Item Description

Somewhere beneath Sinnoh lies a place where gravity bends, waterfalls run sideways and paths hang upside down in empty space. The Distortion World is the signature addition of Pokémon Platinum Version, Game Freak's 2008 expanded take on Diamond and Pearl, and it puts the legendary Giratina, in its serpentine Origin Forme, at the center of a reworked story. Sinnoh was already a rich region; Platinum is where it got the treatment it deserved.

The journey keeps the classic structure of eight Gyms, an Elite Four and Champion Cynthia, but much of the route between them has been reworked. Team Galactic's leader Cyrus is still chasing a new world built on the power of Dialga and Palkia, and new figures sharpen the plot, including Galactic scientist Charon and the International Police detective Looker, making his first appearance in the series. The confrontation at Spear Pillar takes a different turn when Giratina emerges, and the trip into the Distortion World that follows, with its floating platforms and shifting perspective, felt unlike anything Pokémon had tried before.

Platinum also fixed many of the frustrations of Diamond and Pearl. Battles move faster, the Sinnoh Pokédex grows to include many more species during the main adventure, so your team can be far more varied, and the snowbound north and familiar towns get new touches throughout. After the credits, the Battle Frontier opens with five facilities, including the Battle Factory with its rental Pokémon and the Battle Arcade with its roulette board, giving competitive players a demanding endgame that rewards real team-building skill.

Platinum stands at the center of Generation IV for many fans, and it carries one advantage the later remakes do not: Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl were built on the original Diamond and Pearl, so the Distortion World, Platinum's story changes and its Battle Frontier live only here. If you want Sinnoh at its most complete, with Giratina's strange dimension and the Frontier's toughest challenges, this DS cartridge is where to find it.
