    Do you think we'll be able to get some of the new evolutions introduced in the 4th generation before we obtain the nat dex? For example, Pokemon like Weasel and Yanmega, whose previous forms were introduced in the 2nd Gen.
     
    Definatly. I dont care if they do or dont, but it would be weird if like now that Gligar has a evo, that i just didnt evolve when i tried too....ya....
     
    It's actually possible to get swinub to learn Ancient Power in G/S, though mamoswine wasn't around until D/P/PN.
     
    You probably won't be able to evolve anything into a Pokémon created after the second generation until you get the second Dex when you beat the Elite Four or complete an easy challenge. But I'm guessing that if you acquired one from the GTS, the number would come up as a question mark and it wouldn't be registered in the Dex.

    There's also the fact that you have to already have a Pokemon seen in your Dex to be able to trade for it in the GTS.

    So, if all the Gen III and Gen IV Pokemon appear after the National Dex, then we don't have a problem with blocking the evolutions until then.
     
    I doubt that it's going to happen. Like .Sublime said, they blocked out 2nd gen. 'mons in FR/LG.
     
    well it is gonna wait until the national dex and then it seems hard to evo. some since theres not moss rock or ice rock
     
    There's a possibility it'll all be blocked out until after receiving the Nation Dex, but I wouldn't care if they added a few of the 4th Gen Pokémon, but definitely not all.
     
    Doubtful. As mention before, until you complete that task, I doubt your Pokémon will evolve. I think it would be better off that way, personally.

    That still doesn't prevent mamoswine though... Unless they make it impossible to learn Ancient Power by egg move/move re-learner in the game, kind of like where a two bulbasaurs would learn the same moves at different levels between Emerald and Leaf Green.

    They could do it like they did in FR/LG with Pokemon like Golbat.
    It would say:
    "What? ___ is evolving!"
    ...
    "Huh? ___ stopped evolving!"

    I'll edit this with a screen of that if I can find one.

    EDIT: Here's a link to Serebii showing how FR/LG prevented evolutions like that.

    I don't think on my team I'll have any Pokemon past the second generation on my team. It would ruin a remake in my mind.
     
    FR/LG =/= HG/SS

    I think they'll add it to the dex.
    HG/SS looks way hi-tech and improved, even compared
    to platinum, so I think the dex-size could be expanded.
    Besides, what's the point of removing pokemon.. I mean,
    FR/LG was Gen 3, this is Gen 4. Also, Ruby/Sapphire allowed
    the evolution of Golbat, so you never know. I think it's
    a 50/50 chance, really. You never know what they'll decide,
    But i doubt that "No evolution" is the higher choice.

    Nintendo would definitely make Gen. IV Pokémons appear the player beats the Elite 4. It happened in FR/LG.

    I, however, don't want to see that many Advanced Generation Pokémons to appear in this remake.

    FR/LG was technically Gen I. And HG/SS is technically Gen II. RSE allowed the evolution due to it being Gen III and FR/LG stopped it due to it being Gen I.

    I'm still pretty sure they'll go with the FR/LG formula of disabling the evolutions until a task is completed.
     
    Having the later generation Pokemon appear in Johto before the National Dex is given wouldn't make it feel like a remake. FR/LG is the only previous remake that we have to base some speculation on, and in those game, Gen II and III Pokemon weren't introduced in the storyline until after the National Dex was received.

    Even if someone trades over a later generation (III or IV) Pokemon to HG/SS, it will just appear as a ??? for the Pokedex number, and will be unable to evolve.
     
    I dont know, I wouldn't be surprised if they incluide them, but I would not bother me.
