Pokémon HeartGold Version and SoulSilver Version[b] are enhanced remakes of the 1999 video games Pokémon Gold and Silver, including the features in Pokémon Crystal. The games are part of the fourth generation of the Pokémon series of role-playing video games, and were developed by Game Freak, published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo for the Nintendo DS. The games were released in Japan on September 12, 2009, and were later released in other countries during March 2010.

HeartGold and SoulSilver take place in the Johto region of the franchise's fictional universe, which features special creatures called Pokémon. The basic goal of the game is to become the best Pokémon trainer in the Johto and Kanto regions, which is done by raising and cataloging Pokémon and defeating other trainers.
Game director Shigeki Morimoto aimed to respect the feelings of those who played the previous games, while also ensuring that it felt like a new game to those that were introduced to the series in more recent years. The games have received positive reviews from critics, and as of March 2014, the games' combined sales have reached 12.72 million, making the two games combined the eighth best-selling DS game of all time.[4]

Gameplay[edit]
Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver are role-playing video games with adventure elements. The basic mechanics of the games are largely the same as their predecessors'. As with all Pokémon games for hand-held consoles, gameplay is viewed from a third-person overhead perspective, and consists of three basic screens: a field map, in which the player navigates the main character; a battle screen; and the menu, in which the player configures his party, items, or gameplay settings. The player begins the game with one Pokémon and can capture more using Poké Balls. The player can also use the Pokémon to battle or deceive others, often forming alliances or trends via the Team Rocket networks.[5]
When the player encounters a wild Pokémon or is challenged by a trainer to a battle, the screen switches to a turn-based battle screen where the Pokémon fight. During battle, the player may fight, use an item, switch the active Pokémon, or flee (the last is not an option in battles against trainers). Pokémon have hit points (HP), which is displayed during combat; when a Pokémon's HP is reduced to zero, it faints and cannot battle unless taken to a Pokémon Center or healed or revived with a Pokémon skill or item. If the player's Pokémon defeats the opposing Pokémon (causes it to faint), it receives experience points. After accumulating enough experience points, it will level up; most Pokémon evolve into a new species of Pokémon when they reach a certain level, or when certain conditions are met (commonly, how much a Pokémon statistically 'likes' its trainer).[5]
New features[edit]
HeartGold and SoulSilver allow the first Pokémon in the player's party to follow them, echoing a mechanic in Pokémon Yellow in which Pikachu follows the player. Apart from Yellow, this mechanic was also used in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum in a limited fashion: when the player is in Amity Park with a cute Pokémon. The player may talk to the Pokémon to see or check on how that Pokémon is feeling, and occasionally it may pick up items.[6] A new minigame called the Pokéathlon (called Pokéthlon in Japan) uses the Nintendo DS touchscreen and allows Pokémon to compete in events such as hurdling.[7] The Japanese versions retain slot machines found in previous games, while the international releases of the titles replace the slot machines with a new game called 'Voltorb Flip', described as a cross between Minesweeper and Picross.[8] Another new item, the GB Sounds, changes the background music to the original 8-bit music from Pokémon Gold and Silver.[9]
Connectivity to other devices[edit]
HeartGold and SoulSilver can access the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection (discontinued) to trade, battle, and interact with other players of the games, as well as players of Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.[7] After completing a special Wi-Fi mission download on Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs, the player can send a Deoxys to HeartGold and SoulSilver.[10]
Plot and setting[edit]
Similar to Pokémon Gold and Silver, HeartGold and SoulSilver take place in the Johto and Kanto regions of the franchise's fictional universe. The universe centers on the existence of creatures, called Pokémon, with special abilities. The silent protagonist is a young Pokémon trainer who lives in a small town referred to as New Bark Town. At the beginning of the games, the player chooses either a Chikorita, Cyndaquil, or Totodile as their starter Pokémon from Professor Elm. After performing a delivery for the professor and obtaining a Pokédex, he decides to let the player keep the Pokémon and start them on a journey.
The goal of the game is to become the best trainer in Johto and Kanto (the main region of the first games), which is done by raising Pokémon, completing a catalogue of Pokémon called a Pokédex, defeating the eight Gym Leaders in Johto for Gym Badges, challenging the best trainers in the region known as the Elite Four and the Champion, and then defeating the eight Gym Leaders in the Kanto region. Finally, the player may face off against Red atop Mt. Silver, who serves as the game's final boss.
Throughout the game, the player will battle against members of Team Rocket, a criminal organization originally from Kanto. They were originally defeated by the protagonist of FireRed and LeafGreen, and have attempted to come back as an organization, while awaiting the return of their leader, Giovanni. To attempt to contact him, they take over the radio tower and broadcast a message calling out to him.

While being the remakes of Gold and Silver, the games tie in plot elements of Crystal as well, such as the added emphasis on Suicune over the other legendary beasts, as well as the post-ending Battle Frontier. (In Crystal, only the Battle Tower was available.) Additionally, Johto and Kanto were given Generation IV features such as Pal Park.
During certain points in the game, the player's rival will battle the protagonist in a test of skills. Additionally, the player will encounter Kimono Girls, who ask the player to do small favors, such as defeating a Team Rocket grunt, throughout the Johto region. After battling all of them in a row, they proceed to the area where you would encounter the game's legendary Pokémon mascot (Ho-Oh in HeartGold, and Lugia in SoulSilver), and perform a dance to summon them. As per the originals, the other Pokémon can be obtained later on.

—Shigeki Morimoto on one of the differences between the remakes and the originals[11]
HeartGold and SoulSilver were released in 2009, ten years after Gold and Silver's release for the Game Boy Color. Shigeki Morimoto, the games' director, commented on the development of the remakes: 'The first thing that I knew I needed to bear in mind was to respect the feelings of those people who'd played Gold and Silver ten years before. I think that players have very strong memories of the game, so they'd think things like 'Ah, this trainer is still strong' and 'If I do this here, this is going to happen'. I knew I needed to respect these feelings.'[11] However, Morimoto also needed to make sure that the games would feel as new games to players who began playing Pokémon in recent years on the Game Boy Advance or the Nintendo DS.[11] An in-game author surrogate of Game Freak's President in Celadon City states that the team strove to make a game that would appeal to players with fond memories without 'redoing the same thing'. He also states that making the game was a 'rewarding challenge'.[12]HeartGold and SoulSilver introduced many new features that were absent in the original Gold and Silver. Several of these features came from the previously released Nintendo DS Pokémon games, such as Diamond (2006), Pearl (2006), and Platinum (2008).[11]
Marketing and release[edit]
An initial rumor started in early May 2009 that Nintendo planned to remake Pokémon Gold and Silver after the Japanese television show Pokémon Sunday ended by announcing a 'world-exclusive first announcement' that would be made on its next show. Kris Pigna of 1UP.com speculated that this alluded to a possible remake of Gold and Silver for the Nintendo DS, due to gold and silver disco balls hanging in the background. Pigna further reasoned that this would be consistent with the previously released titles Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen which were enhanced remakes of the original Pokémon Red and Blue.[13] Several days later, Nintendo officially confirmed that Gold and Silver were being remade as HeartGold and SoulSilver and released their official logos. It also announced that the games would contain numerous updates, although declined to reveal any specifics.[14] The games were released for the Nintendo DS on September 12, 2009 in Japan to coincide with the tenth anniversary of the original Gold and Silver release.[15]Junichi Masuda stated on his blog that 'we, Game Freak have spent long and firm time developing above two titles [sic]', and that 'Pokémon Gold & Silver' will be back with far more excitement.'[16]
At the 2009 Pokémon World Championships, Nintendo stated that HeartGold and SoulSilver would be released in North America between the months of January and March, Europe sometime around May and June, and Australia in April. 'Announcing these much-anticipated game launches at The Pokémon World Championships allows us to give the news directly to the legions of fans who represent the true heart and soul of Pokémon,' a spokesperson said.[17] Nintendo updated the official Pokémon English website with information about the new titles, telling readers that the games would feature revamped audiovisual effects, interaction with the DS touch screen, and more 'surprises'.[18] From February 27 to March 13, 2010, video game retailer GameStop hosted a promotion in which players of Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum could use the games' 'Mystery Gift' feature to download a free Jirachi Pokémon to their game.[19] A 'Pikachu-colored Pichu' could be downloaded using Wi-Fi that, when taken to the Ilex Forest in-game, unlocked a 'Spiky-eared Pichu'.[20]

In response to the news confirming the development of HeartGold and SoulSilver, fans posted their reactions and commentary on the Internet. In particular, IGN editor Jack DeVries reasoned that the primary reason for the updated games was to be compatible with Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, allowing players to collect old Pokémon species that were previously unobtainable in the new games. He also expressed skepticism that the new titles could match the quality of the originals; stating, 'For me, Gold/Silver were amazing because they introduced so many new features that have since become standards for the series. It was the first, and only, time the Pokémon games have made such a significant expansion. These days we're lucky if we get a new feature that invisibly changes the strategic elements of the game.' He reminisced over the qualities that made Gold and Silver truly unique, including the full color support, internal clock, Pokémon breeding, and PokéGear.[36] Several months later, after DeVries had played through some of the game, he wrote, 'so far I like what I see, even if it all feels very familiar and formulaic at this point.'[7]
The games' reception has been highly positive, having an aggregate score of 87 on Metacritic. The titles are among the Top 20 rated DS games in the site's database.[37] Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu awarded the games a composite score of 37 out of 40 based on four individual reviews, of which the ratings were 9, 10, 9, and 9. The reviewers praised the games for retaining much of the quality that drew them to the original Gold and Silver. The only drawback mentioned was that the games brought 'no major surprises'.[28]Nintendo Power gave the games one of the highest scores, remarking on its replay value though criticizing shortly about no improvement in graphic animation for Pokémon sprites.[38]Official Nintendo Magazine stated that they were the best Pokémon games yet.[34]Game Informer's Annette Gonzalez stated 'Even though the classic Pokémon formula still works as evidenced by HeartGold. I can’t help but hope for a new Pokémon title that breaks some new ground.'[29]
IGN's Craig Harris said that the titles were 'like a gap filler to make the wait for a new Pokémon game just a little more bearable'.[33] Jim Sterling of Destructoid stated, 'While it is, at its core, the same game that you've played many years ago, it still manages to feel new and the updated features bolster the original experience in a manner that never intrudes and only enhances'.[39]1UP.com's Justin Haywald stated that 'HeartGold/SoulSilver is easily the best Pokémon game yet'.[26] VideoGamer.com reviewer Jamin Smith said, 'With HeartGold and SoulSilver the Pokémon series has reached a point where it can't get any better.'[35]Eurogamer's Keza MacDonald gave the games a 9/10, stating 'They combine everything that was best about the older Pokémon games', citing the Pokémon designs and improved graphics and battle system.[27]GamePro's McKinley Noble stated that 'it's clear that this is a perfect experience for both old-school trainers and the newest generation of Pokémon fans.'[30]GameZone's Cliff Bakehorn III said, 'There is not a doubt in my mind: Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver are the pinnacle of the entire series.'[32] Nathan Meunier of GameSpot gave the games one of the lower scores, criticizing them for a lack of innovation.[31]GamesRadar attributed the game's success to being a remake of classic games.
Sales[edit]
In Japan, the games sold over 1.48 million units within the first two days of release, topping the Japanese sales chart that week.[40] Within two weeks, the games had sold a combined total of over 2.00 million units.[41] By December 18, 2009, the games' Japanese sales totals had surpassed 3.22 million.[42] In Australia, over 50,000 units sold in one week.[43] In the United States, the games managed collective sales of 1.73 million in their first month, with the SoulSilver version selling 1.01 million and HeartGold selling 0.76 million units. The combined sales of the two games made them the highest-selling games of March 2010.[44] > By May 6, 2010, the games had sold 8.40 million units worldwide,[45] and the games reached 10 million sales worldwide by the end of July 2010.[46] As of September 2017, the games' combined sales have reached 12.72 million.[47]

We are working toward something that brings back memories, yet is also completely new! I've been in this business for 20 years now, but creating a game is always a rewarding challenge!

Game Description & Reviews:
Brendoge rates this game: 4/5Before you get your hands on Pokemon Black & White, revisit the retro game Silver with Pokemon Soul Silver. This remade version has a lot more updated features to it, so your not playing the same game with just better graphics. Some new features include having your 1st party pokemon that walks with you everywhere.
Soul Silver is a challenging game but you'll easily get the hang of it in no time. I would suggest getting this game because it has a big change from it's older self, Pokemon Pearl and Diamond. Enjoy taking your pokemon everywhere, try to catch them all Poke'Mon! I recommend it to anyone!
This pokemon game and heartgold is the best pokemon game in my opinion. The reason being is that there is so many pokemon and many return back from the past games such as islands. This game is a must have for pokemon lovers. You can trade online and play games multiplayer. I would recommend this one if you love pokemon. 9/10
A Great Remake rates this game: 5/5Pokemon SoulSilver is a remake unlike any other that I have played. This gem of a game sticks to the original formula of Pokemon while still updating on all of the outdated features. It is an amazing game jam-packed with all of the action that you could want. Although I did grind a bit, it never got to the point where it felt cumbersome.
Pokemon SoulSilver is an rpg through-and-through.
This has never, ever left my game cartridge from the moment I got it. The reason for this? Pokemon is a great way to just spend a few hours and feel like you've acomplished something.
I can highly recommend this game to anyone and to people of all ages. Younger players can still kick ass in this game, even if they don't understand the deeper mechanics. Older players can easily pick it up and finely tune their pokemon to become the best that they can be to destroy others online.
This game is one of the best in NDS system! The 2d & 3d graphics are well blended. The post game is great because you can visit Kanto region after beat elite 4.
