Pokémon HeartGold Version and Pokémon SoulSilver Version return players to the scenic Johto region first introduced in the beloved original Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver games nearly a decade ago. The richly detailed adventure of Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver is now enhanced for the Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi systems with updated graphics and sound, as well as new touch-screen features and a host of surprises. Pokémon HeartGold Version and Pokémon SoulSilver Version bring dozens of Pokémon characters back into the limelight for a new Pokémon generation - and longtime fans - to catch, train and battle.

Pre-Order Promotion: 2.5" tall Ho-Oh figure handcrafted by the internationally renowned figure makers Kaiyodo of Japan

The Pokéwalker Included: The Pokéwalker is a special pedometer that you carry with you that lets you take Pokémon fun wherever you go! You can transfer a Pokémon onto the Pokéwalker accessory using an infrared connection between the Pokéwalker and your Game Card. Then as you Stroll around with your Pokémon, it’ll earn Experience Points to gain a level. And you can even find items and special Pokémon while you’re on the go! The Pokéwalker is small enough that you can keep it in your pocket and take wherever you go. It also has a clip to hook it on your belt, and a hole for attaching a strap. It’s never been easier to take Pokémon with you! Pokéwalker The Pokéwalker counts the number of steps you take as you walk around. The more steps you take, the more Watts you earn, which you can spend to find items and Pokémon! When you transfer a Pokémon from your game into your Pokéwalker, you can select which Route you’d like to take your Pokémon along. Depending on which Route you take (such as in a grassland or by the sea), you’ll encounter different wild Pokémon and find remarkable items. When you first begin your journeys with the Pokéwalker, the list of Routes you can select from is short. But, the more you take a Stroll with your Pokémon, the more Routes will appear and the more Pokémon and items you’ll be able to get! Pre-Order Figurine: Reserve your copy of Pokémon HeartGold Version and you'll receive a highly-detailed 2.25" tall Ho-Oh figure; reserve your copy of Pokémon SoulSilver Version and you'll receive an equally amazing 2.5" tall Lugia figure! Both figures have been handcrafted by the internationally renowned figure makers Kaiyodo of Japan. These figures are a legendary addition to any Pokémon fan's collection. Reserve your copy today. Catch Wild Pokémon! After you’ve collected some Watts by going on a Stroll with your Pokémon, spend some of them to use the Poké Radar to catch wild Pokémon! If you see tall grass rustling after you use the Poké Radar, you know you’ve found a Pokémon. You have three options in the battle. You can attack, evade, or catch the wild Pokémon. By attacking, you can wear down the wild Pokémon to make it easier to catch. If you choose to evade when the wild Pokémon attacks, you’ll perform a counterattack! And when you think the timing is right, throw a Poké Ball to catch the Wild Pokémon. You can keep up to three caught Pokémon in your Pokéwalker at a time. If you catch a fourth Pokémon, you must choose one of them to set free. Find Items! Use the Pokéwalker’s Dowsing Machine to help find items. Like the Poké Radar, you use the Watts you earned while walking to use the Dowsing Machine. Some of the items you can find are quite uncommon! When you use the Dowsing Machine, you’ll see six patches of tall grass, and one of them has a hidden item in it. You have only two chances to discover the item! Some of the items you can get are really hard to find and very valuable, so keep hunting! Time to Transfer! Once you’ve found Pokémon and items using your Pokéwalker, you can send them back to your Pokémon game. You can only keep up to three Pokémon and three items in your Pokéwalker at a time, so be sure to send them to your game when your inventory fills up! Remember, if you catch a fourth Pokémon in your Pokéwalker, you’ll have to swap out one of the three Pokémon you’ve already caught. The Pokéwalker Journal After your Pokémon has spent some time in your Pokéwalker, you can get a recap in the Pokéwalker Journal. The journal tells of all the places the Pokémon has been and the things it has found while traveling inside your Pokéwalker! For example, if you catch a particular Pokémon while out on a Stroll, your Pokéwalker Journal will make note of it. It will also keep track of how your Pokémon has behaved while inside your Pokéwalker! Pokéwalkers Communicate with Each Other! The Pokéwalkers don’t communicate only with Game Cards—they can also communicate with each other! When you connect Pokéwalkers with a friend, you’ll both receive an item as a gift! You can connect two Pokéwalkers via infrared signal by pointing them at each other. When you do so, both players will receive an item! You can receive up to ten items by connecting to your friends, but you can get only one gift per person, per day.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a GREAT remake of the Gameboy Color Original, March 16, 2010

This review is from: Limited Edition Pokemon HeartGold Version with Figurine (Video Game)

I bought both Heart Gold and Soul Silver for my nine-year-old boy. I have lupus with photosensitivity and don't get to spend a lot of time outside with him, and I don't like to just plug him into a video game, so I compromise by playing video games with him. Those games have to be interactive and interesting enough to not drive me crazy. The ds pokemon games take care of both those concerns.

He chose Soul Silver for his game, so this one is mine. It's been years since I looked at the old Gameboy Color games, but this one seems to be just like the old one, except for the enhancements that came along with the double screen and the touch pad. The music includes more recent themes as well, but it makes me happy to hear the older ones.

My son absolutely loves the pokewalker. I love the idea of the pokewalker, but I haven't used mine, yet. We have used his to take his pokemon down to the park to take advantage of the not-too-bright sunlight.

The figurine is cute, but Ho-Oh is not as well-crafted as Lugia. Lugia is magnificent and is rendered consistently with the better graphic capabiiities of later games. Ho-Oh looks like he's straight off the Gameboy Advance. At best. I'm still very happy with the purchase, though.

Both Heart Gold & Soul Silver come with a poke-pedometer. Really, really nice. My son & some of his friends (ages are from 15-17)wear their poke-pedometers even in school & go out & play/walk/etc. more because there are rewards that you get in-game from all that walking.
I wish more games would encourage kids to not just sit & play but also get out & be active so they can get rewards when they do sit down to play.

This review is from: Limited Edition Pokemon HeartGold Version with Figurine (Video Game)

amazing, and quite possibly the best game ever made on DS. i was dissapointed with pokemon diamond but with this game i can relive the past, and go for walks with my pokemon.

Gameplay: the same as all handheld pokemon RPG games. collect pokemon, battle, train.

Sound: remade classic tunes, along with stepping sound affects. listen to the stream as you fish! hear the grass rustle as you catch wild pokemon, or listen to the radio. faultless.

graphics: Updated graphics are awesome! apart from some amazing scenes in the game, they are very similar to pokemon diamond.

overall: A great place to start if you are new to the franchise and a great remake, it like im meeting an old friend! Here i come Houou/Ho-oh!

oh yes... and im 18, i still love pokemon and always will! *thumbs up*

but ninty, for lugia's sake, please bring us an rpg on wii! or at least PBR in rpg mode!
