As Pokemon Diamond and Pearl near their Japanese release date of September 28th 2006, more facts about the upcoming DS series are revealed. The American or European release date for these games has not been formally announced and according to Nintendo we’ll just have to wait until they announce it, I’d count on it sometime in the first half of 2007. Anyway, let’s take a look at this news.
Attack overview:
* Every Move is one of three different categories or Attack Natures; Physical, Special and Other. Physical & Special attacks derive themselves from the Physical & Special stats respectively, while the Other category is used for the attacks that do not actually inflict damage.
* The Physical Attacks known so far are: Force Excert, Bone Rush, Poison Sting, Thunder Fang, Fire Fang, and Ice Fang.
* The Special Attacks known so far are: Discharge, Magical Leaf, and Swift which seems to still have it’s power halved by Reflect.
* The Other Attacks known so far are: Anticipate, Metal Sound, Sweet Kiss, Charm, GrassWhistle, Leech Seed, and Poison Barb.
Pokemon specific news:
* If Mime Jr. is attacked with an attack that is Super Effective, it’s damage is halved, and Mime Jr. also learns Reflect.
* Weavile has a new attack called Scheme, it greatly increases Weavile’s Special Attack.
* Lucario is a Fighting/Steel type Pokemon.
Aside from the above described attacks, there are more abilities listed here. If you want to see a complete list of so far shown attacks for Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, please visit Serebii.net’s new attacks page.
whats lucario?
u can get lucario (a legendary…sort of) by helping a person get thru a cave or somthing like that and if u have a free space in ure party he’ll give u a rioru egg. (pre-evolved form of lucario) if u dont have a free space u can come back wen u do and he’ll give it to u! to get rioru to evolve into lucario, make it love u and level it up during day and ta-da! itll evolve into lucario! (i saw from a walkthru that wen eggs hatch ther level 1 instead of 5)
to see ALL of the diamond/pearl pokemon go to serebii.net and go to a pokemon’s entry like roselia’s, and click on its evolved form and a new button for d/p pokemon will appear!
pokemon d/p should release in spring 2007. i no, its a long wait but it gives someone (like me) that doesnt have a ds a reason (and time) to get one.
i saw the evolved forms of the starters. its sad cause ALL the starters r cute (in ther 1st stage) , the grass 1 looks UGLY wen it evolves, the fire 1 looks WIERD wen it evolves, but the water 1 looks COOL so i suggest EVERYONE to start with pochama. (ive no clue if pochama is the english name)
this has list and pics of all the new pokemon in pearl and diamond
yeah i want to know about these things i am like pokemons biggest fan i have every game like wateva
Will pok’emon ruby and pearl ever come out on gameboySP??
I have to agree with yoyo (top) I want a list of all the pokemon too.
No most likely it will not come out for Advance or Sp
