I just read that red and blue merged to form silver and yellow is gold. I accidently picked the gold server not nowing and now I cand login to the silver server because it is saying my information is invalid

I haven't played in a few months and just re downloaded to the new client. I noticed that the servers have changed from red, yellow, and blue to silver and gold. I was previously on the red server with over 300 hours of gameplay, all regions defeated and the kanto and johto pokedexes complete, not to mention countless other achievements in the game. Now i have 0 hours on both the silver and gold servers and had to start over. Was it like this for everyone or did something go wrong? I put hundreds of dollars into my last account and now have nothing. Can someone explain to me how I get all of my progress back.

After reclogging a few times, it finally went away.
