4th Gen What do you miss about DPPt?

2 things I miss about this gen: The Underground and Game Corner. I could spend a long time in the Underground looking for shards, stones and plates. The Game Corner in gen 4 was the best by far. There was never a time where my coins were reduced to zero.

Diamond and Pearl were my first Pokémon games (if you only count the main additions - I also had Pokémon Ranger). So, Sinnoh will always have a place in my heart that only it can fill.

The story was actually the thing I miss because it was pretty in-depth if you thought about it and talked to all the NPC's. Cyrus actually had a family and everything that he abandoned on a search for power. Then, the whole thing with Charon and Rotom was memorable. Team Galactic also seemed threatening (unlike other antagonists).

I dunno. More recent games seem to throw out dull storylines with evil groups that are barely worthy of the title "thugs".

Pokeradar & Poketech I want that stuff back I wonder why they took that stuff out.

^ They brought the Pokeradar back, actually.

I am actually hard pressed to think of something I want to return from DPPt...so I looked at other posts and some of you mentioned the Vs. Seeker and I would definitely agree with that. One of my favorite items in Pokemon, honestly. It makes grinding and such much easier and I don't understand why it hasn't been brought back. Of course, it started in gen III but...it's all I could think of. And some Poketch apps were cool. I liked being able to check friendship and keep tabs on my team in the bottom screen.

The Distortion World.

It was an extremely unique place to me, how it was a puzzling and mysterious area, that had an odd effect on the Legendary Pokemon known as Giratina. I loved the feel of the area. Ominous, unknown, leaving you wanting to delve into it more, to both find the Pokemon that awaits, and to just find out more about this odd area.

I miss the party screen of the Poketch. I know that's a really specific thing, but I do a lot of item farming, and it was very convenient to just touch the screen to see if any of my Linoone had activated Pickup after the last battle.

I miss the "VS Seeker" and the Stark Mountain theme - it was so funky. The music was awesome in 4th Gen !

I don't miss playing them or anything about them. Gen 4 is without a doubt my least favorite. So slow, so bland. If anything, I miss contests, I actually really enjoy them.

The casino I liked that place the games now (voltorb flip was the one I played) are waaaaay harder

I lost pearl and traded in diamond without quite completing them, and recently have really wanted to play them again, therefore I went on to Amazon yesterday and Diamond should be with me tomorrow to thursday. I miss so much of those two games and can't wait to start playing again :)

I miss that little mansion you got at the end of Platinum. I don't remember if it was just Platinum or all three, but I liked how people like Dawn and Gym Leaders would come visit when you put up certain furniture. I was hoping that came back in X/Y. But nope, instead we get a Battle Chateau and a Battle Maison.

What I miss from Diamond Pearl and Platinum?
Diamond Pearl and Platinum, that's what.

Oh everything was just so great, the Villa, Super Contests, Amity Square, Plot, what was imo the best Core Series Music ever, Underground, Barry/Cedric :3, Battle Frontier (esp. The ones Pt introduced), Morning/Day/Night Pokémon and Music differences, Game Corner, Pokétch, VS. Seeker, SINNOH.


Also Platinum is tied as my favourite Pokémon Game alongside Conquest and PMD BRT and PMD EoS so ;p
