Pokémon Diamond Version
Pokémon Diamond Version
Pokémon Diamond Version, développé par Game Freak et publié par Nintendo, est un jeu de rôle d'aventure et de stratégie au tour par tour sorti sur Nintendo DS le 28 septembre 2006 au Japon. Le titre relate le parcours d'un jeune dresseur qui, après avoir choisi un Pokémon parmi Turtwig, Chimchar ou Piplup, parcourt la région de Sinnoh pour remplir son Pokédex et devenir champion de la Ligue en affrontant huit champions d'arène puis la team Galactic, avant de défier la championne Cynthia. Le jeu introduit la connexion Internet via le Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, 107 nouvelles espèces et la nécessité d'échanger avec la version Pearl pour compléter le Pokédex. D'une durée principale de 41 heures et de 271 heures en complétion, il obtient une note moyenne de 81,18. La presse a salué l'expérience proposée, Thunderbolt évoquant l'un des plus grands titres de la DS et l'Official Nintendo Magazine UK jugeant l'aventure fantastique malgré sa parenté avec les opus précédents, tandis que certains joueurs sur Metacritic y voient un must absolu comparable à Pokémon Pearl.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Easily one of the greatest titles on the DS...Between exploring the massive towns, wandering through the multi-tiered wastelands, and challenging legions of trainers, you’ll enjoy a lengthy adventure that no other DS game can boast. »
« As long as you don't mind it being effectively a fancy remake of past Pokemon adventures, Diamond and Pearl provide a fantastic experience with great Wi-Fi features. [July 2007, p.70] »
« There’s a lot to do in Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl, which looks as good as a top-down Pokemon game is going to get for some time. It also benefits more than any other sequel in the series from a predecessor due to online capabilities. [JPN Import] »
« Indeed, it's somewhat ironic that only now, with the integration of Wi-Fi, Pokémon has become the community game it's always pretended to be. Casting a retrospective eye upon the series, it would appear that every game since the series started in 1995 has just been a level up. This, finally, is the real deal. [JPN Import] »
« An extremely well conceived game. While some may complain that it is too much like past titles, it's hard not to get drawn into the charm and depth of the universe. »
« These are the best games in the series by a considerable margin, and should provide you with entertainment for weeks to come, especially if you're planning on playing "Pokémon Battle Revolution" for the Nintendo Wii. »
« Overall, the better graphics, easier controls, and clearer visuals help make this Pokémon game the best in the bunch. The great Wi-Fi connection modes also make this a must have for any Pokémon fan who may own too many versions already. »
« Armed with a host of new Pokemon, an expansive new world, and the functionality of the DS, Diamond and Pearl constitute the ultimate Pokemon experience. [June 2007, p.102] »

« Hust as good as pokemon pearl, which is my favorite game of all time. The exclusive pokemon on this one are as good as the exclusive ones in Pearl. Must play. »
« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« The worst game of the series, bad pokedex (the distribution is trash, so everyone uses the same teams) bad leveling curve (cynthia is 10 lvl above the rest of the elite four), really slow gameplay, full of bugs and a boring story »
« Pokemon Diamond was the first Pokemon game I played, and I can say that it's still one of my favorites later on. The weird thing is it's been long enough since I first played this that I can't remember what my first thoughts were, but I randomly remember little pieces of random parts of this game now and then. I also had a bit of fun with the underground mining and secret base games. I also remember this game fondly due to beating the champion on my first attempt due being lucky with the Garchomp, which I think of every time someone talks about Cynthia. Though it does feel a bit weird playing again later on, I still think it's a good game, and it helped shape my perspective on Pokemon for my future. »
« A fking good game, almost a perfect game, but the slowness killed it all. If this 4th gen (diamond, pearl, soulsilver and heartgold) wasn't so slow, I think it will have gained much more good fame. »
