One day, on your journey to a lake just outside of your town, you run into the famous Professor Rowan, who's only recently returned to the Sinnoh region after a four-year absence. Players create their trainer and their trainer's childhood friend, who's a friendly rival that wants to be an incredible Pokémon master as well. As in other Pokémon games, the people of the Sinnoh region love to capture, train, and battle their creatures, and your character is no different. Remakes of classic games originally released on the Nintendo DS in 2006, Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl brings players back to the Sinnoh region. POKÉMON BRILLIANT DIAMOND/SHINING PEARL is a title featuring two 2021-release games in the long-running monster-catching franchise. All and all these aren’t perfect games but they are still very enjoyable. You can catch everything else for a total of 493 Pokémon counting event Pokémon. This means that newer favorites like Yamper and Scorbunny are not in the games at the moment. The only bad thing about the games (and it doesn’t bother me) is the lack of Pokémon after 2006-07 which is when the original Diamond and Pearl came out. There’s the Ramanas Park where you can use Mysterious Shards found in the Grand Underground to encounter legendary Pokémon from the first 3 games. These games are so amazing and developer ILCA did an excellent job on the games. And the games reward you for playing Let’s Go Pikachu or Eevee and also Sword or Shield by giving you a free Mew and Jirachi early in the game. There is also a way to get the original games music if you want to listen to the old DS music. Champion Cynthia has a team of Pokémon that are all in their 80’s making her final team the strongest in the series and debunking the myth that the games are dumbed down and easy. And once you capture Giratina and Heatran you can also battle the Pokémon League at very high levels. Once you beat the game and have seen all of the Pokémon, there is a post game where you can battle the gym leaders at much higher levels. The Grand Underground fixed the issue of fire type Pokémon being scarce. They added a feature from the old DS games Heart Gold and Soul Silver where you can have your favorite Pokémon follow behind you. They also fixed the EXP Share issue where you don’t get as much experience points if you are at a higher level so it’s not as easy to over level like the other Switch Pokémon games. The games are mostly faithful remakes of the DS games Diamond and Pearl with some much needed improvements to the originals.

The games are very well made remakes despite what some critics and toxic Pokémon fans say.
