Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl

[Buzzard]

Well, I just got Diamond lst night. I haven't had more than five minutes to play, but I chose the penguin as my starter and I think it's awesome. It might just top GSC in execution. Who else has it?

[Armchair]

I got Pearl, Turtwig.

[Bluejay]

I've got neither...... nor can I afford either.... not sure i wanted eitherm but I am feeling that all too familiar pull of the pokemon now.  Damn cravings.

[Mage]

Diamond, Turtwig.

I'm impressed so far, the elemental variety early on means you've got some interesting choices before you even find the first Gym Leader. Plus the whole global trade concept is a fascinating concept(wish I could exploit it sometimes, downside of living out in nowhereland).

[Buzzard]

I would have gotten Pearl for the EVA looking Ledgendary, but I promised my friend I'd get Diamond so we could play together.

What how do you get both. Lucky.

[ahnna]

oh Shop

[Bluejay]

So is it still a pressing need to "Gotta catch em all!"? or has it subsided to more of a "Catch whatever you can, the rest are fine"

[Buzzard]

Well, for me it's a "catch whatever, you'll figure it out in a year or two like you did with Gen1/Gen2.

[Vito]

I got Diamond and Chimchar because that is a badass name and a fire monkey is too cool.

[Bluejay]

Gots me Diamond today and Puplip cause it's a pengy.

EDIT: I caught a Green Geodude on my way to the first gym.

I hate you so much. I have yet to see a shiny pokemon.

[Bluejay]

Well you see, the secret is... acualy I just got lucky

Nifty little site

EDIT!!

Shouldn't your character be wanted by the poke-police or something, I mean seriously, you're leaving a trail of half-dead pokemon in your wake wherever you go, ESPECIALLY when you're leveling; most are burned, or paralysed, or poisoned, or whatever... I mean, seriously, you offer them NO care after beating the living hell out of them, you leave them wounded in the wild, to die.

[Blazeman]

Simple: Self-defense. They jumped you, you had to beat them back to save your own hide.

Anyway, Diamond Version, started with Chimchar as well. If there's anything I don't like, it's having to go second with an attack that doesn't even cut a quarter of the opponent's HP.
