I have had the game for four months and beaten it. Oh... the English Game? Nope getting it next week so that I can do the Starter Cheat with my Sister.
Has anyone here actually got the game yet? I'm not gonna release the way how I got it, but I have the game right here, but i'm not gonna play it till tommorow morning because I gotta go to bed now. I'll see if I can post some things about it tommorow morning.

...Mind PMing me your secret methods?
And unfortunately, I haven't gotten mine yet. Not only is it still 10 p.m. Saturday here, but the only store in town that took reservations doesn't open until noon on Sundays. >_<
EDIT: Starter cheat?
I think he is talking about where you play both versions, but you use one version to get a starter Pokemon, trade it over to the other version, and then restart it, and keep repeating so that you can have at least one of each of the starter Pokemon. That is what I always do when a new version comes out. I hope to have my games tomorrow, if the stores actually have/sell them tomorrow like they are supposed to.

I preordered mine from Gamestop, and they tend to follow street dates very strictly.
Wal-Mart or Target are most likely to break the dates.
My Target never breaks street dates sadly. Gamestop did in the past, I try not to shop there though so I don't know if they still do.
Ethier way I don't have the game yet. I'll pick it up sometime tommorow morning.
CHOMP~
I don't have my game as of yet, but I should have Diamoned by the end of today if all goes according to plan... Meh I well wait until May 5th to get Pearl.....

Who the fuck wastes money on both versions? Go on message, ask for Pearl pokemon and trade your diamond pokemon. Congrats, you just saved thirty-five dollars.
Why buy one! When you can buy 2 at twice the price!
You're practically PAYING For De ja vu!
Well, I'm playing the game right now (I got Pearl and Diamond, but i'm playing Pearl and my Brother's playing Diamond) Currently I have 3 level 12's (Abra, the water starter (forgot his name), and a Shinx or something)
So far it's pretty fun.
I've been playing the game for a couple hours this morning. Dimond version. I took the fire starter because he's a monkey : ) Just got the first badge which should be easy for anyone because water and grass > rock. The fire starter also get a fighting move at level 14 when he evolves.
CHOMP~
Got Pearl this morning. (The store opened an hour early, hooray!) Working toward Gym #1; currently have a Lv. 12 Chimchar and a Lv. 9 Shinx. And every time I encounter a wild Pokemon now, it's another Shinx... o_0
I've noticed that looking at surrounding objects while walking/running hurts my eyes. It seems like the frame rate is a little low... If I look directly at my character, though, there's not a problem.
This is going to take some getting used to.
got my copy of diamond this morning. currently working towards gym #1 also.
I got it a few hours ago, and I'm working my way to the third city and the first badge. I've got a level 7 Chimchar, a level 6 Turtwig, a level 5 Starly, a level 4 Shinx, and a level 3 Manaphy.
I'm liking the graphics - they fit the game well - but the music seems odd. It'll take a bit of getting used to, I suppose.
Man, Roark is easy to beat! I took her out with a couple of stallers (for Potion healing) and a level 9 Machop. At least, it was level 9 when the battle began... heh. More like 12, now.
As for the music, it may have something to do with the new composer. Hitomi Sato joined Junichi Masuda and Go Ichinose for DP, so perhaps that new influence changed things a bit.
Hey, Roark has long hair. I call 'em like I see 'em.
And who wants you to know they still exist? Why, our little Zubat friends, of course! *grits teeth*
Let me tell you...
I had Diamond reserved for the past five months. Now, I work night shifts. Saturday nights are my hardest nights, because I work 7PM to 7AM. This Saturday, I had a cold, so my 12-hour shift was a monster. Not a cute monster like a Bulbasaur or a Charmander, but a hideous one like Groudon.
Anyway, my game store was opening at eight this morning, it was on my way home, so I decided to stop there on the way. I waited with the crowd and finally got the game.
I just started playing it, and I couldn't believe my luck. On my very first try, my starter (I chose Piplup) was a female. I haven't gotten very far into the game at all, but I like it so far.
I intend to get a Wii eventually, by the way. Anyone who wants to trade later, look me up.
I got my Diamond! I'm only in Sandgem now (we decided to eat out), but I love my Piplup! I called him Kai and he's going to be to best Empoleon!
And the battle animations and sounds are awesome. I LOVE this game.

I really could never see how restarting and trading to get all three starters was a "cheat". More of a strategy or a trick if you didn't have access to regular trading.
I'm not going to bother with this for 4th generation, since we have a wireless router and I should be easily able to trade for anything I can't get on one save (ESPECIALLY starters).
Release date here in Oz is 1st June - my son's getting Diamond, so I'm getting Pearl. Does anyone yet know if Australia is a seperate region from the USA for DP purposes?

*RAISES HAND*Originally Posted by Topic title
Me and my Dad went to Target yesterday morning, and we got "Diamond" (which I'm playing), "Pearl" (which my Dad is playing), and the "Nintendo Power" guide book. Unfortunately, we discovered too late that there's a SEPARATE book that contains all the Pokedex data and stuff! (My Dad said that the clerk asked "which one" in relation to the book, but we took for granted the belief that "NP" had only one.) So now if we want a hard copy of Pokedex data, we're gonna have to get the other book (if we can find it). It's "Gold" and "Silver" all over again!
$$$ THE COW SEZ "MOO"! $$$
*AHEM*
Now that rant's outta the way, I'd like to say me and Dad are lovin' the game. I've reached Jubilife City (with my current team of Piplup, Bidoof, Starly, and Shinx)...my Dad's a little ahead of me, and he's (off the top of my head) currently using Chimchar, Bidoof, Starly, Shinx, Kricketot, and Abra.

I went to K-mart after I got off of work at 2:00 yesterday, they didn't have it. So I made the trek out to Annapolis, about a 20-minute drive from work, and it was worth it, first store I walked in to (Best Buy) had it. I've been playing pretty much non-stop. Now on my way to Hearthome with two badges and Prinplup, Budew, Bibarel, Geodude, Zubat, and Staravia in tow.

Oh hey found something interesting, you can go up and click on the Globe at the GTS place and Register your location as well as see locations of your friends, which I guess you get from trading or battling people.
I'm waiting for my copy to make it's way over to the UK.

I got... both!? What the f**k?
...
Oh, well. I ain't complaining!
(hordes games)
"Myyyyyy precccccioussssssss..."
I still can't find the third gym leader! ARGH
Is the third Gym leader the one in the Grass Gym?
So, I'm a poor high school student who doesn't get much money. To save on gaming costs, I bought a Supercard for my DS.
I downloaded Diamond. Only to find it's in Japanese. While I'm proficient in Japanese, apparently I am not nearly proficient enough to be able to play it well, so it's mainly trial and error here.
So I'm using this as a temporary file until someone has the game up for download in English. But until then, my friend code is 1976 6636 0323. I started with a Pocchama (The penguin, can't recall the English name off the top of my head) and it's currently level 18, having evolved to Pottaishi.
I'll battle anyone who feels like it, no matter their levels or badges, but I'm currently in the forest on my way to Hakutai, so it may be a bit.
And I'll start using the english names for towns and pokemon when I get the game in English so I can learn them.

I would love to trade and battle with yahs!! ^_^
If you want to set up a time/date to do anything... (BTW: That misdreveas sounds wonderful! XD) just PM me for my AIM name or just to set something up.
My friend code is: 3265 1562 0792
Currently my team is as follows ( I haven't beaten the 2nd gym leader yet)
I have six pokemon, the lowest being a level 15 and the highest being 18.

Oh man, I got my copy of Diamond yesterday (screw the UK release, I want my pokemons now), things got so much more confusing after RBY with items and genders and natures and uuhh.. I just catch anything and be happy with it. If I was a bloody stupid beaver thing, I'm just gonna go and catch one!
Just onto the second gym now, my current team is my penguin at his second evolution, stupid beaver thing, electric cat thing, bird thing, GEODUDE AND ZUBAT! YAY FOR 1ST GEN POKEYS I have a few more things, but I'm just trying to make a strong enough team at the moment, then I'll worry about leveling up everyone else.

heh, i finally beat the third gym. My team is
Lvl 31 Kadabara
Lvl 28 Luxio
lvl 27 Prinplup
lvl 29 Machoke
I also have Chancey's baby form in my PC
I got Diamond a few days ago. I just defeated the grass-type gym leader. My team right now is:
Level 21 Piplup
Level 22 Staravia
Level 17 Pachirisu
Level 17 Beautifly
Level 16 Roselia
You evolved your Budew? Any tips on raising its Happiness Level? I haven't tried anything with my Budew yet.
Hey, has anyone found a fossil and revived their version-exclusive Pokemon? Because I just now revived my Cranidos!
I beat the second gym although I had to restart once (darn Roserado). Only my Cranidos is at level 20 right now, so I'm training some of my recently caught Pokemon.
By the way, Klutz sucks. Really sucks.

Nope, haven't found the fossil yet. I'm too busy working through the game. ^_^;
Right now I'm in the third (well, technically the fourth Gym, I suppose), trying to get to Maylene. Current team is as follows:
Misdreavus Lv. 22 Female
Bronzor Lv. 22 Genderless
Machop Lv. 21 Male
Budew Lv. 23 Male
Monferno Lv. 23 Male
Staravia Lv. 24 Female
Obviously, this is just an in-game team; I'd never put Machop and Monferno in the same lineup for competitive battling. Psychics and Flyers shatter me right now.
Apparently, the English ROMs don't get along well with Supercards. I deleted the Japanese version to make room for it in English, too, so. Uh, just ignore everything I said before, really.
