Ok so I have played platinum through and through, but I still feel like I'm missing out by not playing the original games.

I need a new game for trades as I'm going to stop using heart gold for battles and wait for an english release, so I've decided to just go with either diamond or pearl and kill two birds with one stone. This is just a general poll + any opinions, I'm not asking what game is better, just what game y'all would like me to use (if you even care). Basically a community coin flip (except it's not a 50/50 chance)

Thanks

It's really simple as a decision. If you like the version exclusives in Diamond more, choose Diamond. Same for Pearl. They're basically the same.

I skipped both as well and got Platinum but I won't pick them up because I've been told Platinum is just the upgraded version anyway. I mean you got the whole Distortion World + everything else =p

It doesn't matter one bit even though Scyther and Larvitar makes Diamond my favored version.

Well it all depends on which pokemon you want. Diamond and Pearl have pokemon in them that are exclusive to their version.

If you click this link and scroll down you can see which pokemon are exclusive to which game. Hopefully this makes your decision easy for you.

The only reason you need them is if you want Skuntank/Honchkrow(Diamond), or Purugly/Misdreavus(Pearl)
