Should G/S/C be able to trade with R/S/E/LG/FR

Do you think that the game developers should have been able to make it possible for G/S/C to trade with R/S/E, as it would allow you to trade pokemon from any game to another, like R/B/Y to G/S/C if you traded through enough games? And how far do you think they should have gone? For instance, should you have only been able to from G/S/C to R/S/E or should it have been two way? If it were two way do you think they should have spent the extra time to put blocks on moves and Pokemon only in the third generation from going to the second?

Personally, I think it would have been great for them to implement this. I think it should have been two-way, but there would have been no need to put blocks, as its not that complicated, and if your unsure, just don't do it.

It certainly would have been a great idea to implement that although by the same token, there was kind of a large gap between the release of Crystal the release of Ruby/Sapphire in America, and an even bigger gap between Crystal and Fire Red/Leaf Green. (I use Crystal as the example since it was the last game released in Johto series).

They are, in my opinion, setting up a good change now with Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald/Fire Red/Leaf Green being able to trade with Diamond and Pearl which I assume will be able to trade with the next generation of systems and so forth.

I definitely agree with you that they sort of missed the boat with not being able to trade from the first and second generations to the third.

GSC were on a far different system from RSE and beyond. Now, if they made a remake of Gold and Silver, well...We'd all be happy.

This is a hard question, but whenever someone talks about something remote to a G/S/C remake, mainly for trading, they fall back on the GameCube games. But little do they know that not everyone who plays the main Pokemon games has access to Colosseum or XD... so yes. G/S/C should be able to trade with the others, mainly for the starters and Johto Legendaries.

I think Gold, Silver and Crystal should be able to trade with Fire Red and Leaf Green. Because I want an Espeon in my Fire Red
