4th Gen So, HeartGold, SoulSilver… whatcha getting?

[Zelda]

I am getting HeartGold because my brother is getting SoulSilver and the name HeartGold suits the female girl to play as in the game.

 

[HSX]

Gold was my first Pokemon game nd overall video game. That is what I'll defiantly be getting.

I also might get SoulSilver. :U

 

[Dragonsprout]

Didn't anyone play Crystal first? Guess, I'm the only one. :/ Anyway, i don't think i'm going to buy any of these games. But i'm sure, it's going to be awesum.:D

I played Crystal first, too. I'll be getting HeartGold, because Ho-oh's awesome and there are some good version exclusives.

 

[streetends08]

i'll prolly get both eventually but i'll get soul silver first...silver was the gbc game i got, the reason was because i prefered lugia over ho-oh and still do lol. eventually i'll get heart gold and transfer all of them to platinum so i can have every single pokemon on one game chip lol i'll start with chikorita like i did when the original game came out.

 

[lilninjapig]

I think I'll get SoulSilver because the first Pokemon game I ever owned was Pokemon Silver. Knowing me, I'll probably end up with both eventually.

No question about it, I'm definitely getting a copy of SoulSilver since the Silver gen was what got me into Pokemon in the first place. Also picking it up for Lugia. =D

 

[Magician Of Ice]

I want to buy Silver because Lugia is my favorite Legendary, but I don't own a Ho-oh and would like to own a game where I have the ability to catch one. I have Gale of Darkness so I have the ability to get more Lugias, but I suck at Colosseum (because I'm used to Gale of Darkness gameplay ;-; ) so I'm nowhere near catching my Ho-oh in that one. So, I'm probably going to go with Gold.

 

[blueblur155]

defenitely getting soulsilver. my internal battery on my original silver died, so this is the only real way(in my mind) to replace it. plus lugia just rocks

 

[bewbs]

My silver dosen't work anymore, so I'll get Soulsilver first. Heartgold later perhaps.

 

[Miss Soupy]

Heart Gold, because it's the one I originally had. Iunno. It just has a special place in my heart.

Maybe I will get HeartGold first before Soul Silver since my first game is gold..hihi^^

 

[Meganium Ex]

I'm really surprised with the poll results so far, I expected HeartGold to be soaring high above SoulSilver, not the other way around.

Anyway, I'll be importing SoulSilver from Japan since I can't wait to relive Johto for the first time in years again, and then I'll purchase the American HeartGold which will be my main version. So I'll be buying both. :D

 

[SooHee]

When gold and silver first came out, I wanted to buy silver just because i liked the color better. But, my older sister ended up buying it and refused to let me have the same kind so I had to get gold. Now, since her interest in Pokemon is gone, I plan to get SoulSilver

 

[Astinus]

I want to buy Silver because Lugia is my favorite Legendary, but I don't own a Ho-oh and would like to own a game where I have the ability to catch one. I have Gale of Darkness so I have the ability to get more Lugias, but I suck at Colosseum (because I'm used to Gale of Darkness gameplay ;-; ) so I'm nowhere near catching my Ho-oh in that one. So, I'm probably going to go with Gold.

You can (maybe? most likely) get both legendary birdies in HG/SS. It was possible in G/S that no matter which version you chose, you could get both Ho-Oh and Lugia in the games. The one that was opposite of the game color would be found in it's location at a higher level than the birdie that matched the game color.

So, if you chose SoulSilver, you can catch Lugia in the Whirl Islands at level 40, and Ho-Oh in the Tin Tower at level 70. This is how it was done in the original Silver, and right now, there looks to be no reason for this to change.

 

[Lt. Silver]

My first pokemon game was gold, and I luved it, so I'm getting Heart Gold, plus gold has Flaaffy, my favorite pokemon. But, if Soul Silver has better sprites than gold, again, I'll consider getting them both :)

Mareep-Flaffy-Ampharos was in both Silver and Gold in the originals.

 

[Jollyrancher]

OoOo. ... .I was planning to get Heart Gold, but Soul Silver sounds more appealing :P

 

[Hypergaming]

Gold is the way to go. Always was, always will be for me.

(unless they remake crystal which i doubt)

 

[Leon K. Fox]

Soul Silver (unless Heart Gold is confirmed to have more water based exclusives) because I do not like the name "Heart" Gold at all. (wouldn't "Shiny Gold" have been more fitting?)

 

[BobXX]

i think SoulSilver will be mah choice

 

[Suzuna]

Since I played Gold first, I'll get SS instead of HG, though I'll probably end up with both anyway...
