[edit] Starter Pokémon
As with the other main series Pokémon games, a new set of starter Pokémon were introduced for the fourth generation. Continuing with tradition, these Pokémon are a Water-type, Grass-type or a Fire-type. They include Piplup (Water), Turtwig (Grass) and Chimchar (Fire).
In the Gold and Silver remakes, Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the starter Pokémon will remain the same. They include Totodile (Water), Chikorita (Grass) and Cyndaquil (Fire).
[edit] Gym Leaders and the Elite Four
Generation IV introduced a new set of Gym Leaders and the Elite Four in the Diamond, Pearl and Platinum games. All of these trainers specialize in a specific type of Pokémon and are key to progressing through the game.
Presumably, the HeartGold and Soul Silver Gym Leaders, Elite Four and Champion will remain the same as their predecessors.
