{{quote|''"Welcome to the next generation of Pokémon! As a rookie Pokémon Trainer, you will need to catch, train and battle Pokémon on your journey to become the Pokémon League Champion. You will face many challenges along the way, as you search for the Pokémon that rules time or space..."''|'''Blurb''' on the back of the boxes of ''Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions''}}
The fourth generation of ''[[
At some point you also encounter Team Galactic, a group that claims to be researching new forms of energy, but isn't above [[Card-Carrying Villain|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...
Line 10:
Being a ''Pokémon'' game, a [[Rule of Three|third version]], titled ''[[Updated Rerelease|Platinum]]'', came out a couple years down the line. ''Platinum'' tweaked the storyline a bit, adding more characters, remodeling several Gyms, and naturally including new challenges for players.
[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl
Not to be confused with seasons 10 through 13 of the ''[[Pokémon (
-----
* [[Apathetic Citizens]]: Semi-subverted. 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 found out.
* [[Artificial Brilliance]]: Enemy trainers tend to give their Pokémon moves that can cope with their weaknesses. And yes, they ''will'' use it on ''you''.
Line 28:
** Also in Platinum, after you escape from the Distortion World, 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.
* [[Bubblegloop Swamp]]: The Great Marsh.
* [[Canon
** In general, it would seem that the 3rd version in each generation is the canonical version.
* [[Capture the Flag]]: A minigame in the Underground.
Line 50:
* [[Lovecraft Lite]]:
** [[Eldritch Location]]: Distortion World. Whatever world Dialga and Palkia come from. What sort of place can you think of that "gives off an overwhelming feeling of time/space"?
* [[Luck-Based Mission]]: If you want the TM for [[Taking You
* [[Mind Screw]]: ''Platinum Version'''s Distortion World.
* [[Mythology Gag]]: Three Trainers from the ''[[Pokémon
** Also possibly the TV program about the red Gyarados that the player character is watching when the game first starts, which is quite possibly referring to the Lake of Rage and its resident red Gyarados in the ''[[
* [[No Fair Cheating]]: Any Pokémon with the ability Mold Breaker will automatically cancel out any ability that prevents it from dealing damage, including Wonder Guard. Among the Pokémon possessing this is [[Glass Cannon]] Rampardos.
** Averted for OHKO + No Guard. This works wonders when used by a fast Pokémon like Ninjask.
Line 64:
** "In return, we'll refrain from causing [[For Massive Damage|massive damage]] to your assistant."
** The substantial amounts of shout-outs to internet terms and memes can be explained by the fact that the lead translator is a [[Something Awful]] regular.
** The area in which the most powerful Steel Pokémon is found is called [[Iron Man
** In the Undergorund, some of the rocks suspiciously look like Tetris pieces....
* [[Sprite Polygon Mix]]
