NEWS: GOLD/SILVER VERSION

11/27 Thanks to Cccr81@aol.com, here are some info on the game.

Features 

New creatures including Hoo-Hoo, Napil, Rediba, and Elekid. 
New items including the Pokegear 
Real-time RPG using internal clock 
Game Boy Printer support 
For Game Boy and Game Boy Color 
Pokémon Gold/Silver is not just a tweaked version of Pokémon Red and Blue 
with new creatures there are new features to this adventure. All Pokémon in 
the game will be assigned a gender, either male or female. When you breed a 
male and female Pokémon, it will net an egg which Pokémon you've bred will 
affect how the Pokémon grows, as well as what abilities and attacks it will 
have as it gains experience in battle. Pokémon can also utilize weapons and 
items that you've acquired during the adventure.

Along with the Pokedex, the main character will have a new item called the 
Pokegear,a device that combines the function of a counter, data organizer, 
cellular phone and radio together into one unit. With the Pokegear, you'll be 
able to record the phone number of different characters and communicate with 
them anywhere in the world, or use the radio function to listen to the 
special Pokémon lectures from the Professor Oak. You can also change the 
music during the adventure with the Pokegear. 

One of the coolest features, though, is the fact that the game will be 
real-time. At the beginning of the game, you'll set the internal clock, and 
as you play the game, the day will turn to night and night into day at the 
appropriate times. The game will also have real-time events based on the 
battery-backed clock meaning you'll have to complete the event before the 
specified time. 

Like Pokémon Red and Blue, Pokémon Gold and Silver will restrict which 
Pokémon you can capture. Pokémon Gold will have creatures that you cannot 
capture in Pokémon Silver, and vice versa. The only way you'll catch them all 
is if you trade between the two versions. You can also trade with players 
with Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow, but those gamers cannot trade for the 
newer creatures in Pokémon Gold and Silver.

You get to choose to do the game as a girl or a boy.
