Pokemon Gold and Silver Fan Has Great Idea for a Remake
Some fans are still awaiting a modern remake of Pokemon Gold and Silver, and one fan has now created a concept for what it might look like. Interestingly, it goes in a different direction than many of the modern Pokemon games, but it's generating a lot of praise because of that.

Pokemon fan RoteBlaubeere shared their idea of what that remake might look like, demonstrating an intriguing 2.5D artstyle for the title.
