Pokémon HeartGold and Pokémon SoulSilver are Generation IV's remakes of the original Generation II games, Pokémon Gold and Silver. Nintendo released Pokémon HeartGold and Pokémon SoulSilver versions in Japan on September 12, 2009. The games were released in March 14, 2010 for North America and March 26, 2010 in Europe.

These remakes incorporate the many advancements that the series has undergone since Generation II, much like how FireRed and LeafGreen changed from Red and Blue.

  • The Poké Walker can connect to HeartGold and SoulSilver cartridges via infared signals and can "hold" one Pokémon that you then carry around with you.
  • A Pokémon being carried around in this manner will recieve experience points and closeness, as well as the player gaining "watts", an in-game currency that can be used to find and catch wild Pokémon, search for items, and unlock new locations within the Poké Walker.
  • Up to three Pokémon can be captured and stored on the Pokewalker, but will only appear on the inventory screen.
  • You will also be able to receive items through other Poké Walker devices using infared.
  • The Poké Walker is similiar to the Pokémon Pikachu 2 pedometer/virtual pet in its use of Watts as currency to trade for items.

  • When you have the event Pikachu Colored Pichu , go to the Shrine in Ilex Forest and then you will have chance to get the Notched Eared Pichu (or for the US and Europe Spiky Eared Pichu). The Pichu is given to you, so you don't have to waste Poké Balls.
