I actually just bought Pokemon: Black this past weekend, first Pokemon game i've played in about 8-9 years, yet the games are just as addictive to me now as they were as a kid, defiantly gonna try to get Black 2 when it comes out. (Hopefully I will have beaten Black 1 by then, I swear I'm so lazy when it comes to finishing games these days. Laughing )

"Roxie"? Oh, I get it because she's in a rock band. Laughing These dub names get worse every time.

I don't see how its worst. Rock band plus toxic is a fine name for her since toxic is related to poison, being her gym specialty at it.

"Roxie", as in "rock and roll" and "toxic", actually. Wink

EDIT: My 151st forum post would be one about Pokémon Laughing

What's with the desire for remakes? Usually people hate remakes, especially pointless ones.

Speaking of Homika. I love her song, and can see it being a Japanese meme.

The desire for remakes is because it seems that GF is going to be doing constant remakes of the games, with Firered/Leafgreen and HeartGold/SoulSilver.

Anyway, wow, the games really do have improved music capabilities now.

The only readon Red/Green and Gold/Silver were remade is because the way Game Boy and Color games were programmed prevented them from being compatible and trading with GBA and DS games. So remaking them for GBA/DS is the way to get those Pokemon for the current batch of games. There's no need to do remakes of Ruby and Sapphire since you can get Pokemon off them to the current game and they're compatible.

There actually is, though... The obvious reason being that GBA games are now obsolete as far as Nintendo is concerned (they no longer sell the NDS Lite). It does no respect to that area of the franchise to just leave Hoenn in the dust the way Johto would have been had HGSS not come out.
