Disagreed a bit with the comment that a GS remake would be pointless - i dont own colosseum and have never been to any events, and so have no way of obtaining Lugia or Ho-oh at this moment,

However, also hidden in game data is Johto location data. There are ''two'' Johto location entries in game data (Gold ''and'' Silver?). That suggests that Pokémon may be able to be transferred from Johto to [[bp:Sinnoh|Sinnoh]]. It may be a sign of possible GS remakes, or it may just be dummy data. However, if one looks at DP items - all non-key Generation III items have their data in DP because they can be transferred along with Pokémon via [[bp:Pal Park|Pal Park]]. So, if there were a GS remake with GS items, all things like Johto [[bp:Poké Ball|Poké Balls]] or [[bp:Apricorn|Apricorns]] could be transferred to Sinnoh. But, there is no data about them in DP. However, if that data existed, it would be an overly obvious sign of GS remakes. Nintendo does not want to be predictable, does it? In the event of GS remakes, it could find a way to make these items untradeable. | However, also hidden in game data is Johto location data.

Finally, the strongest point against GS remakes: They are pointless. Pal Park makes it possible to get all old Pokémon without any new games. FR/LG and [[bp:Pokémon Emerald|Emerald]] were necessary to get all Pokémon in Generation III. GS remakes are not. | Finally, the strongest point against GS remakes: They are pointless. Pal Park makes it possible to get all old Pokémon without any new games. FR/LG and [[bp:Pokémon Emerald|Emerald]] were necessary to get all Pokémon in Generation III. GS remakes are not, although some may argue that the opportunity to obtain Ho-oh and Lugia without having the need for a Colosseum game or having to travel to a Nintendo Event would be nice. Also, the legendary trio of GS (Suicune, Raikou, Entei) would be much easier to come by if a GS remake were to become reality - restarting a FR/LG three times to get the three dogs is incredibly time consuming and annoying to do. Also, let me take us back to older generations. [[bp:Pokémon Yellow|Yellow]] was not necessary to get 150 Pokémon in [[bp:Generation I|Generation I]], and Game Freak/Nintendo made it, nor was [[bp:Pokémon Crystal|Crystal]] for the 251 Pokémon in [[bp:Generation II|Generation II]]. Don't forget that there will most likely be a third version of DP. Despite the fact that a third version is "pointless" to catch all the Pokémon, I'm pretty sure it ''will'' be out. So, the same situation may apply to GS remakes. I know, the chance of GS remakes is slim, but it is hardly non-existent. | ||
Don't forget, Generation IV is said to be last by some. If it really is the last Pokémon generation, I am sure that Nintendo will do anything to please fans and maintain the franchise's glory. So, it may mean ''lots'' of games. | Don't forget, Generation IV is said to be last by some.

I wonder what else can be released in the frame of Generation IV. A Sinnoh-based [[bp:Pokémon Puzzle Challenge|puzzle game]]? A Nintendo DS [[bp:Pokémon Card GB|Pokémon Card game]]? I hope for good spin-offs in this generation. | I wonder what else can be released in the frame of Generation IV. A Sinnoh-based [[bp:Pokémon Puzzle Challenge|puzzle game]]?
