Now that we've got remakes on the way will you be replaying the original Ruby, Sapphire and/or Emerald to better reacquaint yourselves with Hoenn during the next few months or will you be avoiding the games?

I know the games off by heart since for about 2 years of my life I only owned Emerald and that was all I had for travelling with.

But yeah, I wanna play Ruby since I've never played it.

I've been here 6 years... Wow I'm old.

Well, I started playing Ruby a few months ago because I needed the legendaries from it, but I assume the new games will have the same legendaries if not more, which defeats my purpose. I've played RSE enough to know exactly what happens and to the point where I can remember some Trainers' names and teams o_0 so I won't be replaying RSE (unless it's for a challenge).

Yeah, i'll have to give it another play through. I have to do Ruby for my Ultimate Wedlocke, anyway, so I might zip through that in the meantime.

May someday resurface in full. We'll see what happens down the road!

Yes, I will actually! I've got my Emerald cartridge upstairs and I started a few weeks back, I'm only upto the second Gym so this will give me the motivation to complete it in time for November. :)

I probably will even though I've played through R/S/E at least 30 times by now. Never gets old! Would be a nice way to hype myself up for the remakes, especially if I dive into a challenge (pink monocolor yay).

I would have replayed my old games, but going back to pre-4th Gen mechanics would be hard for me since I've been too used to the modern mechanics for 6 years now.

For nostalgic purposes, I guess it wouldn't hurt me one bit to touch my Emerald version.

I've poured more hours into Sapphire than I have any other Pokemon game, so I probably won't bother playing through the entire game again before OR/AS come out. I'll probably just end up doing the same thing I did with Gold prior to HG/SS coming out- play around with it for an hour or two just before the game comes out, just to get even more hyped for the release.

I just started replaying Emerald about a week ago, the re-release makes me second guess whether to replay or not, I dunno. I love 3rd gen, real good times associated with it. Happy they're getting a remake, but because they still work with the current gen, I almost wish they would just leave them as is and develop a big, multi continent game with some kind of mmo element. Lots of mixed emotions here clearly, still processing.

Definitely. I love replaying them, and haven't in awhile due to XY and college. You can bet when I am off for summer break I will be playing through Hoenn!

I still love Emerald to death and am most of the way through a run right now so I'll finish that at least! I don't really need to do any re-acquainting though considering that I recently found out I know most of the random NPC teams by heart and can walk a fair amount of routes with my eyes closed. -v-;
