*Spoilers for people who want to know what it's about*
Okay this is just another journey to become a pokemon master but there are quite a few new changes that have shaken the whole of Japan; this time around we use two new trainers (a girl or boy) and we have to capture under 400 pokemon yes that's right under 400, like about 386 or so by some accounts.
The new battleling system that some may have heard about has some up sides, it allows a 2 on 2 pokemon battle where two trainers can battle side by side against another two trainers almost like in Gold +Silver when Lance helped you battle against Team Rocket at the lake-side base.
In this new adventure you cannot link up the games to the old GBC versions, but to insure that you can get all the pokemon all of them will be either accessible in one or both of the new games.
Fourthly Team Rocket is no more, they have been replaced by team Magma (I think that's right) and Team Aqua. Team Magma are the enemys that you will have to face in Pokemon Ruby, and Team Aqua will be in Pokemon Sapphire.
There will of course be 3 new starter Pokemon each one being either a fire, grass, or water type with 3 different routes of evolvement.
This Pokemon journey does not traverse Johto or Kanto (I still don't know for sure).
