Talk:Pokémon Platinum

Separating
Hello dear users.

I think it'll be best if we separate this game from D/P for the very simple reason that the game has serious plot changes.

The whole beginning is different, the gyms has been reordered and the main villain has changed. Not to mention the new map (Ruined World) and that Dialga and Palkia both appear before Giratina does.

The difference is bigger then comparing Crystal to S/G or Yellow to R/G/B.

Awaiting your response. I added a tag on the main game as well. DorTheGamer 20:21, 17 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree, with the changes in storyline (First pokemon on Rt201 rather than Verity lakefront) as well as obtains of pokemon (Rotom available after Gardenia rather than post Elite-4) Samdiatmh 04:10, 29 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, it looks like all we have to do is add the unique walkthrough pages for this game and modify the table of contents a bit. I assume all of the items and pokemon remain the same? -- 04:28, 29 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, but unlike yellow to blue, platinum has very different features, differet places for several pokemon, even different gym order. some pages can be COPIED from DP, but we shouldn't LINK to pages from DP because the "next" and "previous" pages might not be correct for platinum. --DorTheGamer 08:10, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * If it's just a matter of pages being out of order, there is no need to copy the whole guide. New additions are also fairly easy to handle.  I guess another question is, how much is the same? -- Prod (Talk) 21:56, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
