'''Pokémon HeartGold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターハートゴールド''' ''Pocket Monsters Heartgold'') and '''Pokémon SoulSilver Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターソウルシルバー''' ''Pocket Monsters Soulsilver'') are paired [[Generation IV]] remakes of the [[Generation II]] games {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.

Much like {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} revisited the [[Generation I]] story of [[Kanto]], HeartGold and SoulSilver will revisit the story of [[Johto]], with the player's starting area being [[New Bark Town]]. Currently it is not known whether the remakes will retain the ability to visit Kanto after defeating the [[Elite Four]] that was present in the originals.
[[Image:0248.png|400px|left|thumb|PokéGear Version 2]]
Like FireRed and LeafGreen, several enhancements will be made to the games to bring them up to speed with Generation IV, including adding features and Pokémon introduced in Generations {{gen|III}} and IV, and possibly including some plot tweaks to do so. It has also been confirmed that brand new features, never before seen in the series, will be introduced.

Like the [[Pokétch]] in [[Pokémon_Diamond_and_Pearl_Versions|Diamond, Pearl & Platinum]], the [[PokéGear]] will occupy the touch-screen of the Nintendo DS when not in battle. It will feature most of the same apps as the Pokétch, and will include additional features such as phone and radio stations.

==Trivia==
* These games will mark the 10th anniversary since the release of the original Gold and Silver Versions for Game Boy Color.
* The remakes were long [[Pokémon Gold and Silver remake speculation|speculated]] in light of the many [[list of cross-generational references|references]] to [[Generation II]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, as well as data for Pokémon that were caught in "Johto".

Forenzo18: /* PokéGear Version 2 */

[[Image:PokeGear.png|thumb|150px|right|PokéGear artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]]]]
'''Pokémon Gear''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンギア''' ''Pokémon Gear''), or more commonly just '''PokéGear''' (Japanese: '''ポケギア''' ''PokéGear''), is an important [[item]] for {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. It looks like a large, advanced, wristwatch, with a symbol resembling an S or a backwards 2 (perhaps the [[Silph Co.]] logo) at the top. It was first introduced in [[Generation II]]; the [[Generation III]] analog to the PokéGear appears to be the [[PokéNav]], while the [[Generation IV]] counterpart is the [[Pokétch]].

==Functions==
The main character of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} receives a PokéGear from their mother at the start of their journey. It has several functions, some of which will need to be unlocked during the game by receiving special expansion cards.

[[Image:PokéGearTime.png|thumb|right|The time function.]]
===Time===
The PokéGear displays the day of the week and the time of day, entered at the beginning of the game.

A glitch in Pokémon Gold and Sliver occurred in which if the functions were scrolled through, the day will instantly change. It was fixed in Pokémon Crystal.

[[Image:PokéGearMap.png|thumb|left|Viewing the [[Johto Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] in the map function.]]

===Map===
The PokéGear displays a map of [[Johto]] and later [[Kanto]].

A Map Card is required for this function; this is obtained from the guide in [[Cherrygrove City]].

[[Image:PokéGearPhone.png|thumb|right|The phone function.]]
===Phone===
The PokéGear will function like a cellphone, allowing the user to make calls to people that they've traded phone numbers with. This allows the player to talk to other characters and learn informaton from them, such as battling tips or when rare Pokémon appear. Up to ten people can be saved onto the phone.

[[Image:PokéGearRadio.png|thumb|left|The radio function.]]

===Radio===
The PokéGear functions as a radio. This allows the player to get tips from [[Professor Oak]] and [[DJ Mary]] on Oak's Pokémon Talk, affect how active wild Pokémon are by playing Pokémon March or Pokémon Lullaby on the Pokémon Music station, or listen to the Lucky Channel to keep track of the [[Johto Radio Tower]]'s lottery promotion.

|}
A Radio Card is required for this function; this is obtained from a quiz host at the [[Johto Radio Tower]].

An EXPN Card gives the radio the ability to tune into certain stations in [[Kanto]]; this is obtained from someone at the [[Kanto Radio Tower]] after restoring the power to Kanto.

==PokéGear Version 2==
[[Image:0248.png|356x192px|left|thumb|PokéGear Version 2 in silver, displaying the Digital Clock app.]]
A newer version of the PokéGear is used in [[Pokémon Heart Gold]] and [[Pokémon Soul Silver]]. It features most of the [[Pokétch]] apps and additional apps such as phone, radio, and even an app that allows DSi owners to take photos of themselves and add images of Pokémon and such. The PokéGear version 2 does look quite similar to the original, and is available in Gold and Silver, (depending on whether the player owns Heart Gold or Soul Silver, respectively.)

==Anime==
[[Image:PokeGear anime.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Misty's PokéGear]]
Many characters in the anime own PokéGears:
*{{mov|Lisa}} lent hers to Ash so that he could keep in contact with Professor Oak in ''[[Spell of the Unown]]''.
*{{Jo|Jimmy}}, {{Jo|Marina}} and [[Vincent]] all own PokéGears. A plot point of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' is that it includes a tracking system to show where the other PokéGear currently is.
*[[Misty]] also owns one, so that she can keep in contact with {{an|Daisy}} at the Cerulean Gym.

==TCG==
The {{TCG ID|Neo Genesis|PokéGear|88}} appears as a card in the {{TCG|Neo Genesis}} set.

'''Pokémon HeartGold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターハートゴールド''' ''Pocket Monsters Heartgold'') and '''Pokémon SoulSilver Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターソウルシルバー''' ''Pocket Monsters Soulsilver'') are paired [[Generation IV]] remakes of the [[Generation II]] games {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.

Much like {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} revisited the [[Generation I]] story of [[Kanto]], HeartGold and SoulSilver will revisit the story of [[Johto]], with the player's starting area being [[New Bark Town]]. Currently it is not known whether the remakes will retain the ability to visit Kanto after defeating the [[Elite Four]] that was present in the originals.

Like FireRed and LeafGreen, several enhancements will be made to the games to bring them up to speed with Generation IV, including adding features and Pokémon introduced in Generations {{gen|III}} and IV, and possibly including some plot tweaks to do so. It has also been confirmed that brand new features, never before seen in the series, will be introduced.

Like the [[Pokétch]] in [[Pokémon_Diamond_and_Pearl_Versions|Diamond, Pearl & Platinum]], the [[PokéGear]] will occupy the touch-screen of the Nintendo DS when not in battle. It will feature most of the same apps as the Pokétch, and will include additional features such as phone and radio stations.

==Trivia==
* These games will mark the 10th anniversary since the release of the original Gold and Silver Versions for Game Boy Color.
* The remakes were long [[Pokémon Gold and Silver remake speculation|speculated]] in light of the many [[list of cross-generational references|references]] to [[Generation II]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, as well as data for Pokémon that were caught in "Johto".

'''Pokémon Gear''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンギア''' ''Pokémon Gear''), or more commonly just '''PokéGear''' (Japanese: '''ポケギア''' ''PokéGear''), is an important [[item]] for {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. It looks like a large, advanced, wristwatch, with a symbol resembling an S or a backwards 2 (perhaps the [[Silph Co.]] logo) at the top. It was first introduced in [[Generation II]]; the [[Generation III]] analog to the PokéGear appears to be the [[PokéNav]], while the [[Generation IV]] counterpart is the [[Pokétch]].

==Functions==
The main character of {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} receives a PokéGear from their mother at the start of their journey. It has several functions, some of which will need to be unlocked during the game by receiving special expansion cards.

[[Image:PokéGearTime.png|thumb|right|The time function.]]
===Time===
The PokéGear displays the day of the week and the time of day, entered at the beginning of the game.

A glitch in Pokémon Gold and Sliver occurred in which if the functions were scrolled through, the day will instantly change. It was fixed in Pokémon Crystal.

[[Image:PokéGearMap.png|thumb|left|Viewing the [[Johto Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] in the map function.]]

===Map===
The PokéGear displays a map of [[Johto]] and later [[Kanto]].

A Map Card is required for this function; this is obtained from the guide in [[Cherrygrove City]].

[[Image:PokéGearPhone.png|thumb|right|The phone function.]]
===Phone===
The PokéGear will function like a cellphone, allowing the user to make calls to people that they've traded phone numbers with. This allows the player to talk to other characters and learn informaton from them, such as battling tips or when rare Pokémon appear. Up to ten people can be saved onto the phone.

[[Image:PokéGearRadio.png|thumb|left|The radio function.]]

===Radio===
The PokéGear functions as a radio. This allows the player to get tips from [[Professor Oak]] and [[DJ Mary]] on Oak's Pokémon Talk, affect how active wild Pokémon are by playing Pokémon March or Pokémon Lullaby on the Pokémon Music station, or listen to the Lucky Channel to keep track of the [[Johto Radio Tower]]'s lottery promotion.

|}
A Radio Card is required for this function; this is obtained from a quiz host at the [[Johto Radio Tower]].

An EXPN Card gives the radio the ability to tune into certain stations in [[Kanto]]; this is obtained from someone at the [[Kanto Radio Tower]] after restoring the power to Kanto.

==PokéGear Version 2==
[[Image:0248.PNG|356x192px|right|thumb|PokéGear Version 2 in silver, displaying the Digital Clock app.]]
A newer version of the PokéGear is used in [[Pokémon Heart Gold]] and [[Pokémon Soul Silver]]. It features most of the [[Pokétch]] apps and additional apps such as phone, radio, and even an app that allows DSi owners to take photos of themselves and add images of Pokémon and such. The PokéGear version 2 does look quite similar to the original, and is available in Gold and Silver, (depending on whether the player owns Heart Gold or Soul Silver, respectively.)

==Anime==
[[Image:PokeGear anime.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Misty's PokéGear]]
Many characters in the anime own PokéGears:
*{{mov|Lisa}} lent hers to Ash so that he could keep in contact with Professor Oak in ''[[Spell of the Unown]]''.
*{{Jo|Jimmy}}, {{Jo|Marina}} and [[Vincent]] all own PokéGears. A plot point of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' is that it includes a tracking system to show where the other PokéGear currently is.
*[[Misty]] also owns one, so that she can keep in contact with {{an|Daisy}} at the Cerulean Gym.

==TCG==
The {{TCG ID|Neo Genesis|PokéGear|88}} appears as a card in the {{TCG|Neo Genesis}} set.
