This. I like Kanto and all but I don't want another rehash of the same generation we already have. I want to see what happened to Kanto after Johto seemingly took over. I don't know about everyone else but, in my opinion, Gold/Silver/Crystal/SS/HG had made Kanto seem like people were moving away and the region becoming deserted. Plus, we already saw how things had changed in 2-3 years. I want to know how it becomes 10+ years later.

I could see them reusing a lot of the areas for Gen 1. My only really big want would be for them to use Lumiose City kind of graphics for Saffron City (or maybe Fuchsia City) and give it the kind of towers that are in Super Smash Bros. I just hope they wouldn't add any more cafes.

Hiatus October 23rd, 2014 6:11 PM

I agree, them using Lumiose City graphics and whatnot would be pretty cool. I've always loved Castelia from Black and White due to how unique and city-like it seemed, but they've managed to impress me (as well as a lot of others, I'm sure) even further with Lumiose.

Though, I could imagine them improving and changing some things before incorporating, so that things don't closely resemble. If they're creating these remakes on a newer generation, I believe they'd be pushing their graphical style more, and with that, things such as buildings, trees, streetlights, and so forth would be looking more dynamic, I feel.

If they're planning to make these games sequels rather than remakes, I suppose things could be changed even further, with, as an example, buildings and whatnot being added or removed.

My only scare for a Lumiose-like Saffron city is if they add Cafe or Cafe-like places that don't really have that great of a use. I would love for them to make it where you could go into a building and maybe go out onto their second/third/fourth/whatever floor and look out a window and see what the area looks like from that angle. I would have loved to have been able to do that in Lumiose. That, or look from the top of Prism Tower and see the city.

Hiatus October 24th, 2014 5:59 PM

Yeah, that would be pretty cool; it'll be nice to be seeing the city through window from a different angles and whatnot, which could perhaps be able to show us some things we weren't seeing before, such as items hidden between trees (hope I'm making sense!).

I'm not sure what their chances are of getting a hold of such an idea, but I'm sure it won't be too tough for them to execute, considering that they've officially moved away from 2D graphics in generation six.

Skat October 27th, 2014 7:06 AM

It would honestly be a great idea especially for the people who never had the change to play those games(Like me -sniffle-) and maybe it would be more facinating in 3D for the newest age since the old graphics wouldn't impress anymore but think of the other side.
If the kanto region would be recreated the old pokemon fans(not all but most) would of may be bored to it since they will see the same pokemon over and over again which might make them to lose their impress and it would be like the Game Freak is staying on the old fashion and probably don't have any ideas of new pokemon so they keep updating the old games which might be boring to watch and play the same plot and characters all the time being.
On the other side they have been already making Alpha Shapphire and Omega Ruby which will be released soon and this is already an old remake which will allow alot of people having the taste of the old and new fashioned pokemon style as the mix of Kanto and Y X generation which will be really interesting and fun but it will be a little bit worrying if they will get to make a 3d remake of Red and Blue because it will put us to think pokemon is remaining out of ideas so there may be no other pokemon generation.And trust meh the 70% of people who enjoy the pokemon series and games out there are already curious for the next generation and the new pokemon and we all are waiting with a small agony to see what other surprises Game Freak is having for us.

Maybe because the newest fans might stick better with the new ideas,sadly we can't bring every past games to life because this way we will see older pokemon again and again and it might be awesome sometimes but sometimes it's not.And Pokemon will lose many fans this way if you will think about it,despite how exciting it might be.
Imma sorreh if this message sounded non-friendly or rude(or dissapointing),I never had those intentions I am just saying a small opinion on that threadeh.

But on the other hand Game freak would do that as a bonus update on the next generation?It would be like even more excited if they will be able to update the older generation with a huge mix of the new ones and there might be a different and more exciting plot to complete!

blue November 7th, 2014 2:49 PM

I'd say this has some potential now. I remember reading somewhere that the game-origin value for X & Y is 24/25 and Alpha Sapphire & Omega Ruby is 26 and 27 respectively. This means that only two more games can display a pentagon on X/Y (28 & 29) and with the 20th anniversary release of Red & Blue approaching in 2016, it would be a very suitable release in that time frame. It would also mean that Generation VI would last for 3 years, just as Generation V did.

Also to mention the fact that Fire Red & Leaf Green were released two years after Ruby & Sapphire, and two years after 2014 (release of ORAS) would be 2016 (the 20th anniversary).

mew_nani November 7th, 2014 4:33 PM

It might be neat to have a new remake of Pokemon Red and Blue. A lot of things were planned for Firered and Leafgreen but were cut due to time constraints, like Sevii Isles 8 and 9, and there's a ton of strange things that could be neat for events (Pattern Bush anyone?) But if they try and push Mega Evolution and retcon a bunch of things just for that I probably won't be too happy,

But I do have one request.... Can they PLEASE put Mew under the truck?

Sopheria November 7th, 2014 4:35 PM

I think it would be really cool to revisit the Kanto region in 3D. At the same time...two remakes in one generation, one of which being a remake of a remake? Doesn't seem likely to me. The idea of a sequel or at least a game that takes place in the Kanto region but at a different point in time with a different story has potential, imo.

I'd just really like to see regions finally get re-visited for once. It's like we only ever have one adventure in a region, and then it just goes stale and we never get to see how the worlds develop or how the region and characters change with the passing of time--that's part of the reason why I loved BW2 and GSC so much. It'd be nice to see them finally start revisiting the regions, especially Kanto :)

Hiatus November 7th, 2014 5:50 PM

Yep, I second the games being sequels (taking place at a later time) due to all reasons I've stated in my previous posts, haha. Though, most of it is from my own point of view, but am sure many of us could agree.

We've visited Kanto around four times thus far, with two focusing around original plot, and other two being connected with Johto storyline, if you know what I mean. If we're going to get another chance to see this place at some point in future, I believe it would be pretty intriguing to see how Kanto develops itself years after initial RBGY events.

Voltobal November 20th, 2014 12:33 AM

I don't know if someone already mentioned this idea, but what about a Blue remake on the Wii-U (in stunning HD *drools*) with all 151 Pokémon catchable. It's unlikely, but if they ever will make a main entry Pokemon game on a home console, the Wii-U is the perfect (and only) choice for it thanks to its controller.

GiraKoth November 20th, 2014 12:58 PM

They will never make a main entry Pokémon game on Wii U or any other home console. They already explained why (because Pokémon mean Pocket Monster and so the game has to be portable).
However, seing a BRY remake could be nice, and the fact that there's still two games for Gen VI (see what Hoenn said before), that could be a possibility (but we could also get XY sequels for exemple).
If those remakes are made, which is quite possible with the coming of Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green 20th anniversary, however, I wonder what they could add more...

Mega_Kris November 20th, 2014 2:57 PM

Normally I would like a remake but each time they make a remake they add in some of the current Gen Pokémon. That's a bit of an issue for me as it completely distorts the the series and the Gen order....I personally wouldn't mind if they made a duo title where they have both the Gen I and II story. Their both heavily interconnected and I rather have it close to the original as possible.

That includes using Kris rather than Lyra.

epicbiscuit23 November 20th, 2014 3:19 PM

No. Red and blue got remakes. On the GBA

Hiatus November 20th, 2014 5:12 PM

If they do decide to create another Red and Blue remake in future, on whatever console it may be, I believe it would be nice if they were to add more events in Sevii Islands. When it comes to creating remakes, I don't believe they don't have to put much effort into writing scripts, as they already have them available from previous versions (though, I could imagine them to update a few things for compatibility reasons). With that in mind, if they do decide to make new ones, these could turn into "extras," which don't necessarily have to be part of main story-line (post-game, rather--more Sevii Islands content). I hope I'm making a bit of sense here, haha. Though, none of this would matter if they decide to go with sequels, and not remakes.

The ??? December 18th, 2014 11:03 PM

Like most of people here said.. If gamefreak develops a game with an updated looking Kanto that has various new important characters, few sidequests, some NPCs that talk about Kalos, Unova etc region.
Orange League, a great story of Legendaries (like in hoenn, sinnoh) etc..

I'd buy the **** out of this game. After all, Kanto is my favourite region. WE NEED A GAME LIKE THIS!

morrison December 19th, 2014 1:25 AM

they could make a 20 year anniversary in which the kid of the original protagonist gets his first pkmn from gary oak and have a new story.

It would be interesting to see how the story unfolds! If our original protagonist were to get his or her own child and whatnot, Professor Oak would likely be retired by then, so getting starter Pokémon from someone else is an option. Obtaining them from Gary Oak would seem right; he might not precisely be a professor himself (nor an assistant, like Bianca), but he would indeed be a former Champion, and being handed something by such a person does sound like a good way to start off the game (at least to me). I hope I'm making a bit of sense here, haha.

Wicked3DS December 19th, 2014 4:32 AM

I can't believe this thread is still going :P

A Pokémon from Gary Oak for Red's son, eh? That sounds pretty awesome.

I was just thinking last night how awesome it would be if we got a remake of the original games. They could do a whole lot of different things to shake up the game and make it a brand new experience.

BettyNewbie December 19th, 2014 10:51 AM

This is kind of a controversial topic (as I've learned the hard way elsewhere), but here are my thoughts...

Now that OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire are out, Generation 1 is the last Generation to be unavailable on the 3DS, as neither RBY or FRLG can be played on anything newer than a DS Lite (a very obsolete handheld that's only becoming harder to find as time goes on). Furthermore, the games themselves aren't exactly easy to find, either. Being GB/C games, RBY suffer from dead batteries (albeit, not to the extent as GSC) and extremely outdated graphics/mechanics. Even FRLG aren't a whole lot better, lacking all of the graphical and mechanical improvements (as well as Pokémon) that have been added to the games after Gen 3, and since they were created for the most hacked/bootlegged handheld ever, finding a legit copy is an absolute nightmare nowadays. (And, if you find one, get ready to pay a ton of $$$ for it, because old Pokémon games sell for big bucks, nowadays.)

Aside from the gameplay/mechanical reasons, there's another valid reason to remake Generation 1 again--The timeline. Aside from the obvious reason of having Fairies and Megas exist in both Hoenn and Gen 1 Kanto (which are supposed to take place at the same time), there are also some HUGE continuity conflicts between Yellow and FRLG in regards to HGSS, as I've explained elsewhere:

Quote:

I think the root of the whole problem with the "remakes vs originals" argument is the fact that FRLG didn't incorporate anything from Yellow, despite that being the canon game for Gen 1, as established by GSC, and HGSS were designed more as GSC remakes than FRLG sequels, so the Yellow callbacks remained, even though they no longer made sense with the timeline.

Just like HGSS were able to merge the Gold/Silver and Crystal storylines, FRLG should've also been able to merge Red/Blue and Yellow. They could've given all of the Gym Leaders their Yellow teams, for example, and had Jessie/James appear just like they did in Yellow (except as a double battle, this time). Also, they could've given the player a non-evolving Pikachu with a Light Ball early in the game (Viridian Forest, maybe?) and handed out the other two starters somewhere in the postgame. And, ideally, Pikachu (and the starters) would've always been following you, just like in Yellow.

(Interestingly, one Yellow-exclusive that almost returned in FRLG was the Pikachu's Beach minigame, as proven by unused data for a house interior located on Route 19. So many missed opportunities with these games...)
A proper remake that either straight-up remakes Yellow or incorporates elements from both Red/Blue and Yellow would solve this debate once and for all.

Precisely this... the twentieth anniversary of Pokemon is next year. This is a monumental milestone for many gaming franchises, and what better way to celebrate than to give the original fans a blast from the past, while letting the new fans experience what we did years ago?

Much like you said, but a bit of my own personal opinion, I'd really just like to see a special Yellow remake next year. That way the folks that would argue about FRLG being the R/B remakes wouldn't have a reason to complain. Yellow was Red/Blue but in a way... better. The likelihood of this occuring, however, is slim. The reason obviously being that Yellow was supposed to mimic the Anime, and the Anime is so far along that many new fans wouldn't quite understand. I could be completely wrong, however.

Needless to say, as much as many people might rage about it, 2015 needs to bring about remakes for Red & Blue, or just Yellow. It'd be a nice 20th anniversary 'gift' to the original Pokemon fans that still play the series, and it'd introduce the new fans into the stories that started it all, brought forward to better technologies for ease of access.

How was Yellow established as the canon game anyways? Is it because Red has Pikachu and all of the Kanto starters?

Yellow is more of a special instead of a proper third version. FrLg incorperated things from the "proper third version" which was Japanese only, that being blue with the appearance rates and exclusives.
It'll be weird to have two pair of remakes in one Gen, especially since all of the Kanto legends and the starters/mascots are available in XY. It'll be better if GF start Gen VII in 2016 (the 20th anniversary) and make the games take place in Kanto or perhaps in what lies north of Kanto and have Kanto for post game.

The entire first Generation, in general, is old now. Did you know when FRLG came out? 2004. That's 10 years ago. There are many fans who were in diapers or weren't even born yet when those games were released.

And, they were made for an obsolete handheld with obsolete graphics and mechanics. Hard to believe it, but FRLG didn't even have things like a physical/special split or a real time clock, let alone Fairies and Megas. Do people really expect newer fans who want to experience the first Generation to go hunt down a DS Lite and deal with graphics and mechanics far older than they're used to? Sure, emulators exist, but they're not entirely legal, and they don't have any connectivity with the newer games, so they can't be a solution.

And, then, there's the timeline. FRLG don't even take place on the same timeline as the newest games anymore, and just as Paramount isn't rushing to make another spinoff of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Game Freak isn't rushing to continue the storyline of Beta Reality Prime. You can't make a sequel of something that doesn't exist, and as far as GF is concerned, Generation 1 doesn't.

A new remake is the only way to go at this point, and a 20th Anniversary Yellow remake (as you suggested) would be the perfect way to do it. Anime references or not, Yellow is more canon than the other two (in regards to GSC), and it *is* a better, more complete game--all three starters, better Gym teams, game versions of the TRio (Who would be a double battle in a remake), following Pikachu (who would have the Light Ball in a remake), etc. Bring it on!

Oh, not this argument again. *eyeroll* If any game was a "special edition," it was JP Blue. It was only released to subscribers of a certain magazine, and only in *one* country. It didn't bring anything new to the table except less-ugly graphics and different wild encounters (which weren't actually carried over to FRLG, anyways).

Yellow, on the other hand, was a true Third Version, in that it altered the plot and added new events and characters, just as Crystal, Emerald, and Platinum would later do for their respective Generations. Just because it took a few cues from the then-popular anime doesn't make it any less canon (or, good, as it's often implied).

Now, as to why it's canon in regards to GSC, well, I wrote this at another site:

Quote:

The most canon version of Generation 1's story is undoubtedly Yellow. There's just no getting around Red's canon team. Why else would he have an overleveled Pikachu as his ace if it wasn't his (non-evolving) starter? And, in what other game could you get all three Kanto starters without trading? Based on Snorlax and Espeon, his team was clearly meant to be entirely made up of Gift/Event Pokémon, and Yellow is the only game where all of those Pokémon were given to you.

But, it's more than just Red's team. It's Koga and Erika, as well. Koga's ace was Weezing in Red/Blue, while it was Venomoth in Yellow. Guess which was on his GSC team? (Hint: It was the violet moth.)

Similarly, Erika's ace was Vileplume in Red/Blue, while it was Gloom in Yellow. Her ace was Bellossom in GSC. Bellossom comes from Gloom, not Vileplume. You do the math.

And, it's also worth pointing out that Red and Blue's GSC sprites are direct recolors of their sprites from Yellow. The Yellow sprites also happen to more closely resemble their official art than the Red and Blue sprites.

The only thing in GSC that explicitly points back to Red/Blue instead of Yellow is Blue's team, but even then, it didn't include a starter, so that doesn't mean a whole lot. And, that's just one Red/Blue reference among all of these Yellow references.

Now, as for Jessie and James... Some may ask, "If Yellow's canon, then why weren't they in GSC?" And, to that I say, "So what?" Lorelei and Agatha neither appeared or were referenced in GSC, either. Are they not canon, as well? Three whole years separate Yellow from GSC, so who knows what became of Jessie and James in the time between then? They might have been in a completely different region for all we knew.

ggctuk December 20th, 2014 2:42 AM

Given Yellow was my first ever GB game (and indeed the first game I ever played), I would love to see a game based on it, or a full-blown enhanced remake, with all the features that have made it into the Generation VI games so far.

I don't think GF will be able to make the Yellow (and maybe they should add Blue too to make it a pair) remake in time though...as Gen VI seems like it only has two games left according to rumors about the games coding having data to trade to six versions, two being XY, another two apperantly are OrAs, and that only leaves 2 more which are likely Sequels/prequels/dual third versions or Pokemon Z and Delta Emerald. Well I guess they could go with Z and make Thunder Yellow...
Anyways it'll be lame as we can get all of the starters and all the pokemon from XY with ORAS filling in the gaps minus Mew...I think it'll be better for Gf to save it for the 25th anniversary in 2021 (which will likely be after DP remakes).

Btw FrLg still take place in the same timeline as ORAS except that ORAS is in alternate version of that same time period.
Actually one of the few reasons I would support a Yellow remake coming out this generation is that I want to see alternate Kanto in a world where Megas exist without them needing to contradict Gen VII anymore than it already contradicts itself. Well that and I wouldn't mind seeing a Mewtwo versus Mew post game similar to how we had the Delta Episode have Rayquaza Vs. Deoxys.

Frankly, it would be dumb to remake Gen 4 before Gen 1. Diamond may be getting old, but it can still be played on a 3DS. LeafGreen can't. Plus, Gen 4 still has things like a Physical/Special split, a day/night cycle, and 3D graphics that neither version of Gen 1 has.

Sure, *I* still own my old GBC, GBA SP, and Blue/Yellow cartridges (with working batteries, even), and the outdated graphics and mechanics of those games don't bother me a bit. But, that's not the case for most people, especially younger fans. They don't have any way to play the first Generation outside of 10-15 year old games on emulators, which as I said, will never be a solution.

An "alternate version of that same time period" is a different timeline. FRLG only exist alongside the original RSE, where Dark/Steel existed, but Fairies/Megas didn't. They can't exist in either the Alpha Reality (ie. RBY and GSC) or the Omega Reality (ie. ORAS and XY), because they would contradict too many details.

Yes, there is a version of Gen 1 that takes place in the Omega Reality, but it's a game that we haven't seen yet. That's where a new remake would come in.

That's exactly why I want a Yellow remake, too. I'm ready to see a modern Gen 1.
