Here is a changes list from a Game FAQs guide
Changes Guide:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A list of the changes made in the game from the origional, including
Q's and A's about certain rumors going around
Q. How accurate is the remake?
A. Extremely accurate. All the trainers from the previous games have
returned, and have close to accurate teams from the first one. Although quite a bit has changed (New movesets, TM's, etc) the levels and type
of Pokemon remain unchanged. Even the locations are exact.
Q. What about the overworld? How is it different?
A. Completely remade in terms of graphics, and it goes farther beyond R/S. However, the actual layout is pretty much the same. Besides a few minor renevations for the better, everything is 98% accurate to the first
game.
Q. What HAS changed?
A. Here is a list (Athough it may be uncomplete) of the changes:
-At the beginning, when you give oak the Pokedex, he also gives
you 5 Pokeballs.
-Many of the Pokemon's location's have changed.
-Prof. Oak's assistant gives you the Running Shoes when trying to
leave Pewter City, to route 3.
-More Trainers in the routes and areas.
-Same TM set from R/S (Besides HM 07)
-With the new change, there are now move teachers that will teach your Pokemon certain moves that used to me TM's (And some new ones)
-The guards at the gates of the Safron enterance no longer require a drink from the machine in Celadon, but a new Pass that a old lady gives you in the place the Gamefreak designers are in (The biggest building in Celadon besides the Dept. Store), on the first floor.
-Items are now sorted by type, like all the other games above the first 3.
-Pokemon now can Hold items, and have Special Abilities, Like in R/S.
-Once you complete the Cinibar Gym, you will be taken to the 3 new islands of this game (Not in any relation with the Orange Islands in the Anime).
-A few new item additions, including a Tutoral, TM case, and so on.
-Two on Two battles
-Ability to use the Wireless adapter to communicate and battle/trade with others.
-Ability to Trade between Colosseum and R/S.
-Moltres is now located on the first island, instead of Victory road.
-9 New islands to explore, maybe more.
Q. Can you say what isn't in the game and may be, but not confirmed?
A. Yes:
-It is unknown at this time if you can catch Lugia and the Unknown, but
it is pointing to a "no", making them the only two Pokemon that are
uncatchable (Unless there is something that hasn't been found, or will
be in the E-Card Colosseum expansion).
**Update: It has been confirmed, at this time, that not only are
Unknown and Lugia are catchable, but Deoxys as well, making Mew the only uncatchable at this time.
-Time feature (Unknown how this effects Eevee and Umbreon and Espeon)
-Pokemon Contest
-The mytical land of Johto that was rumored to be in at one point.
-Dive HM (Although it is programmed in the game...)
-Breeding On island 4, there is a breeding center that you can breed
Pokemon at and get eggs from.
