Generally I like the Diamond Pokemon better.save for Slowpoke... I like him cause he is cuteThe biggest issue with diamond is that if you don't chose a fire starter, there is only Ponyta for a fire later in the game... urg

I was originally trying to decide which version to get, Diamond or Pearl, but I remembered that eventually the 3rd version will come along, usually with extra features and such. Might as well just wait a few months for that one instead of trying to decide between D/P.But back on topic, I'd say that Pearl seems to be better.

dialga is awesome, but ive always preferred pearl over diamond. i'm not sure why, but id always debate with my sister whether which one was better and we'd end up "but diamond's more fun"/"pearl sounds cooler" etc. exclusive pokemon are better in diamond, though.

I know Tyrantar has his weaknesses, but come on, he just owns. Diamond gets my vote. Oh, and Scizor is sweet, too.

Pokemon Pearl all the way.Palkia is just far too deadly in comparison to Dialga. Especially when played right in the uber metagame.

Diamond, definatly. For one it's Legendary is awesome...way better then Pearl. And outta the two, Diamond seems like the more 'manly' one...Pearl's case is all Pink, and it's named PEARL. lol.

There's barely no difference between the two versions this generation (not even different teams. The only thing that's different is a bit of dialouge (exchange all "Palkia" references to "Dialga") and just a few exclusives. With the GTS and Pal Park it's much easier to get the exclusives as well. I'll have to say Pearl because I like Palkia better than Dialga (Spacial Rend > Roar of Time).

Post only if you have a good reason to prefer one over the other or you'll be warned. Otherwise, just vote in the poll.There have been too many threads about which version is better. In short the two games are identical with a few differences in terms of catchable pokemons so that there is no better game, it's just a matter of personal preference.Diamond Exclusive Pokemons

Please vote for your favourite game based on the differences mentioned above. If you intend to reply, make sure to provide a solid reason to your choice or points will be removed. Especially posts like "I choose Diamond" or "Diamond because Dialga is cooler" should be avoided for your own good. And don't discuss anything else! General discussions and emulation related questions have their respective threads (read the announcement).-----------------------------Note: I closed all previous Diamond vs Pearl for they all lack basis for comparison and were just poste for GPs purposes.Credits: pictures from www.serebii.net

I perfer Diamond bc the characters in Peral look too cartoony and represent a step backwards in the series.
