4th Gen Pocket Monsters Platinum speculation

Status
Not open for further replies.
On the first video here https://pokemon-safari.com/sitio/ I am disappointed. I did not see that lass trainer move. NOR DID I SEE Piplup move. What about the back sprites. Like Pikachu looks back. Piplup didn't do anything like that........ >__<??

:16:
 
I dunno if anyone made this speculation yet but I think my friend was telling me that he was looking up some Platinum stuff today and he said Volkner left the gym i dunno if it was true or i heard wrong.....
In D/P he was talking about taking on the E4 so maybe in Platinum he becomes champion like the way Wallace made the similar change from Gym leader to champion?
 
Yes im pretty sure volkern is leaving but i do not think he will run the elite four like in emerald i think he will be in charge of the new battle area but that is just me

At the time Platinum was first released, Serebii reported from blue skY that Volkner was no longer the Sunyshore Gym Leader. However, I haven't heard any additional news of his absence since.
 
The best thing about Pokémon Platinum is that you'll be able to capture the regis in the Snowpoint Temple, and the music is the same but a bit remixed. Also since the different formes are going to be in such as Giratina's Origin Forme and Shaymin's Sky Forme, Shaymin's Sky Forme will be a Grass/Flying type, which is pretty cool.

Actually it might not be snowpoint, although it looks like it... BTW nice pokeplush I can't get one... :( Oh and we're running out of things to speculate guys...

Unfortunately, you'll most likely need a Movie Regigigas if you want to obtain the Regis. But hopefully, they can remove this requirement for English versions of the game, due to the lack of events.

You guys are late to the video library party. It was news for hours now. :x

I have to ask, if it was news for hours, why do you wait until right after we find out about it to post?
 
This may be off topic, but what if the starters for a future game, could be a legendary pokemon, like you have zapdos, moltres and articuno, you could have three legendaries which somehow are in a 'baby' forme and then evolves or changes formes just like normal starters. then once you have beaten the elite four, you gain an item which lets you change the pokemon from one form to another, like shaymin is meant to be able to in platinum.

what do you guys think?

It is off topic. But honestly, it sounds a bit rediculous. Legendary pokemon are called legendary for a reason. If everyone could easily obtain one from the beginning, it loses all meaning. Also, no legendary pokemon evolve or have a pre evo. And if could change formes, the formes would be equally strong in different areas. Otherwise, everyone would use the stronger forme.
 
Yeah that kinda sounds... wrong. Does anyone here think that we will all have an even bigger pal pad? Since mine is so close to being full, it wasn't even hard, then it seems like a 20 capable wifi room will require more friend space...

Yeah, I really do hope that they will have a larger one. 20 just isn't enough for a bunch of people that trade and battle often.

I told you!! I knew only special characters have moving animation... But I'm quite sure in future generations all characters will have that feature...

I would have to say that they would most likely allow more names into the Pal Pad. It really isn't a problem for me though. I just delete the name once I finish trading/ battling/ whatever.
 
I've only traded between my best mate and my brother, and i prefer the pal pad small because then the friends on there are actual friends that you see often in real life or communicate regularly online or through wi-fi.
It just makes it more 'personal' as such and not random people that you quickly met and traded friend codes.

However, if your a highly social person, like you may well be, a larger pal pad may be useful, but if random battles are introduced, a larger pal pad may not be needed.

Well I may want to battle/trade someone again, so I really can't delete it... I can't wait for this game they should just hurry up we've seen enough footage to tell that it SHOULD be done. More useless news will be popping up next week sometime, so yay....
 
I'm just really waiting for the game to see if the speculation it right,
because the plot might be extremely simple, which would be very amusing but disapointing after reading this thread.
I just want the game.
Like now.
