Pokémon Gold Black and White Silver: Game Freak needs to study this idea of merging remakes
Pokémon players are now used to it, but between two opuses of the main series, a remake of past versions is released. After Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire in 2014 and Pokémon Sparkling Diamond and Sparkling Pearl in 2021, it seems logical that a remake of the 5th generation versions will be on the menu. To avoid repeating the bad ideas of the remakes of the versions Diamond And Pearl while spicing up the initiative, an Internet user imagined a fusion of the fifth and second generation remakes.

Two regions in one, the idea has made more than one dream. Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire had the Delta episode when Pokémon Heart Gold and Soul Silver took the players on both the Johto and Kanto sides. Incredible remakes that the most nostalgic memories have not forgotten, far from it. Only, with Sparkling Diamond and Sparkling Pearl the franchise has come under heavy criticism.
Remakes which did not convince, in particular because of its 3D chibi style. Despite everything, the game ranked first in sales in Japan during the six weeks following its release. Logic you might say. Pokémon remains Pokémon. What’s next now? While a remake of the fifth generation is slowly coming to the fore with, hopefully, an announcement during Pokémon Day on February 27, a fan has decided to spice up the project.
On X, a certain EliteRobo shared his somewhat unusual idea for a remake. Rather than confining itself to a faithful adaptation of the fifth generation, the Internet user wanted to integrate a twist, a fusion with the second generation. Pokémon Heart Gold and SoulSilver having been released in 2009 in Japan, the following year here, more than a decade has passed since the second generation remake. A considerable amount of time which, according to EliteRobo, deserves a new remake to be imagined.
Merge versions White / Black And Gold / Money in remakes called Black Gold And Silver White in English, or Black gold And White Silver in French, an idea that makes you dream. “These are the regions we haven’t revisited in the longest time, so instead of doing two games, they would kill two birds with one stone.” he explains in the comments of his post.
Gen 2 remakes, Gen 5 remakes- Screw that! Let’s just merge them together!
Here’s a concept for “Pokemon Black Gold and Silver White”!
It would be a 2DHD game with both Johto and Unova, and some twists

Generation 2 remakes, Generation 5 remakes, who cares! Let’s merge them!
Here’s a concept for “Pokemon Black Gold and White Silver”!
It would be a 2DHD game with Johto and Unova, and some new features.
“In an ideal world this would be a 3D game with great graphics, but I tried to stay a little in reality – we will never have another Pokemon game with two entire regions in modern graphics. I completely understand that people don’t like it, it’s not everyone’s cup of tea..” he explains to an Internet user disappointed by the choice of 2DHD. A more detailed idea.
After customizing your character’s skin, eye and haircolor, you then choose your starter- any of the Johto and Unova guys.
You could beat Johto with Samurott, or beat Unova with Meganium, your choice!
When you move regions, you get another choice.
In Black Goldyou start in Unova, then move to Johto in the second half of the game, after obtaining the eighth badge and losing control of your Pokémon – and vice versa for Silver White.
You can choose between all the protagonists of Johto and Unova, even if the story boils down to HGSS/B1W1.
After customizing your character’s skin, eye color, and hair color, you choose your starter – any of the characters from Johto and Unova.
You can beat Johto with Clamiral or Unova with Meganium, the choice is yours!
When you change regions, you have another choice.
An idea that quickly caught on. Two regions in one with a pleasant twist in the middle of the game, enough to satisfy even the most skeptical. Unfortunately, it’s hard to believe that The Pokémon Company, Nintendo and Game Freak will agree to release a remake when they can release two, and thus double their sales. Despite the controversies and criticisms, Pokémon games are selling like hotcakes. However, it would be nice to see the license evolve further. Pokémon has existed for more than two decades, and the franchise has not been renewed as much as it should have.
Even if a turning point was encountered with Pokémon Legends: Arceus nothing says that Pokémon will continue this momentum. Hopefully the players’ complaints have been heard. Start of response in just a few days, on the occasion of Pokémon Day. And who says Pokémon Day, says Pokémon Presents and its myriad of announcements. What do you expect from this annual event in 2024? Remakes? The announcement of a new opus of the main series? Do not hesitate to respond to us via the comment section located just below.
