As plot goes, T3 will be set during the year 2001, and will cover the first battles between the rogue AI Skynet and the humans it seeks to destroy.

A special version of Game Boy Color, inspired by Pokémon, is going to be released c. October 25, 1999, bundled with Pokémon: Yellow Version (a.k.a. Pikachu Edition). This version is very similar to the Red and Blue versions of Pokémon, but revolves more around the television series.

Instead of choosing from Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbausar in the beginning of the game, you get to pick Pikachu. Pikachu does not go in his Pokéball; instead, he follows your character around on the screen.

This game will also feature Jesse and James of Team Rocket, with their appropriate Pokémon (Ekans / Koffing and later Arbok / Weezing.) All of the Pokémon icons have been redone, and the game colorized for the Game Boy Color system. Compatibility issues, such as whether or not you can trade with the Red/Blue versions of Pokémon, is not yet known.
