'''Pokémon Gold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター {{tt|金|きん}}''' ''Pocket Monsters Gold'') and '''Pokémon Silver Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター {{tt|銀|ぎん}}''' ''Pocket Monsters Silver'') were the fifth and sixth [[Pokémon games]] to be released in Japan, on November 21, 1999. Like {{2v2|Red|Green}} before them, they are paired versions, with little difference aside from available Pokémon.

As Pokémon had become an international phenomenon already with the release of {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}} in North America and other regions, the translated versions of these games were greatly expected, and arrived Stateside on October 15, 2000. Again, much like Red and Green, Gold and Silver were followed by a third version with minor changes, {{game|Crystal}}, a year later.

Gold and Silver brought with them many changes to the Pokémon world, as the first "new" games. Unlike Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow, Gold and Silver take place in the [[Johto]] region, west of the region that the original games take place in, [[Kanto]]. Despite this, Kanto is visitable later in the game. The player begins his journey in [[New Bark Town]], which is fittingly known as "the Town Where Winds of a New Beginning Blow."
