About the Game

Originally launched for the Game Boy Color in 2001, Pokémon Gold expanded the Pokémon universe beyond Kanto into the Johto region, introducing over 100 new Pokémon, new evolutions, and the revolutionary real-time day-night cycle. For many players, this release marked the moment when Pokémon truly became one of the top video games of all time.

This version introduced fan-favourite features like:

• The PokéGear, combining map, radio, and phone functions.

• New Dark and Steel-type Pokémon, deepening strategy.

• Full compatibility with Pokémon Silver and the ability to trade with earlier titles via link cable.

Even today, Pokémon Gold remains one of the best Nintendo games ever made — a nostalgic reminder of the franchise’s golden age that helped shape generations of players.
