These screenshots are from the episode of Pokemon Sunday that aired in Japan today.
The remakes have DPP-style graphics and, for at least a part of the game, it looks like your starter will follow you around. I would assume for the first task where you go to find Mr. Pokemon, although it could be for longer.
Also, it looks like we're finally getting updated Sugimori art of the Generation II Pokemon after they were skipped in FRLG. All three of the starters look adorable.

Also, be sure to check back tomorrow to find out what our new activity will be!
i dont really like the posibility that your starter may follow you arround, but i like the trainer design! GSC were the only games when you had a coice of 2 unique characters, not just Ash look-alikes, May, and Dawn. i just hope it is compatable with DPP...or celebi event shortly after, XD.
All I know is I wish they would give us some unexpected pokemon early in the game. I was disappointed in FR/LG when it was strictly kanto pokemon until the last few islands. I think itd be cool to see some random pokemon from other regions. And I agree, the kanto arc should be in the new games.
lol lemon yellow. :] idk i want them to make a crystal so i only need to get that for the 2 main legendaries. but yea more pokemon would be much better. how do you get "shiny gold"?
I would love the starter following you, although i bet if it evolves it will stop xD. I'm gonna go Chikorita when i get this, never really tried that before Lol
man dude i cant wait till this game comes out in the u.s so i can get all of them lengendaries baby woo. oh and i love the starter following you around ill chose chikorita prob
UrsaKazam, Missingno. was a glitch, not a pokemon. when a pokemon had no level, which created Missingno. (which essentially means Missing Number). so no, they will not be bringing Missingno. back. and i love the G/S/C generation, so i really look forward to the remake
The idea of your starter following you was cool in yellow, but I think that the starter shouldn't follow you around the entire game. in yellow, there was no way to evolve your pikachu (it refused to evolve) but you MUST be able to evolve your chicorita/cyndaquil/totodile... so therefore the starter will probably stop following you after you get pokeballs/ talk to professor pokemon.
totodile for me :P but cyndaquil is definitely a nice one too, but houndoom covers fire for me... hope houndoom is easy to obtain
yes thank you, i know it was a glitch. but nonetheless it was interesting to play around with and i doubt it would be esceedinly difficult to program into a game. either way, it's up to the game designers, not you or i.
I love the fact you're starter follows you about. I got really sad when they didn't re-vamp a version of yellow...
And I hope they either re-do all the gyms or none of them, instead three gyms that are all clumped together like they did in Platinum. That really annoyed me. And I hope do they put more pokemon in but keep the storyline. It would suck if they didn't.
