Pokémon Platinum (Japanese: ポケットモンスタープラチナ Pocket Monsters Platina) is a sister game to Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, and is the third Generation IV main series game. The mascot is Giratina. It will take place in the Sinnoh region and the player's starting location will be Twinleaf Town, just like Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. The game was first seen on May 11, 2008 when a low-resolution cell-phone picture of an upcoming issue of CoroCoro magazine was leaked around the internet. On May 13, a high-resolution scan was seen. Finally, on May 15, the magazine was officially released and the game was also officially confirmed by Nintendo.

Trivia
- This is the first game where a version mascot's primary color is not the name of the game. However, while no color is especially dominant in Giratina's color scheme, it has grey elements that the "Platinum" may refer to, and the names Giratina and Platina share the same word ending.
- Unless the Sinnoh Dex is altered, Platinum will be the first game to feature a mascot not found in a regional Pokédex.
