Based off the new designs and old designs, which would you rather characters where in the HG/SS arc, assuming we get one?

I've actually gotten used to Silver's new clothes, so I wouldn't mind seeing him in it, but Gold...ick. I really hope they don't revamp my manga Gold. That would traumatise me. And what if they kill Crystal?! I don't wanna see Soul in there. At all.

 

[aurevesque]

oh, wait i think i found it...
REd looks the same so thats ok.
but what happened to Green? where's his trademark purple or green? what did he do to his hair? eewww! i do't like it.
SAme thing for MIsty! she looks like she's wearing claire's clothes!
Gold looks funny! his pants remind me of bloomers!
Kotune will take some time getting used to her umm...unusual clothing...
pryce: no wheelchair? how did he get out?
jasmine looks a lot older!
Sabrina! what did youdo to your hair!!!Why!!!now i dont' look like you!!!
i prefer silver's old hair, but he's ok.
that swimmer girl reminds me of sapphire for some reason, and the girl breeder.
overall, i'm not much on the sprites and heaven help me if they manga-ize them! i guess i'm not much on change...

 

[Tyknight3]

I... bring... news:

Spoiler:

Guys!! Giovanni is back!!!! He's BAAAAAAAAAAACCCKKK!!! *panting* He's apparently part of some event to get celebi (WTH!?) after kicking his a**, but dang everyone's in this game. We have all four champions for mew's sake! (If you count green that is). OMG Lance, Steven, Cynthia, Giovanni, i-it's too much.
Now speaking about Red's team I can't believe he got a lapras, what happened to espeon? He would have better type coverage with it but supposedly it hails at the top of mt. silver so I guess he needed a hail immune pokemon :/.

Based off the new designs and old designs, which would you rather characters where in the HG/SS arc, assuming we get one?
I'm going to answer this very quick by saying that I'm fairly happy with the new designs for almost all the characters. I really have no major problem with any of the sprites except Sabrina for cutting her hair, and Misty for overall outfit.

Oh I'm just asking but is it just me or does Chuck look almost identical to Akuma?

 

[aurevesque]

Yeah chuck does look like akuma...a little bit.

Spoiler:

OMGOMGOGMOGMGMMMOGM! i can't even type right!! Lance, Cynthia, Steven AND Giovani! my head is going ot explode!!! Hurry up Mangafox!!!!! whhooooohhh!!! i wonder how thye'll interact wiht each other. epsecially cynthia since she's the only girl! O___o

 

[alisaie]

but what happened to Green? where's his trademark purple or green? what did he do to his hair? eewww! i do't like it.

Seesh. My sister and I are probably the ones who like his new clothing, apparently. I think it's a nice change, and it's just the sprite. Doesn't mean that his hair isn't going to look exactly like that in the Manga. It'll probably look close to what it's looked like in the past. Nothing to worry about. :/

I do have to kind of agree with Splatty about Gold's clothing. I don't know if those can really fit a fifteen/sixteen-year old Gold. But if the artist can pull it off, then that's fine~ Anything is fine as long as the artist can pull it off, really? Including Sabrina and Green.

pryce: no wheelchair? how did he get out?

Pryce was only in a wheelchair in the Manga. Not in the games.

Honestly? I think some of you are being a tad picky, but that's just me. xD;

 

[aurevesque]

THanks! i know i'm picky! at certain things.
new topic: (if we need to) How many of youhave already imported or ordered HG or SS?

 

[Fuyu]

Hi Splatty!

Anyway... to the topic!

I kinda like the sprites. I don't mind Sabrina and the VS. poses are awesome. Pryce's outfit scared me for a sec there and then I liked it. Green's jacket isn't too bad really. Most of the sprites just surprised me that's all. I like 'em a lot.

Spoiler:

Woot! Giovanni's coming back! Yes! Maybe Celebi will heal Gio's body somehow. Maybe that'll be Silver's plot point: He might be journeying to convince Celebi to help his dad. My question: how is Red gonna catch a Lapras game-wise? There's gonna be some epic chapter about it or something. Too many champions. Honestly I'm waiting for Wallace and all the versions of the Elite Four now.

 

[Sunnybeam]

Spoiler:

Unless I'm reading Serebii's log wrong...the player character gets sent three years back in time for the Celebi event?!?

...

-senses VERY AWESOME in manga arc-

I'm confused about the timelines. Three years before the HGSS arc would be when, assuming that the DPPt arcs last a little under a year?

Around the end of the Johto arc, I think. I could be doing my math wrong though.

 

[Mika555]

Spoiler:

I actually think that some of you are just criticizing the clothes and designs too much and expecting the Pokemon Special writers not to dress the characters in those clothes is kind of futile because unlike the anime and another Pokemon manga there are restriction on what the characters can wear and cannot wear. I can understand express a dislike for a design but say that a character should not wear it especially in this type of manga. Also it seems kind of unlike that new characters based off the rival or the protagonists since this is suppose to an arc based on a remake game set in Johto and not new games set in Johto to be created unless the characters are alternate universe selves of Gold, Silver, and Crystal but with the names Hibiki, 'the rival with no official name', and Kotone. That goes for the gym leaders and elite four as well if there appear in the HGSS arc they will most likely be wearing there new clothes.

 

[Masara]

Based on the new designs and old designs, which would you rather see characters wear in the HG/SS arc, assuming we get one?
Nen loves all the new trainer designs. :O I can't wait to see the characters in the manga wearin' their new outfits.~

What I'm really curious about at the moment is when the HGSS arc is gonna take place, and how much older everyone will be. /random wondering

Spoiler:

Giovanni comes back?! o__o
If that's true, then I wonder what role he's gonna play in the manga... I mean, he can't still be the evil leader of TR, can he? That's a whole arc of character development down the drain TT^TT

 

[BlueDartX]

Spoiler:

With a time travel in-game event added, I can expect a back to the past arc with Crystal's twin sister, young Gold, Silver...
Anyways, I don't quite understand Sabrina's new look, whats with the green plasma?

 

[BerlitzKaulitz]

HG/SS ARC!! YESSS!!!!!! YEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

Based on the new designs and old designs, which would you rather see characters wear in the HG/SS arc, assuming we get one?
Silver's clothes are okay, I guess... they're not really that different. I sincerely hope they don't mess up his hair. Gold's too... well, I'd side with anyone on that one. (But I don't like his pants at all.) And Crystal.. they can giver her the new clothes BUT THEY HAD BETTER NOT REPLACE HER! And I hope they don't chop off Sabrina's hair. I'd be sad. D:

I know, I've seen it.. I WANT IT! They always offer cool stuff on there, once I think they had D/P pencils. And a pencil case with pictures of the characters on it or something! Does anyone know if you can order this stuff or if it's some sort of prize or what...?

Spoiler:

And Red and Giovanni are back too?! This arc is gonna be EPICC!!!!!!!! I'll be sure to start buying the magazines/ checking mangafox then... does anyone know when they expect it to come out?

 

[Mika555]

Spoiler:

I doubt they will replace Crystal who represent a game version just like the other Pokedex Holders and most of the element from that game version has already been incoporated into HGSS. Sabrina hair looks more it has gel on the edge and pinned to me instead of cut off.

I think there is going to be a Legendary Pokemon gathering in the HGSS arc since most of the Legendary Pokemon are present in HGSS. I also think that the HGSS arc will be longer than the FRLG arc because of all of the features in the HGSS game. Now about Giovanni I wonder what kind of role will he play in the HGSS arc. I thinking that he will disappear and close to the begin of the HGSS arc he will dress in that hat and trench coat though want is he actually up to will remain a mystery in the arc until later on.
Edit:
Now looking at her picture again I think that Sabrina could have cut her hair out though it does not matter to me if she does cut her hair off in the HGSS arc though.

 

[chanchimi]

Hey ya'll! It's been a long while since I've shown my.... avatar in this club.

I see that HG/SS is very popular for discussion in this club! I mean, there are so MANY spoilers! xD I'm wondering how all of this is going to be put into Pokemon Special.

Speaking of Pokemon Special, what was the last volume that came out? It's been so long, I don't even know. >.>
Anyways, I should be getting Soul Silver on Monday, but it doesn't really matter. I was really surprised that pretty much everything HG/SS has been revealed! xD I mean, it's crazy!!! Haha.

 

[morrison]

Yea the special arc of soulsilver is probably like the fire red arc too, just a sequence of an arc that plays in johto again , maybe invovling the new areas there as well.

 

[Clover Cat]

Spoiler:

Ignore what I said about the Originshipping. Idk WHAT I was trying to say back there. XD

Lol, hey, I haven't watched SM in...Years. I'm just glad I got the 'Tuxedo' part right. XP

OH. MY. MEW. Back in time? AND WITH THE OTHER CP TRAINER!? ...They had better put Crystal back in. THEY HAD BETTER. But that's not the point. GIOVANNI!!!! He's back!? Silver!! Get back in there and show us what happened to your dad!! Like, right now before I asplode with the epicness that is this game

So why does Red have his old FR/LG outfit, but Green gets a revamp? Maybe because he was in Mt. Silver that whole time?

So many epic trainers and champions, yup yup. <33 Steven's back, Wake's back, Lance is back, Giovanni's back...This arc will be just. Plain. EPIC.

Rematches!! =D Wait...Falkner is with Janine when he leaves his gym? Oh, Fatherlyshipping, I smell you in Pokespecial HG/SS. <333

AND. Because, in Japan, the games are officially out, THERE IS FANART OF EPIC PROPORTIONS. I only managed to find one so far that my com is letting me post, but here it is...

NYAAAAAA GOLD AND CRYS AND SILVER IN JOHTO MYAAAAAAA *Shot*

[FONT=ＭＳ Ｐゴシック][FONT=ＭＳ Ｐゴシック]I WANT THAT BAG. BADLY. X333 [/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=ＭＳ Ｐゴシック][FONT=ＭＳ Ｐゴシック]Gold's new outfit. <333 After seeing him in nothing but shorts these last few years, I lurve that he finally got capris. XD Silver looks lovely smexy in his new outfit, and if Crys looks like what I've seen of her in fanart, I don't mind so much. Pryce looks BETTER...But I'm still curious as to how Pokespe will deal with that. The only one I have any problem with is Green just because...I don't know, maybe I'm a weirdo who hates seeing him in jackets. Or whatever. X3 Sabrina will be fine, if they can work around her hair (if she reappears to begin with), and if the other GL's reappear, they're okay too.

[RubyJB88]

Spoiler:

I'm soooo happy they included the bit about Gio and Silver! They have to say that, so I'm glad it's in there. :DD And did I mention how adorable Gio looks with that hat on in his overworld sprite? XDD

We have all four champions for mew's sake! (If you count green that is). OMG Lance, Steven, Cynthia, Giovanni, i-it's too much.

lol I didn't realize that until now. XD Though technically we won't be able to see Cynthia unless we have movieArceus.

Wow you guys don't like Misty's sprite? lol I must be one of the few then...o_O

i wonder how thye'll interact wiht each other. epsecially cynthia since she's the only girl! O___o

Yeah, that'd be great to see. Especially with Lance, he's a special one. :D

Honestly I'm waiting for Wallace and all the versions of the Elite Four now.

Wallace and Steven!! Yes please!! XDD

Unless I'm reading Serebii's log wrong...the player character gets sent three years back in time for the Celebi event?!?

That's the third time they bring in Celebi like this, almost similar to Ruby using it.

If that's true, then I wonder what role he's gonna play in the manga... I mean, he can't still be the evil leader of TR, can he? That's a whole arc of character development down the drain

Mm I don't think so. It did look like Gio's time was up with TR. If there is a resurgence, they'd call for him though.

With a time travel in-game event added, I can expect a back to the past arc with Crystal's twin sister, young Gold, Silver...

I doubt the new girl is even related to Crystal. We can't know for sure right now.

I think there is going to be a Legendary Pokemon gathering in the HGSS arc since most of the Legendary Pokemon are present in HGSS. I also think that the HGSS arc will be longer than the FRLG arc because of all of the features in the HGSS game. Now about Giovanni I wonder what kind of role will he play in the HGSS arc. I thinking that he will disappear and close to the begin of the HGSS arc he will dress in that hat and trench coat though want is he actually up to will remain a mystery in the arc until later on.

I also believe that this is much bigger than the previous Johto arc, since they are including Hoenn and Sinnoh elements in Johto. There is a merging of culture, a union of regions, bigger than what we've seen more. It'll be monumental, no doubt about that. Everything is coming together, connected.

Wait...Falkner is with Janine when he leaves his gym? Oh, Fatherlyshipping, I smell you in Pokespecial HG/SS. <333

Aaah, I can't believe I forgot to mention that! Yeah, when you look for him in the Celadon Dept. store, he's talking to Janine! That's adorable! And could it cement that ship as canon? Cool!

Seesh. My sister and I are probably the ones who like his new clothing, apparently. I think it's a nice change, and it's just the sprite. Doesn't

mean that his hair isn't going to look exactly like that in the Manga. It'll probably look close to what it's looked like in the past. Nothing to worry about. :/

You two aren't the only ones. I don't mind it at all.

Honestly? I think some of you are being a tad picky, but that's just me. xD;

*agrees* I agree with Mika as well, it's not a big deal. So what it's not that close to the originals. At least the basics stay the same, right?

I sincerely hope they don't mess up his hair. Gold's too... well, I'd side with anyone on that one. (But I don't like his pants at all.) And Crystal.. they can giver her the new clothes BUT THEY HAD BETTER NOT REPLACE HER! And I hope they don't chop off Sabrina's hair. I'd be sad. D:

*crosses arms* Judging by what we see in the games, that's what will happen in the manga. And the "new girl better be Crystal" is an old argument at this point so please drop it. It is confirmed this girl is not Crystal, and she is a new character a.k.a. "Kotone".

I'm confused about the timelines. Three years before the HGSS arc would be when, assuming that the DPPt arcs last a little under a year?

Spoiler:

I'd say in the manga they get sent further back than 3 years, because the game is suppossed to take place after the RBGY games, so I=it would only make sense to me that they would be sent back further.

 

[Sunnybeam]

Spoiler:

Ahahaha, FATHERLYSHIPPING. I laughed so hard when I saw that screenie on the GL Rematch page...my little brother didn't get it, even after I explained it to him. But yeah. Looks like we're getting another canonship, guys~!

I'd say in the manga they get sent further back than 3 years, because the game is suppossed to take place after the RBGY games, so I=it would only make sense to me that they would be sent back further.

Maybe...they get sent back to witness the GSC arc from outside? Or possibly stop that timeline from being altered/work to alter it...?

That could work. Then we'd inevitably end up with an explanation for how Gold survived the void of time....ah...ohshittheoryplz.

HGSS!Gold, during his stint in the past, saves himself to reaffirm the timeline?
