Previously, Nintendo announced that the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl would take place in the newly devised setting of “Shinou Country” and offer players the choice between a male and female character.
Now Nintendo has released more information on the new Pokémon game.
The world you play in now changes the weather (night, day, rainy, etc.) based on the time of day.
Several screenshots that were released show the world cycling from a bright morning scene to a dimly lit night scene. Nintendo is going back to the pokemon Crystal way of finding pokemon and when the evolve, by basing it on the time of day (or night).
Also, some of the Pokémon will be visually distinct males and females. Examples were given on how they might look different, like spots on the wings of a Butterfree and the size of Scizor’s abdomen.
The Pokédex has been rebuild to look like a DS. The interface will be touchable and allow you to move through lists and find pokemon more quickly (in previous games, it took extremely long to go through the lists and searching was slow)
The new Pokémon game will feature the “Pokémon watch”. The item is upgradeable and will steadily gain features throughout the game. Its display will always be shown in the lower screen, allowing players to check it at any time. In addition to showing the time, the watch will have a calculator, a monitor that lets players check up on Pokémon being raised at breeding centers, and a function that automatically calculates the effect of one type of Pokémon’s techniques on other types.

Hmm…I’ve always thought Crystal was better then the newer Ruby, Sapphire, etc. It’s good to hear they’re going back to that sort of game. Oh yeah, they better bring that radio show on crystal, it was that one that was always on at 6:00. Where you answered questions and won stuff..good times, good times. My version of Crystal is all screwed up now, i did the duplicate Pokemon hack, and everything, EVERYTHING, is screwed up. ;_;
what are you smoking? emerald/ruby/sapphire is the best! I have all 300 pokemon. my favorite is
dragonite:presim berry

I need garchomp
Nick turnback cave is in the path between Vielstone and Valor Lakefront It is hard. Bring Defog and rock climb. people say the legends are hard to catch I caught each one in 3 days EASY.
Uxies yawn:D. Back to the cave in order to get to him you go through any door at first. Count the # of rocks in the room. Now this is confusing. Start from the left door and go clockwise and when you reach the number go through that door. When you reach the pillar multiply the #’s and count.
Say you count 5 rocks okay. Now from the left door is 1 top 2 right 3 bottom 4 left 5 so go through the left door. there are 3 pillars. Train one pokemon to Lv 80+ and use propels I got to him in 5 min. He was easy one dusk ball. But bring an Uxie use yawn after he is in red health he will fall asleep
An old shool catching style is to hold A as soon as giratina is inside, in the air.
He is Lv 70 and you need National dex
My fingers are tired
