Well yeah... you hotlinked an image from 4chan. Do you really expect it to last more than an hour or so, especially on a board like /v/?

The only reason you can still see it is because it's probably still in your cache.

It'll be nice to finally see some new official art for the Johto pokemon though.

They've been using the same art for years now. :/

Honestly, there have been so many fake scans purporting to reveal G/S remakes that I personally doubt that’s the real deal.

Its SO photoshopped...just look at where the game boxes overlap. Good try though, they even went as far as to write out the katakana for "Johto"...so much so that they copied it verbatim from the bulbapedia article (ジョウト地方, Johto-chihou, or "area")

I can tell just by Lugia and Ho-oh on the boxes. Seriously.

They look so out of place.

Let's make it more English than that...

Heart Gold, Soul Silver.

Heart Gold and Soul Silver. Well alright I guess. Names are a bit odd. I guess I was expecting something more along the lines of what they did with FireRed and LeafGreen.

Personally, I would have preferred something like "Golden Dawn" and "Silver Moon", but eh

Gee, those names are pretty... spiritual.
Awesome, though.

Appropriate, as Gold and Silver are incredibly spiritual games. Gen 2 is packed with buddhism and shinto references like you wouldn't believe (and it makes perfect sense that they would, as Johto is based on the Kansai region...), even a few of the Pokemon themselves hold spiritual meanings (Hoppip comes to mind especially)

Also the Sprout tower, where you had the monks preaching peace and coexistance. I enjoyed Crystal the most among all the Pokémon games, some how playing it makes me feel incredibly nostalgic.

And Bronze Tower, which burned down...actually has significance in some of our myths. I loved gold and silver because I'm a pretty spiritual person myself, so it all really touched home with me of course. That and the fact that they essentially made Bill an Osakan.

Spiritual, huh? Y'know, that makes a lot of sense.

Also, Serebii.net's got some pictures from some preview footage. It may be a bit too early to assume, but it looks like you may be followed by your starter.

I know it's a gimmick, but I still love that idea. D=

I'd love if you could choose one member of your party to have follow you, but having it just be the starter would make me happy too.

And now there's footage up. Kinda have to fast forward through it to see the tiny bit of footage of Chikorita following the player in New Bark Town.

There's something else to note: There's some wind effect going on in the scene. If that effect was already seen in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum, then my apologies, I haven't gotten there yet ; If it wasn't... then does this mean more visible weather? Or is it simply a season thing? Or is it just Johto is windier than the other region? Hm...

The footage is from 4:22 to 4:34. You can hear the new version of New Bark Town's music, although there's also an orchestral mix (sounds kinda like the version from the orchestrated Melee soundtrack) of the G/S/C battle music playing through the part of the actual show where they're discussing the starters.

Also: Pichu plushie @1:48. Adorable.

The Hoppip have to get around somehow

There's no wind effects in Sinnoh, I can say that for certain.

It's because New Bark town has "the winds of a new beginning", according to the town's sign also that orchestra music of the title screen was from the anime, so its nothing new.
