This autumn, the Japanese market will see the re-releases of Gold and Silver, in prepped up versions called HeartGold and SoulSilver. The most interesting thing, for a parent at least, is the gadget bundled with the games: a pedometer!

The Pokeped can carry one Pokémon at a time, and as the owner walks around, the Pokémon will level up. Later, it can be transferred back to the game. Pretty neat, I expect these will sell big in the US! ;)
