I don't think Sun Gold and Moon Silver are plausible at all - what does Ho-oh have to do with the sun, or Lugia with the moon? The "Fire" and "Leaf" in the previous remakes' titles referred to the specific mascot Pokémon, and while that doesn't necessarily men that the same convention will be held to with these games, there's zero connection between the sun and moon and anything that exists within those two games. (Yeah yeah, they were the first to feature a daily cycle - but why would they choose to reference that little bit of trivia in the titles rather than something to do with the games' actual Pokémon or plot?)

I really don't think that the fact that they had a daily cycle would be considered a little bit of trivia. It's honestly a major part of the game. The Eevee evolutions were tied strongly to the time of the day, and like Rai said in the previous post, there are quite a few connections.

There is also the Moon Dance? Or whatever it's called. The Day/Night aspect of the game are important ones, and I can see why they'd choose them.

Personally though, I'm hoping for Dawn and Dusk.

Thank you, War Raichu(though I'd go with Golden Sun and Silver Moon myself)!

Here's a revised version of some of my previous suggestions(revisions in bold):

I would turn Cerulean Cave---remember that place from the color games and FRLG?---into a hotbed for pokemon:
-----Both: Geodude/Graveller, Onix, Cubone line, Rhyhorn/Rhydon, Kangaskhan, Aerodactyl, Mewtwo(L70 soft-resettable one-shot), Yanma, Corsola, Larvitar line, Nosepass(post-Nat-dex), Feebas(post-Nat-dex), Relicanth(post-Nat-dex), Aron line(post-Nat-dex), Gible line(post-Nat-dex)
-----Gold: Kabuto line, Gligar, Teddiursa line, Solrock(post-Nat-dex), Anorith line(post-Nat-dex), Bagon line(post-Nat-dex), Cranidos line(post-Nat-dex), Bronzor line(post-Nat-dex)
-----Silver: Omanyte line, Phanpy line, Skarmory, Lunatone(post-Nat-dex), Lileep line(post-Nat-dex), Baltoy line(post-Nat-dex), Beldum line(post-Nat-dex), Shieldon line(post-Nat-dex), Skorupi line(post-Nat-dex)

I've also come up with some once-a-day Move Tutors:
-----Ilex Forest(man from GSC who gave you the TM for Headbutt, but here he would give you the one for Flash instead): Dive, Headbutt, Softboiled, Sweet Scent, Teleport, Whirlpool.
-----Goldenrod City(man from Crystal who taught your pokemon any of Flamethrower, Ice Beam or Thunderbolt for cash): Air Slash, Fire Punch, Ice Punch, Power Gem, Signal Beam, Thunder Punch, Tri Attack.
-----Saffron City(man from RBY/GSC/FRLG who gives you Psychic): Aura Sphere, Bug Buzz, Earth Power, Hyper Voice, Petal Dance.
-----Silence Bridge(man from GSC who traded an Aerodactyl for your Chansey): Blast Burn, Draco Meteor, Frenzy Plant, Head Smash, Hydro Cannon, Last Resort, Leaf Storm, Psycho Boost, Rock Wrecker, Selfdestruct, Sky Attack.

More to come, when I can find the time.

Also, my latest reccommendation for version-exclusives:
-----Gold: Sandshrew line, Mankey line, Growlithe, Staryu, Kabuto line, Spinarak line, Misdreavus, Gligar, Teddiursa line, Mantine, Solrock(post-Nat-dex), Anorith line(post-Nat-dex), Bagon line(post-Nat-dex), Latios(post-Nat-dex), Deoxys(post-Nat-dex), Cranidos line(post-Nat-dex), Bronzor line(post-Nat-dex), Stunky line(post-Nat-dex), Chatot(post-Nat-dex), Riolu(post-Nat-dex).
-----Silver: Ekans line, Vulpix, Meowth line, Shellder, Omanyte line, Ledyba line, Murkrow, Delibird, Phanpy line, Skarmory, Lunatone(post-Nat-dex), Lileep line(post-Nat-dex), Baltoy line(post-Nat-dex), Beldum line(post-Nat-dex), Latias(post-Nat-dex), Jirachi(post-Nat-dex), Buneary(post-Nat-dex), Shieldon line(post-Nat-dex), Glameow line(post-Nat-dex), Skorupi line(post-Nat-dex).

Good, bad, or...?

I really don't think they'd ever allow you to catch a Fossil line... Unless they have, which I really didn't think they had.

"Golden Sun" is even less likely than "Sun Gold", because there's already in existence a still fairly popular GBA RPG named Golden Sun.

And yeah, that picture's fake. I could partly tell from Lugia's pose - all the official art of it for a long time has been much more streamlined nd dynamic, and the most recent depictions I've seen usually show it looping in the air. (Ho-oh's pose would be more dynamic on actual box art too, but the Lugia here is more noticeably static.) And then there's the fact that the version names are conveniently just blurry enough to not be able to make them out.

Personally I prefer
Silver Ocean; Gold/en Sky.
It makes MUCH more sense in terms of Lugia and Ho-oh. :D

EEK i can't wait. After my AP US Hist exam this news will be waiting <3

I agree there, I don't think they'd go with Golden Sun.

I still think SunGold is plausible.
Though, I think they'd do something like SkyGold moreso than SunGold, if they weren't going with DuskGold.

Snorlaxes are the best! Id like them to place one in johto instead of kanto. maybe blocking the way instead of sudowoodo. but i doubt that would happen.

Well it would be nice and we could put Sudowoodo on the way to lake of Rage.

Snorlax and Sudowoodo will stay where they are originally.

Hope you can get more apercorns by watering them and new calories
Well, I do also hope that you can get more than a single piece of apricorn. It was pretty lame in the original games that you have to wait for a day just to obtain another piece.

And when you said "calories", do you mean "colors"? There is a possibility that they might include a larger variation of apricorns.

I spell check it wrong. :banghead:

Moving on, a nature preserve thing were you can catch the other two starters.
