Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire, & Emerald Remake Speculation Thread
*Stickied* :D
In Pokemon Diamond, there were many things that hinted towards a G/S remake (which was made) some of these were 1. The Traveling Man who gives you the egg says that Pokemon eggs hatch when it is with energetic Pokemon, and mentions Professor Elm. A reference to Professor Elm of Johto, and how Pokemon eggs were introduced there. 2. The Pal Park Pokeballs are gold and silver with a crystal in the middle. 3. Next to the resort hotel, if you go into some guy's house, he mentions the Tin Tower, home of Ho-Oh. He also mentions Whirl Islands, home of Lugia. Finally, he mentions the dancing Clefairy, which you can see if you go to Mt. Moon on Friday. 4. Drifloon comes only on Friday, just as the dancing Clefairy. Lapras also only comes on Friday, too. 5. Kurt's unique Pokeballs are obtainable in the game, but only by hacking. 6. By hacking, you can get your Pokemon to be from Johto, meaning the game is trade-able with a Johto game... 7. Jasmine visits you, gives you Waterfall, and mentions that you should visit Johto sometime. 8. The SecretPotion says in its description that it's from Cianwood City. 9. At the beginning of the game, it mentions the red Gyarados from G/S/C. 10. Firered and Leafgreen were remakes of games needing them, so that leaves 2 more games to need them! 11. Crasher Wake and Chuck hold their arms in the same way. 12. After Bebe gives you an Eevee, she mentions Bill having a bunch of them. 13. There is a GS ball in the middle of every Pokemon Center. 14. Sweet Honey is similar to headbutting a tree in G/S/C. 15. Both games have a lighthouse that you need to do something in to make a gym leader appear. 16. The time thing all started in G/S/C. 17. The night guards are here again, who only fight you at night. 18. In the place where you get Shaymin, there is a Dragon Tamer who says,"It's been years since I've left the Dragon's Den" after you battle him. I'm NOT saying this is correct but from what i've seen, i've picked up a few things which MAY hint towards Pokemon R/S remakes in Pokemon Heart Gold & Soul Silver; Pokemon HG/SS 1. Steven Stone appears in the game (Getting Hoenn starters) 2. Steven Stone also appears in an event (Latios & Latias) 3. Steven Stone says "Our fun will have to wait for the right time" 3. Bill mentions Lanette and the Hoenn region 4. The Hoenn region is also mentiond by various people throughout the game 5. Kyogre & Groudon & Rayquaza are obtainable (Blue, Red & Jade Orb) 6. Hoenn Sound (Pokemon Radio Show to catch Pokémon originated in Hoenn) 7. If you talk to one of the people in the Celadon Mansion, they will say "We are remaking an old game, but this is quite a challenge. Old fans would not want usw to mess with their good memories..." 8. The Root and Claw Fossils are on display in the Pewter City Museum of Science. 9. he Pokemon Centers throughout Johto and Kanto have a Emerald Pokeball with a black background around it on the floor below the nurse's desk. these hints are similar to the ones in Pokemon Diamond & Pearl which we're hints for G/S remakes and Pokemon Heart Gold & Soul Silver we're made, there might be some in Pokemon Black & White too. However, that's just my theory, what do you think? Also, if you've spotted any more please post them in the comments and I will add to the list, thanks! Pokemon B&W (Spoiler Alert) Spoiler:
If you come across any more speculations towards remakes for R/S/E in Pokémon Black & White, please let me know VIA PM/VM, thanks. Update A Music similarity I found: Pokemon Platinum - Resort Area House http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3oiD3DhR5k Pokemon R/S/E - LilyCove City http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MStZNaTQLs8 http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Remake - There are some listed hints towards R/S remakes. |
It wouldn't surprise me. People would buy it and, when it comes to nintendo, that's all that matters

There are a large number of reasons I would say no, but I think that Nintendo will likely make it for the simple reason that it will sell.
The only real reason FRLG and HGSS were necessary is that there was no compatibility between the originals and the third or fourth generation. Ruby and Sapphire are still compatible, and as such a remake would be obsolete. Also, you can already obtain Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza, not to mention Latias and Latios, in HGSS. In short, there's no reason to make a remake, but why wouldn't they? |
The title of this got me interested, I think after pkmn black and white they'll remake green and red, then ruby and saphire. just mo.
|
It won't be very practical or necessary unless the fifth gen isn't compatible with the GBA games (i.e. exclusive to the DSi or DSiXL) and it has a huge techological leap from the GenIII games.
Regardless, I'd probably still buy it. Hoenn is pretty much my favorite region in any pokemon game ever. :P |
Yeah, but regardless of R/S/E being compatible with the DS, it would still make alot of money if it we're remade and that's mainly what Nintendo are after also if R/S/E sold millions of units (which it did 10 Million+) then they would think that remakes would too likewise with G/S/C, not to mention that it would have changes to it most probally and if it we're released it may be in 3D on the 3DS, and at the speed their creating new consoles (Dsi, Dsi XL, 3DS) none of them are able to play GBA games by the time the 5th Generation games have been out for a year or so, the Nintendo Ds/Lite will be old and no GBA games will be compatible with the latest consoles but then again that's just my opinion.
|
This is the easiest question ever.
HELL YES! I personally love the R/S/E series. |
Aren't the RSE games obsolete? I dunno about the XL or anything, but the DSi doesn't have a GBA slot.
Aren't the RSE games obsolete? I dunno about the XL or anything, but the DSi doesn't have a GBA slot. |
yeah the remakes will be Called Magmaruby and Aquasapphire... but then again people thought the Johto/kanto remakes were going to be called Golddawn and Silverdusk or GDSD but they called it GSDS which i never understood why...
|
My original favourite was G/S/C but after the remake, I think I like R/S/E the most, My favourite region is the Hoenn region and i'd LOVE for a remake so much.

While I believe that Nintendo will remake R/S/E, they would remake it for the money. If we are talking about the games becoming obsolete, then FR/LG are gen III too and why would you remake a remake? (Although, I suppose it is possible.) I know that Hg/Ss (or S/G/C) has a Kanto region, but the region is three years after everything that has happened in Fr/Lg (or R/B/Y if you prefer) and can not be counted as covering a dying Fr/Lg game(not that they are dying- just in theory if we were claiming R/S/E is growing obsolete).
On the other hand, if gen V is made only for the DSi or 3DS (unlikely for 3DS, if their release dates are kept as they are right now, but things can change), then the excuse of the games becoming obsolete has some ground. It becomes too much of a hassle to bring pokemon over to your new game (but it is still possible and Nintendo could claim that if you desperately need one of your R/S/E pokemon there is a way unlike G/S/C, yet it means less money for them if they chose to claim that). Again, though, the question of Fr/Lg can be brought back up. Should half of gen III be brought up-to-date while the other half ignored? There are fans for both (fewer for Fr/Lg perhaps, but I'm one of them and I'm sure there are some others). Sorry if this post is confusing/long. I'm just trying to look at the situation from different (though slightly biased) perspectives. My personal opinion is that I don't really want a remake or think it is necessary. I never really enjoyed emerald that much (but I know that is just me and for many hoen was the best region, please don't shoot me because of my opinion). My final answer: I don't know, but suspecting yes (because of $money$ which wins every time).:cool: |
My favorite Gen, they better remake!
|
I think after the release of the Gen V games a remake of these two games could be the first Pokemon games released for the 3DS |
I'd love it if they remade Ruby & Sapphire. I started off with Emerald back then... so yes, I'd buy the remakes if they ever do decide to remake them.
|
If Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald were remade, I would hope it wouldn't be until after Black/White... and, for that matter, a bit of time after those two's releases. Iunno, as much as I love pokemon, I don't want there being OMGSOMANY of 'em being made, especially with the number of remakes there have been already (does that make sense?)
Still, WERE remakes made, and I was able to afford them, then yes... I admit I'd probably end up getting them. D: However, considering the fact that I'm sure R/S/E remakes would be for a newer DS (or perhaps even a whole new handheld altogether?) ... would be even longer until I actually picked them up. |
Yeah, if it were being made it'd have to be 3/4 Years AFTER Pokemon Heart Gold & Soul Silver (2012/13) That's following the rough cycle too, Pokemon R/S We're released in 2002/3, and G/S got a remake 10 years on, but R/B got a remake 8 years on so I don't know :P
|
Yeah I'd buy it though the 3rd gen wasn't really my favourite, the best thing about it was Mudkip in my opinion.
|
They better make a R/S/E remake! I think the one thing I really want it for would be the Battle Frontier. Emerald's Frontier was just the best, I loved how planned it was. With HG/SS and Platinum, they weren't that good, they seemed rushed IMO...
Also, who wouldn't want to hear a *better* remake of this theme? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hc0ecBXoLbA Even with the whole GBA games being compatible, and G/S/C and R/B/Y only got remakes so that it would be easier to get Gen 1 & 2 Pokémon, it's still a hassle doing it 6 Pokémon at a time, and then quitting your game, changing the date and repeat. *Well, for R/S/E and R/B/Y games at least.* With a remake, it would be easier to do it over WiFi, or with another DS/with a friend. Besides, it'll make money, why not do a remake? |
They've brought out the DSi and DSiXL, which have no GBA compatability.
Also, you could get the Johto legends and starters, and most pokemon, in 3rd Gen, couldn't you? Them legendaries, starters and wild pokemon from Hoenn were just added so you can get, I think, all 493 in a generation (especially with event Celebi and Mew coming out soon.) They will make R/S remakes. Hopefully, 5th Generation will be on the current platform (If they release another, already, it'll be rushed, and crap. And, honestly, still owning an original Emerald, the screenies'd have to be good for me to buy another console, particularly as I tend to only buy them for pokemon games). |
Yeah, Well with the DSi & Dsi XL and I assume the 3DS not having GBA slots, means R/S/E won't be compatible with the current handheld consoles (DSi, Dsi XL and so on) therefore after 5th gen it's a higher possibility it will be remade.
|
i didnt like the fifth gen it had good starters and legends but they wernt tat good compared to others
|
Then by this extension they'd have to remake FireRed/LeafGreen.
I doubt they would remake them as HGSS have Pal Park which can interact with Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald. |
Quote:
I would really buy them, would bring back memories. |

|
I kinda just bought soulsilver to get legendaries that i wasnt able to catch ( no lugia event or ho oh event for me )
but i wouldn't buy those two remakes.... i already can get those pokemon so i dont really care.... if there was a new pokemon maybe i'd consider it but if there is no change in gameplay then why would you buy it.... doesnt make sense the only thing cool about 3rd gen was abilities and mudkip |
It would make sence if they remade R/S they've already remade R/B, Now G/S therefore it would make sence if they remade R/S next, with the Dsi and upcoming handhelds being incompatible with GBA games.
|
I dont think the will make a Ruby/Sapphire remake as most of the legendaries in Hoenn can now be found in the 4th gen games... I would love to see a remake though, or at least I would love to see the return of the HM move dive.
|
My personal opinion, give it a few years and a remake probably will happen.
I'd be pleased with this as I never played through the Hoenn reigon. |
I would defintley buy it. But it might hint towards more of an Emerald remake than just a RS one.
|
I think they will make a R/S/E Remake after Black and White are released and then they'll make a 5th Gen remake of D/P/Pl then make a 6th Gen game, 6th Gen Remake of Black and White etc etc.
|
i think they'll remake these games in Gen V.
The gen I games were remade 2 gens later in Gen III and the Gen II games were remade 2 gens later in Gen IV. I think RSE will follow this pattern |
Quote:
|
Nintendo said that the pokemon company would be making a game on the 3ds. the japanese website said that the 5th generation pokemon games would be made on the ds, and they make a remake every other generation. IM BETING ON A REMAKE!
|
I probably would buy a Ruby/Sapphire re-make, I loved the originals. The only re-make I wouldn't buy is a Diamond/Pearl remake. I regret buying Pearl in the first place. e_e But I wouldn't be surprised if Ruby/Sapphire were remade, seeing that Red/Blue and Gold/Silver were.
|
i hope they do, i loved the R/S/E series ^_^
especially Wally :D and with the remakes thingy, i reckon nintendo will keep remaking pkmn to suit the new consoles out, lets face it, pkmn is an awesome adventure, lets not leave the early gens out xD ;) |
Quote:
|
I would buy them! I'd love to play through the hoenn reigon again! I really loved Ruby and Sapphire, they had so many new things! (Back when it was introduced)
That, and i want to battle Team Magma and Team Aqua again! And i wanna be able to catch Regice, Regirock and Registeel on a DS game without having to go to an event! |
Quote:
|
Personally i would like a whole new game with different concepts, than nintendo just rehashing old concepts. You don't have to have the hoenn region to make a game with primarily 3rd gen pokemon.
Its kinda like, been there done that, kthxbai Plus the baddies in hoenn sucked, can you say eco terrosism? |
They will remake them, and when they do I'll be in line to buy it!
|
I'm pretty sure after the 5th Gen Games are released, that will be the next game. The Hoenn remakes, they HAVE to make those Remakes. They remade every one else. I would totally buy it, Hoenn was awesome. : ]
Reliving the story in the HG / SS style or 5th Gen Style would be amazing. Think of the Sky Pillar, and Rayquaza appearing and such. |
it is going to happen. i think i wouldve outgrown it by then, tho.
|
There are going to be remakes and they are going to be the best remakes ever much like HGSS out did FRLG MRSA will out do HGSS and the other games in the 5 gen... though Isshu is coming out as a pretty decent region to explore... would love to see Hoenn with the same graphics, would make it feel bigger and people would forget that almost half of Hoenn is water...
|

Definitely, generation 3 and 4 both have three new games and two remakes, Maybe it will be the same for the 5th generation. Especially with the absence of a GBA slot on the DSi now the third gen games can't be played on newer systems. So I would expect to see them sometime after Black/White/Third Game (Grey?). Would I buy it? No, but only because I really think Pokemon was best in the days of generations 1 and 2. After that I think it went downhill. (Though generation 3 was not too bad.)
|
Gen II hinted at a remake of Gen I:
* Being able to catch Pokemon from R/B/G/Y * Going to Kanto * 8-bit graphics. Joking aside, I really don't think the "hints" are actually "hints" IMO. They are simply just certain things that are mentioned so the games feel like sequels. Other things are just a coincidence. |
Quote:
|
i think that there will be possibly be a R/S remake, but with some more recent features like using the stylus with the pokenav, along with possibly adding more features to the pokenav itself
|
Yes, there will be a remake of Pokemon R/S. Pokemon Dry Ruby and Wet Sapphire are the names of the remakes, in my opinion. Here's the pattern I figured out.
3 - 1 4 - 2 5 - 3 - 1 6 - 4 - 2 7 - 5 - 3 - 1 Who knows, there could be a remake of Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green in the Fifth generation of Pokemon! |

As long as they re-make R/S I'm happy. I dunno if I'll buy B/W, or purchase HeartGold for cheapness.
But R/S I'll get, even if I'm at university then |

It seems like it was just yesterday when I was eagerly awaiting new details each month for the third generation. I don't know, it just feels like they're so...recent, it's almost hard to believe I was 12 when they came out lol.
I don't know how they could improve the game, I mean, I know they definitely can, it's just, it seems like they JUST came out haha... |
Quote:
|
Does it not? The graphics on D/P/Pt look extremely dated, compared to Hg/Ss, which only has one flaw - floating on 3D bits.
Emerald and LeafGreen on the other hand....they look brilliant. So bright and cheerful! Emerald in particular, I think it's coz it runs faster, and as Hoenn's meanta be tropical, they deliberately coloured everything lighter |
Hopefully they will for the 3DS ^_^ Don't need another remake on DS, though.
|
I think its a little early to be talking about Black/White remakes but, if Nintendo went that far, what would they be called?
Obama Black and McCain White? |
Regarding an Emerald remake, the remade G/S this time and not Crystal. They just incorporated Crystal features into the storyline.
I think they incorporate Emerald features into the R/S remakes. |
Quote:
|
I wouldn't mind remakes for Generation 3. Hopefully they make Wally into a better rival. I liked his character despite his rather boring design.
|
My jaw just dropped when I thought of Kyogre coming in crashing through under the sea, Groudon busting through a wall, and Rayquaza blasting through the skies with a face-on view of him, then zooming straight into his face.
.....daaaaaamn I love Hoenn and I'll be dissapointed if theres no remakes <3 |
I want to see an Emerald remake especially. Best Hoenn game, IMO.
|
I also noticed something else, a music similarality.
Pokemon Platinum - Resort Area House http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3oiD3DhR5k Pokemon R/S/E - LilyCove City http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MStZNaTQLs8 Notice the similarity? |
Will the R/S remakes be made (and will they be DSi/3DS exclusive)
If the title of this is too long to be shown, it should be:
Will the R/S remakes be made (and will they be DSi/3DS exclusive) An Emerald remake would also be nice, of course, but since there was no remake of Japanese Blue, Yellow, or Crystal, it would be unlikely that Emerald would get a remake unless the presence of both Magma and Aqua changes that. A reason for DSi/3DS exclusivity (is that a word?) would be to stop owners of the Phat or Lite to import mons from the original R/S to the remakes (which would be useful due to Gen III Zigzagoon having only Pickup as an ability.) |
i really hope they make a r/s remake. i never liked emerald, but i loved ruby and sapphire. the storyline was great. the game was fun. i loved everything about it. <3
but if they make it for DSi i will scream. i bought GBA for pokemon. i bought DS for pokemon. i am not getting a DSi for no reason, as my DS works just fine <3. |
I personally think it's way too early to make a remake of R/S/E. In years and because it was only one console ago.
|

Not really. Gen III still holds up graphically and musically as a pretty solid game. Plus they don't have the battery failures of Gen II and the horrible graphics and comparatively short story of Gen I.
In another 10 years, they'll definitely do remakes. Though what they can add to stop Hoenn from sucking is going to take up a good three cartridges. |
right now, its too early. we need a handfull of other features to offer before we should seriously consider this. caaaalm down people.
|
I suspect they will be remade (hopefully for the 3DS because of how much better they could be done) for the money and, as PiPVoda said, we need the Hoenn region on a DS.
But, there is still the argument that gen I and II were remade because they had no compatibility with the newer gens at all. Also, what about FR/LG? (I know there was Kanto in HG/SS and we can get all the pokemon, but it really isn't the same.) Do you remake a remake? So, in review/summary: Will they remake Sapphire, Ruby (or Emerald- I think it was different enough with the two evil teams and all)? Yes, most likely; For 3DS? Ummm, maybe? It would be cool though. Also, (sorry for my rant, I just want to point out something real fast) how do we know this remaking games is a set pattern? Two remakes that have other reasons as to why they could have been remade do not a set pattern make. We (I'm including myself because I know I do this too) try to force pokemon into nice patterns and real world things (every pokemon is based off of some animal, every place comes from somewhere in the world, nothing can be pulled straight from imagination); Pokemon is still a game and does not have to follow all (or any) of our world's rules. /rant Thanks:D |
I'll so stab Nintendo if they ever make it DSi-exclusive.
|
I've make thread like this year ago, yes there will
|

why remake R/S? I think Gold and silver is as far as they should go. Beside Generation 3 is still useful with the Migrate ability
|
Quote:
|
A lot of people are saying that they wouldn't want one because they didn't like the original R/S/E... However, if they remade them, they could fix those faults. If they do remake them, however, I'd like them to handle it in much the same manner as HG/SS; at their core, they'd be remakes of Ruby and Sapphire, but they'd have lots of references to Emerald.
|
Quote:
|
Emerald was and still is my favourite Pokémon game.
So yes, I'd buy a remake. |
Quote:
|
The cool thing about this is that we would most likely get all three legendaries and have a story like that of emerald is what i'm expecting, rather than just mascot+rayquaza like in the original RS. Kyogre coming out of the sea would look much cooler than Lugia out of the waterfall in SS, as we would most likely have better graphics then what we did with HGSS...ah can't wait...
|
I'm quite sure! There will be the 3rd Gen remakes! Who knows, 3rd gen also had a Remake of 1st. To me, If the 3rd gen RSE won't compatible anymore to the 5th gen so as FRLG, Then why not FireRed and Leafgreen remake too? That's why I think there might be a chance we're getting two Generation remakes. 3rd and 1st! That's what I think in my mind, We'll just have to wait...
|
I would love to see an Emerald remake. Having both Aqua and Magma competing against each other and you, as well as the Battle Frontier, was amazing :D I'd love to see it rendered nicely for the DSi/3DS systems. :]
|
well maybe more Touchscreen feature like HGSS such as :
-Bottom Screen menu. -Mini Games. RSE sure had a lot in the Game Corner. -Pokemon Follow us. -Maybe like Pokeathlon appear in the Game! :D |
YES!!! 3rd Gen is my favorite Gen ever!!! Like this thread, Nice Job! :D
|
Provided they'll give us it on DSi, with just Hg/Ss standard graphics, pokemon following etc. instead of how Black/White appear, then I'll be happy
|
This Suicune™ guy tells that there's a Hint of 3rd gen remakes. I can see his point and it does make sense. To me the Hint is the characters.
Cloth http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/8464/brendan6.png Both has a similar cloth to me. though the 5th gen male has Blue and Brendan has Red colors. Symbol http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/400/brendan5.png Both has also a similar Symbols on their hat. Though Brendan only show the symbol half. But still similar. That's just my thought! I don't know how people think the same like me or not. But to me those similarity is sure giving me Hints that we'll getting a similar systems like 3rd gen and also 3rd gen to remake. |
After Black and White...
So far in the every Generation, there has been a new batch of pokemon introduced in a new game, and a remake of that game. It's been happening ever since the 3rd gen. Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald was the new and FR/LG was a remake of the old. Same with Diamond/Pearl/Platinum and HG/SS.
So what are they gonna remake now? Personally I think a remake of the Hoenn region in 3D design similiar to the screens seen in the 5th gen is next. |
I was hoping first for a remake of Kanto, you know the originals, but maybe add to the storyline, where you are able to go to Hoenn, meet May and Brendan and whatnot. I think that kind of game would be great.
|
Hmmm... It will inevitably happen and though remakes of 2 of the greatest pokemon games would be much appreciated i personally think they should try to come up with more original storylines as the outcome of a R/S/E remake would be somewhat predictable.
|
Quote:
I would love to see a Hoenn remake. There's so much hate for that Region in the fandom, but it's one of my favourites...even though I hated the graphics of R/S/E. :] |
Ruby and Sapphire will most likely be remade next (and I can't wait, because I would LOVE to see Hoenn in 3-D!). ^^ And then after that, a new region will be made.
|
Quote:
They remade HGSS according to GSC, and in GSC there's a "few years later from RBY" Kanto, so of course it's added in. And I will say the next remake is Hoenn. They won't remake a remade. |
Quote:
|
I don't really want to think that far.
I don't think that far about anything. |
I would love a Ruby/Sapphire remake. Hoenn was the region with the most diverse and beautiful terrain, and the GBA graphics never really did it justice.
|
Quote:
|
I personally would like to see a remake of Hoenn, despite it perhaps being my least favourite region. But that doesn't say much, since I loved them all, and spent many happy hours in Hoenn, along with some of my favourite Pokémon coming from Gen III. But if I had to list them in order, Hoenn would be at the bottom.
Whether its necessary or not remains to be seen, but they'd be stupid not to, really. Especially considering the extra money they'd make. |
im guessing they will release remakes of r/s/e. i would really like it if they made a remake of the 1st generation for the ds.
