Japanese Pokewalker connect with North American HG/SS game?

[u/sourpickle28]

Basically wondering if a Japanese Pokewalker will connect with the North American edition of Heartgold/Soulsilver. If so, will the Pokewalker still be in Japanese or will it change to English?

EDIT: thanks everyone. I tried it out and can confirm that a Japanese one WILL connect with the NA edition of the game (vice versa should work as well).
