The latest game that the talented team over at Smosh Games have tackled with Honest Games Trailers is Pokemon Diamond & Pearl for the Nintendo DS. Prepare for an honest and amusing take of the two fan favourites. It has been one of their most requested titles, so be sure to give it a watch!
This is not news in the least, but still funny.
Wait, Diamond and Pearl are considered fan favorites? Wow, I am definitely in the minority. Gen 4 was my least favorite in the series. I personally find Gen 2 the best. It took everything that made Gen 1 great and expanded upon it.
I find Gen 4 to be decent, imo. Gen 5 is my favorite in terms of being a good game, but Gen 3 will most likely stay my nostalgic favorite Pokemon game. Gen 2 is also close to Gen 5 for me. (Don’t get me started on Gen 6 though…)
I don’t get it either. Gen 4 is my favorite gen, but Diamond/Pearl were terrible games. Platinum fix everything that was wrong with it, and Heart Gold/Soul Silver are the best games in the franchise so far.
Yea, Gen 2 is missing a lot of awesome mons and moves and other stuff I like from the newer games but I find the newer games too convoluted and broken. Plus Gen 2 has stadium 2 which despite being limited by n64 hardware has the best battle animations and sound effects in the franchise. Give us a Gen 6 stadium remake and maybe I’ll pick up Gen 6 again
Diamond was boring as hell
I still miss the Pokétch.
Geez man, Nintendo has been really lackluster with the announcements. Where’s the exciting stuff?!
gamefreak, ANNOUNCE THE NEW GAME AND RELEASE IT ALREADY, THE FANS HAVE BEEN WAITING TO LONG -.-.
I’m reading Console Wars right now, very interesting and humorous book, I suddenly understand a whole lot more about Nintendo’s marketing strategy, and of course, am getting a look into the long gone golden years of Sega.
This comment is rated H for honest. Nintendo IS a toy company that predates the invention of video games and confirmed sometime this year they never stopped being one. They consider their video games as one of their toylines.
Ahh, Pokémon Diamond. My first Pokémon game I played, loved, was addicted to, then didn’t care about ever playing another afterwards. Weirdest thing that ever happened to me. I bought and played Pokémon White for a while, but I just wasn’t feeling it. I couldn’t get into it. Then I bought Pokémon White Version 2 and never even played at all (I am a collector after all). I attempted to play Pokémon Emerald, but couldn’t take any more. They all felt too much like the same thing again and again. How could this series have stayed so phenomenally popular for so many years?
They stay popular because there’s always a new generation of kids to get into them, but I know what you mean. I grew up with the originals, red and blue, and loved them. I can’t tell you how many times I played through those games. 2nd gen was my favorite. I never got into gen 3 (never had a gba) and as a result any gen after that. I did play through black though and tried to go back and play the others, but I never got back into them. They’re just too similar. And moreover I just don’t have the time to do what I really want to do in those games: catch em’ all. Back in the days where you only had 151 to catch, the task was much more managable and realistic. I don’t have time to hunt down a billion plus creatures.
I make it through the franchise because I like collecting the Pokemon. Right now, I’ve got almost every single Pokemon with a few mythic Pokemon escaping my grasp because GameFreak barely gives us outside of Japan a chance to collect the ones only available through fucking events. And half the time the event usually forces you to go see a Pokemon movie in theatres.
“Justin Beaver” LOL!
why is a Smosh video newsworthy?
It was freaking hilarious, that’s why!
Great video lmao I agree with it 100 percent. Too bad for the fans that are Gna b mad at this lol
Diamond & Pearl were pretty mediocre to my recollection. It wasn’t til Platinum that 4th gen of Pokemon got good because Heartgold & Soulsilver released the next year.
