Why does pretty much everyone have pokemon diamond not pearl?

Question

I think im going to get pearl and i would like to know why ppl are getting diamond

Answer 1

i have absolutely no idea....i guess people like dialga better than palkia? i got diamond because they did not have pearl in stock. i suggest you get pearl, it'll make you special :)

Answer 2

People think that Diamonds themselves are better than pearls. But I have Pearl, and I think it's superior to Diamond. Definatley get Pearl.

cuz diamonds r more valuble and expenisive

Answer 4

people think dialga looks cooler but palkia owns + it has more dragon type attacks.  in diamond you can dig up cranidos fossils but in pearl you can dig bastiodon fossils

Answer 5

I think it's because pokemon diamond looks and sounds much better....

but I choose pearl, because EVERYONE else I knew choose diamond

Answer 6

I have pearl and diamond and people seem to admire that dialga isnt pink like palkia. I also found that diamond has better version exclusive pokemon.

Rather then listing the different available pokemon, heres a link where you can see how much cooler the diamond pokemon are :P

Answer 7

Diamond = Dialga

Pearl = Palka or something like that

Dialga is dragon/steel so those types r powerful

Palka is dragon/water (i think)

Dialga owns!!  

Answer 8

I personally go Diamond cuz I heard the Pearl version was more directed to girls. After playing the game and talking to multiple people, i found that it was simply not true. You SHOULD buy Pearl cuz less people have it. That way, you'll have better chances of finding people who will trade diamond-exclusive pokemon to you.
