* All 493 Pokémon are capable of [[walking Pokémon|following players]] similar to [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Pikachu]] in {{v2|Yellow}}. [[Shiny Pokémon|Shininess]] is also retained. The player can interact with their Pokémon by pressing 'A', and can see how their Pokémon is feeling at the moment. In battle, like Yellow's Pikachu, they are sent out from the side of the screen, rather than from a Poké Ball, unless in certain situations, such as while riding the [[bicycle]], surfing, or going indoors with a large Pokémon. | * All 493 Pokémon are capable of [[walking Pokémon|following players]] similar to [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Pikachu]] in {{v2|Yellow}}.

* The [[Kimono Girl]]s from the [[Ecruteak City]] Dance Theatre now have a significant role in the game. The player can meet each one at certain points in the [[Johto]] journey, where they will ask the player to do them a small favor. Before meeting the version mascot, they each challenge the player with a battle and once defeated, they proceed to summon Ho-Oh (in HeartGold) and Lugia (in SoulSilver) at the [[Bell Tower]] and [[Whirl Islands]], respectively. In the originals, they were only found in the Dance Theater and were treated as any other trainer to earn {{HM|03|Surf}} from a man in the Theater once all five are defeated. For HG/SS, a Team Rocket member inside the Theater needs to be fought instead to earn the HM. | * The [[Kimono Girl]]s from the [[Ecruteak City]] Dance Theatre now have a significant role in the game.
