Becauce in platinum you can get palkia (which you can only get in pearl) and dialga (which you can only get in diamond) and giritina. And you can also go underground and play capture the flag and make secret bases. those are not half of the reasons platinum is just better

The storyline is slightly different. Being that the climate has changed to being a lot colder. To suit this, your player is dressed in warmer clothing. There's more to the story, in that the Reverse World is included.

Giratina is the main Pokemon to this game. There's probally more variety in the Pokemon you can catch. E.g, Pokemon that were exclusive to either Pearl or Diamond are more than likely both available in Platinum, just like in Emerald to Ruby and Sapphire.

You should get the game and see how it's changed. I don't own the game, but don't listen to anyone elses opinion, buy it and see.

I'd say B&W1 is currently the best main series Pokemon game as of yet. Shook up some of the standard elements in Pokemon games.
