Pokemon Platinum is the latest in the Pokemon franchise for the Nintendo hand-held consoles and I recommend that the people of the UK should get this title for Nintendo DS.

Play a new game of Pokemon with all-new buildings, all-new Pokemon, all-new items and all-new Gym features in this all-new version of Pokemon where you battle your way to be the greatest Pokemon master ever!!!

There are a few new characters: Shymian (sky form), Garitina (origin form) and there are five new forms of Rotom. Gyms such as Eterna city Gym and Veilstone city Gym have all new features. Eterna has a new turntable that spins you to a trainer then you have to beat the trainer to move on to the Gym leader, while at Veilstone you have to hit some punch bags, then they move and hit tyres and you keep on doing that whilst battling trainers to get to the Gym leader.


Compared to Pokemon Pearl and Diamond, Pokemon Platinum has much better value than either of them, and it’s better than the two put together. I think Pokemon Platinum is so good because you get new pokemon, you have a new floor at the department store in Veilstone city were you can buy poffins, berries, lava cookies and rage candy bars.

Pokemon Platinum has given me more enjoyment than Pearl because it has new buildings, new people, new places and new brilliant graphics. I think actually walking with your choice of pokemon would make Pokemon Platinum a better game and I don’t like the fact that you can’t do that here.

I also think Nintendo could make this a better game by putting all new pokemon instead of old sinnoh pokemon, new Gym leaders, more new places and of course a new region.

Note that on the right you can see the characters Dawn and Lucas, while below-right is Garitina in altered form.
