About Pokémon Gold and Silver
Pokémon Gold and Silver released in November 1999 in Japan (October 2000 in North America) for Game Boy Color, introducing the Johto region and 100 new Pokémon. The Johto Pokédex spans 251 species, the newcomers mixed in with the original Kanto roster, and Kanto itself opens up as a second region after the Elite Four. Gen 2 starters Chikorita, Cyndaquil and Totodile join box legendaries Ho-Oh (Gold) and Lugia (Silver), alongside a day/night clock, breeding, held items and the new Dark and Steel types. Browse the full Johto-Kanto roster below in any of nine languages.
