Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Release: March 14, 2010

They'll also come with Preorder bonuses! Ho-Oh and Lugia figurines for HeartGold and SoulSilver Respectively

Is anyone else excited for this game!?!?!?!?!? :yurp:

lol, I already have a preorder down on both versions, SoulSilver being my main one, HeartGold being the one I start over, over and over again when I wanna play through it again.

The sad part is that the 5th gen needs to out do HGSS, which will be hard considering everything they stuffed into this one.

My starter with be Totodile!!!
I did some dedication vids when they first announced Pokemon HGSS
check em out (They're battle vids if your interested)

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I want these, i'll get Lugia, my fav legendary!
And Totodile will be my starter too! :DD

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Im a water trainer so Tododile would be my choice.

I think Gold/Silver/Crystal were my favorite of the series. Nice to have a remake :P

It was also nice that I got Gold/Silver two days before they came out. (Good to know people in the right place at the right time)

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I never got gold or silver (but i wanted them)

Instead i got Crystal, but that was awesome, the three legendary dogs :D

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I'll be getting SoulSilver, and starting with Cyndaquil

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I'll be getting HeartGold, since I originally had Silver.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Soul Silver, with my original starter Chika!

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Soul Silver FTW

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Seems like Soul Silver is the clear favorite

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Of Course!

Lugia owns :3

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

This game also makes me look forward to the 13th movie!
It's gonna have 5th Gen Pokemon in it!

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Been hearing about that!

Sounds cool

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Hrm... better take the 13th Movie to an anime topic

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Good idea or this will be going away from the original topic xD

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

For anyone who plans to Buy HG and or SS

there will be a Shiny Pichu event at they're local GameStop from January 30th to February 13th. Trading Shiny Pichu to your HG or SS will unlock the Notch Earred Pichu event in which the Pichu (from the Arceus movie) will join your party.
The Notch Earred Pichu is UN TRADABLE to any other game (even between HG and SS)

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

And we don't have a gamestop in England.

Tho i won't be surprised if Game will do it here!

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I'm a big fat cheater, I abuse my Gamefly privileges and rent 2 of either, Diamond, Pearl or Platinum, and I download numerous event Pokemon then transfer them to my Main Platinum game, I should have 5-6 by the end of the Pichu event, if you need one I'll trade ya one!

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

lol I never thought about that. Good way of getting alot of Pichus :D

During the COD4 beta, I made several email accounts and got a bunch of codes and gave them to my friends.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Yeah I did that with Darkrai, Deoxys, Shaymin, Arceus and Dragonite

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

It doesn't matter version you choose, every legendary is readily available in these games.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Well obviously, although theres no legitimate Mew, Jirachi, Shaymin other then events/bonus disks

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I'm not talking about through the Pal Park, I'm talking about on the cartridge itself (That goes for every starter too).

But, yes, other then the event Pokemon.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Well in theory you also can't get the Regis in Platinum unless you use the event Regigigas, so if you don't get that then there no Regis.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I'm not talking about Platinum...I'm talking about Heart Gold and Soul Silver!

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Well how would you get Regice, Regirock, Registeel, Regigigas, Cresselia, Mespirit, Azelf, Uxie, Heatran, Leafeon, Glaceon, Magnezone, and Probopass without the aid of Platinum? :yurp:

I'm being a buzz kill aren't I? lol

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I'm grabbing Soul Silver. I'll probably start with Cyndaquil, I usually pick the fire Pokemon to start with. I'm really bad though, this is the forth time I'll be buying a Gold/Silver/Crystal era game (yes, I have all three of the originals).

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

HeartGold for me! Chikorita as my starter for sure.

I'm not a hardcore pokemon gamer, I enjoy them and have at least one from every Gen (except the Platinum gen. because I don't have a DS anymore). I definitely need another DS now.

I have no doubts that Silver/Gold/Crystal are by far the best generation of pokemon games out there. Although HGSS will never replace the experience of the originals, I'm excited to see how they compare.

On a more Sombre note, I went to go play my Crystal version and turns out I can't save the game anymore.. the internal battery must be dead. Darn! :(

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Similar locations to Platinum cause the latter four to evolve. Regis aren't technically in Platinum, Pixies are roaming legendaries.

I'm not sure about Cresselia and Heatran.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Theres a Nostalgia feature (as I like to call it), theres a Key Item you get in HGSS where you can change the music in HGSS to the original GSC music (of course new areas like the GTS and Battle Frontier get mixes as though they where in the original GSC)

I'm playing the Japanese HeartGold.
Currently my team is:

Feraligatr (Lv. 33 Surf/Shadow Claw/Ice Fang/Cut)
Ampahros (Lv. 33 Thunderpunch/ShockWave/Cotton Spore/Headbutt)
Togekiss (Lv. 24 Aura Sphere/Magical Leaf/Air Slash/Extrasensory)
Growlithe (Lv. 30 Fire Fang/Overheat/Bite/Reversal)
Eevee (Lv. 24 Shadow Ball/Quick Attack/Dig/Secret Power) (SHINY)

I'll admit, I was a little cheap and my Diamond version helped...
Traded Togetic over to Diamond and taught it magical Leaf, Evolve it, taught it Aura Sphere and Air Slash, sent it back with a TM for Overheat...
Trained Feraligatr and Ampharos and Growlithe a wee bit....

BUT EEVEE IS LEGIT!

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I am so making a rain dance team. Let there be rain!

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Can't wait for SS! :o Now I have friends to play competitively against! Pokemon is reviving for me =D

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I will surely get HeartGold
i will like a rematch with my friends at school this time :P

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Has anyone heard the new Pokemon themes? Such as "Summoning the Legends" "Vs Lugia" or "Vs Ho-Oh"?

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Yeah, old news.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Little bit of news, they're offering figurines for HeartGold and SoulSilver pre-orders, Ho-Oh and Lugia for HeartGold and SoulSIlver respectively.
It seems like they won't be offering the Arceus figurine for when you preorder both. So far the only place seeming to do this is Gamestop.
I put images at the top of the first page

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I can't wait for these. Pokemon is timeless. Never gets old.

I'll probably pick Cyndaquil from the start since Grass pokes suck for the most part and Waters are too overpowered and there are better ones later on than Gator.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

I will get HeartSilver for sure, silver is my favourite pokemon game so far and I would love to see it touched up for the ds.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

It would seem Silver is the popular one to go with

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Treeko > Bulbasaur > Chikoreeta > Turtwig
Charmander > Torchic > Chimchar > Cyndaquil
Totodile > Squirtle > Piplup > Mudkip

Yes, those are greater than's, not arrows. I consider the best to be on the left.

Re: Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver
 

Here is my question, does this version include all 4 continents and any pokemon past gen 3? I was really disappointed in the fact that Pearl only had like 150 pokemon and only 1 continent it was like taking a step all the way back to the orginal games.
