A lot of users have been asking for it but no one seemed to create a proper thread that's worthy of being floated. I will take it upon myself to create a Pokemon Dimond/Pearl Sticky thread for the DS
KEEP ALL POKEMON DISCUSSION IN THIS THREAD! This includes ALL Pokemon Games. Period.Talk about whatever you want about pokemon in this thread, it is for multi-pokemon discussion from any pokemon game: meaning you can talk about pokemon stats, if you're going to purchase the new games, if you require help in the game, your favorite pokemon, your pokemon team, pokemon rangers, etc.
ALL other pokemon thread as of now will be locked if seen by a moderator. I implore you, DO not resurface any pokemon threads or else you will be moderated for disruptive posting. Also since this is the official discussion therad, ALL other pokemon threads are NOT needed so DO NOT create anymore. If you do you WILL face moderation. If users create other pokemon threads please report them for spamming or not reading the sticky or belongs in the sticky thread...something along those lines.
Now if you don't know about Pokemon, you've probably been on the wrong planet for the past few years...Welcome to Earth :P

Here's some vital information about the games compliments of serebii.net. Pay special attention to the highlighted areas.
Pokémon Diamond & Pearl are fourth Generation of Pokémon games. Having come out for the new Nintendo system, the Nintendo DS, Diamond & Pearl makes use of the DS's many functions including TouchScreen and WiFi. Diamond & Pearl also brings back many features from Gold & Silver that have since been removed.
Bringing 107 New Pokémon into the mix, bringing us to a total of 493 Pokémon, including many evolutions of old Pokémon, Diamond & Pearl completely overhauls the battling system. No longer are move's stats based on its type , but rather each move is individually allocated being Physical or Special.
Diamond & Pearl are set in the far off land of Sinnoh and have you playing as a Rookie trainer wanting to go through Sinnoh, beat the Gyms and become the best trainer. However, throughout your travels, you will encounter two rivals as well as the evil Team of the land; Team Galactic, whom are bent on obtaining the special legendary of your version. Diamond & Pearl has over 400 Pokémon obtainable within it, making it the biggest Pokémon game to date. There are many methods to find the Pokémon in the game; Inserting your GBA Game in for Wild Pokémon, Swarms, The PokéRadar and the Pokémon Mansion. However, this is not all as you are capable of transferring your teams from your GBA Versions through Pal Park, this is however one-way.
Diamond & Pearl also brings a whole new thing into the Pokémon World; online battling & trading. Using the critically acclaimed Nintendo WiFi Connection, you are capable of sharing Friend Codes with your friends and battling with them. You can also trade with them across the WiFi Connection. Diamond & Pearl also have a Trading Station that allows you to put up a Pokémon that you have, state what you want and have someone trade it with you. A very efficient system indeed.
Diamond & Pearl keeps all of the functions the games have had in the last Generation as well as introducing some new ones and reintroducing the Time Based events. It has a cool feature called the Pokétch that allows you to keep up to date with all your goings on including Captures, Breeding, and he location of the fleeing legends.
Thank you :) *flashes Master Ball*
