'''Pokémon HeartGold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター ハートゴールド''' ''Pocket Monsters HeartGold'') and '''Pokémon SoulSilver Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター ソウルシルバー''' ''Pocket Monsters SoulSilver'') are paired [[Generation IV]] [[remake]]s of the [[Generation II]] games {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.
'''Pokémon HeartGold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター ハートゴールド''' ''Pocket Monsters HeartGold'') and '''Pokémon SoulSilver Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター ソウルシルバー''' ''Pocket Monsters SoulSilver'') are paired [[Generation IV]] [[remake]]s of the [[Generation II]] games {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.


Much like {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} revisited the [[Generation I]] story of [[Kanto]], HeartGold and SoulSilver retell the story of [[Johto]], with the player's starting area being [[New Bark Town]]. While the games feature several expansions in key areas, the overall plot follows the same direction as the original {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}. Some aspects exclusive to {{v2|Crystal}} are also included. Like FireRed and LeafGreen could link up with {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} to complete the Pokédex by trading regionally exclusive Pokémon, HeartGold and SoulSilver can link up with {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} to obtain Pokémon unavailable in Johto and Kanto, such as [[Starters#Sinnoh|the Sinnoh starters]].

{{ga|Kris}}, despite being the female counterpart of {{ga|Ethan|Crystal's player character}}, is not included as the female player character, with a {{ga|Lyra|new character}} instead taking her place. Whether she is chosen to be the [[player character]] or not, this new character will still appear in the game. The unselected protagonist will take a pseudo-[[rival]] role similar to the unselected characters of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Ruby, Sapphire]], {{v2|Emerald}}, {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.
