    Ok so recently i got hooked on Pokemon after i picked up my brothers old gameboy pocket and Pokemon yellow. I bought Pokemon black. Now i want to buy another game, one that can be played on a ds (e.g ds and gameboy advanced games).

    The list of handheld pokemon games are:
    GameBoy Color

    Red, Blue, Green (JA, only) - September 30, 1998
    Yellow - October 19, 1999
    Gold & Silver - October 15, 2000
    Crystal - July 29, 2001
    GameBoy Advanced

    Ruby & Sapphire - March 17, 2003
    LeafGreen and FireRed - September 7, 2004
    Emerald - May 1, 2005
    Nintendo DS

    Diamond & Pearl - April 22, 2007
    Platinum - March 22, 2009
    HeartGold & SoulSilver - March 14, 2010
    Black & White - March 6th, 2011

    I guess i could buy a gameboy color game for my brothers gameboy pocket, but i like the trading/poketransfer features available on only ones playable on ds. So i like the firered/leafgreen because of the lengendary dogs ( suicune, entei, and raikou), i like emerald for rayquaza, but i looove soul silver because it has the possibility of catching practically every significant legendary pokemon ever (although you would need to do a couple of valuable trades to pull it off). any input is really appreciated, what you think of the games, which ones you have, which ones you prefer, etc. Ill be ordering off amazon, and the prices a pretty good. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me which one i should get :) thanks so so so so so much :)
     
    I would say get yellow, but yu said yu already have it. Yu could get Fire Red or Leaf Green then...I really like Crystal bt yu want a ds game, right? Get SS or HG then. My favorite are yellow and crystal! I'd say get SS/HG since you've already done a playthrough of 1st gen. I dont really like to catch legendaries though, and since almost EVERYBODY catches legendaries, i wouldnt say theyre too valuable now unless theyre from an event or something.

    I really suggest SS/HG for yu since yu like ds games and catching legendaries. But the game in itself is very fun too! Very addicting!! :D
     
    To be honest, i would finish Pokemon Black first. If you do finish and still as hooked as ever i would recommend getting HG/SS. You'll be playing it for ages and having a great time doing so :)
     
    Get HeartGold or SoulSilver, since you want to get the legendary dogs and Rayquaza.
     
    Since this has nothing to do with Black and White, and you've posted this in two other places, I'm going to go ahead and put the lock on this. Plus, there's no reason to make 3 threads all in different places, people will notice your question! There's also a Help thread sticky for these kind of questions, like the one in the Fourth Generation Games (DS) board. So do make sure you look for those things in the future.
