    10. does he ever run out of capes?

    Actually it's revealed in FireRed/LeafGreen in the Fame Checker that Lance goes shopping for capes, so the answer is no, he doesn't run out.

    Has anyone looked at video of these games by any chance? Mount Silver went from easy to get through to a pain in the butt. So many small caves, waterfalls, and places to Rock Climb.

    Well being that is where the final final boss of the game is, I guess the designers decided that his "dungeon" should be a bit harder to get through.

    They did just that too. Mt Coronet is easier to get through.

    Well Mt. Coronet really isn't the last dungeon in the Sinnoh Games, it's used multiple times but just has different you need to take. Actually, there is no real last dungeon in the Sinnoh games being their isn't really a final final boss, it's pretty much Cynthia and that's it, what left to do is defeat the Elite Four & Cynthia again, beat your rival again, and in Platinum to go through the Battle Frontier.

    Now thinking about it, the only other games beside Gold, Silver, and their remakes (and Crystal if you want to get technical) to have a final final boss was Emerald which had Steven Stone. The Kanto games got the Trainer Tower in the Sevii Islands in FireRed and LeafGreen and the Sinnoh games only has the Battle Frontier as the last challenge.

    Recently Bulbapedia had decided to blow up the size of all the images as well as play around with the thumbnails of the images causing a few to be deleted. I went back and fixed my posts of the Johto Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Champion, Team Rocket Executives, Kanto Gym Leaders, and Artwork Comparison.

    However you'll either have to change or get rid of the one above as you quoted me so therefore it's considered your post.

    For all those collectors out there we have good news!

    You remember the Giratina Origin Forme Figure you could get when you pre-order Platinum? Well HeartGold and SoulSilver are getting the same treatment!


    Giratina: *sniff* I'm no longer special. T_T

    For Gamestop store, if you pre-order HeartGold you'll get a Ho-Oh figure and if you pre-order SoulSilver you'll get a Lugia figure:


    Lugia: Haha, I'm bigger then you.
    Ho-Oh: That's just because you spreaded your wings out and over your head, cheater.

    If you were wondering, yes this offer was also made available for the Japanese pre-orders. However in addition with this, the Japanese pre-orders got an extra bonus of getting an Arceus figure for ordering both games. However the U.S. pre-order hasn't mentioned about this bonus meaning we're possibly not getting it.


    Arceus: No export for you.

    Yay, the Ho-Oh one is kind of weak, they couldn't have something like is in a flying over flames with a rainbow following it? Heck, Lugia even outshines Arceus a bit (though Arceus doesn't need to be in an special stance, just being itself is already awesome enough... though I wouldn't mind if it had been in a cool pose).

    Ugh, HeartGold and SoulSilver are going to have two game guides just like D/P. Hopefully the second one doesn't have walkthroughs of the post E4 areas like D/P's did.

    The main guide also comes out on March 14. The second one (the national pokedex volume) comes out on April 20.

    Here's the cover of Volume 1. Awesome!

    Well a two volume thing for HeartGold and SoulSilver is easy, as the first volume cover shows it'll probably be all about Johto while the second volume will be all about Kanto.

    Also what do you mean by walkthroughs of post E4 areas?

    He means the stuff that only happens after the elite four like legendaries, Battle Tower, and the extra routes. Pulled out my own copy for conformation of these facts.

    Well unless the whole second book is about only that I don't see why they can't have a chapter in the second volume explaining that. Besides, like I said, the second volume will be about Kanto.
