The latest edition of CoroCoro magazine has confirmed the 3rd title in the D&P Pokemon generation, Pokemon Platinum.

According to Serebii.net, the obligatory 3rd installment in each Pokémon generation will be arriving in Japanese shores this autumn. Translated as Pokémon Platinum, it sees improvements and new forms in existing critters, including Giratina, Regigigas and Shaymin.

Rumours also suggest that there'll be a new look to the battle interface, alongside a Wi-Fi enabled underground section.

Thanks to Dark Snowman for the tip.

WiFi Underground would be awesome. I love the Sinnoh Underground Smilie

But you know what would be MORE awesome? CoOperative play/exploring!

Bring on the year 9001!

"CoOperative play/exploring!"

Second.
That would actualy be a significant new path for the series to trend, seeing as they are running out of minor changes elsewhere.

You mean like walking around together in the underground, but being able to do it anywhere in the game? Yeah, I've wanted that for ages. Would be amazing to travel around and battle together in co-op. Smilie

of course, the first thing that comes to my mind right after "diamond" and "pearl" is platinum, I so had my money on Jade or Onyx... oh well.

Gold/Silver/Platinum would have made more sense than Crystal too. Alas no legie Pokémon fit the bill for being Platinum coloured like Giratina sort of does.

Definitely shoulda been Opal. At least that isn't exactly unsuited to Giratina.

And yeah, I've wanted the CoOp thing for as long as I can remember. Nothing too huge, just 2-4 good friends travelling the region together, as is always implied by the anime, and some parts in games etc.

No need to post the same thing twice in two threads. :/

Did you ever get Diamond/Pearl? If you havn't got one of them yet, see if you can hold out for this. It'll be worth it. Many Pokemon whores like me however will get it anyway. Smilie

They ruined the naming pattern Smilie

There's a large part of me that doesn't want to get it just for that.

But the Pokemon whore part of me knows that I'll get it anyway.

Should've been Onyx, damnit, I like Onyx.

All ah needed was a brain jogger. Smilie I don't need a good memory! It's one of my endearing character traits!

Speaking of Pokémon, Onix is one of the lamest Pokémon ever made.

In the anime it's all like OSHI BROCK HAS AN ONIX! But really a Geodude is far more likely to pwn a Pikachu than an Onix, because in all the Pokémon games up until D/P/P, Onix was just a rock type, and Electric works perfectly fine against rock type, it just fails against Ground.

So really Ash's Pikachu shouldn't have had a problem beating Onix.

And that's my series inconsistency annoyance of the day.

Also, Pokémon Crystal didn't exactly work well with Gold/Silver. Not to mention Green doesn't work with Red/Blue/Yellow. There isn't a necessary pattern. It definitely worked well with R/S/E though.

I think I nearly cried when I opened Diamond and the cartridge wasn't coloured.

SERIOUSLY. WHAT THE FUCK! Smilie (I don't think I'm overreacting... it really is upsetting DSmilie

Actually, Onyx has always been Rock/Ground. I know, I've had one in pretty much every Red/Blue/Yellow/Gold team I've ever had. It was practically the only decent ground Pokemon I could have because I couldn't trade for Golem. Smilie

Those were the days...
