Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The fourth generation of Pokémon games, Diamond and Pearl hit the Nintendo DS in Japan in 2006 and the rest of the world in 2007. Taking place in Sinnoh, the Pokémon world version of the Japanese island of Hokkaido, the plot is familiar territory for the series: you, a child from the modest little village of Twinleaf Town, and your hyperactive best friend, have a fateful encounter with Professor Rowan, the local authority on Pokémon, and his well-meaning but inexperienced assistant. Said encounter leaves you both with your first Pokémon, so naturally you set out To Be a Master, collecting monsters and badges and challenging/defeating opposing Trainers along the way.At some point, you also encounter Team Galactic, a group that claims to be researching new forms of energy, but isn't above unabashedly illegal acts in broad daylight... what exactly are their goals? As the Player Character, naturally your hero's on a crash course to find out...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A third version, titled Platinum, came out a couple years down the line. Platinum tweaked the storyline a bit, adding more characters, remodeling the graphics of a few locations, revamping some gyms, and naturally including new challenges for players.Not to be confused with seasons 10 through 13 of the Pokémon animenote Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl; Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl: Battle Dimension; Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl: Galactic Battles; and Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl: Sinnoh League Victors, but Pokémon from this era do show up in the show. For the bootleg under the name "Pokemon Diamond", see Telefang. | |

Never Recycle a Building | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_1cfd9ec9 | comment |
Never Recycle a Building: The Old Chateau was abandoned several decades ago (at least), yet still stands more or less untouched since it was vacated despite being literally on Eterna City's doorstep. This probably has something to do with the fact that it became overrun with Ghost Pokémon at some point. | |

Sequel Difficulty Drop | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_20847f2c | comment |
Sequel Difficulty Drop: The post-game battle facilities. Previously, you had to make sure that all your Pokémon were at the same level (the NPCs' levels would be the same as the strongest Pokémon in your team, similar to the Stadium games), and this level had to be above the base level for all NPCs, 60. Now, you simply have to get them to at least Lv. 50, and the game will bring down any higher leveled Pokémon. The Frontier has been reduced from 7 facilities to 5, none of which have gimmicks anywhere near as frustrating as in Emerald, like the Battle Palace shunning player input so the Pokémon can attack based on their Natures, or the Battle Pyramid's Blackout Basement. | |

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_25dc6ef5 | comment |
Apathetic Citizens: Downplayed. Most people said that Team Galactic was "up to no good". A lot of them probably didn't realize the scale of their mission, since the worst they did in public was steal a Pokémon from a kid. In Platinum, it does seem that the government is at least trying to do something by sending a detective/secret agent on their trails. Inverted in that most of Team Galactic's own members had no idea what they were actually doing and would have probably freaked out if they had known. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Three Trainers from the Pokémon: Jirachi: Wish Maker and Pokémon: Destiny Deoxys movies appear as Ace Trainers in the Battle Zone. Butler and Diane from movie 6 appear on Route 229, the two of them sharing four of the Pokémon Butler owned in the movie. Rebecca (named "Hitomi" in Japan) from movie 7 appears on Route 224 with her Metagross. The English translation team did not notice this Easter Egg however, as Butler and Diane are renamed "Felix" and "Dana", respectively, and Rebecca/Hitomi is renamed "Jamie" instead. Diamond and Pearl open up with a TV documentary about a sighting of a red Gyarados. One of the guards in the houses connecting routes will complain about his thirst. Luckily, he's not on duty, so he can't stall your progress. Once all of the events involving him have been completed, Looker can be found at the Veilstone Game Corner, apparently on a long run at the slots. Given that the "Gambler" trainer class was Bowdlerized into being detectives internationally, finding an actual detective on a gambling binge makes perfect sense. note Diamond and Pearl had already been out for over a year in the regions where the Bowdlerization occurred when Platinum, where Looker debuts, was first announced in Japan | |

Regional Redecoration: Floraroma Town used to be a desolate hill until someone expressed thanks for a blessing of nature and the entire hill burst into bloom, which is implied to have been the work of Shaymin. The evidence being that during the Oak's Letter event it turns the rocky hill both Lucas/Dawn and Professor Oak are standing into a grassy flower field after the former gives thanks for their journey, before heading off to the Flower Paradise. | |

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_2bcd6fc8 | comment |
Character Select Forcing: There are only 2 Fire-type families in the region before the post-game, the Ponyta and Chimchar lines, the latter being a starter. This had to be known by GameFreak, as they made one of the Elite Four a Fire-type user and only 2 of his Pokémon are actually Fire-type, and it doesn't actually include every Pokémon introduced in Generation IV. This was fixed in Platinum. | |

Awesome, but Impractical: Any Rampardos using Head Smash. Head Smash is a powerful move, goes well with Rampardos sky high attack, and comes with STAB damage. However, half the damage done is dealt back to the user as recoil, and with Rampardos being such a Glass Cannon, you won't be able to use it more than once. | |

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: There have been reports of Pokémon straight up disappearing from the PC due to unknown causes. Platinum only, and carried over to HeartGold and SoulSilver; the Acid Rain glitch will cause every weather to activate at once if a Pokémon faints to Pursuit while attempting to switch out if a weather is in play during a Player Versus Player battle. If Castform or Cherrim are sent out after the glitch has been triggered they will constantly transform due to their abilities being weather-dependent and cause the battle to softlock, requiring a restart. | |

Magikarp Power: Combee starts off knowing three moves and its stats are lousy. Also its ability is only useful for producing Vendor Trash. But if you can get your hands on an elusive female and raise her up to level 21, you'll have yourself a Vespiquen, a combination of a bee and a battleship with a touch of European royalty. Not only are her stats better, but she has a much wider variety of attacks to choose from and has three signature moves each revolving around controlling swarms of Combee and has good abilities to choose from. | |

Guest-Star Party Member: There are 5 trainers you can team up with over the course of the game. They'll accompany you through the area you meet them up in, participating in Tag Battles with you against other trainers and Random Encounters and healing your team after every battle. You can also team up with them in the Battle Tower (all games) and fight them in the Battleground (Platinum only), but only if you've traveled with them to the end of their area. | |

Adult Fear: A post-game encounter in Platinum with an elderly man who laments that he knew his grandson was living in an emotionally unhealthy home (whether it was abusive or just that severely neglectful is left to speculation), but didn't do anything to help until it was already too late to save him. It's heavily implied that his grandson is Cyrus, the Big Bad of the game. Imagine living with the guilt of knowing you could have prevented that and didn't. | |

Bronzor and Bronzong. Their Psychic/Steel-typing leaves them with only two weaknesses, Fire and Ground, and both of their abilities negate one of those weaknesses. If they have Heatproof they don't any extra damage from Fire, and if they have Levitate they are immune to Ground. Combined with their above-average bulk and access to several moves that inflict Standard Status Effects, they can be a handful to take down. | |

But Thou Must! | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_504e271f | comment |
But Thou Must!: When you get the Old Rod and Good Rods on Routes 218 and 209 respectively, the Fishermen will ask you if you need an explanation on how to use the rods. Even if you say no, they'll still blab on about them. When you get to the end of Iron Island and Riley offers you the Riolu egg, if you say no, he'll "insist". You have to say yes, even if you have a full party, in which case he'll wait until you come back with a free spot. In Platinum, Cynthia will stop you from going to the bike shop unless you accept the Togepi egg. When you reach Stark Mountain for the first time you encounter Buck who asks you to patrol it for some suspicious activity. If you say "No" he'll keep asking. | |

Inn Between the Worlds | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_52e23ce | comment |
Inn Between the Worlds: You know that one inn in Canalave with the worn-out sign and the perpetually locked door? If you get a certain item made available via Nintendo Event (or hack it into your game with a cheating device), you'll be able to enter, being told that you have a reservation. The innkeeper seems quite suspicious, and after you go to sleep, you'll be plagued with nightmares similar to what Sailor Eldritch's son had in the Cresselia quest and either wake up on Newmoon Island or travel there in the nightmare; it's a bit ambiguous. Darkrai can be found there, and after you catch or defeat it, you'll travel back to the inn, where the innkeeper is nowhere to be found; it's somewhat implied that the innkeeper was Darkrai. | |

Badass Family: This generation's Gym Leader lineup introduces Byron and Roark, a father and son pair who represent Canalave City and Oreburgh City. Byron is also related to the Underground Man, making them, as the game puts it, "a team of dedicated diggers"! There's also the rival, Barry, who is a plenty strong trainer in his own right, and his absurdly-tough father Palmer, the Battle Tower Tycoon. | |

The P.I. Trainers are Gamblers in Japan; pay attention to how they talk about chance and how they are flipping a coin in their sprite. Their resemblance to a detective was purely coincidental.

Disc-One Nuke | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_5b81ca8d | comment |
Disc-One Nuke: Starly, the standard early game bird Com Mon, learns Wing Attack at a mere level 9. Wing Attack is a 60 base power move and Starly gets additional STAB damage from it, giving it considerable power at a low level. There is a good chance that an appropriately leveled Starly will be able to one-hit KO anything that doesn't resist it for a good ways into the game. In Platinum, after getting the first badge and doing a little backtracking, it is possible to find a level 10 Golbat in Oreburgh Gate once you get Rock Smash. (Zubat does not normally evolve into Golbat until level 22.) Golbat evolves to the insanely fast and strong Crobat at max happiness, meaning that the player could have the final form of a three-stage family by the time they reach the second Gym. Oh, and both of Crobat's types are super effective against said Gym. And if you're really crazy and want to do everything to raise its happiness to the max, you can actually get a Crobat as low as level 11. Just after the second Gym, in Platinum only, Wayward Cave's secret area isn't blocked by boulders so you can have easy access to both Gible and the Earthquake TM easily before the third gym. | |

Balance Buff | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_6e1e24a | comment |
Balance Buff: Generally speaking, these were the games that fully implemented the Physical-Special split.note Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness was technically the first game to introduce the split, but it only applied to Shadow moves. In Generations I-III, moves were classified as either Physical or Special based what type the move in question was (for example, all offensive Ghost-type moves were classified as Physical moves, meaning they only ran off a Pokémon's Attack). The Physical-Special split made it so that each individual move were categorized as either Physical or Special regardless of typing. This made it so that certain Pokémon who excelled in one particular stat but had no reliable STAB moves could finally cut loose (like Gengar and Sneasel for example). The Physical-Special split especially gave Waterfall a badly-needed shot in the arm. Prior to the split, Water-type moves were classified as Special, and Waterfall was stuck as a worse version of Surf since the move was fairly weaker and there were tons of Water-types who were stuck using water moves off their inferior special attack. Starting from these games, it was made a Physical move, which brings it out from Surf's shadow and gives Water-type physical attackers a solid move to work with. It also gained the ability to make targets flinch. Several moves received power buffs in these games. Notable examples include Leaf Blade going from 70 to 90, Outrage being boosted from 90 to a massive 120, and Rock Smash being brought up from a wimpy 20 to a slightly less wimpy 40. Hypnosis received a notable accuracy buff from 60% to 70%, which was promptly undone in Platinum onward. Absorb, Mega Drain, and Giga Drain all got their PP increased by 5 (to 25, 15, and 10 respectively). Sitrus Berries now heal 25% of a Pokémon's max HP instead of 30 HP, and berries will activate immediately after their HP reach a certain amount rather than at the end of the turn. | |

Super Contests, most of all the Acting Competition since bonus points are awarded based on how few other Pokémon choose the same judge. The Visual Competition, though primarily dependent on Poffin feeding, also depends on what theme you get since the opponents choose the same accessories every time (and which accessories correspond to which theme are not always intuitive). The only part that isn't particularly luck-based is the Dance Competition, which can possibly make up for lost ground in the other two sections. | |

Diamond and Pearl may give you a message when you save that it's "saving a lot of data," which means it will take about three times as long to load. This is caused by the Box System. If you catch a Pokémon and it's sent to the box, prepare to take a while to save. If you look at the Box System for one second and don't even bother touching anything, prepare to take a long while to save. If you go hours on your journey without bothering to mess with the Box System, you'll save in a few seconds. This is because doing anything with the boxes triggers a flag that causes the game to calculate the checksums of all boxed Pokémon data on the next save, to make sure nothing got corrupted. It's a good programming practice taken into overdrive. | |

Boss in Mook Clothing: Hiker Alexander on Route 208. He only has one Pokémon, but it's a Level 40 Probopass with the moves Block, Thunder Wave, Sandstorm and Rock Slide. If you don't have a Fighting-type/Ground-type or a Mon equipped with a Fighting or Ground move, you'll have an extremely difficult battle on your hands due to its high bulk. There is the duo of Ace Trainers Dennis and Maya at the north entrance to Veilstone City. They use high-powered, high-level Pokémon for that point in the game (Gyarados and Driftblim in Diamond and Pearl, Lickitung and Gligar in Platinum). At this point, you'll only have two or three badges, and if you don't talk to them from the side and instead rush toward the city entrance, you have to battle both of them at once a Double Battle. Bronzor and Bronzong. Their Psychic/Steel-typing leaves them with only two weaknesses, Fire and Ground, and both of their abilities negate one of those weaknesses. If they have Heatproof they don't any extra damage from Fire, and if they have Levitate they are immune to Ground. Combined with their above-average bulk and access to several moves that inflict Standard Status Effects, they can be a handful to take down. | |

Rewrite: Platinum changes the circumstances of how you obtain your starter, possibly to avoid any Fridge Logic when you meet Looker, as he is searching for Pokémon thieves. note In Diamond/Pearl, you swipe your starter from Rowan's briefcase to defend yourself from a wild Starly attack, meaning you took them without permission; Rowan's comments afterward imply he only "gives" them to you because they've already imprinted on you and wouldn't work with anyone else anyway. Platinum, by contrast, has him giving them to you directly. | |

Big Bad | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_970c790a | comment |
A man next to Route 222 won't let you pass because of a blackout in Sunyshore City until after you've beaten the Big Bad. This one is at least slightly justified by the fact that not only did Volkner cause the blackout, it likely would have shut down his gym, meaning there would be little point in going to Sunyshore anyway. | |

Luck-Based Mission | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_98b1dc8f | comment |
Luck-Based Mission: If you want the TM for Explosion, you have to play the slots in the Game Corner and trigger 10 straight bonus rounds. You're playing slots, so your chain can be broken simply due to bad luck. The European and South Korean versions of the game removed the ability to play at the Game Corner, so in those versions you may randomly receive the TM from an NPC. Super Contests, most of all the Acting Competition since bonus points are awarded based on how few other Pokémon choose the same judge. The Visual Competition, though primarily dependent on Poffin feeding, also depends on what theme you get since the opponents choose the same accessories every time (and which accessories correspond to which theme are not always intuitive). The only part that isn't particularly luck-based is the Dance Competition, which can possibly make up for lost ground in the other two sections. The 5-Maid Knockout Exact-Turn Attack Challenge in Platinum pits you against a series of five Maids, all of whom have a single Clefairy. In order to beat the challenge, you have to defeat all five in a randomly-determined number of turns — no more, no less. Sounds easy, right? Unfortunately, every single Clefairy has access to moves like Endure or Bounce that they can use to stall for time. Even with the most powerful party capable of single-handedly wiping the floor with the Elite Four, if your opponents use those moves often enough, you fail. Of course, your only reward for beating the challenge is another battle against someone who has a Blissey (though they shell out plenty of cash and you can steal a Rare Candy from the Blissey, if you're so inclined). If you want to find extra Reaper Cloths beyond the ones normally found as part of play, you have to go back to Turnback Cave after catching Giratina and successfully find all three pillars in only three moves. The rooms are randomly generated, and a reliable way to predict the correct way to go from each room has yet to be found. Considering that the Reaper Cloth's one use (evolving Dusclops into Dusknoir) isn't seen as all that useful beyond filling out a spot in the Pokédex and you already get one for free, most players don't even bother. | |

ComMon | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_9918c3f0 | comment |
Starly, the standard early game bird Com Mon, learns Wing Attack at a mere level 9. Wing Attack is a 60 base power move and Starly gets additional STAB damage from it, giving it considerable power at a low level. There is a good chance that an appropriately leveled Starly will be able to one-hit KO anything that doesn't resist it for a good ways into the game. | |

The Day the Music Lied: In Diamond and Pearl, Rotom uses the Legendary Battle theme. While certainly rare in every game it's available in, it has always been able to be bred (albeit only with Ditto because it lacks a gender), a sure sign of not being a legendary. | |

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_9b53f32 | comment |
Exposed to the Elements: In Diamond and Pearl, the protagonist is somehow able to survive the likes of Snowpoint City with just a t-shirt and jeans (for the boy) or a short, sleeveless dress (for the girl) and a scarf. This is averted in Platinum, where the protagonists are wearing jackets. Platinum also exaggerates and lampshades it with Maylene, who walks all the way to Snowpoint in nothing more than a leotard and sweatpants (she's even barefoot). She sneezes while explaining to the player that she's going to visit Candice, but she's otherwise suffering no ill effects for this by the time she's met in Snowpoint's Center. | |

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_9bee1a7f | comment |
Eldritch Location: In Platinum, Giratina lives in a strange alternate dimension called the Distortion World. Time does not flow, space does not expand, and gravity is not a consistent concept in this strange reality. There are a few points where the camera changes angles and the character is walking sideways or upside-down. Finally, there are some spots where the plants appear or disappear depending on where you stand. | |

Third-Option Adaptation: In Diamond, Cyrus uses Dialga for his plans. In Pearl, Cyrus uses Palkia. In Platinum, he uses both until Giratina intervenes. In Diamond, the statue in Eterna City is that of Dialga, in Pearl, it is of Palkia. In Platinum, the player character can't tell which one it is, and the plaque on the statue has been torn off. | |

This also carries into Platinum's Frontier Brain theme, which is derived from the Fight Area BGM and thus gives the Bonus Boss trainers of the region some of the most upbeat battle music in the entire series. | |

Video Game Delegation Penalty | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_acaf9059 | comment |
Video Game Delegation Penalty: You may choose to leave two of your Mons at the Pokémon Day Care. Pokémon in Day Care gain one experience point per every step the player takes. While it's nice to have a Pokémon leveling up while you simply walk around, there are several drawbacks to this method. For one, Pokémon in Day Care will not evolve. Two, if a Pokémon reaches a level where it can learn a new move, it will always learn that move; if the Pokémon already knows four moves, its first move will be forgotten and the new move will be placed last. This can lead to your Mons forgetting moves you wanted while learning moves you do not. Third, the Mon will not gain Effort Points as it would have if you leveled it up yourself through battle. This will leave it with somewhat lesser stats at higher levels than it would have had if you leveled it up yourself. | |

Sheathe Your Sword: An interesting variation. It is perfectly possible to move the plot forward in Platinum by defeating or capturing Giratina, but you can also simply refuse to fight it by running. The game, through Cyrus being astounded at simply choosing to not fight it making Giratina come to its senses, will acknowledge this decision. | |

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_c5f23623 | comment |
Broken Bridge: Route 210 is blocked by a group of Psyduck, which you could've defeated easily, but instead you have to get a Secret Potion because they have headaches. A man next to Route 222 won't let you pass because of a blackout in Sunyshore City until after you've beaten the Big Bad. This one is at least slightly justified by the fact that not only did Volkner cause the blackout, it likely would have shut down his gym, meaning there would be little point in going to Sunyshore anyway. Random people block your way for no legitimate reason. Route 212 is blocked from the northern side, even after you've beaten Hearthome City's Gym, just to make you take a longer path. No badges, no special events, nothing. In Platinum, a battle is blocking the entrance to Canalave City if you manage to Surf there before picking up the HM from Celestic Town. After you escape from the Distortion World in Platinum, you're placed outside the entrance to Turnback Cave. Cynthia just happens to be standing in front of the entrance, and will remain standing there until you defeat her at the Pokémon League. | |

Shout-Out | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out There's a Trainer in the post-game part of Victory Road that wants to judo chop you. One of the Galatic Grunts makes a reference to Sony's 2006 E3 presentation, specifically the "for massive damage" line. The lead translator was a Something Awful regular, and decided to throw in a reference to a Let's Play from the site. The female Interviewer that can be battled in the Jubilife TV station had her name was translated as "Roxy" since she uses a Wooper, after the player character from Chorocojo's run of Pokémon Crystal. The area in which the most powerful Steel Pokémon is found is called Stark Mountain. The Pokémon Rotom is clearly based on Pulseman, and one possible translation of Team Galactic's name is "Galaxy Gang". And speaking of Pulseman, a bit of the Pulseman overworld music is used in the 2nd last part of the rival's (Barry's) battle theme. On Iron Island, there is a worker named Noel who says that he is a working-class hero. | |

Metal Slime | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_c923e7a6 | comment |
Metal Slime: Beldum. It can only be found as a swarm Pokémon, meaning it can only be encountered for one day at a time after beating the game and it can potentially take weeks before a Beldum swarm shows up. Beldum has a catch rate on par with most legendaries, which means an extremely low likelihood of catching it even if it's at 1 HP and asleep/paralyzed. It also only appears in a route with a perpetual sandstorm that whittles down your Pokémon's HP unless it's a Steel, Rock, or Ground-type. If that's not all, Beldum's only move learned naturally is Take Down, which damages the user every time it's used. You can block Take Down with a Ghost-type, but there are no Ghost-types immune to sandstorm damage in those games, meaning you have to waste a turn healing every now and then. And if you don't catch it before it runs out of uses for Take Down, it can damage itself with Struggle. It's worth it, though - Beldum eventually evolves into the extremely powerful Metagross. | |

Cosmic Horror Reveal | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_cb11543c | comment |
Cosmic Horror Reveal: Cyrus, the Big Bad takes this Up to Eleven by attempting to destroy and re-create the entire universe as he sees fit. He does this by imprisoning three legendary Pokemon (Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit) in order to create an object called the "Red Chain" which he then uses to summon Dialga and Palkia (who happen to be the God of Time and God of Space respectively). Cyrus then attempts to use their power to bend reality and reshape the universe in his image. In Pokemon Platinum, this causes Giratina (a ghostly dragon-god living in an alternate dimension) to become enraged and drags Cyrus into its world (a bizarre realm where the laws of physics and so forth are far beyond human understanding. Appropriately, it's called the "Distortion World"). And, once again, it's up to the player to save the day. | |

Anti-Frustration Features: From these games and onward, your Bag of Holding now has a limit of 999 copies of each item instead of 99. There is a space for every item in the game, so there's no risk of your bag filling up unless you actually get at least a thousand of an item, causing the overflow to take over another item's slot. No longer will you have to put items in your PC. If you knock out a Legendary, it will return to the place you encounter it after beating the Pokémon League again. The map app in your Pokétch shows the location of roaming Pokémon without having to find them for yourself first, making it way more easier to find and catch them. | |

Breakout Character | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_da0eeab5 | comment |
Breakout Character: Lucario's popularity surged to the point where it essentially became the mascot of the Generation. It got a movie focusing on it, was included in Super Smash Bros. as a playable character, and was even given a Mega Evolution in Pokémon X and Y. Among the human characters it is Cynthia and Looker to the point that subsequent games would try to feature at least one of them in. | |

Artificial Brilliance: Enemy trainers tend to give their Pokémon moves that can cope with their weaknesses. And yes, they will use it on you. | |

Bag of Holding | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_e3226029 | comment |
From these games and onward, your Bag of Holding now has a limit of 999 copies of each item instead of 99. There is a space for every item in the game, so there's no risk of your bag filling up unless you actually get at least a thousand of an item, causing the overflow to take over another item's slot. No longer will you have to put items in your PC. | |

Nerf | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_e545e190 | comment |
Nerf: Hypnosis' accuracy was reduced to 60% in Platinum after Diamond and Pearl increased it to 70%. A quite cruel, but hilarious one happens to poor ol' Regigigas in Platinum. In Diamond and Pearl, this legendary is level 70, but in Platinum, the legendary is Level 1. That's right, the big Daddy of Golems starts with the level of an infant Pokemon. Surf, one of the best Water-type moves in Generation III, was nerfed by no longer avoiding your ally in Double Battles. | |

108: Diamond version's Pokedex description of Spiritomb is "A Pokémon that was formed by 108 spirits. It is bound to a fissure in an Odd Keystone." Both its Defense and Special Defense are 108, and its Regional Pokedex number is 108, too. | |

The Maze | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_e6ce4b | comment |
The Maze: Turnback Cave is very cryptic and the player will find themselves moving around in circles constantly unless they follow a series of patterns to get through. Just always go through the door with the odd pattern of rocks. At any time going back through the door you entered will take you back to the entry room. At the end of the cave is Giratina in Diamond & Pearl and another entrance to the Distortion World in Platinum. | |

Bonus Boss | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_ee0327e7 | comment |
Bonus Boss: Getting a win streak of 20 in the Battle Frontier facilities (50 in the Battle Hall) lets you fight that facility's Frontier Brain. Getting a streak of 49 (170 in the Battle Hall) lets you fight them again with a different team. In Diamond and Pearl only Tower Tycoon Palmer can be fought since the Battle Tower is the only facility available in those games. In Platinum, there is an area called the Battleground in the Survival Area where you can rematch all of the Gym Leaders with new teams and fight the Guest Star Party Members you've encountered. | |

Sequel Difficulty Spike | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_f0ddc769 | comment |
Sequel Difficulty Spike: This is the point when NPCs really started taking advantage of TMs, Tutor moves, and Egg moves. Combined with the highest level curve since Gen I (which had poor AI and generally restricted move pools to naturally learned moves), Gen IV proved to be quite the challenge. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: Once you get to Solaceon Town, you actually don't need to complete any of the towns or beat the Gym Leaders in them to progress further down the routes. The only areas blocked off here are Celestic Townnote because of Psyduck and Sunyshore Citynote because of a blackout. So, if you really want to, you can circle around all the way back to Hearthome City. Granted, the only reason worth doing this would be to open a shortcut to the Pokemon Mansion, or if there's a Pokemon you just want/need that much that's only available on those routes, but it is a possibility. | |
