As with the original games Shining Pearl is set in the fictional region of Sinnoh, an island based on the Japanese island of Hokkaido.
Rich in nature, with Mount Coronet towering at its heart, Sinnoh is a land of many myths passed down through the ages. A famous professor Rowan in the field of Pokemon Evolution recruits you to travel across the Sinnoh region to complete an encyclopedic record of Pokemon known as a Pokedex.
Before you set off on your journey, you will choose Turtwig, Chimchar, or Piplup to be your first partner Pokemon. As you travel across Sinnoh filling out your Pokedex, you will challenge the strongest Pokemon Trainers in each town. For example, Melee and Brawl are the same game but it doesn't make Brawl such a bad game in comparison with Melee. This simply means that if you weren't a fan of Melee, the chances are that you won't like Brawl either.
This is also true for the Pokemon series — it's nearly the same game for every version but it's still one of the most fun and entertaining games available.
To be completely honest, the Pokemon general gameplay is among the best in the RPG sector. While my previous statements will make many people cringe, I have to say that the game format is a homerun in my opinion —it hits home, so to speak.
With that being said, while I believe that the gameplay for the fourth generation of Pokemon games was great, there was still plenty of room for improvement.
In my opinion, the designers of the second generation were clever in allowing gamers to return to Kanto after defeating the Elite Four — or more appropriately, you have to enter Kanto in order to battle it out with the Elite Four but it's a technicality that shouldn't count. After the release of Pokemon's third generation, the ability to go back and forth between two regions was removed, a trend of disappointment that appears to continue into the fourth generation.
At first, such ability can be re-launched in the DS but it wasn't so although the designers were able to bridge the gap between the GBA and DS games.
The absence of the ability to bring them back — think of a time machine feature — as is the case of the trades between the first and second generation is but a minor setback. The actual battling system is as great as can be. The special physical split means that there are more pocket monsters that can be successfully used in battles, such as Gyarados being able to use a Water Type move without appearing like a sucker. While I may sound too excited about it, I want to emphasize that it's a significant improvement.
All in all, the Diamond and Pearl gameplays are exactly right up the Pokemon fans' alley including the Pokemon characters, the Fights, the Items, and the Run options.
But since there are slight twists to the gameplay, an older franchise gets a breath of new life in it. Do I honestly believe that the music and sound effects of the Diamond version are better than its gameplay — or for that matter, even good? Sadly, no, I don't. But that's not such a bad thing at all where I'm concerned especially since, for the first time, I can't care less about the music and sound effects in a Pokemon game.
While the soundtrack has a nostalgic appeal about it, I believe that it's akin to nails on a chalkboard — grating on the ears and, thus, an unnecessary addition to a great game. Even the improved timbre of the music didn't add value to the game although it also didn't hurt its appeal. This is also true for the Pokemon cries — these are better on the ears but it isn't a major selling point. Let's be upfront about it.
The Pokemon games aren't exactly known for their great graphics, even for the sequels. But when you consider the big improvement for the graphics on the sprites since their introduction in the Japanese original Green version, you will agree that the quality of the graphics is becoming better with each sequel. If you want to combine the whole Pokemon battle experience with world-class graphics, you should get a Wii and a Battle Revolution app — and voila!
You will find a more suitable game for your needs. Except for the battle scenes, the Pokemon world is comparatively mediocre although emphasis must be made that it's not bad, just on the average side. I've always believed that sub-par graphics will not lessen the level of enjoyment of the game provided that you can still see on the screen what you're doing and what you should be doing — and it's the case with Diamond Pokemon.
You will not even be thinking about the quality of the graphics while playing the game! You will instead be focused on becoming a Pokemon Champion.
Factors in the success rate of capture include the HP of the target Pokemon and the strength of the Poke Ball used. Also, inflicting certain status effects such as sleep or paralysis adds a multiplier to the capture rate, making it easier to capture wild Pokemon.
