      I also loved it. I hope they make an app or alteration to Go when they eventually remake Gen 5. Now that we all have smart phones to play it on it will be WAY more fun, functional, and engaging.

      @@wolfiemuse Browser cache files aren't usually kept during a reinstall. They're typically considered "disposable", since their main purpose is to save you from having to download a site again if it hasn't changed. They're also one of the first targets of programs trying to free up hard drive space when it gets low (which tend to refer to them as "Temporary Internet Files"). And reinstalling Windows usually includes a full format of the hard drive, so anything not explicitly backed up and preserved is gone.
      I played Dream World a bit back in the day, but even my data-hoarding self never kept cache files. Pity, it would be nice to have a fan version online, especially one that the games could be pointed to and communicate with (likely by setting a special DNS in the device's network settings). Black was the first game I played since Red, though I kinda fell out of the series again soon after.

    Gen 5 was the first generation I didn't get the chance to play until after its online stuff was already gone (though I just barely missed it!). I'd love to see the Dream World restored so I could experience it myself. Also a shame I don't have any computers that would have Flash games still in their browser cache, otherwise I'd absolutely do my part to restore whatever bits of things were in there!

    Dream World was freakin amazing. I remember playing it before I even got a gen 5 game. Fennel would let you use her Muna, you could only encounter gen 1-4 Pokemon, and you could only keep a limit of 10 Pokémon without a gen 5 game. I wish I could help with the restoration, but I don't think the computer I used to play it on works anymore. Hopeful if/when gen 5 gets remade they could have a version of Dream World baked into the game so it never gets lost again (wishful thinking, I know).

I actually have an old laptop from the time that launched, but getting it out and running is such a hassle and I'm not even sure if it can connect to the internet anymore. Maybe someday I'll open it up and see if I can send any flash cache over... after all, one man's cache is another man's treasure
