There are just as many "hints" to support R/S remake as there were to support G/S remakes. FRLG had remixes of Violet City & Azalea town, DPPT has a remix of Lilycove City, DPPT had the Secret Potion an item exclusive to Johto, Black & White have the Shoal Salt & Shoal Shell, an item exclusive to Hoenn. What I'm saying is for those who are debunking these hints or references I'd say don't be too hasty, there were people who did similar things for the Gold & Silver remakes and they happened so it's still just as likely.
Oh and I wanted to add, I'm not classifying this as a hint but it's funny how many of the Hoenn Pokemon sprites have been remade to look like how they looked in RSE. (Left Ruby & Sapphire - Right Black & White)
Shoal Salt and Shell. Now that's actually interesting.
Its not nearly as conclusive as the Secret Potion, which had a description saying its from Johto, along with actually being any use, but it is something.
But still. There are not
just as many hints.
Look, I was saying GS remakes were bound to happen.
Now I'm saying RS remakes wont happen.
At least not in the same way as in the past (either sequels or a Johto like addition to Hoenn with both regions accessible), and definitely not in this generation with
BW2 being the last beathing thing for the DS.
Why did I think GS remakes would happen?
Apart from the DIRECT hints like
-A gym leader on visit: Jasmine
-A key item, Secret Potion, with description its from Johto
-An important event mentioned on TV: Red Gyarados
-which also further points out the SAME time as GS
But most of all... and if it wasnt for this I wouldnt be sure:
-DPt had the coding
"From Johto(Gold)/From Johto(Silver)" for Pokemon encounter data.
That was essentially evidence, not just some hint.
This was the strongest argument. No one was saying we will get GS remakes because they put lakes into Sinnoh or something.
RS "hints" don't even compare to this
as all we got is
-Shoal Shell/Salt from daily item collector event with no possible use, or need for, as you get Shell Bell anyway.
-A water/magma themed cave, which we don't know what its there for yet.
They are slightly different, but they are basically the same tracks. R/S/E and B/W tracks are totally different.
So since they "brought it back", what do you suppose? That RS remakes will come out for the DS??
If there is a gen 6 first, then this has no meaning since they brought it back in gen 5 already........
How can you tell what were they thinking while making B/W?
Touche?
