HG/SS Details: Pokemon that Follow, Boxes, Jirachi Event, Box Arts
CoroCoro information continues to come out, and the HeartGold / SoulSilver duo becomes more appealing every day. As of now, this is what else has been found:
All Pokemon Can Follow
Earlier it had been learned that starters will frequently follow a throughout the game. Now it has been learned that in fact all 493 Pokemon, from Bulbasaur to Arceus, will be able to follow you around on your travels. It has also been learned that you will be able to see how they are feeling, although is unknown if through text-boxes or images (Amity Square-style or Pikachu-style), and will be able to get items they have picked up.
Jirachi Event
CoroCoro has confirmed that a special level 5 Jirachi is to be given away in DS Download Stations and NintendoZone areas in Japan, as a Wifi event, but it is not yet confirmed if it is a general Wifi event available worldwide or rather just one exclusive to Japan. It knows the following moves: Wish, Rest, Confusion, and Draco Meteor, a move specific to legendary Pokemon. It holds Liechi berry when you get it. It also unlocks a new area in HG/SS when traded over, thouugh area is not current known. It will be available from June 19th to July 17th.
Box Art
The two box arts for Heart Gold / Soul Silver have been made public. When looking at these, the depth of the boxes in noticeable as the pokéwalk is also packaged. See them below:
Other Unconfirmed Information
Other information that at the moment is hard to confirm is that the game will be more touch-screen reliant and that it will feature an area west of the Nation Park, possibly, although doubtfully, a Battle Frontier.

ZamFights Beta should come around Christmas, now.
Spoiler Alert:ZamFights Progress
Summary
ZamFights, a Pokemon Mass Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, developed by Pokezam's Webmaster Freezewarp, continues its development into Alpha 7, where you can trade Pokemon with a global trade station like feature and battle other trainers. Several bugs were also fixed.
Alpha 9, now in development, will feature numerous events and locations to go to, that is up to Fuschia. It will also feature the new, interactive map, numerous minor features, and an altered look.
Alpha 9 should come around Thanksgiving, and Alpha 10, or the public Beta, should come around Christmas.
Alpha 8 Preview
I actually like the idea of a sixth generation Pokemon Emerald remix; few people think of the possibilities that one game has in full, colorful, barely pixaleted 3-D (in other words, think of a Play Station 2 or Xbox Original). The existing 3D we have with the DS is good, but the next generation of handheld consoles should give much more detail to the game - imagine being able to change your perspective to look into the sky while the stormcloud is slowly stretching across the region once Kyogre and Groudon have both been awoken. Imagine seeing the sky tower, and a green tail, to the left, and mirages to the right. For that matter, think of Mirage Island!
There are so many other moments for which we could experience in perspective-3D Pokemon Emerald; the battle frontier is one example, but just seeing the sun rise and set as the time passes in Dewford city would be awesome. Of course, my dreams may be more than one generation away; are there any Wii games that even would make this real?
Amazing news FreezeWarp!
I am really excited about those games, and I also hope everyone is able to obtain that Jirachi, and not just the Japanese.
And also thanks for mentioning me here xD
Same here. I will definitely be getting this game. I have been waiting for the remake of the Johto Region games for a while now. I wonder if they'll do the Crystal remake though. :P
I'll stop there. Don't want everyone to think so much on it.
