Product Description
Pokémon Gold and Silver utilize the general design blueprint supplied in Red/Blue/Golden-haired — Boy wanders the land to become the greatest Pokémon trainer in the world, with an archrival out to take your glory every step of the way. Both versions are identical in every way, except for the character images during battles, and the characters that can be caught in the wild, keeping with the “trading is necessary” design. The game has the familiar Japanese-stylishness RPG engine, meaning top-down scrolling provides the perspective, and huge-headed people inhabit the world. The hook in Pokémon is the fact that you yourself don’t do your own fighting — instead, creatures you capture in the wild supply the brute force of your battle skills. The creatures are Pokémon, and in Pokémon Gold and Silver there are exactly 251different species of these animals hiding in the game, waiting to be caught and trained.

Featuring a new adventure that’s filled with copious enhancements and innovations, this long-awaited sequel to Pokémon Red, Blue, and Golden-haired greatly improves upon the series’ winning formula, and makes for an even more insanely addictive and wholly absorbing gaming experience.

Like Pokémon Gold–which essentially is the same tale, with minor gameplay variations–Pokémon Silver casts players in the familiar role of a young Pokémon Trainer who’s out to collect as many different kinds of Pokémon as possible. As in previous sports meeting, gameplay consists mostly of exploration (completing various quests in the process) and Pokémon battles, which use a unique battle system that’s like a complex twist on rock-paper-scissors.

But, despite the similarities, it’s quite obvious that Pokémon Silver is a whole new ball game from the start. The game is played out in real time, with the contemporary time and day of the week (recorded by an internal timer) having a direct impact on gameplay elements, such as what Pokémon you’ll find in the wild, and when certain events occur and characters appear.

While there are too many new and improved features in Pokémon Silver to list here, among the highlights are 100 new Pokémon (including two new types), new evolution processes (including breeding), and a more streamlined game interface that has better-organized menus and button shortcuts.

Although it’s simpler to progress in Pokémon Silver than in the previous sports meeting, the sheer amount of fun and game time that’s involved is disheartening. You’d be hard-pressed to find a better regard than this one. –Joe Hon
