A video game remake is a game that is made again, in a new and updated style.
In Pokémon terms, three pairs of games are remakes: Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, remakes of the Generation I games Pokémon Red and Green during Generation III; Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, remakes of the Generation II games Pokémon Gold and Silver during Generation IV; and Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, remakes of the Generation III games Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire that will be released as part of Generation VI in November 2014. The names of remakes are derived from the name of the original with a modifier attached to the front.
Changes
In addition to graphical updates, each pair of remakes also included all Pokémon in the National Pokédex at the time of release and introduced new features, including new ways to find wild Pokémon.
FireRed and LeafGreen
- The Sevii Islands expand the main story and allow the player to obtain Pokémon native to Johto.
- The new stat system, Abilities, and updated movesets are carried over from Ruby and Sapphire.
- Genders, friendship and breeding are carried over from Generation II.
HeartGold and SoulSilver
- The physical/special split, foreign Pokédex entries, Pal Park, and the Battle Frontier are carried over from Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.
- The Hoenn Sound and Sinnoh Sound can be used to find Pokémon native to those regions.
- The Pokéwalker replaces the Pokémon Pikachu 2 GS.
- Photography is introduced.
- The Global Terminal is added to Goldenrod City.
- Walking Pokémon return for the first time outside of Amity Square since Pokémon Yellow, and now all Pokémon can walk with the player rather than just Pikachu.
- The Pokéathlon is introduced.
- Route 47 and Route 48 are introduced, which lead to the new Johto Safari Zone. The locations Cliff Edge Gate, Cliff Cave, Embedded Tower, and Safari Zone Gate are also added along this new path.
Impact on other media
Anime
Due to the release of FireRed and LeafGreen, in the Advanced Generation series Ash and his friends traveled back to Kanto to compete in the Battle Frontier (also a reference to Emerald) and Kanto Pokémon Contests.
Due to the release of HeartGold and SoulSilver, in the Diamond and Pearl series several references to the games appeared, such as the Pokéathlon in A Marathon Rivalry!, the Johto Festival introducing several in-game key items, Ash's main rival being Paul which resembles Silver in many ways, Lyra temporarily journeying with the gang and her attempt in participating in the Johto League, about half of the Johto Gym Leaders reappearing with their redesigns, and several main characters obtaining Pokémon in the Johto Pokédex like Dawn's Quilava or with a cross-generational evolution line like Ash's Gliscor he caught as a Gligar.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga, there are FireRed & LeafGreen and HeartGold & SoulSilver arcs which focus back on characters from older chapters respectively. However instead of focusing the whole region like the originals, the main plot consist with the expansion of their game counterparts, since FireRed & LeafGreen focuses on the Sevii Islands, and HeartGold & SoulSilver currently focusing on the new new Safari Zone and the Sinjoh Ruins.
In the Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪ manga, there are several bonus chapters focusing on characters from Magical Pokémon Journey respectively. As a Generation III arc of the Magical Pokémon Journey, this manga was being speculated by fans as a first hint for the remakes of Pokémon Red and Green (later was named as Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen).
