4th Gen HeartGold or SoulSilver?

[KingCarini]

HeartGold, for a couple of reasons. First, it's the one I bought because I grew up on Gold. Second, I like the version exclusives of HG better than those of SS. Third, I like having access to Ho-oh early on and then Lugia at Lv. 70. And lastly, I think Bellchime Trail has to be my favorite area out of every pokémon game. Awesome design for that map.

 

[Starry Windy]

I picked HeartGold, because Ho-Oh flying in screen is epic!

 

[Deceit]

I have both games now, but if I had to choose one, it would be SoulSilver, since I've had some pretty good memories with the original Silver when I was a child. Having SoulSilver brought back the memories. And honestly, the main difference is the version exclusives, which I didn't really care much about, though I must say I prefer the HG ones.

 

[Schwan]

SoulSilver, because I had Silver as a kid. I also feel like I fit with the Silver colour more than Gold.

 

[Meganium]

SoulSilver hands down, not only because I played Silver first, because some Pokemon I want for my team, especially Chinchou/Lanturn, are exclusive to Soulsilver. I gotta have that Pokemon on my team, ya know? xD

 

[mikey]

I got myself HeartGold because I had Pokemon Silver long ago and wanted to try out Ho-Oh. I did enjoy myself, and I got my Lugia on 70 so it all worked out xD

 

[pikakitten]

I got Heartgold because I love Lugia but I rarely gave Ho-oh a chance, glad I did though xD

 

[Gary0ak]

I played Gold first, so I got SoulSilver, I wish I could see the Ho-Oh scene on my DS Though D:

 

[Rissa_Napier23]

I chose HeartGold, because my boyfriend and I always buy the companion games. I have Diamond, and he has Pearl, I have Sapphire, and he has Ruby, and so on and so forth.

It's just a thing now, I guess. xD

 

[TrainerTori]

I had silver when I was a kid... I don't even remember why - probably because my best friend had gold.
But I got soul silver because of that ^__^

 

[PikachuAddict]

SoulSilver because I love Lugia and the other version exclusives.

 

[Pillowing]

I use to be a Silver girl growing up. Mostly because I preferred silver jewelry and I loved Lugia.

But now as I replay HGSS, I have to say I'm a complete HG-girl now! I love Ho-oh to bits and I'm so glad I got into playing the games again!

 

[blue]

Soul Silver.

I played Silver back in 2000, I prefer the name to HeartGold and I just generally prefer SS over HG.

 

[Seth Rollins]

Heart Gold.

I don't know why, I choose the games randomly.

 

[atie]

I had both Gold and Silver (I had first gold but after watching Pokemon2000 I wanted the Lugia and thought that I could only get Ho-oh on gold)

nowadays I like Ho-oh more because of it's type Fire-flying and what I really disliked about Lugia is that he isn't a water-flying (that was a major childhood dissapointment) even though I like the appearance of Lugia better, Ho-oh is still my favourite of those 2
so 1 point for Heartgold

the version exclusives top 5 IMO:
Arcanine>>Ninetails -HG win
Kabutops>>Omastar - SS win
Kyogre>>Groundon -HG win
Gligar/scor>>Delibird -HG win
Skarmory>>Mantine/tyke -SS win

Heartgold would be a obvious pick for me...

 

[Treecko]

HeartGold because I had Gold version as a kid and the original has so many good memories. I remember I got both Gold and Silver as a First Communion gift from one of my teachers. I had to chose one and give the other to one of my brothers, so for some reason I went with Gold and so my older brother got Silver. So the original Gold has so many memories for me. PLus I like HG's version exclusives alot more.

 

[Cerberus87]

HeartGold because Ho-Oh. But I was robbed of Groudon, which is only in SoulSilver.

 

[JohnnyJ773]

I chose HeartGold becauseI had the original Gold in the past and plus Growlithe is exclusive to HeartGold.

 

[Angelroid]

I went with HeartGold for the Pokemon in it.

 

[Vei]

I chose Heart Gold because Ho-Oh is one of my favorite Pokemon. Even though you can get it in Soul Silver as well, I preferred how it was the featured Pokemon.
