    In the screenshots, we see that Giratina has no gender. The forms change as they switch between games, in the same manner as Deoxys in the 3rd Generation. And in any case, Heatran can be both genders too, and the Latis are legends and they too have genders.

    exactly, so therefore it won't have a gender.

    you have to think of it like a parrallel dimension.
    in one world, something can be completely different from another.
    so, nintendo's concept is that when one thing goes to another dimension, its form completely changes, but the same basis of the being stays the same.
    therefore, the gender wouldn't change, that would be a crime against nature.

    and when i was talking about the free space in the cartridge for johto, i was thinking of emerald. because if you can remember, emerald only had space for one region, and it was the 3rd counterpart to R/S, was it not?
    so that's why i thought they wouldn't include Johto in Platinum.
    But what counters that is that D/P are 130 MB ish, that means that means that nintendo had to use a 256MB card, so if you think about it, there is very much a lot of space to include Johto.

    on another note, when i said how are we gonna cope without shaymin, i meant australians. we haven't had a single D/P event yet!
    so how are we gonna be expected to get the sky forme of shaymin?

    Shaymin will be catchable without going to a Nintendo event, is what will happen. We not need to go to Nintendo event.

    so why would Nintendo and Game Freak make a card with twice as much space than they needed? why did they need to use a 256MB card instead of anything smaller?

    It is called thinking ahead. Nintendo knew they would be making some pretty lengthy games so they gave themselves room to work with.

    i understand that, since Platinum seems really lengthy, but D/P uses, what'd they say, 130MB of space? wat was the point of the other 126 MB if all D/P needed was the first 130?

    Like I said before, they make every DS game card able to hold 256mb so that when they do need a game that uses 256mb, they'll be ready and they won't have to design a new system. What I'm saying is that it will be there when they need it. And also, it is just easier to design game cards with a round number like 256 (It is a round number in binary) then make every game card different.

    it looks like they are giving him something similar to cherrim . another form.
    <img src="/export/sites/default/special/sheimi/img/sheimi_080613_img05.gif" alt="" style="padding: 0pt 7px; position: relative; float: right; margin-top: -40px; z-index: 2;" height="180" width="175">

    looks like an attack one to me.

    Hopefully this works. XD.
    also looks like they are putting all the regi's in for capture.

    It's called Sky Forme (yes, with an e), and it's similar to Giratina's Origin Forme- same Pokemon, same moves, just looks different. Except Shaymin Sky Forme is also Flying type, in addition to Grass type, thus it'll probably know some flying type moves, too.

    What about Regigigas? He's supposed to be in the game as a new form too. Time to wait until July...

    Also, why won't we just download the rom, get an R4DS, and put the game on your DS for no cost! But, it'll be "illegal"...

    i get the feeling that the regigigas forme may be fake, becasue both the new shaymin forme and giratina forme have been released, and there's not much speculation about the new gigas forme. the shaymin forme, however, was a mistake (the release), so maybe the gigas forme is just coming much later.

    and whats scary, Nintendo is making the best games ever (IMO, dont dispute that here) and they can't even spell form right! XD
