Forget Pokémon Black & White Remakes, There’s Another We Need First

Although Pokémon Black and White seem like prime candidates for the next remakes in the Pokémon franchise, there’s one classic game that could use the remake treatment first – Pokémon Emerald. Despite the fact that the series has essentially abandoned the idea of releasing third, more definitive versions of each generation’s games, replacing them with DLC expansions, there are still plenty of ideas from the original Pokémon Emerald on the Game Boy Advance that would get a better chance to shine in an all-new remake. And, while remakes of the third generation already exist in the form of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, another remake for Hoenn could take on a significantly different style.
