Nintendo social media post sparks Pokémon Gold and Silver rumors

Speculation regarding the return of Pokémon Gold and Silver has increased following a social media post by Nintendo of America. The post featured a screenshot from the open-world game Pookopia with the caption, “Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver, the other is gold.”

Fans have interpreted this as a potential hint toward a remake or port of the classic Johto-region titles for the Nintendo Switch 2. While some suggest the reference might simply point to a future expansion for Pookopia set in the Johto region, others hope for a full remake similar to previous titles like Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen. No official announcement has been made by Nintendo regarding the development of these specific games.
