4th Gen Official Pokémon Diamond/Pearl Discussion Thread

[tyranisneasel]

Well, I've been thinking, and I want a Dark, Psychic, or Steel gym for them 6th. (Like Sabrina) And I also think that the Rival should be, as in R/S/E, the other character.

Hey everyone, Serebii just posted the "legendaries" of D/P, and possibly the three starters! However, the pictures aren't very clear.

 

[Neo Umbreon]

They don't even look like Pokemon, but I like the White one.

 

[Aether]

ummm... weve known that for a while

hehe... sorry about that one, im still new and i thought i should help get things out. (I did'nt see much about that info on the thread anyway) and if it was well, let me be banished to the pokemon tower for eternity-_-;

When does Coro Coro releases there next Magazine. I wonder how those unrevealed Pokemon look like

:t093:~*!*~Queen Boo~*!*~

 

[Pokemanz]

I believe Coro Coro will reveal the starters in the next magazine. It is coming out on the 15th of this month!

 

[Aether]

sweet! I can't wait! I just hope the starters are original.

...I didn't see anything that said those three were the starters...

And since we now know that online trading will be available, I'll bring this back up; are we going to set up a special forum on here to set up trades?

 

[Pokemanz]

That sounds like a cool idea!

 

[Neo Umbreon]

Yeah but how woould you do it?

 

[Forci Stikane]

Just make a new forum like was done to separate all the D/P discussions from the other DS games...

Or just PM each other to death.

 

[Latias Gurl]

I'm glad that Diamond and Pearl are going to have the Day-Night cycle again. I loved that in Pokemon Crystal.

 

[Neo Umbreon]

I can't wait for that either. I wonder what Pokemon are going to be out only at night.

 

[Raichu_tamer]

That was fun... I remember I caught a Hoothoot early on in Silver, and I had it til the end of the game as a Noctowl! It was a lot better than I thought it would be.

I thought of some new Psyhic attacks for the game ^^

1) time freeze - renders everyone on the pitch (apart from the pokemon who cast it) to be immoblized for 3-4 turns and during those turns the pokemon who cast it could still use its attacks. But gets a boost from the 'psyhic' energy.

2) Telepathy - A pokemon can get into the mind of another and chose which attack to use and on which oppenet, maybe even u could attack from there. The body of the pokemon is vulnerable though

3) Telekinis (Sp) - When a pokemon is using an attack like 'Fire Blast' the pshyic pokemon can use this to send it right back and do some damage.

4) Predictions - Wouldnt it be cool if a pshic pokemon could see what would happen like 3 turns in advance but it has a backfire actions can change it, and the 'future' it saw may not come true.

Just some thoughts really.

First one: No, I don't think so. That's too powerful.

Second one: ...That could work, I guess...but maybe make it just that turn and at random instead of you being able to pick which one (like when your pokemon won't listen to you).

Third one: Like Mirror Coat, you mean? Or actually matching the type of the attack?

Fourth one: Nah...
