Will They Ever Re-Make Pokemon Silver and Gold?

I would love gold / silver remake

 

See, I don't think it will ever happen because one of two things will happen since all of these games are so similar:

1. It will be a pure remake with Diamon/Pearl graphics.  It won't get any new features such as online so it will automatically just fail because it's so similar to D/P but it missing so many key features.
2. It will get a graphical upgrade and get online features to D/P.  It will get pluses for having that online but it will still be missing things like dual battles and items.  Again, it will just be so bad compared to the other game.

With remakes on things like Final Fantasy at least those games have story to fall back on, Pokemon only has Pokemon with different names, a main character with a different name, and a villain with a different name to fall back on.  Everything else (even the story) is exactly the same.

Well then why did they remake Red, and Green/Blue? Also why couldn't they add the new pokemon, and areas like they did in Fire Red and Leaf Green. I can't remember too well, but weren't there also dual battles in fire red and leaf green?
