What's the difference between Pokemon Pearl and Diamond?

I'm going to go buy Pokemon Diamond, but I was wondering if Pearl is better, or what the difference is.|||Check this out, maybe it helps: http://www.serebii.net/diamondpearl/excl鈥?/a>|||If you've heard that Pokemon Diamond is the boy version and Pokemon Pearl is the girl version, the people who said that are wrong. Example; I have pearl, and the ledgendary is Palkia(on front of the case)


The Diamond ledgendary is Diagla(again see pokemon case)


Also, you can get Murkrow and Honchkrow only in pokemon diamond. In Pokemon pearl, you can get Misdreavus and Mismagius. There are more that you can get, but i only gave those two examples because you can get them without the National Pokedex


Hope i helped and good luck!|||The only main difference is that there are some pokemon in Diamond that you can't catch in Pearl and vice-versa. Also, the legendary is different; in Pearl it is Palkia and in Diamond it is Dialga. Neither game is better than the other, there are just SOME different pokemon, but they are mostly the same.





I hope this helps!|||Diamond and Pearl are the same, story wise, only in the fact that it has version exclusive Pok茅mon.





By that I mean that some Pok茅mon can be found in Diamond that cannot be found in Pearl and vise versa.





The box art should also tell you which legendary Pok茅mon is available to you during game play; Palkia for Pearl and Dialga for Diamond.|||on diamond you get dialga, which is a steel dragon, its special move is roar of time, however you have to recharge next turn, on pearl its palkia, a water dragon, its special move is spacial rend which is very powerful and you don't have to recharge, i prefer dialga so i got diamond because steel is strong against water, have a look on youtube and on google to have a look at dialga and palkia. my opinion is to get diamond, there are also some minor changes as well such as on diamond you get stunky which evolves into skuntank and on pearl you get glameow which evolves into purugly, on diamond you get mime.jr, which evolves into the obvious, mr. mime, on pearl you get bonsly, which evolves into sudowoodo. enjoy AND PLAESE READ THROUGH|||Theres some differentces.Like you can get some pokemon in one game but cant get then in the other.Or the chances to get an item.One has a bigger chance.Or 1 game has a bigger chance to get a pokemon.The last differnce is in pearl u can get palkia and in diamond u cant.And in diamond u can get dialaga and in pearl u cant get dialaga.|||the difference between the two is how often pokemon appear.


Also some pokemon appear in pokemon diamond which do not appear in pokemon pearl example: Scyher


Same goes for Pearl ex: bagon cannot be found in pokemon diamond... hope I helped|||The differance between Pokemon Dimond and Pearl is some of the pokemon are different, the rest is the same. If you want to see the differences in more detail go to psypokes.|||There are different pokemon that can be caught in each game. Pearl has Palkia but, diamond has Dialga. There are others too.|||The oly difference is that some of the pokemon can only be caught on each game. For example; Dialga for Diamond, and Palkia for pearl!|||theres the different pokedex entries, palkia/dialga nd obtainable pokemon exclusive 4 both versons: IE, Mime jr and bonsly|||The only difference is SOME of the Pokemon that can be found in the games.
