Pokémon Gold and Silver Information

Turn It On

Not only will you see the lovely 52-color palette being utilized, but you'll also notice that you can now choose the look of the new pop-up windows that you will use throughout the game. There are 8 different pre-set styles to select from.

Miss your Pokemon from your previous versions, go on, transfer them over now. You'll even be able to print those from your Red and Blue versions after you've done so.

The Game Begins

Professor Ochid (as in previous Japanese versions) tells you about the Pokemon World and prepares you for your journey ahead.

Ash is no longer the Hero. The new trainer isn't named yet but at Nintendo's Space World Expo, he was known as Gold, Hiroki, Tetsuo and Takashi for the Gold version. And Silver, Kamon, Tooru and Masao in the Silver version.

Your Rival

More evil than the one in previous versions. This time, he has stolen a Pokemon from Pokemon Expert, Dr. Utsugi and has one that's much more powerful than your starting Pokemon.

In Real Time

Unlike previous versions where you can play at any time. Pokemon Gold and Silver requires you to play the game at all times throughout the day should you want to catch all the different types of Pokemon. The game runs in real time so once you set the clock, it'll show the current time and the environments will change accordingly. At night, as in real life, the game scenes will get dark. Same goes for daytime of course.

The PokeWorld

The game continues in the same PokeWorld although you get to explore a different area called Jouto. You begin again in Wakaba Town where you leave mom behind and head down to Dr. Utsugi's research centre to select one of your starting Pokemon.

Your Three Start-Up Pokemon

Waninko, a water-type Pokemon which evolves into Alligates.

Hinoarashi, a fire-type Pokemon which evolves into Magmarashi.

Chicolita, a plant-type Pokemon which like the other 2 will have male or female form and will evolve twice.

Gender

The gender of the Pokemon that you choose is important for breeding and even the Pokemon that you transfer over into Gold and Silver will be given a gender.

A Backpack

That's what's new too. To make it easier to access your items, your backpack will have several compartments for storing different types of items: regular items, pokeballs, hidden machines and miscellaneous items.

PokeGear

That's the wrist mounted do-it-all machine that will keep time as well as act as a cellular phone and radio.

You can upgrade your PokeGear by buying upgrade cards which adds functions like the ability to listen to radio stations (there's even a station will all music), view a world map, store trainer phone numbers so you can call then up for advice, or contact the professor for news on events that will only take place on certain days. Events that you will not want to miss.

New Pokedex

Your upgraded Pokedex will have data of new monsters in the game beginning from #152 (after Mew).

Gym Leaders

There are 8 this time and they're Hayato, Tsukushi, Akane, Matsuba, Shijima, Mikan, Yanagi and Ibuki.
