4th Gen Shinkansen in Pokémon Sunday is NOT a sign (August 2 updates)

[Ryanniny]

Mew was available in Pokemon Ranch and Deoxys has been involved in a Mystery Gift event, so those two have been made available for Diamond and Pearl directly. However, if this is true, then Latios and Latias are still left out. ...As is Celebi, disappointingly, although it is not a Kanto or Hoenn Legendary and will likely be saved for an event.

ah yeah forgot about lati@S
heh, maybe they'll crop up...
seeing as though they're getting rid of the need for GBA slot to get legendaries.

This is straight from Pokebeach:
This week's Pokemon Sunday has officially confirmed that Kanto will be in HeartGold and SoulSilver. Shokotan, the hostess in charge of the remakes' news, directly stated, "After you beat the Elite Four, you can go to Kanto." As seen to the right, the show then revealed a clip of Gold after getting off a boat. The blue text at the bottom of the screen says, "You go to the Kanto region by boat" and the sailor he is talking to asks, "You came from Johto?" The boat is the S.S. Aqua, which ran from Johto's Olivine City to Kanto's Vermillion City in the original games. Later, the show also revealed the redesigned Magnet Train, which looks very similar to the Japanese Shinkansen bullet train (which I rode!).
Additionally, the first Wi-Fi event for the PokeWalker has been announced in which a special course called "Yellow Forest" can be unlocked. The course is full of wild Pikachu available for capturing. Some of the Pikachu will have a special attack, but it is currently unknown. The Wi-Fi event will span from September 18th to November 10th in Japan.
There should be new HeartGold and SoulSilver information earlier than usual this month since CoroCoro magazine will be released on the 11th instead of the usual 15th. Thanks go to Yaminokame for all of the translations above!

Might I just ask who you are talking too? Anyway...
Is it me or did the port get changed a bit?

Umm... I'm new, but I've been keeping myself tuned in to all this HGSS buzz. It comes out on September 12 this year in Japan. There are currently 39 days until it comes out in Japan. If you need any more info, visit me if you can.

SO will the poke walker teach moves 2 your pokemon u dont want to learn or can u manage it using this device

 

[Sweet Smoochum]

With the Pokewalker, you don't get the experience until you send your Pokemon back to Heart Gold/Soul Silver. When you get your Pokemon back, it will level up and then it can learn new moves.

That's a good thing, too, because then you don't have to worry about going to a move tutor to reteach moves.

Anyone else notice how in Vermilion port, the water is moving underneath the floor? The floor is actually see-through so you can see the waves. It's really pretty.

Oh wow that train looks awesome! Looks just like one of the ones I saw while in Tokyo this summer. And look at that Poke Walker! :9

My excitement for this game keeps reaching new levels. :D

Very happy to see this stuff. So does it say you get to Kanto by Train and Boat or is the train used to go somewhere else?

It'll probably be the same situation as in G/S/C. You take the boat to reach Kanto for the first time, and then you have to complete the Power Plant subplot to activate the train.

Thank Jebus they are adding Kanto. I would've punched my neighbour's cat if they didn't add it in.
