Pre Heart-Gold and Soul-Silver evidence

For many months before Pokemon Heartgold and Soulsilver were announced, pokesav users found that they could generate codes for pokemon that  seemed to originate from 'Johto' on Pokemon Diamond and Pearl.

Until now I found this strange and personally I recieved a hacked celebi from the GTS which's location was 'Johto' The original location has also revealed future games before they were released not to my knowledge such as 'Lovely place' being the location of the surfing pikachu on pokemon battle revolution. I believed the 'Johto' location was just a placeholder like 'Distant Land' or 'Mystery Zone.'

But I am now more curious, are there any more strange area locations or other elements in pokemon diamond/pearl/platinum which could reveal any future games?

The ruby/sapphire one is a very good composition.

That's nothing new. I knew about this, or at least the unused RS track. There are other GSC music tracks in the RS rom too.

I knew there was more GS music in the ROM, but I haven't had a chance to hear it.  Any other uploads, please?  :)

I disagree. It's lacking in something.

The Bulbapedia article was interesting - good link, Zowayix. However, some of the "hints" were lame. The gold/silver pokeball motif in the Pokemon Center and Pal Park probably have nothing to do with the remakes. But what amuses me to no end is that all the G/S/C hacks that have been made over the years are now (more) obsolete.

The Bulbapedia article should be taken with a grain of salt. A lot of Bulbapedians, especially some of the higher ups (the editor in chief, in fact, who was quite vocal about it on his user page) were actively hoping for HG/SS. So, naturally, they'd grasp at anything to "prove" their assertion. It's like those crazy shippers looking for any evidence, however remote, to support the assertion that Ash and his Pokédex are in a relationship.

Actually, most of the fandom was looking forward to HG/SS. However I think Bulbapedia, being one of the major information resources in the fandom, at least helped spark the interest in a remake.

Edit: The G/S/C tracks in R/S are probably test tracks. There's R/S music in D/P/Pt too (ask Tombstoner about it), does this mean we should look forward to an R/S remake? Here's looking towards ReallyGettingOldNowRuby and SeriouslyOverdoingItSapphire!

I doubt they will, actually. Game Freak made FR/LG so we had a way to catch Pokemon that weren't in R/S/E/the Gamecube games, and HG/SS simply because the fandom demanded it. However, they have no reason to remake RSE.

I think you underestimate the appeal of making a quick buck.

Likewise, they've been overdoing it with this kind of shit for at least a decade now. I swear at this rate its only a matter of time before Pokemon ends up with a reputation like the Sonic Franchise.

So in other words, they'll continue to develop perfectly fine games but the "fan"base will whine about them anyway?

There are many trolls out there. It is very much possible.
