I read it somewhere. I'm not sure when but since I'm really interested
in the idea, it has since been stuck in head. I believe it was in serebii.net
that I read it.

Well once i see it for my self I will believe it.
I like the whole planter for you berries. I never liked having to go back to get the ones I had previously planted.

I doubt the Pokemon has fainted in both situations. That's too big of a stretch. The people who post these scans...I REALLY doubt they're playing through the actual game.

LOL. We just missed it on the last page:

You can see it happen in one of PokeTerra's videos of the demo. His Totodile faints while battling a Stantler, and when the battle is over, Pikachu is suddenly following him instead of Totodile.

There was a video of the demo where the starter fainted and Pikachu took over as follower, so you're right

Holy hell, just wandered on over to the official site for the games, and it's almost completely filled out now. They put a LOT of new stuff on there, if you didn't know (which I'm assuming you did, but it did just come on there within the last 24 hours). It's nothing new or anything; just stuff about the Battle Frontier, Hoenn legendaries, Safari Zone, Apricorns... basically everything everyone's been talking about, except Mewtwo and Team Rocket.

I doubt Platinum's Battle Frontier is just a place holder. Like someone else said, why would they even show it when they could just say "coming soon", or just reveal it much later. I think it will just have the same buildings and basic layout. Think of it like an amusement park franchise. They all have the same rides, yet they're not exactly the same. I'm sure we'll have new Frontier Brains since Hg/Ss is supposed to happen around the same time as D/P/Pt. Heck, the interior of the different facilities could even be different from Platinum.

I noticed this before, but kept forgetting to ask. It looks as though you can have more than one Berry Planter. How do you get them, and how many can you have?

I already commented on the other things, so...

Ah, nice to see clear screens of stuff.

& even if it is the same BF as Platinum, and not a placeholder, it makes some sense. Someone who bought DP might not be inclined to buy Pt (even if it did have many differences). By putting in the Plat frontier, they give people who didn't buy it a chance to give it a go.
And this way they also can facilitate Pt & HGSS communications by taking advantage of teaming up with someone over Wi-Fi and going through the facilities.

The sense ruins some things in Pokémon. We want a fun game, not a senseful game. And having the same BF as Platinum is no fun at all.

I doubt Platinum's Battle Frontier is just a place holder. (...)

If so, please lend me a hand here:

Where is the sand shown in this SS?

Where does this SS happen?

And where would these three Tutors be in Plat Frontier?

It's fun for everyone else who didn't play it?
There's lot's of others things in the game to have fun with?

 

[Nick Alert]

Hey Yaminokame, could you translate the page about the berries?
http://www.pokemon.co.jp/special/hgss/introduction/device03.html
that stuff confuses me xDDD

 

[Mucrush]

The best argument so far. I've too noticed that and I couldn't realize where the heck those places were located in Platinum BF. That obsiously means that artwork is a placeholder.

Where is this in the Platinum BF art? :b

http://i30.*******.com/2dw7mzb.png

Not on the map, like the aguments.. but it IS there in Platinum :b

 

[Mucrush]

Thats BEFORE you enter the BF.

Yeah, and these is too :b

[Lishus13]

Where do these pictures take place in the game?

 

[Zalman]

And, although I'd need someone who can read Japanese to confirm,I'm willing to bet that the location pop-in thing says Battle Frontier.
Meaning in the BF.

Yup, it does, according to Bulbapedia (check the Japanese text, they look the same to me). Not sure though.

 

[9dragonbreed]

Does anyone know what is in kanto. Like a kanto map showing how it will be in HGSS. I would love to see everything upgraded. The gyms need to be upgraded like The johto ones.

 

[R_N]

Where do these pictures take place in the game?

Let' see, I believe the latter is the entrance to the path to the Safari Zone

The former seems to be the Berry Planter? No clue where that is but... maybe Safari Zone?

Oh snap that Meowth is on all fours : O

 

[The Red]

Yeah, and these is too :b

The entrance in that image matches the entrance to the Battle Frontier in Platinum. This is the entrance to the Battle Frontier in HG/SS, and it clearly doesn't match the one in the above image:

This image probably isn't in the BF since south of Olivine is nothing but sand and water:

As for this image:

When has one ever had the option to spend his/her battle points outside of the Battle Frontier?

 

[R_N]

This image probably isn't in the BF since south of Olivine is nothing but sand and water:

You can see a bit of sand at the very south end of the picture.
Also it would be to the west of Olivine, not south.

 

[DSDark]

This image probably isn't in the BF since south of Olivine is nothing but sand and water:

also they can make the inside of the Frontier look like whatever they want, as i we haven't gotten a picture of what the Battle Frontier will look like, that is if its not an exact copy of Platinum

 

[Lugion]

That's been confirmed for quite some time now. It's pretty obvious that they would both be in the same game as they were in the originals. The Box Pokemon will be the first one you can catch, then later in the game you'll be able to catch the other one at a higher level.

I won't go into specifics, as I know I don't remember everything about it. I'm sure if you rummage around the main site you'd find some useful information.


EDIT: My my.. I need to start typing less.

Of course it was virtually confirmed that you can catch both since they were announced... It's just that now, it's irrefutable.
