    Within fourth generation, there are many astonishing moments throughout the games. The final showdown with Dialga in Diamond or Palkia in Pearl? Or was it the Kimono Girls when you arrived at Whirl Islands for Lugia and Bell Tower for Ho-Oh? Maybe it was some completely different scene. Which one did you enjoy the most?
     
    When Giratina appeared in Pokemon Platinum and dragged Cyrus into the Distortion World. The background music really fitted well too.
     
    I think there were quite a bit. My favorite would have had to have been when you go to Whirl Islands and the Kimono Girls do their little dance before you face Lugia. The scene where Cyrus gets dragged to the Distortion World is also pretty high up on my list as well.
     
    I personally thought that when the bomb exploded at the one of the lakes while you were in Canalave(?) and the panic/emotion present was really real to me.
     
    I liked Soul Silver's/Heart Gold's reworked Goldenrod City. I got to pretend I was a Rocket Grunt, if only for a little while... sigh. Also "Take those clothes off right this instant!" hahaha. Dark thoughts aside, I thought Pearl had some decent moments as well. Stopping team Galactic was about half the fun.
     
    THe fight with the Kimono Girls was really exciting, especially because it was back to back and there was some strategy involved. I lost a few times I think, haha. Was pretty hard when you couldn't heal your Pokemon in between and couldn't change the Pokemon in the front of your party to best suit the Kimono Girls' Pokemon.
     
    I think my favourite story moment of gen 4 was when Cyrus got dragged by Giratina to the Distortion World, and your character, alongside Cynthia, needed to close the portal, so they went to the Distortion World itself. It's one of the most HYPE moments of the game, since you're in a complete new world that doesn't obey to the rules of time and space. The battle between you and Cyrus in the Distortion World was pretty epic as well!
     
    I've noticed there aren't any cool plot moments in HGSS. The only one I can think of was the little Kimono Girls dance before you fight Lugia/Ho-Oh.
