Pokémon Diamond Version
Also known as: Pokémon Diamant | Pokémon Diamante | Pocket Monsters Diamond | Pokemon Diamond | Pokémon Diamond
Pokémon Diamond Version and Pearl Version are role-playing games (RPGs) developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS. With the enhanced remake Pokémon Platinum, the games comprise the fifth installment and fourth generation of the Pokémon series of RPGs. First released in Japan on September 28, 2006, the games were later released to North America, Australia, and Europe over the course of 2007. Like previous Pokémon games, Diamond and Pearl chronicle the adventures of a young Pokémon trainer as he/she trains and battles Pokémon while also thwarting the schemes of a criminal organization. The games add many new features, such as Internet play over the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and changes to battle mechanics and Pokémon Contests, along with addition of 107 new Pokémon. The games are independent of each other but feature largely the same plot and while both can be played separately, it is necessary to trade between them in order to complete the games' Pokédexes.

Pack Your Bags
Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl take place in an all-new region called
Sinnoh. When you set off on your travels, you'll be able to play as
either a boy or girl Trainer. Pokémon fans have caught glimpses of Mime
Jr., Lucario, Munchlax and Weavile in Pokémon movies, and these Pokémon
will be debuting in this adventure.
Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl will challenge you to explore the
Sinnoh region in an incredibly deep RPG adventure. Before your quest is
complete, you'll meet over 100 new Pokémon and challenge countless
Trainers along the way. Like previous core Pokémon titles, these games
feature an engrossing storyline and well-balanced RPG action.
As of May 20, 2014, the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service for Nintendo
DSi and Wii systems has been retired. Online features of this game are
no longer available after this date but this game still provides an
entertaining experience in offline mode.
