    Who do you consider to be the face of D/P?
    Is it Dialga, Palkia, Infernape, Empoleon or any other pokemon?

    I'm gonna say Lucario as it was brought out in alot of the merchandising when it was first released.
     
    Um...Diagla and Palkia are each represented in their own games. The most important overall is clearly Arceus.
     
    WHat I'm saying is, who do you think represents D/P, in other words when you think of D/P who do you think of?
     
    I would have to agree with you, McDukey.
    It seems that Nintendo and Gamefeak have gone to great lengths to put Lucario anywhere it can. Lucario seems to represent the fourth generation as a whole.
    (It was the first fourth generation Pokémon we knew about.)

    Then again, the first third generation Pokémon we knew about were like Azurill, Wailmer, and Kecleon, however; they don't represent Ruby and Sapphire at all!

    I suppose it's really a "in the eye of the beholder" type of thing.
     
    I would have to say Dialga because i think diamond sold more than pearl. People probably just looked at the covers and saw Dialga looked cooler or something. meh something like that
     
    Lucario, I agree. It's so 4th generation-styled...

    I thought Munchlax and Bonsly were the first 4th gen pokes to be seen...
     
    It definitely cant be Arceus or Shaymin, because people who dont go on pokemon forums will never know who Arceus and Shaymin are.
    So its just not smart to think of Arceus and Shaymin as the face of D/P.

    Id think Lucario as well.
     
    Ugh, I hate Lucario. Though they do have nice hips.
    I think the face is Garantina
    I wouldn't say I hate Lucario, but Gallade was much more successful IMO.
     
    Arceus is a joke.
    "A goat god sounds nice, haha"
    NO, Arceus should never be the face of D/P/P.

    Lucario is garbage as a face.
    The only reason why its suggested
    is because he is in a movie
    and because it was the 4st fourth gen
    we learned about.

    Dialga for Diamond.
    Palkia for Pearl.
    Giratina for Platinum.
    Simple, hmm?



     
    Im really going to have to say Lucario even though I dont like it. Another posssibility can be Magmortar and Elelectivire, or Weavile.
     
    The obvious face of D/P is clearly Bidoof.

    Who else has stirred such controversy?

    The one pokemon i can safely say we all hate... it might work ^-^

    Lucario is the obvious choice due to reasons previously said
     
    Lucario is the face of Diamon/Pearl to me. It's the first Pokemon that pops into my head when someone mentions the games.
     
    Dialga for Diamond, Palkia for Pearl. Giratina for Platinum.

    Lucario for the whole 4th gen, considering it's in Brawl and had it's own movie.
