If that's true, then why couldn't Gamefreak have put it where the old one was?

I have a feeling it's something new. Perhaps a Global Terminal or where to go for Pokemon Contests?

Because they would want it to look mysterious overshadowing the small version? I dunno too small a map to see properly. I am still waiting for the wallpaper version Gamefreak give it!

Now...this is a somewhat interesting speculation of sorts on the new Johto map:

The clouds in Platinum happened to had covered up the Battle Frontier - so now people are asking about the clouds there. TBH, I'm always a bit...'eh' on drawing on such things, but then there is the fact that in Crystal, there was a Battle Tower right where that cloud had been... hmm. Take it as you will, I suppose - but we do know of Goldenrod's new Tower and Cianwood's new area at least - not behinding behind clouds, those two.

You make an interesting find here actually, and I see what you mean. It is definitely peculiar on how they would do that to that area in Johto specifically. However, seeing as it was done to the Platinum map as well, then we may having something coming at us. I'd expect if it was a new Battle Tower or even Battle Frontier, then we might not hear about it until closer the the release of the games. Though, it interests me now on what may be held there. Also, that large Gold Colored sky, it really catches my eye. Anyway, there may possibly be something there. If you look at the image some more, not much land areas are covered in clours, except for that speicif spot where we do get to enter, so I'd keep an eye out for news there in the future.

You are right, both Lugia and Ho-Oh were obtainable in all three games together. Seeing as how nicely done the images are done with Lugia and Ho-Oh in their respective places, it may just note how each location is needed. Not to mention, their body being there means the game makers haven't been forgotten and may possible come back together in both versions. Not to mention, if they want to keep anything exclusive, that is basically what Kyogre and Groudon are doing.

Overall, images are so much in better quality. The new features shown for the remakes are a plus. The map is very nice and with the way it expands to the East, Kanto may after all make another return. I did notice one Rocket member's hair have a green color, now I don't know if that could have been an error in the image or if it may be for something new, but we'll find out. The new female's OW sprite is nicely detailed and I like it alot. However, most people got what I needed covered, so I'll stop here and enjoy the new images and old at eye.

Honesty, I doubt they would make seperate building for an office and the Radio Tower. I do believe however that we may be seeing a new location in Goldenrod City. What it may be, I'm not to sure on. Though, I suspect either a Contest Hall as some have said or the Global Trace Station to be placed there as it would fit in quite well with a developed city such as this.

EDIT: I forget to mention, it seems as though they've kept the feeling feature from Pokémon Yellow. If you look at the image with Teddiursa, you will see a small smiling face above his OW sprite. I think that is a really nice thing to bring back as it lets us know how your Pokémon is doing. I'd think they would smile when fully healthy in HP, have no smile when in terms of organe/yellow HP, and then have a frowning face when low in HP. That was just a basic reference to how I think they would make it work now, but still very nice to have as it gives your Pokémon some sence of reality in nature.

Mitchman June 15th, 2009 5:46 AM

Ah both the birds are indeed in both games.

gummybarz June 15th, 2009 5:47 AM

Ok then i'll translate


On the first page with lugia and hoho it says:

The wild Pokemon appear, depending on the software in the same place, at the climax to his story, The Heart's HOUOU Gold, Silver, Seoul, the RUGIA, two dogs appeared legendary Pokemon! !

Another difference I have to find the legendary Pokemon Hall of Fame!



On the second page with gold and new girl it says:

JOUTO characters to travel to the region as Kimi's alter ego player. You can choose a boy and a girl!
選BANAKATTA more characters, the story appeared in supporting roles to the hero.



On second page with team rocket it says:


The rocket is a crime organization to use a different Pokemon!
The three that were thought to have dissolved years ago, work began again at the local JOUTO. Or are they in thee what! ?



On the third page with the starters it says:
The first partner

Partners will receive the first at the Institute of WAKABATAUN Pokemon adventure begins.
CHIKORITA, HINOARASHI, WANINOKO you can choose from three dogs!



On the thrid page with lugia and hoho it says:

Usually in this play could not get the legendary Pokemon RUGIA HOUOU the Silver and Gold Heart's in Seoul, FINALLY!
Moreover, after the Hall of Fame, they can also meet the other legendary Pokemon!
Kimi I can catch and RUGIA HOUOU! ?



On the third page with groundon, rayquaza and kyourge it says:

Hall of Fame after the meeting

After Hall of Fame will also be the coming of the legendary Pokemon!
Heart of Gold and Silver, Seoul, appear different in each of the legendary Pokemon, catch it, you'll also appear on the legendary Pokemon to bring in other software! !

"Picture book" and "Pokemon" and "bag" items, such as easy to touch the screen! In addition, the box, dramatically increase the usability of the method adopted by the touch screen. The movement of Pokemon, the only touch operation, you can almost look like! !



On the 4th page with the poke gear it says:

Stylish red for boys, for girls are feeling pretty pink NOZU.



Hope this helps~



Mitchman June 15th, 2009 5:56 AM

Hmm in Ecruteak the lining is purple but in Mahogony light blue. Change for each type?

gummybarz June 15th, 2009 6:07 AM

I would also like to point out the touch screen, see it says "picture book". Would that mean you could some how take pictures with the DSI in the game?

Artemis June 15th, 2009 6:24 AM

Okay, it was being speculated whether or not the blue poles shown next to the lab were the same air vents for the Underground like Sinnoh, or whether or not they might have been lamp posts. However, after seeing these images, I noticed a tall, gray, and thin pole more towards the back of the image [bordered in red]. I would believe this is a light post, meaning the blue vents [bordered in black] may indeed be air vents to the underground. So, with this being said I would think the underground feature from DPPt, might just be brought back to the remakes. Now, this is just basic speculation, but the way I see it, we just may have back the underground in Johto.

Sorry for the little distortion in the picture, it happens when you use a program like Paint. At least it is visible though ^_^.

Samme! June 15th, 2009 6:27 AM

WOW
-Ecruteak looks ABSOLUTELY AMMAAAZZZIIIINNNGGG! I love all of the cooler buildings :)

-Cherrygrove, Ruins of Alph, Slowpoke Well, Elm's Lab == SICK NASTY DUDE! they look so beutiful

-The Lugia and Ho-oh cut scenes are SOOOOO COOOOOOOOLLLLLL

-Lovin' the new Johto map!!!!!!
****What is that huge orange and yellow BLOB above ecruteak???
****And just an observation, the new area by Cianwood is separated into 6 distinct areas.....? strange

I never thought of it that way before. I do indeed hope they bring back the magnet train though..

Considering that we've seen the station, in addition to the tracks going through Johto as well as the mountains that border it and Kanto, I don't think you need to be worried about that.

About the tall white pole, that is a wind turbine type thing seen in the first video on pokemon sunday.

Did anyone else notice that that the Ecruteak Gym is lined with purple as it has Ghost Types and over in Mahogany Town the Gym is lined with icey blue as it has Ice Types?

Yeah purple for the ghost type in Ecruteak Light blue for ice in Mahogony! Ah this feels like a great game. Summer will pass by so slow dammit..

Samme! June 15th, 2009 6:54 AM

Yeah, it almost seems that Game Freak is trying to tie in more anime based ideas
For example, in the anime the gyms are all different. The PokeCenters and Pokemarts also look different like they do in the anime.... hmmm just an idea

gummybarz June 15th, 2009 6:56 AM

Oh, sorry about not adding the map page to.

On the map page it says:
Kimi WAKABATAUN live in a small town in rural JOUTO, the Pokemon from Pokemon expert Dr. deutzia a neighbor to get dogs off on an adventure. Various people, I have been waiting for Kimi and the Electric Horseman of Pokemon!

3 Cantho was active in the region years ago, with the organization doing evil Pokemon "The Rocket" was back in action again. They are企N what? Kimi had to get involved in an incident during the trip, I could dismiss the team rocket! ?

Adventure destination and we will await the POKEMONTORENA POKEMONJIMU challenge the powerful. To challenge the gym leaders POKEMONRIGU recognized sign of victory "badge" Collect all! Now, POKEMONTORENA to the ultimate adventure of a regional departure JOUTO!

Actually it seems the marts will be different only. And the gyms in the Anime are radically different. This is just a color change to point out the type.

qwerty15 June 15th, 2009 6:59 AM

This is going to be the best Pokemon game yet. I personally hated Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.

The Pokémon Centers and Friendly Shops seem to have a new standard design, but it's not different across towns. (Look for the picture of Cherrygrove if you need a clue at that.)

And the gyms look like they'll be having a different palette depending on the gym trainer, rather than being completely different buildings.

Torii. ;0;

The mart though will. The azalea mart has a flag instead of a sign(an old video showed a flag for it so yeah) and it was blue so possibly the color changes for each town and a flag is for town and sign for city?

When did they show azalea town and its mart? All they showed was the slowpoke well out side of it

Yes but if you noticed in the left hand corner all the way on top a blue flag with a Pokeball on it was there. That is the same place where the mart is.

That was the word 図鑑, I am almost 100% positive. The Pokedex is a picture book (Encyclopedia) of Pokemon :P It just means Pokedex

Yes, it is the same feature from Amity Square. It's is very beneficial as it'll allow people to get berries and accessories seeing as we've got a little extra hint that contests may be back.

Also, I noticed the color in the gyms. Very nice touch and gives each Gym location something different other than the same appearance. The outlined color for each type suits and yes, you can say that it is influenced from the anime. Now, it isn't a large influence, but the anime portrays each gym to look different. I think they took that idea and made it into the remake. Overall, a nice feature, and I'd only wonder how nice the inside of each gym may be.

Samme! June 15th, 2009 7:20 AM

Is that tower in the upper left of the Ecruteak artwork the Sprout Tower in Violet City?

d[-_-]b June 15th, 2009 7:21 AM
