Pokemon Diamond and Pearl

Started by JKozzy6 pages

I'm considering getting this game.... like Lana I haven't played the games since the Yellow version. Sounds like the games have grown quite large.... there'll always be 151 pokemon to me.

For what it's capable of, I think it's extremely reasonably priced. The first Game Boy was $180 when it came out.

So which do you people prefer: Playing during the Day or the Night?

I wonder why they took the Day and Night Feature out when with Ruby and Sapphire but decided to put it back in with Diamond and Pearl.

I basically just play whenever; most of my playtime so far has been afternoon-evening. Night gets annoying because all of the damned Zubats everywhere ermm

It's just that it has been out for ages and still haven't dropped in price, and it just feels weird that a GameCube is cheaper then a DS.

Not when you consider how long the Gamecube has been out in comparison to the DS and that the Gamecube is out of commission now. No more games are being made for it and it's last generation.

Makes sense.

Yup.

Lucky Americans, average price of a Nintendo DS here in Norway is 235-240$, and the cheapest one they only had a limited of were selling for a whooping 200-210$ a month or so ago. In my opinion that's a bit too expensive for something that has been on the market for nearly three years.

Is it possible to go on a website like Ebay or import one somehow? You'd have to pay a good amount for shipping but in the long run you could maybe save money.

That's more due to exchange rates than anything else, though.

And I second what JKozzy said - try getting an import one. The systems are region-free (unless you plan on playing Chinese games, in which you'd need a Chinese system).

Ah that's right, region free. I'll look into that, any sites besides auctioneering sites that sell games and gaming systems online?

I didn't know they allowed games in China.

😐 haermm

Well I purchased Pokemon Diamond this morning.

When I went to the other Wal-Mart last week, it was sold out but was $40.

The Wal-Mart that I went to this morning was selling them for $34.

Hmmm.....

And they had a lot of them too. The games took up more than a single shelf space.

This is the first time that I've played through a Pokemon game without 6 main Pokemon. I refused to catch that Generic Sparky or whatever that bird pokemon's name is that you keep running into all through out the game.

So I never caught a bird Pokemon. I was hoping against hope "Piplup" would be able to fly although I highly doubted it. Plus I wouldn't want to weight it down with a bunch of HM's.

Which by the way, I hate HM's ugh! I refused to give any of my main pokemon "Rock Smash" so I gave it to some random geodude who I have to keep switching in and out of the computer whenever I need it which is annoying.

But yeah, I'm more than halfway through the game and I still only have 5 main pokemon and I eventually caught a Sparky just so that I would be able to fly around, but i don't battle with it. Just there for transportation. I went back and found a Mercrow or whatever it's name is, but my goal is to catch a Chatnot once I get to the area in the game where it's located. Once I catch, that, I'll make it my main bird pokemon and teach it fly.

The HM Smog seems perfectly useless by the way. I've used it only once.

So yeah.

Can't wait for Pokemon Battle Revolution.

Does anybody know if you lose your pokemon on the DS if you transfer them over to Battle Revolution? That would suck, though I'm sure it's the case.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

i dont even think you can transfer it to battle revolution can you? cause that would be just weird....... and you probably wont if they do it through wifi.... the only reason i can think of losing it is if its a one way conection like the pokemon lg fr r s and e....
