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.
Known changes from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl
Aesthetic changes
- Lucas and Dawn will have different outfits.
- The template for the level, HP, and name of Pokémon, or possibly just the battle with Giratina, in battle is a dark grey instead of white.
Storyline changes
- Dialga and Palkia will both be summoned on Spear Pillar by Cyrus. Giratina then phases into the dimension in front of Cyrus.
- Volkner, Gym Leader of Sunyshore City in Diamond and Pearl, will not be gym leader of Sunyshore in Platinum.
Gameplay changes
- Giratina's Origin Forme can now be selected as an alternative form, like Deoxys's forms.
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 extended Platinum will the first game to feature a mascot not found in a regional pokédex.
