres more than enough variety now. They should cut out alll the crap ones like dunsparce and make a game including only the best ones (with no legendaries, cuz they suck).

You should play Pokemon championship for a living I know a Guitar Hero freak who 'thinks' he can do that. It was on the news, he left school.

I think I saw that on the news too. Is that the scrawny kid with long brown hair?

I've played alot of pokemon and I've been to alot of tournaments but its not often I come first. I have just over 16 local friends who play pokemon so our tournaments are usually pretty hectic but I usually end up in 3rd place..

So yeah.. Not worth quitting Uni for, but I'll give anyone a run of their money!

No probs. I always buy both games anyways so I'll have lots of requests hehehe

Just a thought, With HG/SS - chances are they may add a bit to it.... which i can see being some hoenn related islands cos i think they are trying to move away with the whole GBA thing, especially since the DSi doesn't have a GBA slot.. This is going to cause problems.. I hope that the new games aren't DSi dependant either..


Booyah!

Edit: Also, does anyone else feel that the western POKEMON logo looks alot more childish than its Japanese counterpart?
