Even though the ingame is awesome. After red the Game runs out of content since the Bf is stale and the new move tutors SUCK.(most of them anyways).
 
so.. what are the pokemon exclusives in the games? besides the legendaries.

anyone know? are they the same as the original gold/silver?

That's Thunder. Thunderbolt is in the Goldenrod Department Store.



You originally get Metal Coat after you take the S.S. Anne after you beat the Elite 4. This could have changed since I haven't gotten up to there yet.

Oh wow, that's quite late. I guess I'll be catching wild Magnemite in the hopes that one of them is holding Metal coat, then.

This is why I am not preordering it. Since most console games are just now coming out with great stuff(between Q3 of '09 and Q2 of '10, actually), I want this game to last until Q4. Maybe getting both versions will increase my playtime.
 
Wait what, we get sent back in time and we battle Giovanni?! :happybrain:

I must say i didn't expect that, hope more comes out from this time travel.
 
I can confirm that special Pokeballs from HG/SS, after capture will just show up as Poke ball in dppt. I almost wish there is a PBR 2 now...

There is a celebi event now?
 
Just resetting for a Dratini with Extreme Speed. Came away with this. No Rare Candies to be certain on them (I'm checking at Level 15), but even if I'm just using him for breeding, it will be nice.

sweet, but how do you get the "Ilex Forest" Celebi?

It will presumably be given away at the next movie in Japan (or perhaps the one after that, but it should be one of the two); Serebii just had a Celebi with traits similar to those expected of such a Movie Celebi (fateful encounter tag set to on, etc) hacked and used it for the event.
 
^You don't, apparently. You get the movie Celebi and then the event activates. NEP is what you get from the Ilex forest this time around.
 
giovanni is Silver's father!

DUN DUN DUN!!!

Giovanni's team looks really cool, I wonder if he can be rebattled? Probably not. Anyone thinking if they'll have some super cool cutscene for the time traveling like they did in diamond when diagla was summonded by Cyrus?
 
Sweet, each Legendary gets its own theme. I like Ho-Oh's, it sounds like the music from a Shinto temple. Lugia's has the deep sea bubble sound at the beginning, with the legendary beasts each having their own versions of the original legendary beast theme, with Entei's being the slowest and most dramatic sounding.

I want this game NOW, it's so cool!
 
Hey guys, no one said you can't get an in-game Celebi still. What we know is that Celebi has to have its Fateful Encounter flag marked to activate this event; it's pretty probable they'll distribute one in Japan next year, but who's to say we won't get an Ilex Forest Celebi too, also with the flag? Platinum Shaymin has the same flag, just like Movie Shaymin.




On a side note, Johto Safari Zone has Murkrow and Larvitar. I've found both of them already. Some people have declared Misdreavus is also in, but I haven't found her yet. And no sign of Slugma and Houndour still.
 
@ubers are awesome THANKS FOR FUCKING SPOILING BASTARD!
Im just kidding I dont care but seriously next time think before posting.
 
Any info on the frontier brains? I noticed the castle girl's dressed in yellow now. I think she has pink clothes in Platinum. Same girl, different clothes or a twin or something? Someone should do a quick 21 streak in there to find out.

I just found Mewtwo's battle theme in the form of a capture vid for HGSS, and I must say, I am not too impressed. They ruined his battle music like his sprite. In FireRed/Leafgreen, it sounded cooler because it was at a higher pitch and more dramatic. This sounds like a rip off of a bad James Bond movie.

And yeah I really know what you mean.

Oi! Masuda! NO!
Put more effort into the battle themes next time. Some of the new music's good, and the graphics are amazing for a Pokémon game, but a fair amount of it's pretty lame. Same with a handful of the new sprites too, though Quagsire for example looks lovely. It's as if they spent too much time with the fancy stuff and not on the essentials. Like the follower sprites- that's thousands and thousands of sprites there, 2 frames facing in each direction and then with additional sets for shinies, gender differences and gender difference shinies. And that's for every pokémon they apply to, so it's at least 7888 sprites (or 3944 if you're discounting left/right mirrors) in just normal and shiny with a ton more in formes and gender differences.

Anyways, here it is-

The only problem with Mewtwo is its head. Man, it looks too small... But really, there are so many cool things in this game that the bad things got compensated.

And just confirming my Safari Zone post, Murkrow and Larvitar, both found at Soul Silver (dunno about Heart Gold).
