Pichu and Pikachu are very similar in color. Pichu being a bit lighter in some artwork. The Pikachu colored Pichu actually isn't Pikachu colored at all. It's darker the same way that a shiny Pikachu is.

The reason it's called a Pikachu colored Pichu is because shiny is essentially a slang term created by the fans. It's never been officially used by Nintendo. It's more of a PR term than a literal meaning.
Yes, you are correct. The closest that Nintendo has ever come to "naming" the Shiny Pokemon is "Alternately-colored".
Probably not official but in the TCG when it was still being done by Wizards of the Coast there was "Shining" pokemon.



Pokewalk. It's like putting a Pokemon in the Day Care, but you walk around IRL!

Size comparison if anyone cares.

Pokewalk sounds interesting. It might make training at least a little easier due to the fact that you can carry it around at school and such, but it also sounds too similar to that Poket Pikachu thing.

The pedometer seems interesting.

I'll probably use it a lot seeing as I like to walk. It'll make training a lot easier and actually motivate me to EV train my pokemon.

I think the PokeWalk will actually be really useful. You likely won't be able to EV train ON the thing, but you EV train BEFORE doing that. As I've said before, I am currently stuck in...four Pokemon games where I have to grind to move forward and I don't want to.

And, I still carry around my old Pokemon Pikachu GS in my pocket (yay being a geek). If I had a PokeWalk, I wouldn't really change anything, I'd just be getting more out of it.

Grindfests would become a walk in the park!

@ Pun.

But yes, I am definetly excited for this also. How hard is it to carry in your pocket throughout the school day or during a day at the mall, the garden, the crematorium, the morgue, the graveyard, or the tattoo parlor.
I mean, literally any place you could go would gain experience for your Pokemon.

I'm starting to get a little bit confused by some of the information I just heard.

Apparently Cynthia, Arceus, and the weather pokemon you mentioned are all in this game.

It's starting to make me wonder what kind of remake this will be, seeing as none of those things are even remotely related to the original. Should be interesting.

Not to mention romours of getting lvl 1 dialga, palkia and Garatina.

Meh, it ruins the whole idea of trading (other then HG/SS exclusives) because you can catch just about every pokemon in this game without the need of any other game.

Plus, some of the stuff like having D/P/G and K/G/R along with Lugia and Ho-oh ruins the idea of each version/region having there special pokemon.

I bet they'll add mewtwo as well.

No I'm talking about a whole different remake for Crystal version. Crystal was more story based than the other ones. Also was Kris in the Japanese Crystal version?
:ohwell:

I agree, though, I have to admit I'm a bit happy, since I don't personally have / can't afford a DS and am going to have to play on an emulator.

It's just their way of sugarcoating it for the younger fans because they don't want to upset the little ones that their favorite legendary isn't there to capture, and that they have to trade for what they want, blah, blah, blah!

This is the remake of JOHTO, not Hoenn or Sinnoh! At least make the GTS used for something!

As long as the Safari Zone's open in Kanto (If Kanto will be playable), and I don't have to get action replay for unlocking Cerulean Cave, I'll be happy.

Now if Latias/Latios somehow get involved, we're gonna have problems!

I was reading up and apparently ALL 493 Pokemon will be able to follow you. (like said above)

I can't imagine a Wailord following me, but I wonder if there will be limits. Such as sea pokemon can only follow you in the sea, and the rest of the Pokemon can only follow you on Water.

I wonder if they'll also be messing with the Surf mounts also. Can I actually ride my Wailord instead of riding a very strange looking .. creature?

That's interesting.

While some people have mentioned disdain at the thought of R/S/E legends being included it does seem that they are at least trying to go all out with this. Honestly, I think the inclusion of those legends outside of Jirachi is kind of odd. All Pokemon being able to follow you is a pretty big deal. And honestly, it's kind of nice to see that they are not content with remaking G/S in the strictist fashion. At least this way the game will have more playtime.

This game will be Pokemon at it's absolute best. No doubt about that.

I can't wait until I can walk around with my Pidgeot!

A couple new updates.

Battle Frontier is comfirmed.

Red is the frontier master.

Prof. Elm turns his daughter into a Pokemon...?

I'm pretty sure my source is reliable. ;)

No...that doesn't make sense. We KNOW Mt. Silver is in the game, how can Red cover Mt. Silver AND the Battle Frontier?

Serebii confirmed that Mt. Silver is in -- "The map of Johto in the background confirms that the game heads east towards Kanto and shows Route 28 by Mt. Silver. "

So...yeah. >_>

And wait, since when does Prof. Elm have a daughter? Unless...are they making the opposite gender Elm's kid? That would irk me. They should make it a random kid that lives in the same town. Like the Rival from D/P/Pt.

I must say, though...HG/SS is looking BAD*** right now.

Followed by "I'm going to be a great Pokemon Professor!"

Daughter or son? You decide.
I decide she-male.

It's hard to decide based on sprites tbh. I always thought that Bugsy was a female actually.

But I thought there WAS dialogue that referred to her as Prof. Elm's "daughter". I could check later since I'm not too far in Crystal now.

This is what I'm probably confused with.

What are your sources, because seriously, none of that makes sense other then the BF.

Agreed. I can't wait to get it :D

I don't follow.
Um... I didn't mean graphics-wise...I mean overall it looks like it's going to be awesome. >_>
To be honest, I couldn't care less about graphics for the most part.

Also, Elm does have a son, but not a daughter.
Now that I remember his kid, I actually always thought it was a girl...

EDIT: Also, am I the only one who's excited that we'll be getting a set of overworld Pokemon sprites?

...Well, undoubtedly. But yeah, I'm excited for them.

I'm such a sprite geek. >.>

I agree with bowser king, this information is neither confirmed or hinted at in any way, or plausible. Share your source or fess up to lying.

http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?t=399532&page=8

That's the real confirmed information that I respect.

Pokemon in PokeWalk picture is
Larvitar not

My source = http://zip.4chan.org/v/imgboard.html

After reviewing, you guys are probably right about the information being false. Sorry for spreading rumors that may be wrong, guys. :ohwell:

Someone from the same source mentioned that the game will be DSi exclusive, but in some of the game art, you can see the DS logo in the corners, not a DSi logo.
