Its on like every website pokemon related right now and this is the box art. Its not too early either. It only about a month of the expected release dates that people came up with.

Yes, but where is the proof it is the true boxart?
I mean, it's likely and all, but it is unconfirmed.
And it's not on Pokemon.com, yet, only on fansites like Serebii and Pokebeach, although I find them both reliable and trustworthy.

Have you ever heard the term leak. It is the same as the japanese box just in english and they are always pretty much the same. Pokemon.com only shows released games anyway.

Heres a tip-look it up elsewhere. Pokemon.com isnt exactly the most reliable source when it comes to the games. I mean, the box art has been all over the place for a long time, and considering D/P came out in April...07, I belive? It is belivable. And its already out in Japan, so my guess is that if it doesnt come out in March, it will be sometime in the summer or fall, since Platinum was released in Japan in Fall, and some Pokemon games are known to come out in Summer.

Lol. I think the name Pluto changing is due to Pluto not being a planet anymore. >_> Why have others named after planets when there's an odd one out?

I do keep forgetting that. Then they could have named him neptune or that other planet I think i am forgetting.

They changed it because of Disney's Pluto I believe.

I saw this earlier, but I'm a not very keen about the English names for Handsome and Pluto. Pluto fits in with the whole idea with the admins being named after well known planets.
I'm guessing they changed it since Pluto isn't a planet in the Solar System anymore and it'd seem odd.

As for Looker, it's alright, but it'll take a bit of adjusting to get used to it over Handsome.
Distortion World is fine though and it makes sense.

Three things.

1. The name Charon actually fits, since he's named after a moon. Moon's revolve around planets (Jupiter, Saturn and Mars are named after planets) which shows that he's a subordinate but an important one.
2. I never thought Handsome was the weirdest codename ever.....then came the name Looker.
3. Ruined World sounds better.

It's official.

The metagame has been infected with cancer.
We knew it was doomed from the start, and we could see it from the eyes protruding from Scizor's claws. But the question was, how long will it live?
We have our answer.

Competitive Metagame
September 1st, 1998 - March 22nd, 2009
Lest We Forget

Metagame aside, yay, expanded WiFi and pre-Wake Gliscor! Squee! :D

I'd say it's hit full force rather than just now getting it.........
The Showdown was the first sign, the Platinum came out and it was confirmed, and now it's at the next stage.

And is it really necessary to make so many Cancer jokes?

I've already played a partially hacked english version and the graphics are same... the story line is nearly the same... except when you get the starters... I've said too much... Oh no... I've ruined it for you guys... meh!.. Nah but the story is sick!

The box art is real... http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/ds/home/946308.html.
that was for the box art...

and this is for the release dates. http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/ds/data/946308.html

Nice. I would've expected it to come out late April/early May (Not that I'm complaining)

I'm neutral to Charon, but Looker?

I am leaning towards buying this game, but if I do I will be breaking tradition. Platinum follows the pattern of Yellow/Crystal/Emerald, but the last time I owned one was Yellow. The new content looks to be worth it, but I don't know if I'm going to spring for it. It will come down to whim.

Sounds interesting. Perhaps I'll buy it once it's released in Australia.
