Diamond or Pearl?

[Eye!]

Well my bday is coming up and my mum has promised me a ds and a game and i want a pokemon game cuz i love pokemon games, should I get diamond or pearl??
Which is better and why??

[Danny,]

get pearl, most people are buying diamond so theyll want the pearl exclusives so you can trade for better pokemon, also i believe palkia is a better type becuase of the water steel combo

[Energizer]

pokemon games are all the same to me. what's the difference between the 2?

Na, palkia is horrible, Dialga is much better Roar of Time = epic move

Not much this time, online though, battle tower is fun, gets hard, much harder than the champion I guess, only pokemon difference really is the one you catch during the main story, if your playing diamond is Dialga if pearl then Palkia

Ya i heard in #pokemon-chat that diamond is better but is it the same as ruby and sapphire where there are a handful of pokemon you can only catch in 1 or the other?

like seedot?

or is it just the whole dialga/palkia thing??

theres a few only available in each version, but you can easily get the others over wifi

You can see almost all of them just playing the game all the way through, only exception is Palkia and Dialga

heh, well

i asked some friends and they said dialga is way better, but out of the 7 of them only 2 have pearl.

So i might get pearl just on the fact no one has it, anthen maybe buy diamond as well so i can get both :s

I'm not sure, also Neil you never voted so is it diamond or pearl you prefer??

I dont use 'ubers' as I find them rather useless because you dont put any effort into raising them as they're already at level 50-80.

Palkia look's cooler and has better STATS in battle.
He can also learn 3 more TM's than Diagla and he learns the Road Of Space.

Diamond, the legendary looks cooler IMO
