Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Speculation Thread

[FLOOTENKERP]

Well, we wouldn't have the game s in the first place if it wasn't for them. I do believe ris will be a character in the game, but I see nothing wrong with Soul. She looks like a good replacement and is fine. Although, it may just be me since I only play as the boy. But still, it really shouldn't matter. And how can you discredit the time capsule idea wraith? I can think of other ways to do it, but the time capsule just fits, you know?

DPP and GSC take place at the same time... >.>

Well, it does take place in the same generation, but it is basically an older game, so it could work. It is unlikely, but I think it sounds pretty cool. Maybe they just won't allow a Pokemon with different moves to be traded.

The new one looks way too similar to Mario o_O

hmm.....

No, just no. I find it pointless. Time capsule was invented to bring back Pokemon from 3 years before. If it were for FR/LG, maybe, but that's why there's Pal Park. Otherwise, Time Capsule is VERY illogical. I believe it'll be in the same manner as FR/LG compatibility with RSE.

But this game is intended (not meant) to be for DSi. So this game is to endorse the sales of the DSi, so by adding pal-park, they would be ruining the DSi sales. So I believe it will just be a normal trade thing with restrictions.

How do you know that? What if it isn't? Did you even read the rules Floot? Don't say what you don't know. You can THINK that, nothing is wrong with that, but don't say things affirmatively when you don't know for sure.

[FLOOTENKERP]

I've heard (not sure) that there are apps with DSi compatibility. If it has DSi compatibility it is intended for DSi, and adding pal-park would be confusing.

So...you don't know anything? So far, nothing about it either being DSi exclusive or DSi only features has been said.

This is speculation thread, not baseless rumors.

[FLOOTENKERP]

No I don't. But it does seem like this is going to be for it. I'm just saying, I think it will have no way of obtaining gen III Pokemon without getting them from DPPT. Then again, that new building in Goldenrod does seem like a pal-park to me.

What if... they implement the dongle system again?
That wouldn't be so bad, now would it? Or... just trade from DPP to fill that. Or... they'll add Hoenn Pokemon after you beat the E4 or something. I don't know, but they WILL do something.

[FLOOTENKERP]

Yeah, the map scan shows this small battle island. It could contain Hoenn Pokemon there. Although, trading to complete the game is always what the games were intended for, so I believe they will just have you trade them over.

We have a little bit of new information revealed.

An old man (Kurt?) has to do with the Jagged-Ear Pichu event, and we get to see its in battle sprite. Also, the Arcues-Dialga/Palkia/Giratina event, you must take the Arceus to the Ruins of Alph to open up the new area, "Shinto Ruins". You then get your choice of one of the three dragons after some swirling Unown and a hatching egg.

Watch the video.

And there's music

I wonder where those ruins are o__O
Mt.Silver or what?

LOL @ pal park for DPt->HGSS
Those will be able to trade normally...why wouldn't they? Because of JEPichu? There are better solutions for that.

But IMO there will be the time capsule in the game, as replacement for Palpark. The existence of the DSi doesn't kill it's purpose and it's not such a big feature to think about not including it....

If you look into the video at 1:30 you'll see that there a button with a ribbon symbol. It must mean that the contests will appear. I think that the location of the contest must be in the zone next to the National Park.

The Arceus event is awesome!!
Can´t wait to play!!
