With the release of HG/SS do you think..
 
With the release of HG/SS looming over us (quite exciting, really!) do you think people are going to quit playing Pearl/Diamond/Platinum?

Aro-kun March 13th, 2010 6:29 PM

I know I won't. But thats cause most of my "training equipment" is in my diamond. But I will stop using it for battles.

Gary, the Magic Fairy March 13th, 2010 6:32 PM

I don't play Pearl anymore anyway.

But yes, I do.

TrinityLimit March 13th, 2010 7:07 PM

nope. i'll probably still use my diamond and pearl for battles. my diamond has all my good items anways :P

cabaret March 13th, 2010 8:58 PM

Yep, simply because I havent even gotten all the damn badges yet, because im slow and get pre-occupied easily and forget what it is im doing in the game so re start it.

Lt_Nite March 13th, 2010 9:03 PM

I'm having trouble playing Platinum as it is, just can't find anything to do and as for Diamond haven't played it in ages, so the answer is yes I will probably quit playing it for now.

empty streets March 14th, 2010 2:32 AM

I'll use my Diamond anyway. I still have to beat the game since I restarted yesterday xD.

But of course as soon as I get Soul Silver it will take over my mind..

Moltres111 March 14th, 2010 2:43 AM

When I get SoulSilver, I will probably stop playing Platinum for the most part. The reasons for that is simple:

-I despise contests. :s
-I like how the Pokeathlon looks. It seems fun.
-REBATTLING RED EVERY TIME YOU BEAT THE ELITE FOUR ONCE! ASSOFDNVISDNGAD;ASIFNSDNFND :D
-An Elite Four with types I like better than the Sinnoh one? ;o
-A better storyline? (at least waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than D/P's..)
-Better graphics :D
-I liek Lugias :D more than Giratinas :-o
-I like the PC box system better in HGSS xD

So yeah, gonna use Platinum as a slave game and SoulSilver as my main one. :3

Thankfully my mother has a DS aswell so I can just borrow that one while she's not home (hehe! :D) to trade over all my good pokes from Pt to SS when I feel like it :]

Katie_Q March 14th, 2010 2:49 AM

I'm going to be doing an eevee evo run through on my heart gold, so when I get it I'll probs still be getting eggs from my diamond. But I'm bored with my diamond anyway. I think for a while not many people will play, but eventually people will decide to go through the games again

YanmegaLv55 March 14th, 2010 3:11 AM

I know when I get my HeartGold, i will be looking forward to:
Catching Ho-Oh
Trading my Event Pikachu Colored Pichu to get the Spike Eared one
The New Starters
The new story
The new Gyms and E4
Better graphics
Shinto Ruins
New HS/SS Events

It gaonna be awesome!!!

pokefangunner March 14th, 2010 3:22 AM

I probably will not play platinum for a long long time cause all my pokemon are going into the best game ever pokemon heartgold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rainflower March 14th, 2010 3:41 AM

I will probably get preoccupied with HGSS and lots of other games, so maybe... I'm not going to play it for a while unless I'm in the mood.

Shiny Shaymin March 14th, 2010 4:06 AM

The only thing I'll use my Diamond and Platinum for is trading.

TheAppleFreak March 14th, 2010 4:06 AM

I won't stop playing Platinum, per se, but it's usage will see a drastic decline.

Alternative March 14th, 2010 4:08 AM

I'll keep playing Pearl for breeding and EV training and whatnot, but I'll mostly play SoulSilver when it comes out.

GSCyndaquil19 March 14th, 2010 4:53 AM

ppl will probably stop using for wifi and will onlyuse it to trade over good pokemon

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ March 14th, 2010 5:14 AM

Some people will. My brother will, or at least that's what he claims. I will not, however.

I've built up a pretty large contact list in my Platinum Pal Pad. The globe at the GTS that tracks the places of people you've connected with is pretty full as well in Platinum. I am currently at 491 for Pokedex completion. I've beat a good number of the Contests and gotten all the Frontier Silver Prints (and one gold as well). I don't want to have to start all of that over just because of the new games. So, I'll play through SS once, maybe twice over the summer (when I won't be on wi-fi anyway) and resume trading/battling on Platinum once I'm done with that.

Amore March 14th, 2010 5:27 AM

I'll stop playing it for a while.But that's coz i'll be playing SoulSilver.

I'll start again though.I like replaying my games, so i'll probably trade everything over to Diamond (gonna be my storage)

chikorita125 March 14th, 2010 5:32 AM

i won't quite playing platnium when i get my Heart gold game, cause i like platnium

560cool. March 14th, 2010 5:53 AM

Well , I'll transfer my good Pokemon form Platinum to HeartGold , my best items (2 MasterBalls !! Lah , lah lah ! Lottery WINNER !) and the I'll restart Pt. for Slave Game reasons ...

Muahahaa , I am so evil ! >:-)

Kikaito plush March 14th, 2010 5:55 AM

I have to trade over a few pokemon from my platinum and pearl...

Skystrike March 14th, 2010 6:47 AM

When I get HG and SS:

Goodbye Flash Cart and Platinum.
(I'm transfering my Pt pokes to HG&SS.)

xPsychosocial March 14th, 2010 8:39 AM

Probably, but I'm gonna keep using my Pearl because most of my items and Pokémon are in it. I'll keep Pearl for my PBR file.

TheGearofWar March 14th, 2010 8:41 AM

I already quit playing DPPt lol, it got really boring after awhile and I was just excited for HGSS. I did play it recently to breed a Misdreavus for my team though.

Cenzo25 March 14th, 2010 8:44 AM

For now, I will, because I'm bored with Sinnoh! However, when I am bored with Johto...
