Do you think that they'll remake Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire?

If you think about it, Red and Blue(Green) were remade in the third generation of Pokemon, and then it was Gold and Silver to be remade in the fourth generation. Do you believe that they'll remake Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire in the fifth generation of Pokemon? Do you think they should?

Edit: Also, if you don't think they should, would you think that it'd be more fun to have it as an attachment after you beat the main adventure?

I hope they remake Pokemon Ruby in the fifth generation of Pokemon. Pokemon Ruby is in the land where you can get Growlithe, which evolves into Arcanine (I think its that place at least).

Growlithe and Arcanine are Generation 1 Pokemon. You can get them in the first games (I believe).

As for whether or not they'll remake them? Probably. With the number of remakes Nintendo's doing right now (VC, Ocarina of Time 3DS, Super Mario 64 DS, Heart Gold, Soul Silver, heck. They even remade New Super Mario Bros. for the Wii.), I doubt they won't.

I doubt it, the original Gameboy Pokemon games are classic that were just limited by technology, making a jump as small as GBA to DS for a remake would be rather pointless.

Growlithe is from the original generation, you can catch them in every game.

Well, then here's another question? Do you think that they should add it to the 5th Generation game, and boost the count of badges to 16?

Still no, the 3rd Generation is still advanced enough to play as it is and doesn't have nearly as much nostalgia attached to it as the original Gameboy classics.

And 8 badges is already plenty for the main storyline, Gold and Silver only had an extra 8 as part of the endgame.

You can catch them in every game? That's a relief. They're quite good pokemon (especially when they evolve into Arcanine, unless you speed up the process by using a Fire Stone (I think that's what it's called)), and I like them a lot, and I'm really happy if I have Arcanine on my team.

They've had Growlithe since the beginning, Aed. However, I think he's game-specific, as in he's in a certain game. For example, he's only in FireRed, but not LeafGreen.

Im pretty such the 3rd gen pokedex, at least before teh national pokedex, doesn't have Growlithe.

Really? I feel that the extra 8 badges gave the game a bit more of a purpose after beating the Elite Four.....You could maybe even vs. the champion of Hoenn afterwards?

It's a kind of weird addition, though....In the 2nd Generation, Gym Leaders in Kanto had Pokemon that were Level 50+! That's even higher than the Elite Four Pokemon! If you start out in Kanto, doesn't that defeat the purpose of going to the Elite Four? Of course, this is just a minor nitpick, seeing as you play the Kanto region AFTER beating the Elite Four.

Good luck trying to get a Firestone though.

They aren't that difficult to get, are they?

Pretty sure they weren't in Ruby and Sapphire.

I thought they did...there are some locations: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Evolutionary_stone for Ruby, Emerald, and Sapphire.

well if gamefreak did it (remade) with red,blue and green and gold and silver they might make a remake of ruby and sapphire in about 2 years i think.....but.....wasn't emerald that anyways????? (same as those two but with added stuff)

More than likely. Nintendo aren't afraid of milking a few million dollars from the people willing to buy them again.

Growlithe: not catchable in Ruby/Sapphire, however he can be traded to the games from another game

Stones: Firestones, Thunderstones, etc. are available in Ruby/Sapphire by the house on the water near Lilycove (I believe anyway), however, you can't buy them. You need to exchange certain items to get them (I forget what they are, but it's a lot harder than buying them).

We'll see Ruby and Sapphire remakes shortly. Personally, I'd prefer they remake the original red and blue versions once again (they are originals and my favorites), though I see this unlikely.

I think you need the coloured shards to get the stones.
A remake would be cool, but in my opinion, it doesn't need to be remade.

Yeah, it was the color5ed shards, you are correct.

I agree. A Ruby/Sapphire remake would be interesting, but it's not highly prized on my list. It was my least favorite generation and I'm sure many will agree with me on this. Nonetheless, although it was the worst IMO, it had some of the greatest upsides.

Personally, I think I'm getting tired of Pokemon. Gold/Silver was my favorite one of them all, and when they remade them I was all ASFASFASASDGSDAG. Yet, when I bought it, I played through it, and kinda got bored and quit while in Kanto. I didn't even finish it, which kinda made me sad. Too much of the same thing, I think. Now, if there was some way they could add a twist, such as, oh, I dunno, letting you join !Team Rocket! or something, I would probably get into it again.

For the record, you did get to wear a Team Rocket suit in the game.

Which was absolutely amazing. Then they made you take it off T_T
