Pokémon Platinum

Pokémon Platinum is a role-playing game with adventure elements and an enhanced version of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. Played from a top-down perspective, it has the player explore the Sinnoh region across towns, routes, and caves, catching and training Pokémon and battling them in turn-based combat. The core goals involve building a team, challenging Gym Leaders, and completing the Pokédex. This version adds new areas, expanded online features for trading and battling, and gives the Legendary Pokémon Giratina and its Distortion World a central role. It connects with other games in the generation to trade and transfer Pokémon. The player picks Turtwig, Chimchar or Piplup as a first Pokémon and stops the plans of Team Galactic. The Distortion World is a place where gravity works differently. Giratina appears in a new Origin Forme there. After the Pokémon League, the player can visit the Battle Frontier, a set of facilities with battle challenges.
