What is the diffrence between pokemon diamond and pokemon pearl?

Answer 1

Differences between Pokémon VersionsFor every pokémon game that was released, the games were released in pairs, with slight differences between the two. Almost everything in the games are exactly the same (as long as you are comparing games that belong to the same pair).

The main difference is the pokémon that are available for capture, most notably the pokémon on the cover art and title screen (in most games this is a unique legendary pokémon). There are about 20 pokémon in each version that aren't available for capture in the other. You'll have to trade between games to collect every pokémon available.

In most pokémon game pairs, there is a third version, which usually is an improvement over the previous two, and has features such as being able to catch the legendary pokémon of both of its predecessors. A list of Pokemon pairs with their third version is available in the related questions below.

A detailed guide on GameFAQs explaining the differences between Pokémon Diamond and Pearl is available in the related links below.
The difference is that there are some pokemons in pearl you can't get on diamond and in diamond you can't get in pearl.

AnswerSome Pokemon are different and in diamond you can catch dialga and pearl you can catch palkia they are two different Pokemon

The difference is that in pearl you can catch Palkia but not Dailga and the other way around for Pokemon Diamond

Answer 3

There aren't many, but I would recommend Pearl for it's tough Pokemon legend, Palkia! But the main differences are...

1. Different Pokemon appear at different times and places.
2. The legendary Pokemon at Spear Pillar is different. (Palkia for Pearl, Dialga for Diamond)

Hope this helps you!

Answer 5

In terms of generation, Diamond is generation 4, while Black is generation 5.

This means a new region and a whole new set of Pokemon.

Diamond is also different in the fact that you can see old Pokemon and new Pokemon throughout the game, while Black only lets you see Pokemon of the National Pokedex after you beat the Elite Four.

Black also has more 3D-ish graphics and a more visual battle system.

In other words, Diamond is old, and was released about 5 years ago, while Black is new and was released this year.

Answer 6

POKEMON PEARL HAS palkia AT SPEAR PILLAR, AND Pokemon diamond has dialga.
