Sorry for long rant: What doesn’t get talked about enough, is how D/P has a lack of ice types, too. And you could only get Weavile near the Elite 4. Abomasnow is actually good in DP because of lack of fire types and fire moves, as move tutors wasn’t a thing. I hate it when people said that Platinum isn’t all that different from Diamond and Pearl, when that is not even true. Not to mention they could have made Dialga and Palkia do more than just sitting in 1 location. Shadows of Almia, an underrated Pokemon game, has a great way to show Dialga messing with Time, and Palkia messing with space. So BDSP not using this really sucks. Also, Distortion World will always mean something to me, as I have a different opinion of it than others. It is, without any doubt, my favorite place in all of Pokemon, and nothing comes close to it.
Routes are filled with tough trainers, cool pokemon to catch, and a dragon pseudo legendary in a secret cave BEFORE the 2nd gym. Cyrus at Giratina is a tough fight. Crobat, Gyarados, Houndoom, Weavile. One of the few pokemon games that isnt afraid to give ai trainers final stage evolutions.
omg! I remember as a lil girl staying up late to watch Diamond & Pearl cartoon on tv, I was obsessed with Piplup. Years later I tried playing Diamond on my DS but I guess i was too young and the game felt too slow.. I liked it but I needed more. I didn't even know Platinum keeps most of the story from DP and adds to it. I'm just waiting on a new 3ds to arrive so I guess i know what my first game will be. So excited, this seems much more alive but I guess thats why its also so popular
I grew up with the Diamond and Pearl anime too. Pokémon diamond on DS actually had a fundamental issue being functionally slow (like literally the game ran slow). I really think you’ll like some of the other games in the franchise
Gen 4 and Pokémon Platinum will forever be goated, Arguably the peak of Pokémon handheld games (not to take nothing from either Gen 3 or Gen 5) But Gen 4 was the peak of competitive Pokémon, you had your grind, you had to EV train for the battle tower, the progression and game was slow enough to keep you busy for days and days, the new evolutions for Gen 2 and 3 Pokémon were badass, Pokémon decide was at its highest, and this season of the Pokémon anime was some of the best we had too The soundtrack was gorgeous The map layout was cool and had pretty regions And the story was fucking cool And Platinum had such a cool way of intricating Pokémon from Gens 1-4 throughout the region Gen 4 Forever ❤️
I imagine the reason this video doesn’t have ten times as many views is because people read the title and just went “yes…yes it is” and continued scrolling
If pokemon platinum has million number of fans i am one of them . if pokemon platinum has ten fans i am one of them. if pokemon platinum have only one fan and that is me . if pokemon platinum has no fans, that means i am no more on the earth . if world against the pokemon platinum, i am against the world.
I might get this game this year for my 3dd because I will get Pokémon diamond and pearl and platinum for my 3ds on eBay because I’m saving my money to get it.
I've seen people say Platinum doesn't have good fire type variety but then they praise Emerald. I'm sorry, but Infernape, Magmortar, Houndoom, Flareon and Rapidash is a far better fire type roster than Blaziken, Camerupt, Torkoal, Magcargo and Ninetales.
You know what would be cool? If someone did a no commentary longplay of Pokemon Platinum (post game included) with the Pokemon Paul uses. Torterra, Ursaring, Electivire, Weavile, Honchkrow, Ninjask, Gliscor, Magmortar, Hariyama, Nidoking, Aggron, Gastrodon (East Sea), Drapion, Froslass, Gyarados, Garchomp and Metagross. You can even name the player Paul too.
been a fan since gen 2, and i always play the third version since my first game was crystal. this game holds a special place in my heart bcos it is the one that made me fell in love with pokemon so much. giratina is my fav legendary and sinnoh, though not my fav region definitely holds a special place in my heart.❤❤❤
Jacob you got my attention bro platinum was for me my first and most beloved generation that mostly came because i love the world building with arceus palkia and dialga and other things like unown, maybe a bad opinion but i always saw the hm’s as a means to keep you going around the region and have to wait before you acces certain places like with surf so I didn’t hate it so much of course if it was like a system where you don’t have to sacrifice a pokemon slot and like if you have a pokemon in you storage that knows the hm you need you can summon it just for that purpose something like that may would’ve been better but now i got to watch a bunch more Pokemon videos from your channel for sure
This game was my childhood. I went straight from firered to platinum, completely missing Emerald and Diamond/Pearl. I think BW2 is probably objectively better, but platinum is very special to me
@@crustyboyjosh2947 it was a coincidence that we were making the same type of video at the same time, but i spoke with him to say if it was okay to keep going with mine, and he said yes. Believe it or not, most ideas aren't unique!!! WOW!!!
I have to say that the original sinnoh games get too much hate, i just played through pearl and it was a very enjoyable experience, yes it does have it’s downsides but so does any game and i would say it’s much better than what people make it out to be
Platinum was my Intro to Pokémon and gaming and to me its the definitive Sinnoh experience. Not Gen 4 experience as to me thats Platinum with Heart Gold and Soul Silver.
The only thing that disappoints me about Platinum is you can’t get Misdrevious, Murkrow, Glameow and Stunky which is crazy. I traded Murkrow & Misdrevious from HeartGold but the other two I won’t be able to get.
Nobody talks about it but in platinum you can use the start button as the x button. You dont know how QoL is this for me. Should have been in every game since.
They try too hard, gen 3 did it more better than gen 4 I like diamond better than this, I don’t care if it’s slow. Platinum do too much for the story it’s fine to add more Pokemon but the story is completely unnecessary Who care understand the main villain story. But one thing I like about this game is the post game that’s all Gen 3 use both evil teams and you need to stop both of them now that’s make more sense. Platinum just added too much to the story but the game is little harder The reason why I love diamond than platinum is that the story is simple to follow and I easily speed run the game. Platinum just slow it down by add more stuff And they ruined some of the gym puzzle that really got me mad
I think Gen 4 was overrated. Black and white series clears and then you also got top tier Gen 2 remakes as well on the DS. I think Gen 4 is good but I don’t understand the top tier rankings it sometimes gets
Before watching this, as a 20ish year old lady who has played it through about 10 or so times as a kid and just recently went through and finished it again, no. It isn't as good as I thought it was. And in fact, barring the unfinished and inconplete nature of gen 8 and 9, I thoroughly enjoyed those games more this year.
I know this video is for content, but did you even TRY to play this game? You didn’t try catching a Shinx OR a Starly, by eterna forest you only had your starter and an HM slave smh you didn’t even try to get more Pokémon by the 2nd gym aside from Gligar and it disappoints me, Platinum had much a variety of Pokémon in every region from Gen 1 to Gen 4 if you knew where to look and you only had a bidoof and your starter smh
I simply despised gen 4 just too long and too boring, leveling up pokemon takes forever I'd rather play gen 1-3 and skip gen 4 bc its just soooooooooo bad

i'm a simple girl, i see sinnoh games and i give a like.
Before even watching my answer will always be, yes.

The last complete mainline game
I'd give that that to Unova, myself
Nah gen 5 definitely was good, I'm an advid lover of BW over B2W2 but you can't ignore how much B2W2 improved on BWs design
As a gen 4 fanboy, gen 5 might be better
USUM in total offers more than platinum
You must know! Why can't I see the dialogue!? Gee I wonder!

“MyHell” is a fitting name for Giratina lol. I had so much trouble catching it, I honestly should’ve used a master ball too
dude fr. 😭
Nah gotta save that for that mespirit that won't fuckin stay still
That Purugly fight used to fuck me up back in the day
Gen 4 and Pokémon Platinum will forever be goated,
Arguably the peak of Pokémon handheld games (not to take nothing from either Gen 3 or Gen 5)

The soundtrack was gorgeous
The map layout was cool and had pretty regions
And the story was fucking cool
And Platinum had such a cool way of intricating Pokémon from Gens 1-4 throughout the region
Gen 4 Forever ❤️
PEAK POKEMON GAME
PEAK

@@makaioshin-xviiisama835 I got a bunch!
Before I finish this video, I will not accept any critic on my favourite Nintendo DS / Pokémon game.
i liked it so that’s good
i pronounce hearthome city , heartworm city. hahaha . i saw a cat up for adoption once sneaze out a worm. it was putrid. hahaha.
@@FantasyZoneGaming LOL WHAT
Yep. I love this game ❤️💙🥹
This game was my childhood. I went straight from firered to platinum, completely missing Emerald and Diamond/Pearl. I think BW2 is probably objectively better, but platinum is very special to me
YES IT IS THE UNDISPUTED GOAT!🗣🗣🗣
🔥🔥🔥
Never thought id hear someone say platinum is underrated lo, sick vid tho!
THANKS!
Just played Luminescent Platinum it was surprisingly good
I played the french version (pokemon platine) coz it was cheaper to buy than the regular american version, despite that, amazing game
Did you take inspiration from echonox’s video?
a little but I was making this video even before him
@@JacobCruisebruh the intro and thumbnails are the exact same what 😭

You should review the fan game insurgence, it’s really good and has delta Pokémon before regional variations
Nobody talks about it but in platinum you can use the start button as the x button. You dont know how QoL is this for me. Should have been in every game since.
Yes, no video needed next question.
Good vid
thanks
They try too hard, gen 3 did it more better than gen 4
I like diamond better than this, I don’t care if it’s slow.
Platinum do too much for the story it’s fine to add more Pokemon but the story is completely unnecessary
Who care understand the main villain story.
But one thing I like about this game is the post game that’s all
Gen 3 use both evil teams and you need to stop both of them now that’s make more sense.
Platinum just added too much to the story but the game is little harder
The reason why I love diamond than platinum is that the story is simple to follow and I easily speed run the game.
Platinum just slow it down by add more stuff
And they ruined some of the gym puzzle that really got me mad
this is just wrong 😭
@@JacobCruise Not use to platinum that all. Still playing the game
Damn you didn't even TRY to make this video different from Echonox's lmfao 😭
lol I was making it before him and he finished his first 😭 we literally talked
I think Gen 4 was overrated. Black and white series clears and then you also got top tier Gen 2 remakes as well on the DS. I think Gen 4 is good but I don’t understand the top tier rankings it sometimes gets
Idk how you got that high of level with your infernape but then again I usually use torterra
4:10 why didn't u just catch one and soft reset if its not the one u want?
Before watching this, as a 20ish year old lady who has played it through about 10 or so times as a kid and just recently went through and finished it again, no. It isn't as good as I thought it was.

how can I emulate platinum?
i use desmume emulator
W video
This is the biggest grift of all time istg
grift?
I know this video is for content, but did you even TRY to play this game? You didn’t try catching a Shinx OR a Starly, by eterna forest you only had your starter and an HM slave smh you didn’t even try to get more Pokémon by the 2nd gym aside from Gligar and it disappoints me,

god forbid i play a pokemon game how i want to play
@@JacobCruise 😂 that’s fine but catching a variety of Pokémon is still an essential part of all Pokémon games 😭
Unpopular take
Platinum wasn’t that good?
Gen 5 games better though…
I simply despised gen 4 just too long and too boring, leveling up pokemon takes forever I'd rather play gen 1-3 and skip gen 4 bc its just soooooooooo bad
u literally get more exp in this game
Horse shit take
no
how
